Peanut Gallery: The primary beneficiaries of school choice are the poor. The Democrat party is the party of the poor. Therefore, the Democrat party supports school choice – right? Wrong – the Democrat party is the primary opponent of school choice; the Republican party is the primary supporter of school choice. Therefore, the Republican party is really the party of the poor – right? Right.

Will House Conservatives Cave? | Redstate
Peanut Gallery: The worst part of all this is that politicians talk the “conservative” talk to get elected and then do what works for them and their friends once they’re in office… e.g. Lindsay Graham. They figure that voters will forget all about it when November comes around… and they talk the “conservative” talk again. It is maddening!!!!!

“Since February of 2009 when President Barack Obama began his aggressive push for stimulus into the American economy, he focused on one core area — infrastructure.
“In fact, in his stimulus speech before Congress in 2009, his States of the Union in 2010, 2011, and 2012, and his Jobs Act speech of late 2011, the President repeated referred to spending government money to create jobs to fix America’s infrastructure.
Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH), leader of the Republican Study Committee, is confirmed to be leaning toward supporting the plan. His public pronouncements that he is leaning toward supporting the plan is leading House conservatives as a whole to support this new stimulus plan — a stimulus plan to create jobs fixing and expanding America’s infrastructure.
The plan will most likely necessitate a federal bailout of the Highway Trust Fund, which is typically funded through the gas tax and is used to pay for highway projects. But Obama’s new stimulus busts the cap on the trust fund and, like social security, gets into general fund money to pay for the spending binge.”

Dick Morris: Book Review Of Ameritopia By Mark Levin
“I took Contemporary Civilization at Columbia College. It had a reading list that was a smattering of excerpts from all the great thinkers who shaped western civilization. We referred to it as the “cocktail party course.” The readings were neither long enough nor sufficiently representative of the body of work of the author to give you a real grasp of what they were saying. But they gave you enough to get by and sound erudite.
Now Mark Levin revisits these philosophers and explains how their thinking shaped the world in which we live.”

10 reasons religious conservatives love Rick Santorum – CNN Belief Blog – CNN.com Blogs
Peanut Gallery: What would you add to the list”
Here’s what I’d add – Rick Santorum starts with a fundamental Christian belief that God, as Creator, has given every human being a fundamental right to life. Why? Because every human being is created in the “image of God” and therefore has infinite dignity and value before God. And, the Santorum’s have lived this belief out in their own personal lives.
Article excerpt: “Rick Santorum’s trifecta victories Tuesday night are a good reminder of the powerful role religious conservatives play in the GOP. They fueled Santorum’s wins in Missouri, Minnesota and Colorado – and his earlier victory in the Iowa caucuses.”
