Just a question,
Why can't the democrats trot out someone who is not actually eligible for public health assistance but deserve it? As opposed to already eligible, like the Frosts and the Wilkersons.
Is it because they can't find anyone that fits that category? I mean, if I wanted to expand an entitlement program, I would find someone that would be helped by that expansion!
Plenty on this issue over at Michelle Malkin's site.

The Nobel Prize for Science Fiction
I didn't even know it existed until now.
The Goracle has finally joined the ranks of the righteous, alongside:
1. Mangari Maathai (2004), who at a press conference announcing her award told reporters she believes AIDS is the product of a bio-engineering released as a weapon of mass destruction by Western scientists to punish blacks."
2. Shirin Ebadi (2003), who defends Irans nuclear program as economically justified."
3. Jimmy "The Dhimmi" Carter (2002), an anti-Semite and co-creator of the modern Islamic Republic of Iran.
4. EX UN GenSec Kofi Annan (2001), who oversaw the UN Oil-for-Food scam keeping Saddam Hussein in power, enriching dozens of UN officials, journalists and politicians around the world, and contributing to the Iraq war.
5. Yasser Arafat (1994) bus bomber, terrorist, anti-Semite, possibly poisoned by other PLO leaders because he stood in the way of lucrative deals with Israel.
6. Mohammed Al-Baradi, head of the IAEA under who's watch Iran, North Korea, Syria et. al.? have proliferated weapons and/or pursued their nuclear dreams.
I have to go be sick now.......

Why They Hate the Neocons
Roger L. Simon has a post up at Pajamas Media about Neocons. Those of us who have been derisively lumped together with that moniker (justified or not) might find this interesting:

Victor Hanson in Iraq
I highly recommend that you read everything you can find by Victor Davis Hanson. He is as articulate in print as he is erudite. He has just been in Iraq and writing about it in his blog in three parts. This guy is really something special and his essays are always illuminating.

100 Years!!!!!!
Oh my god.....
The humiliating capitulation by my (once) cherished Chicago Cubs has caused me to doubt my faith that there is anything good in this world....
I need to find a way to excise my love for the Cubs from my heart. I feel stupid, cheap, used.....
Curse you Billy Goat!
Blurgh.......

Mission Accomplished?
Well, not quite. But here is a strikingly candid article from the left-leaning British magazine Prospect:
By any normal ethical standard, the coalition’s current project in Iraq is a just one. Britain, America and Iraq’s other allies are there as the guests of an elected government given a huge mandate by Iraqi voters under a legitimate constitution. The UN approved the coalition’s role in May 2003, and the mandate has been renewed annually since then, most recently this August. Meanwhile, the other side in this war are among the worst people in global politics: Baathists, the Nazis of the middle east; Sunni fundamentalists, the chief opponents of progress in Islam’s struggle with modernity; and the government of Iran. Ethically, causes do not come much clearer than this one.

The Rush Limbaugh "Phony Soldiers" Debacle
I'm sure everyone has heard about the manufactured brouhaha that was created by Hillary Clinton's Media Matters regarding Rush Limbaugh referring to phony soldiers as well.....um....phony soldiers. I can't add anything to the conversation that isn't stated very well by Betsy Newmark in this column.
