Audio archives for this show:
This week on Backbone Radio, we’re going to talk about the intersection of politics and morality, as well as the message of this week’s special elections in New York and Nevada. We’ll also briefly discuss this coming week’s possible UN vote on recognizing a Palestinian state, perhaps one of the most disastrous moves we’ve seen even in decades of Middle East disfunctionality.
Televangelist Pat Robertson made news this week by suggesting that it is OK for a man to divorce a wife who has been afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease because the disease “is a kind of death.” I’ve yet to find anyone who agrees with Robertson, but we’ll take on the topic on Backbone Radio.
The media is going crazy over the last Republican debate, in particular the moment when Ron Paul was asked by Wolf Blitzer whether uninsured patients should be allowed to die and someone in the audience yelled “yeah.” The left has pounced, calling Tea Party members cruel, uncompassionate, and worse. But are we really our brothers’ keepers? And even if we’re not, does that mean that Americans would allow other Americans to die?
And at 7 PM, we’ll talk with Bryan Preston of Pajamas Media about this week’s special elections. Do the Republican victories mean that “the age of Obama is over”, or are we reading too much into these individual situations. We’ll also talk about the Jewish vote in 2012.
Please join me by listening to (and calling in to) this week’s Backbone Radio program from 5 PM to 8 PM on 710 AM KNUS in Denver and 1460 AM KZNT in Colorado Springs.

Quin Hillyer: Deep Corruption at the Obama Justice Department
by Rossputin | 5:24 am, September 17, 2011
The drumbeat of Obama administration corruption continues undimmed, despite the negligent lack of amplification by the “mainstream” media. This article by Quin Hillyer at the American Spectator regarding the horror show at the Department of Justice is a must read. Be prepared, it will make you angry:

The Candidates Return to Capis..er..Iowa
by Joshua Sharf | 6:05 pm, September 16, 2011
And in the due course of time, every four years, presidential candidates return to Iowa. As a service to readers, I’m trying to keep an eye on the Council Bluffs calendar (and Sioux City on Sundays), so I can sneak over and record as many events as I can. While we see the debates, it’s [...]
In Defense of the Political Insult
by Eileen McGuire-Mahony | 4:31 pm, September 16, 2011
It is one thing to allow some behavior legally and another altogether to smile upon it in polite society. Trying to legislate manners is as stupid and dangerous as trying to lower the murder rate via cotillion lessons.
Good News to End the Week: Indiana Choice Program Growing at Record Pace

The Saul Alinsky Connection: Obama’s Unprincipled Class Warfare Threatens the Nation

Opinion is Opinion, News is News
by Jon Caldara | 10:42 am, September 16, 2011
Senior fellow and super-economist Dr. Paul Prentice recently wrote a letter to the editor that was published in the Colorado Springs Gazette. In it, he raises two important points: one, that there is a meaningful difference between opinion and news. Second, that there are more schools of economics out there than just Keynesian and ultra-Keynesian. [...]

Watching AttackWatch Attacks
by Rossputin | 5:38 am, September 16, 2011
You have to hand it to the Obama Administration when it comes to consistency: They are singularly skilled when it comes to refusing to learn from their own failures. No, I’m not talking about their cult-like belief in “green jobs” despite a mountain of evidence that those jobs only exist when taxpayers are forced to incinerate money to subsidize them. (Actually, that’s an interesting thought: Could we end up generating more power for the nation if, instead of giving half a billion dollars to a solar panel company, we just burned five hundred million one dollar bills? But I digress…)
And I’m not talking about Obama’s latest stimulus plan. Oops, we can’t say “stimulus” anymore; it’s a “jobs” plan, despite every similar policy of this president having failed spectacularly to produce a job. (Don’t forget, however, to be oh-so-thankful for “jobs saved.”)
The newest and simultaneously funny and frightening Obama reprise is the launch of an Obama campaign web site called AttackWatch.com, designed to “Get the facts (and) Fight the smears.” According to ABC News, “Obama for America national field director Jeremy Bird said the site offers ‘new resources to fight back,’ including policy issue pages that fact check statements by Obama’s Republican opponents with links to ‘evidence’ to back them up.”
Before getting to the early reaction to AttackWatch.com, a little history is in order:

Electric cars have many problems but this is one that’s easily overlooked.
On Wednesday, Jan. 26 a major snowstorm hit Washington D.C. Ten-mile homeward commutes took four hours. If there had been a million electric cars on American roads at the t…

The Games Played with Taxes
by PerlStalker | 10:02 pm, September 15, 2011
Peter Blake has a great article in the inherent unfairness of “tax increment financing”. Here’s a taste.
If you blow into town to launch a new business, perhaps you can cajole the city council to designate the land you want as “blighted.” That …

by admin | 4:57 pm, September 15, 2011
An interesting juxtaposition, with a man holding a sign asking for help in front of the Colorado Democratic Party headquarters on 8th and Santa Fe, and the campaign signs of various Democratic candidates, including the iconic Obama “HOPE” poster: “NEED WORK PLEASE HELP! GOD BLESS”
New Research Adds to “Master’s Bump” Blowout; Time for More Performance Pay
by Eddie | 3:36 pm, September 15, 2011
How about a little “dog bites man” story for education policy geeks? Hey, you can’t drive the point home often enough when you’re making the case for education transformation! A new issue brief for the Manhattan Institute by Marcus Winters (now one of Colorado’s own) highlights the unsurprising but important research he conducted along with [...]
As if Solyndra isn’t bad enough
by Rossputin | 1:34 pm, September 15, 2011
The Solyndra fiasco is all over the news, as well it should be, with political pressure apparently be brought to bear on the Office of Management and Budget to approve a more than half-billion dollar loan to a solar panel company which has now gone bankrupt, incinerating those hundreds of millions of dollars of our money with it.
But a story which is just as troubling is now being reported (strangely, since it’s a left-leaning site) by the Daily Beast: In short, the White House pressured a four-star general to alter his testimony to Congress to make it sound as if he and the Department of Defense were more supportive of a particular company’s technology than they are. The company, LightSquared, is run by Phil Falcone, a nouveau riche billionaire (who made his money shorting sub-prime mortgage securities, but has since turned in a disastrous performance as a hedge-fund manager), who is a major donor to Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.
According to the Daily Beast article, “Falcone, his wife, and the CEO of LightSquared, Sanjiv Ahuja, have given more than $90,000 to the Democratic causes since they applied for the license. Falcone also has made a smattering of donations to Republicans.”
The main way in which this is different from Solyndra is that LightSquared’s technology still has not been proven not to interfere with other radio signals, in particular GPS signals, which are essential to our national security as well as to many consumer functions, such as vehicle navigation systems. At least with Solyndra, we know our risk is limited to money. I’m not saying that LightSquared’s technology is unsafe. It might be perfectly safe. But it is an open question and it is beyond unacceptable for the White House to try to pressure a general to change his comments on such a situation.
This trickle of information about the administration’s bad judgment – perhaps too polite a term for what might be more accurately termed corruption – has the feel of the leak before the dam bursts. For a party and administration which promised to “drain the swamp” and the most “transparent” government ever, this goes far beyond hypocrisy. If these stories are proven to be true, heads should roll and people should go to jail.
Leave it to the Obama administration to make the voters forget about a Republican “culture of corruption.” It brings to mind the t-shirt I saw in a Washington, DC airport earlier this week: A smiling George W Bush with the caption “Miss me yet?”
