GOP: Standing in the way of Utopia.

Posted on by Tabitha Hale

Because clearly they’re entirely too accomodating to dissenting viewpoints. If anything, the Democrats’ problem is that they permit too much dissent–unlike the Republicans, who demand “lockstep marching.” In fact, if Democrats would learn to be just a little less tolerant of dissent, they might get a lot more done. Yeah, they just get STEAMROLLED. Poor […]

Obama, Clinton and State Department Wrong About Honduras

Posted on by McQ

I think we know the answer to the question “what in the world are Constitutions for if not to be followed” as we address it to those named in the headline, but we now have the Congressional Research Service weighing in on Honduras and it isn’t good news for the US’s policy toward that country.

Paranoid Racist Whack Jobs.

Posted on by Tabitha Hale

Remember all the outcry when we raised hell about President Obama’s address to students? Our concerns were “baseless“. We’re clearly nothing but “paranoid right wing nut jobs“. And of course, don’t forget RAAAACIST!! Fine, other Presidents have spoken to students before. THAT is not what we took issue with! How many Presidents issued study guides? […]

 

Poll: Who would you most favor as GOP nominee in 2012?

Posted on by John Hawkins

Over at Instpundit, Glenn Reynolds has up a poll asking people who they’d like to see as the GOP nominee in 2012.

Bloomberg: Food Rules Are for Thee, Not for Me

Posted on by Dave Blount

Nanny Nazi Mike Bloomberg — who insists on regulating every last bite New Yorkers put in their own mouths — has dietary habits that must put his cardiologist into shock: He dumps salt on almost everything, even saltine crackers. He devours burnt bacon and peanut butter sandwiches. He has a weakness for hot dogs, cheeseburgers, […]

Obama At United Nations: Anti-Israeli Sentiment Gets Biggest Applause

It’s the new way of doing things. Playing nice with enemies and ditching allies.

Posted on by McQ

It appears that today is the day for rather scathing assessments of President Obama in the British press. This one by Nile Gardiner.

But, says Gardiner, we should understand […]

I Agree: Birth Control COULD Save the Planet

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This may shock many of my conservative fans, but I cannot remain quiet about my support for the singularly brilliant idea that Obama’s so-called science czar offered in the 1975 college textbook Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment. Birth control, it was theorized, could save the planet. I have to say that I wholeheartedly agree. In 1975, […]

 

Digg On Obama’s Agenda: They’re Pretty Lukewarm On It

Posted on by John Hawkins

Digg isn’t a political website per se, but it is an extremely popular, leftward leaning link website. So, when I noticed they had a thread about this… Vice President Joe Biden said today that if Democrats were to lose 35 House seats they currently hold in traditionally Republican districts, it would mean doomsday for President […]

 

Union Rules: Teachers Paid Not to Teach

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Here is yet another story where union members undergoing disciplinary procedures can sometimes spend years being paid their full salary to sit home and watch TV, doing nothing, working not a minute of their day. In this case it is costing a local school system at least $2.25 million to pay teachers that aren’t teaching. […]

 

Obama to Waste More Growing Welfare in a Year Than Bush Spent on Entire Iraq War

Posted on by Dave Blount

When liberals whine that the war to liberate Iraq cost too much, they make an argument that would be reasonable — but only if someone else were making it. We now know that their Teleprompter Messiah will flush more money down welfare in the next year than Bush spent on the entire war. During the […]

 

Congresscritters to Investigate ACORN — And Those Who Exposed It

Posted on by Dave Blount

There is no good or evil in Liberal Land. Everything is a nuanced shade of murky gray.

Sarah Palin V. Barack Obama: Round Whatever

Canada To Walk Out On Ahmadinejad At U.N.

Posted on by William Teach

Yesterday, I mention that Germany has pledged that it will walk out on Mahmoud during his speech if he goes into his typical Holocaust denial and Jew hatred modes, and was urging other E.U. countries to do the same. Now, Canada goes a step further Canada will boycott Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s speech at the […]

 

Democrats Tell The Truth About Afghanistan

Posted on by William Teach

Hullabaloo comes out and tells us what most Democrats/Liberals/Progressives think about Afghanistan Escalation is a bad idea.

Nobody asked too many questions sat the time, […]

Charlie Cook, one of the most respected of the political prognosticators, continues to sound the alarm for Congressional Democrats. Since August, Cook has been telling them they’re headed for electoral disaster in the 2010 midterms if they don’t change their ways. Most of the erosion of support has taken place among independents. Although the country […]

 

McChrystal May Resign if Not Given More Troops

Posted on by Duane Lester

President Obama said the war in Afghanistan was a “war of necessity.”  He told the Veterans of Foreign Wars, "Those who attacked America on 9/11 are plotting to do so again.

Our post-racial era of Hopey Change means apartheid for kids trapped in Tucson’s public schools.
