1.House Dems Cave; Set Stage For
Banning Abortion Coverage

/House Democratic leaders agreed Friday night to settle an impasse over abortion by letting the entire House vote on a proposed solution, a risky decision that could determine the fate of their trillion-dollar overhaul of the nation’s health care system/ (Can YOU believe abortion is brought up-Who is pregnant? The woman; Who will have to raise the child? The woman; Is it as health issue? YES; who should make the abortion decision? The woman; Why? because the politician and the father aren’t going to have to change one thing about their lives whether that child is born or not, but the mother will change her entire life, and just because the politician and the father all of a sudden make abortion an issue why should the mother be denied safe medical care?

2.Two Cents About COIN It has no value, says Ryan McCarl

/It may be true that, as military expert Stephen Biddle said in recent Congressional testimony, “the U.S. is an unusually experienced counterinsurgent force today,” and “the new Army/Marine counterinsurgency doctrine(Duh this new military’s problem is that they did not sign on to be the “New Military”, but the new Guard and Reserves, and when used properly aren’t the same at all.)

3.The Evil Empire It’s the US, says Paul Craig Roberts

/Soon our presidents will be as ineffective as Roman emperors in the final days of that empire.Obama is already set on the course to a one-term presidency. He promised change, but has delivered none (My question is have We learned enough to elect what this country needs?-A Ron Paul. Dennis Kucinich or Ralph Nader?)
