    The damage has already begun


    http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opi…

    Repeal of ObamaCare can't come soon enough -- as several damaging provisions are set to take effect this year. For starters, it has effectively stopped the construction of physician-owned hospitals throughout the country.

    • You're setting yourself up for disappointment if you think it's gonna be repealed:)

    "in symbolic move"

    Well done! Nice to see lawmakers making good use of our tax dollars.

    What's next on the agenda?

    Maybe next they can symbolically repeal Social Security, pretend to overturn Roe vs Wade, and stage a mock battle where they invade Iran.

    Virginia lawmakers look to stop climate change probe

    Democratic Sens. Donald McEachin of Henrico and Chap Petersen of Fairfax County say their bills won't give blanket immunity to colleges to defraud the state, but they would curb politically motivated probes.

    I just don't see a lot of realism in the Republican agenda. At least Obama campaigned on some issues like health care reform and actually followed through on what he promised.

    What did Republicans campaign on? Shrinking government - well OK - but they instantly scaled back their goals on that to 1/4 of what they said they would, and remains to be seen if they will even achieve that.

    And repealing health care is all show. What's left?

    • there isnt any! neither is the left. i knwo its a tough paradigm to accept 1 of 2

    think about this statement. its what both parties use abettertom

    All cats are mammals
    Puddens is our pet.
    \ Our pet is a mammal.

    It sounds reasonable but isnt. They sell u this kind of logic to denounce something to there own ends and its easy to jsut accept because its close. It has the probable, and yet it isnt exactly true. Its not a axiom. More opinion. They hope your emotions will help you lean one way or the other in accepting what u want to beleive is true. Which then creates the team bias.

    • thats the swiss HC argument used

    Welfare Tab for Children of Illegal Immigrants Estimated at $600M in L.A. County


    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/…

    Welfare benefits for the children of illegal immigrants cost America's largest county more than $600 million last year, according to a local official keeping tabs on the cost. Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael Antonovich released new statistics this week showing social spending for those families in his county rose to $53 million in November, putting the county government on track to spend more than $600 million on related costs for the year -- up from $570 million in 2009.

    Protests continue outside the White House amidst the state visit of Chinese President Hu Jintao. On Wednesday, demonstrators called on Obama to press Hu on China’s treatment of Tibetans and Uyghurs.

    Tenzin Dorjee of Students for a Free Tibet: "We hope that President Obama can actually earn the Nobel Prize that he won two years ago and convince Chinese President Hu Jintao to release all the political prisoners in Tibet and in China."
