Health Care Mandate for Cough Drop Coverage

Health Care Mandate for Cough Drop Coverage

Since Sandra Fluke and her Leftist friends believe others should provide them with “medical” goods and services to which they feel entitled, perhaps we should mandate that all health care plans cover cough drops as well. Cough drops actually have a standard medicinal purpose, and they wouldn’t violate anyone’s First Amendment protections for freedom of religion the way ObamaCare’s mandate for contraception and abortifacients does. If we’re determined to toss out 200+ years of freedom anyway, why not?

Liberals Exemplify Tolerance and Respect for Women

Liberals Exemplify Tolerance and Respect for Women

Since the self-righteous and ever-tolerant Left went ballistic over the fact that Rush Limbaugh called a woman who publicly testified that she was having so much sex that it cost $1,000 a year to pay for her contraceptives a slut, we’ve shared a montage or two of some of the liberal “tolerance” and “respect for women” that goes on out there. But as time allows for more research, longer and more informative documentaries are being made available.

The Truth Behind the Unemployment Rate

The Truth Behind the Unemployment Rate

“The monthly unemployment rate has become a meaningless statistic that no longer reflects the reality of America’s economy or even the state of our nation’s employment. Shockingly, the stated rate of 8.3 percent does not include the 4.4 million Americans who have dropped out of the labor force since Obama became president. When you include the dropouts, the real Obama unemployment rate is 10.8 percent,” says Bill Wilson, President, Americans for Limited Government.

Who’s Handling Sandra Fluke?

Who’s Handling Sandra Fluke?

Bill O’Reilly believes Sandra Fluke “contraception controversy” and the media froth-fest surrounding her were manufactured by the Left to divert attention from what he calls the “disastrous” decision by the Obama Administration to force religious organizations to provide contraceptive and abortifacient products they find morally objectionable. What his investigation found was very interesting, and has ties back to the White House.

Limbaugh and the, um, Lady

Limbaugh and the, um, Lady

MSNBC’s Ed Schultz in has referred to conservative talk radio host Laura Ingraham using the same term Rush Limbaugh used concerning Sandra Fluke. Ms. Fluke recently went on Schultz’s program to criticize Limbaugh for indirectly suggesting that, in light of her admitted sexually immoral lifestyle, she was a “sl-t” (an offensive and inappropriate slang for which he has apologized). During the interview Ms. Fluke somehow failed to mention Schultz’s identical insult of Ingraham. (An inadvertent oversight, I’m sure.)

The Day Naval Warfare Changed Forever

The Day Naval Warfare Changed Forever

The Confederate iron-plated ship Merrimac destroyed two Union boats during the Civil War. The Union responded with the ironclad Monitor. The two met in battle on March 9, 1862 and made history. As President Calvin Coolidge said at the dedication of a statue to the Monitor’s designer, John Ericsson, “Naval warfare had been revolutionized.”
