A special open thread today. We're helping Soldiers' Angels raise money for their Project Valour-IT campaign, which raises money for research and development of technology that supports wounded warriors in their recovery. NB has chosen to support the Marines. Your generosity is greatly appreciated (link below fold).

Jamie Dupree digs into the 42 extra pages added to...

the House health care seizure bill.

Here is one of the little gems he found within:

One thing that stood out above all else in the extra 42 pages was a brand new energy tax, which would funnel $24 billion over 10 years into health reform.

And also this:

There is also a new effort to crack down on health insurance premium increases, by starting a new federal and state review of premium price changes.

If the feds and states decide that an insurance company has gone too far, they could start a review - the ultimate punishment could be that the insurer is banned from selling policies on the health insurance exchanges that would be set up in each state.

Let's all hope (and pray) that last night's election results signal the death knell for this communist insanity.

Sunday, 4 November, 1979

As a reminder, today is the 30th anniversary of the day where Iran decided to take a whiz on the Vienna Convention and otherwise use basic international protocol as toilet paper. 

Yep, this was the day when the embassy was seized in Tehran.  I am stunned that His Majesty The Shahinshah hasn't granted full diplomatic recognition to Iran yet today.

9 November

The ninth of November is the 20th anniversary of the fall of die Mauer.  Bundeskanzler Angela Merkel invited His Majesty The Shahinshah to attend the commemoration of this anniversary of the arrival of freedom and democracy in East Germany at long last.

His Majesty The Shahinhshah's response?  "I'm too busy."

How utterly embarrassing.

Uns, Obama's refusal to attend this event...

...speaks volumes about his commitment to the concepts of freedom and liberty.

But as he said, he's too busy to bother. After all, working to reinstate a deposed communist dictator is time-consuming work.

Even if he did go, it wouldn't surprise me if he apologized to the Germans and Russians for Ronald Reagan having damaged their wall.

-And I'm only half kidding.

A caller on Rush today suggested that since Obama was denied the opportunity to speak at the Brandenburg Gate, for lack of having yet accomplished anything of note, perhaps he was once again refused for the same reason.

This is the explanation I find most plausible, rather than Obama blowing off an opportunity to look regal.

LYDSEXICS UNTIE!

Cool... I heard that gal

Cool...

I heard that gal as well that called in...the call was priceless...especially Rush's slow, thoughtful response to her.

The whole thing was really delicious all in and all...and she's right on the money.

Btw...he should have offered her a Sleep-Member Bed or something.

Re The Wall

Makes more sense to invite GHWB, and I'm sure he'd be happy to represent us.

Is "V" a swipe at Obama?

Did anyone watch the debut of "V" last night? If not, I highly recommend you do. Much like "24" showed America that we must be tough on terrorism and do what ever it takes, "V" is about an alien presence visiting Earth, promising hope and change, offering universal healthcare and cures to diseases.

The visitors are all well spoken and attractive, but their ultimate goal is to take over and uproot society. Sound familiar?

It all points to the Obama agenda, even hinting at miracle stem cell treatments.

The main characters are a female antiterrorist FBI agent and a Catholic priest -  finally moral characters we can get behind. They band together to form a resistance to the visitors.

It's worth watching, and it seems that there are some writers and producers in Hollywood that want to make a stand and a statement and are managing to do so under the noses of the mainstream media.

 It's worth watching.

Communist News Network 4th in viewers on election night

Reanalyzing those figures

The last three averaged approximately 900,000 viewers each. Let's take that as a "unit" called a "cable-viewer-night." Then the analysis would be that Fox came in 1st through 4th place, followed in order by MsNBC, H1LN1, and CNN.

~IRANIAN PROTESTERS ISSUE CHALLENGE TO OBAMA

This video is absolutely stunning.

They are chanting...

“Obama, Obama, Ya ba una,
Ya ba ma!” ------ “Obama, you are either with them [the Iranian
government] or with us [the people].

Geez, made a typo!
