The major quake that hit Massachusetts Jan. 19 has very likely buried government-owned health care reform beneath political rubble -- I hope for good. The Obama-ites never saw it coming until it was too late to stop senator-elect Scott Brown from splitting the eastern sky with a humiliating defeat of the Democratic candidate, Martha Coakley, who was a shoo-in for the empty seat left by the late Ted Kennedy.
The only thing failing faster than the Obama administration is the argument for global warming. On Jan. 20, a news story said scientists falsified a report that the Himalayan glaciers were going to melt by 2035. Just a few weeks ago, iguanas, the big green lizards in Florida, were freezing by the thousands and falling out of trees in the Sunshine State.
Environmental and liberal political activists have been trying to lower the standard of living in America for decades. Keep track of the facts as opposed to their wild exaggerations. You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make and keep you free.
