Thought Of The Day: McCain And Gustav

Right on the eve of the Republican Convention, Gustav is headed towards the coast and it’s entirely possible that it will land on Tuesday of next week — possibly even in New Orleans. Since the Bush Administration has been unfairly blamed for the incompetence of the locals during Katrina, McCain needs to be ready to […]

Liveblogging Biden’s DNC Speech

No, I’m not drug-addled and crazy. I want to see what he has to say. “Delaware can get another Senator, but my boys can’t get another father.” Biden’s son is making a strong personal case for his father. Something no one has yet been able to do for Obama, I notice. Applause not as loud […]

 

Liveblogging Bill Clinton’s DNC Speech

If you wondered if I was truly a masochist, my willingness to liveblog Bill Clinton’s DNC speech should remove all doubt. So here I sit. Come back for highlights, ya’ll! 8:03 “Don’t stop believing”. They love him. Why does Hillary look constipated? She really, really doesn’t like her husband. 8:05 The love won’t stop. Look […]

 



Deval Patrick: A Preview of the Obama Administration

If the media is able to install Obama in the White House, he won’t stop at borrowing Deval Patrick’s speeches; he’s likely to emulate the affirmative action governor’s policies too. This should sound familiar: Patrick was elected as a Harvard-trained Chicago lawyer with little relevant experience, who ran to the left of the more established […]

 


Women: Butch Up or Shut Up

So yesterday, both Cassy Fiano and Rachel Lucas draw attention to an Oprah article where a woman verbally brutalizes her husband in print media for all to see. She points out his foibles in the head-scratching attempt to portray him as all men just naturally are: “moderately bad”. Men are bad. Her husband is bad. […]

 

Quote Of The Day: The AIP Fights Back Against Obama’s Fascistic Attempts To Censor Them

“Having failed in its attempts to get our legal, factual and fully-supported ad off the air, Barack Obama’s campaign now wants to put our donors in prison for exercising their right to free speech. These over-the-top bullying tactics are reminiscent of the kind of censorship one would see in a Stalinist dictatorship, with the only […]

 



Obama’s Unquenchable Love Of The Grandiose

Let’s see; the McCain campaign is successfully cutting you to pieces with ads portraying you as an inexperienced, yet arrogant novice who’s more of a rock star than a politician. So, what do you do? If you’re Barack Obama, you have Bon Jovi and Bruce Springsteen open for you, have a Hollywood actress sing the […]

 

Some Inconvenient Truths

Just when gathered Democrats were about to convince the nation that they live in a miserable place and in miserable conditions, the Census Bureau has to report this: -Income. Median household income rose to $50,233 in 2007 after adjusting for inflation. That’s $665 more than a year earlier but still below the peak of 1999. […]

You Might Be A Racist …

If you don’t vote for Barack Obama. As commenter Wulf warned us in MichaelW’s disemboweling of Slate author Jacob Weisberg’s similar claim, “we may as well get used to this:” A prominent union leader on Tuesday blamed racism for Sen. Barack Obama’s (D-Ill.) failure to build a big lead over GOP rival Sen. John McCain. […]

 

Kobe Bryant, an American Patriot

Looks like it’s Kobe Bryant, 1: Cris Collinsworth, 0. The main stream media doesn’t seem to care, but at least plenty of country-loving bloggers are all over this. When I first learned of Kobe Bryant’s words of patriotism about playing for the U.S. Olympic team (who handily won the gold this weekend), I immediately ran […]

 

Liveblogging Hillary’s Speech

Hey folks, because I love you so much and because I’m masochistic, I’m going to liveblog Hillary’s DNC speech. Be here or be square. A pre-speech taste: Dick Morris: “Hillary isn’t trying to outdo Obama. She’s trying to outdo Biden.” Well, that shouldn’t be too much trouble. Ed Rendell says that Obama is the new […]

 

Hating Liberally

Writing negative things about Barack Obama, NBC News or abortion, to name just three topics brings the hate–especially against women writers. A blog that I won’t dignify with a link, posted about Amanda Carpenter, Michelle Malkin, Debbie Schlussel and me in daily succession. Not one post attacked ideas but attacked the person, the woman. This […]

 




Obama Reaches Out to the Center

After reviewing the 2007 Senate vote ratings at the nonpartisan National Journal, I’m starting to make sense of Joe Biden as Obama’s VP pick. The Obamessiah has promised to unite the country, despite being the most extreme leftist in the entire Senate. That’s where Biden comes in: Obama could have gone with the second most […]

 

A Short Democratic Convention In Prime-Time Review

I DVR’d the Democratic Convention and just finished watching it (It was even worse than most of the Democratic debates, which is really saying something). Here’s a short review of the major events that happened , 1) They started with a pathetic piece that featured Jimmy Carter walking around New Orleans, bemoaning Katrina, which incidentally […]

 

Liberal Principles And A Kid’s Baseball League

Something about this story really rubs me the wrong way, A Connecticut youth baseball team with a phenomenal 9-year-old pitcher has been disqualified because its team is too good. The team, Will Power Fitness, has an 8-0 record thanks in large part to pitcher Jericho Scott, the New Haven Register reports. His pitching is so […]

The Obama Assassination Attempt

A small group of white power nutjobs apparently came up with some sort of ill conceived, meth inspired plot to kill Barack Obama and happily, were caught and will hopefully be sent to prison for the rest of their lives, CBS4 has learned at least four people are under arrest in connection with a possible […]
