I haven’t watched the President’s interview with FNC’s Bret Baier so I’m not going to offer any thoughts on the interview…yet. That said, this post is for those who missed it. Myself included. I’ve embeded the first part, which is on health care, because it’s probably the more important of the two segments right now.
Part 1 – Health Care Reform
Watch part two, which covers foreign policy, here.
Do your duty. Call Congressmen Donnelly, Ellsworth and Hill today and every day until a vote is held and tell them to …

Things are getting heated in Washington as the Saturday (non)vote draws near. Congressman Pence took to the floor today to demand that if the Democrats have the votes for health care passage, then call the vote instead of changes the rules.
Is the Democrats (non)vote something new to the House? No, it’s not. In fact, it was used to pass the New Deal American’s first major entitlement program that still saddles our economy with massive debt and unfunded mandates. Republicans have also used the (non)vote option (mentioning just to be fair). But it wasn’t used to pass major legislation that poll after poll shows American’s don’t want.
This is a bill our country can’t afford now and not ever! It’s time to kill the bill!

Okay, this is it. The Democrats have thrown down the gauntlet. A challenge has been laid on the table and the beginning only start this weekend! No, I’m not talking about whether the coming health care (non)vote takes place, I’m talking about March Madness®. I’m talking Hoosier Hysteria. I’m talking about the NCAA tournament baby!
Thomas Cook of Blue Indiana is challenging Hoosier Access to some bipartisan bracket busting and this is an open challenge.
So, by fellow GOP bloggers and readers of blogs, go sign up here at ESPN.com for the Hoosier Blog Bracket and let’s make the winner is from Hoosier Access!

Another day, another congressional district, another poll, another huge advantage for one candidate in a crowded field. This time it’s the 9th congressional district and the advantage goes to Mike Sodrel.
According to a poll conducted by Wilson Research Strategies:
Mike Sodrel leads his primary GOP opponents by a wide margin. On a ballot test among 300 likely Republican primary voters in the Ninth District, Sodrel is ahead with 46% compared to Travis Hankins’ 19% and Todd Young’s 13%. Twenty-two percent of voters are still undecided. Among those 46% of voters for Sodrel, 52% identified themselves as “very conservative” voters.
Much like in the 5th congressional district poll, even if one of the challengers picked up the entire undecided percentages the incumbent (or in this case the former incumbent) still comes out on top.
Granted there are till 7+ weeks to go and ground can be gained or lost on all sides. That said, it looks like the 9th is preparing for Rocky 5.
Voters were polled from February 28-March 3, 2010.
Just so you heard that correctly, Dan Rather, the formerly distinguished CBS Evening News anchorman who got busted running a bogus hit story on President George W. Bush, was just recorded saying…
“Listen he’s a nice person, he’s very articulate” this is what’s been used against him, “but he couldn’t sell watermelons if it, you gave him the state troopers to flag down the traffic.”
“Couldn’t sell watermelons“? Was Rather being intentionally racist? Probably not, but that’s never stopped the raging left from seeking to devour those who speak before they think….that is unless they’re liberals.
That said, I’ll give them the benefit if the doubt and give them a few days to release their scurilous rage against those who would speak ill of “The Chosen One”, intentionally racist or not. But more than likely, the fiery depths of Hades are more likely to freeze over than the left get upset.

What is it with southern Indiana Democrats lately? Warrick County GOP Chairman Rick Martin has the latest in shady Democrat antics.
At Thursday’s meeting of the Warrick County Election Board, Democrat board member Dennis Sullivan made a statement that he had no intentions of supporting the continued use of the satellite voting location at the Ohio Township Public Library for early, absentee-in-person voting for the 2010 election. Democrat chairman Terry White also made statements to this effect in a number of communications with Warrick County Clerk Sarah Topper. Because a unanimous vote of the Election Board is required by law to approve the use of a Satellite Office, it appears that the 26,000 plus voters in Ohio Township will be denied the access to polls that was extended to them in 2008.
…
The Democrats’ refusal to allow absentee-in-person voting at the Ohio Township Library is a complete reversal of policies instituted under former Democrat Clerk Shannon Weisheit. The satellite office in Ohio Township was designed to expand access to all voters in Warrick County, regardless of political party affiliation. The fact that Warrick County had a 300% increase in absentee voting in 2008 as compared to 2006 is a clear indication that the citizens of Warrick County want this office to remain open. The Warrick County Republican Party supports efforts to offer satellite voting in Ohio Township in 2010 to provide greater access to all voters.
On the heels of the largest election turnout in years, I find it odd that Democrats on Warrick County’s election board are seeking to suppress the vote by denying satellite voting access to thousands of registered voters. Normally this is a ploy that Democrats would love to play on Republicans, what with voter suppression usually a part of the Democrats platform of fear mongering against Republicans. If Warrick County Democrats get their way, they would be the ones preventing easy access to voting.
What can be done? According to Chairman Martin “On Wednesday, March 10 at 4:00pm in the Commissioner’s Meeting Room in Boonville, the Election Board will reconvene to take a formal vote on whether to keep democracy, and the satellite office, alive, or revert to a system where voter access to the polls was limited.” Sounds like a perfect opportunity to get your voice heard.
