You can bet that the State of the Union, like today’s Press Conference, will be used to vilify Republicans in order to crash through the debt ceiling. You can also bet that, in the interests of a fair and balanced approach, that this time around he will praise the Supreme Court for what Robert’s did.

On New Year’s Eve the dysfunction Senate, that cannot even create a budget, with Republican help, has agreed to a bargain far removed from what the President ran on which was one dollar in tax revenue and three dollars in spending cuts. No matter how they delay the inevitable debt bubble, that they keep growing, [...]

A host of 20th and 21st Century movies, (like the Terminator movies,) depict future worlds where intelligent machines outwit and destroy human beings. Although science fiction has a basis in reality, it is often reality, which outperforms science fiction. At one time in the history of mankind events of momentous change did occur based [...]
In 1895, long before the Great Society, long before the New Deal and over a decade before the 16th Amendment established the progressive income tax H.G. Wells wrote the science fiction novella, the “Time Machine” that portrayed a futuristic society where the human race had evolved into two species, where one still resembled the humans we [...]
The President’s speech told us more about him than he did about us. It reveals why he hates us and why he would have us loathe ourselves. Altruism, sculpted by guilt and cynicism, is the weapon of choice of any controlling mastermind. To be successful he must shift virtue from doing something for oneself to [...]

Conservatives are now boisterously clamoring about what they once warned. Right before everyone’s eyes, nakedly stands a bunch of communist misfits approved and appointed by the mastermind and statist-in-chief, the POTUS himself. They were once his mentors, they are now his friends, and they are whom he appoints to manage the bureaucracies [...]

UTPW Presented by image consultant los angelesMark Levin Gives Unvarnished Truth
MARK LEVIN: We conservatives, we do not accept bipartisanship in the pursuit of tyranny. Period. We will not negotiate the terms of our economic and political servitude. Period. We will not abandon our child to a dark and bleak future. We will not accept a fate that is alien to the legacy we inherited from every single future generation in this country. We will not accept social engineering by politicians and bureaucrats who treat us like lab rats, rather than self-sufficient human beings. There are those in this country who choose tyranny over liberty. They do not speak for us, 57 million of us who voted against this yesterday, and they do not get to dictate to us under our Constitution.
We are the alternative. We will resist. We're not going to surrender to this. We will not be passive, we will not be compliant in our demise. We're not good losers, you better believe we're sore losers! A good loser is a loser forever. Now I hear we're called 'purists.' Conservatives are called purists. The very people who keep nominating moderates, now call us purists the way the left calls us purists. Yeah, things like liberty, and property rights, individual sovereignty, and the Constitution, and capitalism. We're purists now. And we have to hear this crap from conservatives, or pseudo-conservatives, Republicans.

But it is not there, therefore, I am not denying that it is.

Snyder pushes to extend Medicaid to 470,000 Michiganders -- 'care for people who need it'
Snyder said Wednesday that he unconditionally supports expanding the state's Medicaid rolls by roughly 470,000 people. There are 1.9 million people receiving benefits now.
"We're all here to support expanding Medicaid," Snyder said at a news conference called by a large coalition of groups that support the expansion. "We're moving forward with care for people who need it."
Editorial: Snyder does right and healthy thing by backing Medicaid expansion
The ever-illogical argument that insuring more people will actually cost less. "But health care providers and advocates for the uninsured argue that the state will actually save money -- as much as $1 billion in the first decade -- if fewer residents have to rely on expensive emergency room facilities to address non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries."
Susan J. Demas: Will Tea Party Republicans fight Rick Snyder on expanding Medicaid under Obamacare?
Susan Dumass is really quite pedestrian. "The only thing standing in between 450,000 low-income Michiganders and health insurance is Tea Party Republicans' deep-seated hatred of Obamacare."

In a switch, GOP governors back expanding Medicaid
This week, Michigan’s Rick Snyder became the sixth GOP governor to propose expanding his state’s health insurance program to cover more low-income residents, in line with the Democratic administration’s strong recommendation.
'Obamacare,' distrust of federal government heat up debate over Medicaid expansion in Michigan
Now that he's made the decision, Snyder must sell the plan to the state legislature, where some members of his own party have repeatedly attempted to distance themselves from the faintest whiff of "Obamacare."
- I can find neither solace or comfort in government. I cannot find hope nor light among those pretending to take my best interest to heart. I cannot worship or revere another human being because there are none alive that can instill my faith. Give me the One God; the One Who had created the heavens and earth and had purposefully breathed life into me. The One Who dwells in the secret place and watches over me and always keeps me company when all others abandoned me. But for Him I would have no purpose in this life; thank you Dear God.
A Constitutional Republic or a Socialist Democracy?
The recent election loss at a time when every economic indicator over the previous four years should have catapulted Romney to victory, started me to seriously think; not think about Romney’s failures, not about what the conservative movement should have done or about two parties which were once upon a time closer at their furthest distance than [...]
