It’s Time For The US To Get Out Of The Israeli/Palestinian Peace Process

Posted on November 10, 2009November 10, 2009 by John Hawkins

Rarely do I agree with Thomas Friedman, but on this, I think he’s right: The Israeli-Palestinian peace process has become a bad play. It is obvious that all the parties are just acting out the same old scenes, with the same old tired clichés – and that no one believes any of it anymore. There […]

The Tabloid Trash Beat: Obama Collapses Under The Strain

Posted on November 10, 2009November 11, 2009 by John Hawkins

The National Examiner is the Ford Pinto of gossip rags. It doesn’t have the credibility (ha ha) of the National Enquirer and it’s not quite as flaky as the Globe. Still, when I saw this story on the cover, I had to have it: According to the totally unreliable folks at the Examiner, Obama is […]

Lindsey Gramnesty in Bed With George Soros

Posted on November 10, 2009 by Dave Blount

Moonbat politics makes for some extremely unsavory bedfellows. With amnesty for illegal alien colonists off the front burner for now, alleged Republican Lindsey Graham has been advancing the liberal agenda by pushing “climate change” legislation. Ads running in his home state declare that he is “fighting to protect South Carolina” by helping the Obamination Administration […]

Indymedia Moonbats Feel the Heavy Hand of Big Government

Posted on November 10, 2009 by Dave Blount

Even some moonbats are getting unnerved by the Obamination Administration’s intrusiveness, hyper-politicization of the media, and aggressive contempt for the First Amendment: In a case that raises questions about online journalism and privacy rights, the U.S. Department of Justice sent a formal request to an independent news site ordering it to provide details of all […]

Cap-n-Trade Gives Obama Strong Man Powers?

Posted on November 10, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

Wanted to share this provocative tidbit from the Washington Examiner: Both the Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade energy approved earlier this year and the version just okayed by Sen. Barbara Boxer’s Senate Environment and Public Works Committee’s Democrats (Republicans boycotted the vote) contains an obscure but nasty bureaucratic provision that requires President Obama to act like Venezuelan strong […]

A Firsthand Account From Inside Fort Hood

Posted on November 10, 2009November 10, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

A letter a blogger friend forwarded: Dear Family and Friends, Thank you for your thoughts and prayers for us and the Fort Hood community, a community that has been deeply wounded both physically and spiritually. The past day and a half have been very challenging. I write to share my somewhat-insider perspective on the events. […]

Posted on November 10, 2009November 10, 2009 by William Teach

Obviously, the kool aid has worn off for some, at least a little As health care legislation moves toward a crucial airing in the Senate, the White House is facing a growing revolt from some Democrats and analysts who say the bills Congress is considering do not fulfill President Obama’s promise to slow the runaway […]

Help Valor IT Reach Its Goal

Posted on November 10, 2009 by McQ

Folks I normally don’t ask for donations or money. But I’m making an exception today for one of the best organizations I know and for one of the best causes I know. The organization is Soldier’s Angels. The cause is their “Valor IT” fund raiser – now heading into its final weekend. Soldier’s Angels is […]

This time the target is their grandchildren.” — Evan Sayet Throughout American history, generations of our countrymen took pride in leaving the […]

The Fall of the Berlin Wall & the Social Construction of Communism

Posted on November 9, 2009 by B. Daniel Blatt

As we celebrate today the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall and the subsequent collapse of the Soviet Empire, let us take a moment to remember the bitter legacy of Communism, based on an ideology drawn up not by men who studied human nature, but by an intellectual who studied law and […]

Newsweek: Nidal Hasan, It’s Not Islam, It’s a ‘Military on the Brink’

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Warner Todd Huston

Andrew Bast of Newsweek thinks he’s got the real reason behind Major Nidal Hasan’s murderously criminal rampage at Fort Hood last Thursday. Could it be that Hasan was steadily radicalized and steeped in hateful Islamofascism? Could it be a jihad mindset that sent Hasan into that military clinic yelling Allahu Akbar as he shot at […]

Remember The Kelo Decision? This Is What Happened Next…

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

The Washington Examiner’s Timothy Carney is reporting that the property Pfizer took in eminent domain is going to not be used after all: The private homes that New London, Conn., took away from Suzette Kelo and her neighbors have been torn down.

Tomorrow is the Marine Corps Birthday.

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

So you might die if you don’t get the vaccine. It’s a National Emergency. And yet, the government is flopping around.

America Needs Industry, Obama Needs Therapy

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Kristia Cavere

More so than any other time in our history, Americans are beginning to believe there are no solutions to the many crises that we are experiencing. Even on a local level, which is often cushioned from the national difficulties of excess spending, a drastically increasing deficit and a larger percentage of our debt being own […]

Nidal Hasan Killed Those People Because He’s A Radical Muslim

Posted on November 9, 2009November 9, 2009 by John Hawkins

Here’s the ugly truth that we’re so desperate to avoid talking about: A certain percentage of Muslims murder people not in spite of their faith, but because of it. Nidal Hasan was one of those people. By that, I mean had Nidal Hasan been a Christian or a Hindu or a Buddhist or an atheist, […]

Do you think they’re doing the type of work they need to be doing to make sure […]

How Can One Write About The 20th Anniversary Of The Fall Of The Berlin Wall And Not Mention Reagan?

Posted on November 9, 2009November 9, 2009 by William Teach

The 20th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall has become a rather big deal over the last few days, with lots of people chiming in in the media. They all seem to be forgetting one thing: it would not have happened, at least certainly not that early, if it wasn’t for Reagan’s brilliant […]

Army Doubles Down on Political Correctness That Enabled Hasan

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Dave Blount

The governmedia has been twisting itself into pretzels in attempts to justify siding with Muslim terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan against the memories of the 13 Americans he murdered. “Compassion fatigue” doesn’t even begin to pass the laugh test, but our liberal rulers have an alternate explanation for Hasan’s killing spree: he was harassed for being […]

The Wall Must Go

Posted on November 9, 2009November 9, 2009 by Dave Blount

Even self-important left-wing pop stars are good for one thing — comic relief: Irish rockers U2 returned to Berlin for a free mini-concert Thursday in front of the Brandenburg Gate, playing its classic singles and a duet with Jay-Z even as the show was obscured from public view by a nearly 6-1/2-foot (two-meter) high metal […]

East Germany Is Gone – Boo Hoo

Posted on November 8, 2009 by McQ

You have to read this one to believe it. Bruni de la Motte, a child of the GDR, tells us how hard life has been for her since the fall of the Berlin Wall. The irony is that while she tries to convince of all that was good and wonderful about her former homeland, she […]
