Yesterday’s Morning Intell: Survival Skills, Bloggers, Scooby Doo, Idiots: Morning Intell

GOOD CHANCE: Did Obamacare die tonight?
Don Surber: “With Democratic Senate Leader Harry Reid saying the Democrats will miss another deadline on Obamacare — this was supposed to be a done deal before the August recess — perhaps the Obamacare Death Watch can begin.”
LONE STAR TSUNAMI: We are on a Winning Wave
RS McCain: “That quote is from recently elected Texas Republican Party Chairman Cathie Adams, who announced today that numerous county-level officials in their state will be switching this week from Democrat to Republican.”

IT’S ABOUT WHETHER YOU WANT THE GOVERNMENT TO REGULATE THE INTERNET: ‘Net neutrality’ nets out to government control
“There’s nothing neutral about the Obama administration’s push for net neutrality.”

So, to follow Ms. Eshoo’s (one of the bill’s sponsors) argument, the Internet has “thrived and revolutionized business and the economy.” Now she, Mr. Markey, and the Obama administration want to regulate it so it will thrive and flourish. (So I take my truck into the dealership and say, “Fix my truck, Doug.” Doug says, “What’s wrong with it?” I say, “Nothing, it runs great. It just needs fixing.”)
MORE BANG FOR YOUR STIMULUS BUCKS: After a flurry of stimulus spending, questionable projects pile up.
Susan Ferrechio: “$30 million for a spring training baseball complex for the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies.”
Think of all the worthless government spending on the sex lives of beetles and bridges to Nowhere and multiply it by the billions of dollars the “stimulus” provided. We’re betting you worked harder to earn the dollars that were taxed to provide for the Stimulus than the Stimulus recipients worked to get their handouts. But that’s just a guess.

DON’T GET INTO A FIGHT WITH THIS LITTLE GUY:
Voter Fraud: Dead People Rule!
MORE on VOTER FRAUD: Don’t Expect DOJ Monitors to Report Voter Fraud
Excellent take on why the DoJ is more concerned about “civil rights” than voter fraud.
TOXIC DEM-ACORN LOVE: Gangbangers Going Door to Door to ‘Get Out the Vote’ for New Jersey Dems (Video).
Funny how Democrats don’t view voter fraud as a problem. The only problems they see is signing up more people with no interest in voting so those votes can used in all sorts of Vote Bank scams on Election Day.

One guess: trying to figure out how to spin the catastrophe that Romney Health Care has become for Massachusetts residents. Here’s a slogan for 2012: “Romney–One Finger on the Pulse of the Nation, Another in the Wind”.
JAY LENO: “Well, the whole “balloon boy” thing turned out to be a big hoax. That’s the last time I spend my day watching a kid in a runaway balloon. Usually when there’s a hoax involving a balloon it’s some kind of Countrywide mortgage scam.”
IN THE BATHTUB? Is There a Wrong Way to Use Twitter?
HOLD HANDS and STOP SHOOTING: Obama can’t be community organizer for the world
Byron York: “You can see Obama’s community organizing approach at the White House every day, in the attempts to marginalize Republican opponents, or in the attacks on Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. But handling the life-or-death issues of America’s relations with the world — that’s a new job entirely. And Obama has no experience that prepares him for it.”

HIT ‘EM IN THE POCKETBOOK: Not one more cent to the Republican Party
Paul Ibrahim: “Thus, until the Republican establishment truly gets it – and it might take a long time – conservatives must unite in pledging not one more cent to the Republican Party. There is no sense in subsidizing a permanent Republican minority – and one that isn’t even true to its principles.”
Earlier in this post, Ibrahim advocated donating to individual conservative candidates or groups. Good idea.
