Quick Quips – 2/9/10

Lie of the Day from lauraingraham.com: “We have promoted the pursuit of a bipartisan approach to health reform from day one.” - Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, claiming Democrats have included Republicans in the health care reform process.

Party of 'No'...and Proud > No We Won't [This is one of the best enumeration of conservative principles that I have seen! – JS]

Craig Becker Defeated - People are policy and even the Dems were running from this BHO policy!

SLIPPERY SLOPE Watch! Will the White House demand that every business “justify” its price increases?

President Obama's Health-Care Summit - The President wants a Republican foil at The Wall Street Journal:

  If there is ever a contest to pick which word has done the most damage to people's thinking, and to actions to carry out that thinking, my nomination would be the word "fair." It is a word thrown around by far more people than have ever bothered to even try to define it.
  This mushy vagueness may be a big handicap in logic but it is a big advantage in politics. All sorts of people, with very different notions about what is or is not fair, can be mobilized behind this nice-sounding word, in utter disregard of the fact that they mean very different things when they use that word.
