Student Loans Bill
Via NRO, Senator Lamar Alexander (R-Ten) goes after the attachment to the health care bill: “Up to now, 15 out of 19 million student loans were private loans, backed by the government,” Alexander says. “Now we’re going to borrow half-a-trillion from China to pay for billions in new loans.

Well Take That, Mike Brown
Apparently the right to vote is, indeed in the Constitution, contra legendary Emerson professor Mike Brown. According to the greatest legal mind of our time: In addition to energy production, which she called one of her favorite subjects, Palin was focused on getting people out to reverse what she called the leftist direction of the […]
