Friday night videos

With apologies to the former NBC late-night show from the 1980’s, I thought this would be a good idea to put up some of the stuff I’ve seen questioning the policies of the Messiah in the White House.

While Newt Gingrich doesn’t appear in the spot, his American Solutions Group suggests a proven solution for job creation – putting more money in the economy by lowering the tax burden on businesses.

 

That definitely contrasts with the idea of burdening business owners with the cap-and-trade energy “tax” and fining them if they don’t comply with Obamacare.

And then we have satire. The mythical “PMA Group” came up with this and the message hits home with me.

The reason this is so believable is a sad truth that money and power rule the day in Washington and all 50 state capitals. It’s my contention that reducing the size of government would make politicians more honest – after all, if there’s less of a pie to stick one’s fingers in they won’t be as tempted to, while on the other hand it’s a well-known axiom that “absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

And of course, there’s “Obamacare”. This comes from my old friends at Our Country Deserves Better. Man, they make some pointed commercials.

I don’t happen to recall his exact title, but did you notice Dick Morris was one of those cited? Didn’t he work for the Clinton Administration, purveyor of the failed Hillarycare? That tells me a lot – I know many consider him a moderate but I’m not so sure.

And then there’s the Canadian plan. We saw this last night at the Healthcare Forum I liveblogged:

Yes, it was paid for by Americans for Prosperity. Certainly naysayers will say that this is an isolated case and most Canadians are happy with their health care. But most Canadians aren’t staring at the diagnosis this woman faced either.

However, this may be my favorite video this time around. It’s Obama vs. Obama:

He’s the master of doublespeak and obfuscation, isn’t he? And to think all that most of the stimulus money has done so far is bail out a bunch of states who couldn’t otherwise balance their budgets. Even the reviled TARP program passed under a lame-duck President Bush wasn’t that audacious.

I’ll finish with this from the Center for Indvidual Freedom – unfortunately you have to follow the link. Their “Freedom Minute” is about 3 1/2 minutes long and discusses Obamacare from the organization’s point of view.

I hope you enjoyed all of the videos. Perhaps they’re not as sexy as the videos the old NBC series used to play but in the scheme of things they’re much more important.
