Year: 2009

Yesterday, I was given a “Malkin award” by Andrew Sullivan, which in liberal lingo, I suppose, is intended to convey some sort of insult or another. Here’s the statement that won me such acclaim from Andrew Sullivan, “This stimulus bill is huge, so disastrous, and so harmful to our country that even though Obama has […]

“Astonishing news on the generic ballot question. Pollster Scott Rasmussen reports that Democrats are currently ahead of Republicans by only 40 percent to 39 percent. Given that this generic ballot question over the years has tended to understate Republicans’ performances in actual elections, one gathers that if the 2010 election for House seats were held […]

The rent-seekers find another ally: BILL PRESS: …And, thanks for your leadership, thanks for your good work, it’s great to have you there Senator. And, great to have you on the show. Appreciate it. SENATOR TOM HARKIN (D-IA): Well, anytime – just let me know Bill. I love being with you, and thanks again for […]

There’s nothing unnatural about the strategy unions pursue against businesses and socialists like Obama are employing against America — as proven by the Emerald Cockroach Wasp: When it comes time for the female wasp to lay her eggs, she finds a roach and stings it in a precise spot in the ganglia to reversibly paralyze […]

The moonbat–Muslim alliance has claimed another victim. Head teacher Julia Robinson of Meersbrook Bank primary school in Sheffield, England has resigned “after a lot of pressure.” She was accused of being a “racist” for wanting Muslims to attend the same school assemblies as the other children. Islamic activists have been throwing the tantrums that serve […]

At 4:07 PM EST, I’m going to be on the Jaz McKay show. Click on Stickam in the left corner to listen to the show.

“You can’t raise a whole population of people who don’t know how to think, but are taught to resent anything they don’t understand, and expect that you’re going to survive in the long run.” — Thomas Sowell, in an interview I just did with him.

“Last year, an anxious, depressed 17-year-old boy was admitted to the psychiatric unit at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne. He was refusing to drink water. Worried about drought related to climate change, the young man was convinced that if he drank, millions of people would die. The Australian doctors wrote the case up as […]

Quite understandably, there has been furor over some of the health care provisions that the Obama Administration bizarrely slipped into the Stimulus bill. What penalties will deter your doctor from going beyond the electronically delivered protocols when your condition is atypical or you need an experimental treatment? The vagueness is intentional. In his book, Daschle […]

For years, pro-life activists have warned that abortion and the contraceptive culture were leading us toward a demographic crisis. At least a decade ago, Jim Sedlak of the American Life League was warning: “In order to turn things around . . . young people getting married have to be thinking of having four or more […]

My friend and fellow blogger pointed me in the direction of this video by a 12 year old girl explaining her opposition to abortion. It looks like a school project where she either practiced using the video equipment or turned in her project on video. Go watch it and then come back. While the content […]

Sometimes commenters reveal the crux of the matter so beautifully, it seems wrong not to share. The question before the American people is simple: Is cradle to grave health care a right or a privilege? Are there some things that the government, i.e. all taxpaying citizens (remember only about 50% of working Americans pay Federal […]

I did an interview by email with Roger Simon about his book, Blacklisting Myself: Memoir of a Hollywood Apostate in the Age of Terror. Enjoy! A lot of people talk about how being a conservative can hurt someone’s career in Hollywood. Is it true? Is that really a major impediment to success? The word “major” […]

My favorite line from the other night’s Obama presser: Now, just in terms of the historic record here, the Republicans were brought in early and were consulted. And you’ll remember that when we initially introduced our framework, they were pleasantly surprised and complimentary about the tax cuts that were presented in that framework. Those tax […]

Today, President Barack Obama promised to save Julio, the four-year McDonalds veteran going to school to become the next Chris Matthews. Julio’s leg didn’t tingle…his whole body tingled and it showed. Julio is a college student. He hasn’t moved up at McDonalds and he goes to college. Not a vote of confidence in our educational […]

As America begins to circle the drain, new opportunities are opening in the kakistocracy for the lowest elements of our society. For example, the egomaniacal if mediocre actor Val Kilmer wants to run for governor of New Mexico. He claims to have the support of disgraced current governor Bill Richardson, who was going to be […]

Roger Barnett’s ranch near Douglas, Arizona is known as “the avenue of choice” for illegal aliens invading the country. The lawless colonizers have torn up his water pumps, killed his calves, destroyed fences, stolen vehicles, buried parts of his property in trash 10 inches deep, and even broken into his home. Since our quisling government […]

Over at Townhall today, Pat Buchanan has a column called, “‘Buy American’ — or Bye-Bye America.” Here’s an excerpt from it, For the stimulus bills of both Houses have a “Buy American” provision mandating that in “public works” only U.S. iron, steel and manufactures be used. The provision came out of the appropriations committee of […]

A vast plague of armyworms has just destroyed the crops of some 50,000 villagers in Liberia. Observers say the billions of inch-and-a-half-long worms can eat a cornfield down to the stalk nubs in a few hours–and then start snacking on the next field. Soon, the adult moths fly off to start new invasions. Without an […]

Remember when Obama tried to walk through a window? Well now, he has bumped his head on a helicopter door. Is it too late to start doing regular drug tests on this guy? I mean, maybe Cokey McChange has gotten back to his old habits and is so out of it that he has trouble […]

I don’t know whether to be horrified at the mere existence of this site or to laud the American ingenuity that led to it — although I am really leaning towards horror. What site? Why….hoo, boy — Sh*tsenders.com. Now, you may be thinking, “Gee, I got a dog. I could do that myself.” However, here’s […]

Liberal women need to get laid. That’s the only conclusion to come to after reading this tripe from Judith Warner in the New York Times, no less: The other day a friend of mine confided that in the weeks leading up to the election, the Obamas’ apparent joy as a couple had made her just […]

1) First of all, it’s very debatable whether stimulus bills work at all. As Walter Williams has pointed out, “In stimulus package language, if Congress taxes to hand out money, one person is stimulated at the expense of another, who pays the tax and is unstimulated. A visual representation of the stimulus package is: Imagine […]

Or is this just “cynical manipulation?” President Obama in Elkhart, IN (email transcript – Fed. News Svc) today in answer to a question by Helen Castello, a person in the crowd attending the rally: So — so we may — we may debate– we — we can debate, you know, whether you’d rather have this […]

The fear-mongering and panic inducing rhetoric used by the Obama administration and Congresional Democrats concerning the “stimulus” bill has set up another probable broken promise – this time on an unimaginably massive scale. The Promise: The end of wasteful government spending and more accountability: -Make Government Spending More Accountable and Efficient: Obama and Biden will […]

That’s the phone number for Sen. Arlen Specter’s Capitol office, and I’m sure he’d love to hear your reaction to his support of the Pelosi-Reid “stimulus” plan. If you can’t get through — lots of people want to share the love with Specter nowadays — you can also try these numbers: 610-434-1444 (Allentown office) 814-453-3010 […]
