Year: 2009

Diane Feinstein might vote against the Stimulus Bill. Will Specter, Collins and Snowe be Republican turncoats? (P.S. There is fresh, different content over at MelissaClouthier.com This was so important I thought I’d come over and share the info here.)

It’s a fine line, isn’t it? I mean, really, an unwanted child shouldn’t be in this world because that’s bad. So, I think we should reframe this unfortunate event as a mercy killing. RedInkTexas notes that the mother might as well say, “I want you to murder my unborn child, I just don’t want to […]

Now that Daschle bowed out, health care reform pushes to the back burner. Bob Laszewski is disappointed. It is also possible that Obama’s biggest health care reform challenge may not come from Republicans but from those on the far left of his own party. Their pushing on things like a public health plan to compete […]

The premiere is tonight at the Kennedy Center. Citizens United produced the documentary, and my friend Matthew Taylor was director of photography. (Cross-posted at The Other McCain.)

I know, I know, it happens hundreds of times a day, and our tax money supports it. But this case is particularly appalling. Eighteen and pregnant, Sycloria Williams went to an abortion clinic outside Miami and paid $1,200 for Dr. Pierre Jean-Jacque Renelique to terminate her 23-week pregnancy. Three days later, she sat in a […]

It isn’t easy to be cheesy even by Obamunist standards: It goes from cornrows to afro in 1-2 weeks, and can be yours for a mere $19.95. No shrine to the Moonbat Messiah is complete without one. Order quickly, before Chairman Zero forbids graven images of His Hopiness. On tips from Lyle. Cross-posted at Moonbattery.

I’ve been going through the Senate Republican phone list this morning, calling various Senators to urge them to vote “no” on this Porkzilla plan. The first person I called was Senator Mel Martinez (who I, incidentally, met last year). The DC office line was busy, but I got right through on his Florida line. I […]

Think this will go over well with the Obamanuts? A TASMANIAN winery has launched a new range of wines with labels featuring terrorist leader Osama bin Laden. Another label reproduces an image that surfaced from the torture scandal at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, of a hooded prisoner with electric wires attached to his hands. […]

Last week it was the O-Team preparing for lighting raids on Obama-brand-equity rustlers. But maybe the Obama Administration needs to set its own White House house in order, as the AP reports that the AP is coming after President Obama for its piece of icon pie. It turns out that The Image is based on, […]

What a shocking surprise: Robert Gibbs has not been a great press secretary and this little exchange, where he was humiliated enough by Jake Tapper to cause the rest of the media in the press conference to release audible gasps of surprise, just goes to show it. Of course, Gibbs is not as smooth a […]

Say, ‘memba this snippet from a Yahoo Neews article (since removed) about the China earthquake (taken from Moonbattery) Natural disasters killed over 220,000 people in 2008, making it one of the most devastating years on record and underlining the need for a global climate deal … an earthquake shook China’s Sichuan province, leaving 70,000 dead, […]

Yesterday my 16 yr old is telling me that he just can’t believe that Michael Phelps got caught smoking pot. I sit quietly, because the last thing I want to do is tell my teenager that I think pot should at the very most be a minor infraction, and that we fill our jails with […]

R. Emmett Tyrrell: Egads, it is going to be a long four years! It is only two weeks since the Prophet Obama’s inauguration, and already he has revived memories of Boy Clinton’s first 100 days. Political observers with a sense of history might well ask whether the Obama Administration will approximate the adolescent incompetence of […]

It seems my friend Rick Sincere was the first in the blogosphere to wish Americans a Happy Reagan Day on this, the ninety-eighth anniversary of the birth of the greatest American president of the second half of the twentieth century, the chief executive with the most successful economic policy of that entire century. As we […]

President Obama has a meeting scheduled with families of those killed in the terrorist attack on the Cole and the families of 9/11 victims most likely to discuss with them dropping charges on one of the Cole bombers. Andy McCarthy has been following this story closely. …it is noteworthy that, before the appointing authority acted […]

Yesterday, President Obama expressed outrage at Wall Street’s “excesses” and said he would cap the salaries of CEOs in institutions getting federal bailout money to $500,000 a year. If that isn’t absurd enough: Adding to the outrage was a flurry of reports that after taking taxpayer rescue funds, some big banks were still planning to […]

Barack Obama, bidding fair to become the 21st century’s Jimmy Carter, lays a heavy downer on us via the the Washington Post op-ed page: By now, it’s clear to everyone that we have inherited an economic crisis as deep and dire as any since the days of the Great Depression. (Via Memeorandum.) Read the rest […]

Yuk yuk. That Bill Gates is such a card: Microsoft founder turned philanthropist Bill Gates released a glass full of mosquitoes at an elite technology conference to make a point about the deadly disease malaria. “Malaria is spread by mosquitoes,” Gates said while opening a jar onstage at the Technology, Entertainment, Design Conference — a […]

The timing of this move says a lot about how much confidence these nations have in the United States now that Barack Obama is President, A Russian-led bloc of post-Soviet nations has agreed to establish a rapid-reaction military force to combat terrorists and respond to regional emergencies, Russian media reported Wednesday. The decision came a […]

Chairman Zero isn’t getting any better at picking people for high-level positions. His choice to serve as deputy attorney general under skeevy pro-terrorist lowlife Eric Holder is moonbat lawyer David Ogden. In the 2005 case Roper v. Simmons, Ogden alarmingly argued that the USA must abide by a death penalty treaty that we never signed, […]

There is a virtually unlimited number of wasteful programs that are being subsidized by the stimulus bill, but there’s one in particular that deserves extra attention because it is emblematic of so much of what’s wrong with our government today, The massive economic stimulus bill moving through Congress is being watched closely by arts groups […]

Many people have been so distracted by Obama’s horrendous stimulus package and the rank incompetence he displayed in picking a staff that they’ve failed to notice how his weakness is encouraging our enemies around the world. Iran, which has correctly pegged Obama as a weakling that they can push around, is already making a mockery […]

Rarely do I say nice things about Mitch McConnell, but I really love this line about the stimulus, “If you started spending the day that Jesus was born and you spent a million dollars every single day, you still wouldn’t have spent a trillion dollars.” — Mitch McConnell

The left’s fascist impulse to control and censor their fellow citizens are never far from the surface. Here’s the National Hispanic Media Coalition proving that to be true, In a petition to the FCC this week, the National Hispanic Media Coalition claims that hate speech is “prevalent” on national cable news networks and wants the […]

Some of my favorite Twitter posts from the last few days… RightGirl: Do you know there’s an Obama theme for WordPress? I threw up a little in my mouth secrettweet: 12806 I’m afraid that all of my friends will leave me if I continue to rant about politics, environmental destruction, and global injustice. darthvader: The […]

It was George Stephanopoulis, James Carville, Paul Begala who talked daily with Rahm Emmanuel. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. They are Democrats and The Press. Which is to say they’re teammates. From Gateway Pundit: James Carville, Rahm Emanuel, Paul Begala and George Stephanopoulos have been holding daily phone conversations for nearly 17 years. […]

Redink Texas says, “It looks like the honeymoon is just about over.” Well, time will tell. At least the finance guys on TV won’t die of repeated, spontaneous Obasms: Kramer quotes Barack Obama who said, “Now is not the time for profits.” Scarborough called it a “stunning quote” while Kramer praised the Chinese Communists who […]
