Sorry Dems,There's no Cure for What Ails You
One week later, the truth of this is more evident. If you were angry when it passed, "hold that thought" until November. Congressional approval ratings of 11% are fatal but it is up to us to keep up the fight until then.

FMJRA Roundup: Snopocalypse Edition
If you're snowbound this weekend there are lots of great blog posts to keep you reading. These cover a wide array of topics and vary widely in length. I continue to be amazed at the quality of coverage my fellow bloggers turn out time and time again. Here is some of their best:
Adrienne's Corner is asking for prayers for her blogging buddy RightKlik who lost both a father and grandmother in a week. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers and bless Adrienne for her thoughtful concern for her friend.
Donald Douglas of American Power has been out covering some great events. Last week he covered a big Michelle Bachmann rally while this week he covered a Newt Gingrich lecture and book signing. He always posts great pictures on his blog and I love that he posted a Clash video and remembered that I said I liked "Train in Vain" ages ago. That amazed me, thank you.
Amusing Bunni and Backyard Conservative, Illinois residents both, have been covering the Chicago pols in the aftermath of the Illinois election. They provide a perspective that is often missing when the blogger or analyst isn't there to capture the local flavor and nuance. There are so many Chicago connections in this administration so the elections there are particularly interesting.
Speaking of local flavor, Pat in Shreveport has the Super Bowl perspective from Louisiana. There's lots of excitement in "Who Dat" Nation. Caught him with a Corn Dog is humming "Oh when the Saints..."
Dave, a fellow Lost fan, who blogs At the Point of a Gun has some mood music for those in the path of the Snow Monster.
Bride of Rove cues into the subtle digs and slams in, what might appear to the untrained eye, a positive piece on the Tea Party movement and one of its members by NPR. We are so accustomed to the blatantly disparaging coverage of anything conservative by this media, the subtle bias gets a complete pass.
Carol's Closet covered the case of the disappearing budget story. There is no room for tolerance of an unflattering story in this administration who has the ability to make those negative stories disappear.
DaTechGuy wonders if the whole damn network is on medical marijuana. Three guesses which network he is referring to.
Fishersville Mike finds a good excuse to post the trailer from "Weekend at Bernie's" This may be the best metaphor for the status of health care I have seen yet.
Legal Insurrection puts the Senator Shelby scandal in its proper perspective.
Maggie's Notebook posts on the Tea Party perspective on a nominee for 2012. The convention in Nashville this weekend has the MSNBC talking heads just drooling hoping for some bit of news from Sarah Palin they can skew to distract from the disastrous state of the Obama presidency. Mako Snark puts the MSNBC insanity in its proper perspective.
My Voice on the Wings of Change has a feisty retort to liberals who can't make up their mind whether they want diversity or just the ability to "scream" about lack of diversity when it suits their purposes.
Nice Deb has the photo catch of the day. Good stuff.
No Sheeples has seen the "Blob" and he has a problem with women. Run for the hills.
Obi's Sister is tired of watching paint dry and has launched a blogosphere snowball fight. There is plenty of imagination and humorous takes on the coming snowpocalypse, Pundette covers the build up to the looming storm.
Speaking of humor and imagination, Detective Paco has penned a detective story. It's a masterpiece and sure to entertain the snowbound. The Camp of the Saints was inspired to create the cover art, well done you two.
Reaganite Republican has your right winged TGIF funnies, great stuff as always.
The Daley Gator honored me with blog of the day last week, which I truly appreciate. One of the benefits of the honor was The Washington Rebel linked me as well. Washington Rebel has written a piece on the importance of character and notes we may be in dire need of better Americans. To be sure, some of our worst politicians are merely feeding into a growing group of citizens who prefer to have someone else carry their load because they are somehow entitled. The politics of populism always fails because it feeds on envy and several other of the deadly sins.
POWIP has a piece that expands on the wrath of the deadly sins in our culture. A young girl was hounded to her grave by a culture that promotes mean girls who feel entitled to mercilessly torment anyone who has something they don't.
The Other McCain is reporting from Alabama and stumbled on a story he hadn't intended to cover. Dan Riehl thinks the right should either air it or debunk it, we don't need a scandal in this important election year.
Wyblog puts the Michael Steele comment that a million dollars is not a lot of money in perspective. This is one the left will wrap their arms around whether Steele deserves it or not.
The Troglopundit knows a good joke when he sees one. "Well it certainly made me smile."
That's a wrap, just in time too. The snow is coming down heavy duty right now.

The Conservative Bloggers Get Geeky Plus a Linkstravaganza
Despite some of the distinct disadvantages facing conservative bloggers some of my fellow bloggers do an amazing job driving the political discussion, covering the news and building momentum for what looks to be the year conservatism grabs the torch from the faltering Democrat reign of terror. Here's a roundup of some of the great posts I enjoyed from my favorite bloggers:
Legal Insurrection has devoted his blog to covering the Senate race in Massachusetts. To say that his coverage has been outstanding doesn't quite do it justice. His latest post covered Coakley's dig against Fenway fans in Boston. As Pundette notes, "It's hard to understand a candidate this tone-deaf," as she links to Coakley's bizarre defense to charges she has been too passive leading up to this election:
Coakley bristles at the suggestion that, with so little time left, in an election with such high stakes, she is being too passive.
“As opposed to standing outside Fenway Park? In the cold? Shaking hands?’’ she fires back, in an apparent reference to a Brown online video of him doing just that.
Backyard Conservative urges Sox fans to UNITE!!! Be sure to read Barnes and Not So Noble Barack while you're there. Nice title Anne.
Carol's Closet would like dinner and a kiss first.
Conservative Black Woman stumbles across the biggest kettle of horse dung she's seen in a while.
Fishersville Mike has a great anecdote from a Coakley event I haven't read anywhere else. That is seriously impressive; I have read more posts and articles about Coakley lately than you can imagine.
Motivation Truth has the statement from Sarah Palin on the tragedy in Haiti offering details on how to help.
Nice Deb has an amazing video from Massachusetts Miracle. It will give you goosebumps.
Obi's Sister has an inquiring mind while things get a little steamy at Fausta's blog. Is there a fainting couch in the Oval Office?
Paco finds there is nothing like a father and son failure story to put a chill on a political dynasty in the offing.
Reaganite Republican now the first place I look for a great round up of cartoons, finds a bit of shock and awe in Massachusetts.
The Camp of the Saints has a disturbing story examining potential dry runs for acts of terror or are jihadists probing us to uncover weaknesses. Could it be both?
The Other McCain is heading to Massachusetts to cover the election. We're all tea baggers now is the "crie de coeur as he heads into battle.
The Daley Gator sees Scott Brown changing the political landscape. I agree.
Back to the geeks, Jimmie Bise finds a few depressed geeks on the internet. Download his podcast for an informative discussion on Google in China.
The Troglopundit likes Rubio's suggestion for lowering unemployment as much as he loves his wife's chocolate cake.
Track A Crat reviews "The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus."
Wyblog covers an important story that has gotten too little attention. Be sure to read this post.
American Power covered some of the fall out from the candidates debate highlighting Coakley's weird comment there are no terrorists left in Afghanistan. He rounds up great posts covering the news as well.
And so it goes in Shreveport has been following the efforts in Louisiana to recall Senator Mary "Louisiana Purchase" Landrieu after her her vote for ObamaCare left her constituents irate.
Carol at No Sheeples awards The Other McCain the coveted Gonzo Award for Journalism. There wasn't a dry eye in the blogosphere.
UPDATE: I missed Nikki's post at My Voice on the Wings of Change who tells Michael Steele to sit down and shut up. Great post that has generated a lot of thoughtful discussion.
Thanks to my friend Anne Leary at Backyard Conservative for linking and for her kind support and encouragement. Welcome to Backyard Conservative readers too!

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like a Linkaround
Christmas is just a short 12 days away and I am completely on schedule for being totally unprepared. Everything I have done hasn't worked, a la Clark Griswold in "National Lampoon Christmas Vacation:"
While I am waiting for my Hallelujah Chorus moment with the Christmas lights, I am taking the neighborhood tour to admire the lights of my neighbors in the blogosphere:
And so it goes in Shreveport has comments on the latest from Rasmussen. Looks like more Independents have lost that lovin feeling for Obama. Cynthia Yockey adds: "Obama hits a new low — in the polls, I mean, because with Obama and the expression ‘new low,’ you have to be specific." How true. Professor Jacobson says, Yowza!
Another Black Conservative covered the outrageous ruling from a Clinton appointee federal judge on ACORN funding.
Backyard Conservative covered the latest news on Blagojevich who seems to be open to pointing fingers at Obama and Michelle too.
Bride of Rove got sucked into a conversation with a liberal on global warming, insanity ensues.
Angela Stevens asks "Which Little Piggy Are You?" Answer: We're not the one's crying "Wee Wee".
Fishersville Mike ponders the latest lefty excuse for failures on health care, "the country is ungovernable." The Daley Gator notes the outrage that the mere peasants dare challenge the Obamessiah. Governing the peasants is hard.
American Power follows the astroturf and balaclavas in Copenhagen.
Conservative Black Woman corrects Rush Limbaugh and she is spot-on.
Carol at No Sheeples has had enough of three hours lectures from smurfs.
Obi's Sister has a cold but earlier in the week caught the quote of the week penned by the infamous Other McCain.
Paco Enterprises explains the "New Lysenkoism."
Pundit & Pundette find two reasons to be of good cheer unless you're Harry Reid, of course.
The Sundries Shack is pretty sure it is ok to be embarrassed we elected Jimmy Carter. I think we're going to have another one to add to that list.
Wyblog has my favorite picture of the week. Can we get cardboard stand-ins for everyone in Congress?
That's a wrap folks - cue the Hallelujah Chorus.
