More from Nancy Morgan.

America is officially on the path to socialism as Democrats managed to pass the largest spending bill in history, resulting in the largest ever transfer of power to the federal government.

The bill was passed without any discussion, and without any of our elected officials even having a chance to read the final 1,073-page monstrosity. It appears the Democrats deliberately included language designed to make it impossible to search the bill by keywords. Can you spell sneaky?

We're just now finding out the details. It appears some Americans might see $14.00 more in their paychecks, while a mouse lucky enough to live in Nancy Pelosi's district got $30 million. Stay tuned . . .

Consider: $9.7 billion is enough to pay off more than 90% of the nation's home mortgages. Instead, our tax dollars will be used to fund the left-wing agenda and pay off unions. Aargh!

The CBO estimates the true cost of this "stimulus" bill isn't the face value of $787 billion, but actually a whopping $3.27 Trillion. I'm glad I don't have any grandkids. Oh well, we voted for these guys. Before I start ranting, I think I'll point out some:

GOOD NEWS:

Four Southern states – Texas, South Carolina, Oklahoma and Arkansas – are considering legislation that would allow people to carry handguns openly in a holster.

Northern Ireland's environment minister announced Monday he has banned the local broadcast of British government ads on climate change and denounced their message as "insidious propaganda." Just so.

That didn't stop Father Earth, Algore, from racking up another "prize." His An Inconvenient Truth has won the 2009 GRAMMY Award for Best Spoken Word Album. The beat goes on.

As the media focused on their love affair with Obama, many important news stories slipped:

The Freedom to Travel to Cuba Act introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on February 4 would allow American citizens unrestricted travel to Cuba for the first time since 1963.

CULTURE:

Britain got its youngest father ever as a 13-year-old boy became a parent last week. Apparently the parents of his 14-year-old lover allowed this kid to routinely share a bedroom with their daughter. I wonder if they were surprised it resulted in a baby.  

Speaking of babies, Dr. Michael Kamrava, who implanted 6 embryos into an Angelina Jolie wannabe (resulting in 8 new kids – making a total of 14 for the proud mom), has yet another parent expecting quadruplets. The patient, who is in her late 40s, wanted one baby. The good doctor transferred at least seven embryos into her. She is now hospitalized without insurance.

TV stations in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Columbus, Ohio, have canceled a paid program from the American Family Association titled "Speechless: Silencing Christians," calling the content controversial.

Bad news for Batman. Batwoman is making her comic book come-back – as a lesbian. 

There's more news but I think I've had enough. No matter how bad things get, its important to keep a sense of humor. If not, we'll all turn into liberals.

SMILE:

Does your Pepsi lack pep? Is your Coke not the real thing? India's Hindu nationalist movement apparently has the answer: a new soft drink made from cow urine.

There has been a need for new technology to clean monitors from all the spit and coffee spewed upon them. Well here it is, just one click and your dirty monitor will be cleaned. Gotcha.

Check out this two-and-a-half minute video. Milton Friedman gives the most compelling argument for capitalism I've ever heard.

Before I sign off, I'll leave you with some points to ponder. Diana West wrote a fascinating article, "Who Attacked Our Economy? Why Does No One Care?" It raises a legitimate question about the start of this economic crisis and the possibility that it was politically engineered. You can decide for yourself.

Till next week, keep smiling.
