Shake it to the Left, Shake it to the Right

One Year After Obamacare (Part 4)
Seniors are at risk of losing access to physicians and medical care. Medicare actuaries say that the cuts built into the law will force as many as 40% of providers to eventually stop seeing Medicare patients or go bankrupt. (Grace-Marie Turner, Alex Cortes and Heather R. Higgins, WSJ, 3/7/11)

Matt the Hoople
First, we'd reduce our dependence on oil. Second, we'd create market incentives to invest in clean energy. And third, we'd raise much-needed revenue to shrink our budget deficit. As a bonus, we might eventually stop sending young Americans to die for oil in the Persian Gulf, too! (Matt Miller, Washington Post, 3/10/11)

Moonbat Matt wants higher gasoline taxes. RedStateVT responds: First, start drilling in the U.S., there is plenty of oil here. Second, there are already plenty of incentives (and subsidies) for clean energy. Third, higher taxes on gasoline will hit the working class hardest – these are the people that Matt claims to love. Fourth, American soldiers aren’t in the Middle East to steal the oil you silly man. They are there to stop the Muslims from coming to America to kill us.

The (Continuing) Education of Barack Obama
Mr. Gates made clear that the initial American troop withdrawals ordered for July by President Obama would be limited, perhaps to no more than several thousand troops. Pointedly, he told NATO that “we will not sacrifice the significant gains made to date, or the lives lost, for a political gesture.” (NYT, 3/11/11)

Barack Obama is……George Bush and Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.
