Stupak, a Michigan pro-life Democrat (if there truly is such a thing), announced Friday that he will not seek re-election amid growing attacks from conservatives over his vote for President Obama’s health care legislation.  Stupak, who insisted he wasn’t driven out of office by Tea Partiers, said during a press conference Friday that he wanted to spend more time with his family after 18 years in the U.S. House of Representatives.  [Read More]

Silicon Valley has positioned itself as a hub for clean-technology companies. But the region isn’t doing so well when it comes to adopting alternative-energy practices, especially in solar power.

Last year, Silicon Valley’s installations of solar panels slowed compared with the rest of California. According to the 2010 Index of Silicon Valley, an annual economic report on the area, the kilowatt capacity of solar power installed in the region fell 24% in 2009 while the rest of California saw its solar capacity fulfilled.  [Read More]

WASHINGTON—The Obama administration on Tuesday unveiled a nuclear weapons strategy that establishes new, formal limits on their use, prompting criticism from both advocates of more ambitious curbs and conservatives who questioned the decision to alter decades of bipartisan consensus on how to deter enemy attacks.

The new policy narrows the range of threats the Pentagon will seek to deter with nuclear weapons. Because of advances in missile defense and conventional weapons, the new policy states that the U.S. no longer will target most non-nuclear states, even those that threaten use of chemical and biological weapons.  [Read More]

The Obama Administration has yet again acted against the interests of Americans.  In the midst of conflict between the likes of Iran and North Korea, to name a few, Obama openly chooses to fundamentally change the nuclear policy of the United States?  Not Good.  If you ask me, it looks like that “we’ll open our hand if you unclench your fist” crap isn’t cutting the mustard.  If the President would stop dancing around like the liberal sugarplum king and  take care of business the right way, maybe his ears wouldn’t burn as much.

Democrats finally fulfilled one of President Obama’s pet-projects late Sunday night by ramming an unwanted healthcare bill down the throats of each and every American, yet they continue to overlook the biggest consequence of their bribes and backroom deals which will haunt them for decades to come.

Liberals, now the owner of the healthcare system, will be held responsible for every failure and malcontent that occurs.  Whether problems arise six months from now or 3.5 years from now, Americans will no longer find themselves complaining under their breath about alleged swindles by insurance companies.  Whether its the high monthly premiums, the expensive medications, or a multitude of other personal issues regarding treatment, the Democratic Party has chosen to take sole responsibility and ferment their image as the party of “Big Brother.”

No Republican will be blamed for this looming health care breakdown as they unanimously opposed the legislation and called numerous times for a scrapping and re-writing of the proposed bills floating around Congress.  Obama, Pelosi, and Reid may be sipping champagne with the Kennedys now, but I can assure you they will be crying in their beer come election night.

BEIJING— The Associated Press reports Britain’s foreign secretary is in China to lobby for further nuclear sanctions on Iran and will seek to smooth rancor with Beijing over climate change talks and the execution of a British drug smuggler thought to be mentally ill.

David Miliband’s visit is a further step in the push by Britain, the U.S. and others to persuade China to drop its opposition to a fourth round of sanctions to pressure Iran to suspend its uranium enrichment program.  [Read More]

Coincidentally, when it comes to important national security issues, President Obama’s mouth continues to bark up the wrong tree.  The UK are trying to persuade the Chinese to join their efforts all the while President Obama is all too concerned with taking over 1/8 of the U.S. economy through the healthcare debacle, owning as many motor companies as possible, and attacking Israel (his overwhelming ally in the Middle East).

Liberals would have you believe the President doesn’t want to piss off the Chinese due to our massive debt with them.  Yet the President has not provided an economic recovery of any kind which would play largely to the benefit of China.  One wonders whether China will be willing to deliver the 4th round of UN “sanctions” on Iran and hereby “bailout” President Obama who is looking like a pill-bug rolling on its back unable to cope with reality.  This 4th “slap on the wrist” may have further implications than just the possibility of nuclear warfare.  Are the Chinese willing to bailout Obama who is too scared to take a stance in the Middle East?

Wait, oh yea, I forgot, socialized medicine is WAY more important than national security. Liberals clearly would rather have everyone die equally (under nuclear attack that is) than not pass this government takeover.  Oh the irony.  I predict they would also encourage paying your taxes early as to fund the very program none of us will ever partake in.  Nothing wrong with this ideology… clearly.

Iran announced Sunday that it has started a new production line of highly accurate, short range cruise missiles, which would add a new element to the country’s already imposing arsenal.

Gen. Ahmad Vahidi told Iranian state TV that the cruise missile, called Nasr 1, would be capable of destroying targets up to 3,000 tons in size.  The minister said the missile can be fired from ground-based launchers as well as ships, but would eventually be modified to be fired from helicopters and submarines.

Western powers are already concerned about Iran’s military capabilities, especially the implications of its nuclear program. The U.S. and some of its allies, as well as the International Atomic Energy Agency, fear Iran is trying to produce nuclear weapons.  [Read More]

American bomb disposal experts in Iraq say few people understood what they did.
