The Democrats paint themselves in box with Limbaugh criticism

Don Surber:

“Our troops are fighting and dying to bring to others the freedoms that many take for granted.” — Senate Plurality Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada.

Ah Democrats. Too clever by half, again. In denouncing Rush Limbaugh, Reid had to admit that in Iraq: “Our troops are fighting and dying to bring to others the freedoms that many take for granted.”

This is the same Harry Reid who in April pronounced the war in Iraq was lost.

Reid and the Democrats have a real big problem. They sold their souls to billionaires like Wes Boyd and George Soros who finance MoveOn and other front groups for rich white socialists. The Betray Us ad backfired. A poll showed 58% of the American people were disgusted with the ad, only 23% supported it.

So they manufactured a controversy. Rush Limbaugh called out the fake soldier Jesse MacBeth — who was hailed by the left as an antiwar Iraqi vet who reported wild tales of war atrocities. Rush called the guy a phony soldier. The left seized on it.

Now Reid is using his position as a Senate leader to lean on Rush’s employer to fire him. Free speech? Lefties oppose it unless it contains anti-Americanism.

...

Next will see vets who oppose the war claim that Jesse MacBeth is one of them and they will embrace a phony soldier as one of them in attacks on Rush Limbaugh.

Jules Crittenden says Limbaugh's statement has gotten Reid and Democrats to admit that we are fighting for freedom in Iraq, something they have been denying for months.

Neal Boortz talks about Media Mutters misrepresentations and fraudulent failures to disclose.

Michael Goldfarb says Democrats are attacking Limbaugh to distract from their failed surrender agenda.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
