Year: 2009

Obamunists’ clever handiwork. Obamunists have taken the staged phoniness that characterizes their movement a little too far by vandalizing the Democrat HQ in Denver in an attempt to help the mainstream media paint opponents of socialized medicine as violent fanatics. One of two people suspected of shattering 11 windows Tuesday morning at the state Democratic […]

If America does succumb to socialized medicine, no one can say we weren’t warned about what it would be like. The latest from Britain: Thousands of women are having to give birth outside maternity wards because of a lack of midwives and hospital beds. The lives of mothers and babies are being put at risk […]

I like Mark Sanford. Despite his affair, I think he’s a probably more of a decent guy than the average politician (Of course, that’s a little like calling a woman the cleanest prostitute in the brothel). In any case, Sanford certainly doesn’t appear to be a serial philanderer like Bill Clinton or a Larry Craig […]

I can’t say much nice, so I won’t say much of anything–except to acknowledge that the man lived, died, served his constituents, and was rewarded and acknowledged for that service. Life is short. And we are all but a blink. Wealth, privilege, connections, power cannot give a person eternal life. They cannot give a person […]

In an effort to placate the Left, Barack Obama’s administration is going to legally target the CIA for its interrogations of terrorists. This encourages America’s enemies and puts our country at greater risk because it sends a message to the CIA: Keep your head down or you might be targeted with a politically motivated prosecution […]

Ted Kennedy passed away last night and although I may not have agreed with Kennedy on much of anything, I was sorry to hear that he had died. I’m also sorry that Kennedy, like so many other people these days, is having his passing used as a mere political football. After someone shakes off their […]

Senator Kennedy has passed on Sen. Ted Kennedy died shortly before midnight Tuesday at his home in Hyannis Port, Mass., at age 77. The man known as the “liberal lion of the Senate” had fought a more than year-long battle with brain cancer, and according to his son had lived longer with the disease than […]

Yep, you read that right. In many states car buyers that turned in their “clunkers” for up to $4,500 off the cost of a new car are finding out that they have to pay state sales tax on the $4,500 too. And still others just might find out next year that they’ll have to pay […]

Obama has accused opponents of abortion of “fabrication” when they say that Obamacare provides federal funds for abortions. He’s calling them liars despite the fact that FactCheck.org basically sides with abortion opponents claiming that the president’s polices will fund abortion. So, who’s fabricating now, Mr. Obama? On August 19, Obama made the assertion that federal […]

Thought everyone would want to know.

The sad case of “Trig Truthers” — the wacko conspiracy theorists who insist that Gov. Sarah Palin did not give birth to her fifth son, Trig — would be a senseless tragedy if we did not learn the valuable lesson this episode teaches. In reflecting on this situation earlier today, I observed: What is most […]

Quite frankly, it would have been nice to see some of this same talk while Bush was President and the Left, included the elected Congress Critters, were going pure, utter barking moonbat A “furious” Rep. Peter King, the hawkish, maverick Long Island Republican, blasted a “disgraceful” Eric Holder for opening an investigation of CIA interrogators […]

Via The Jawa Report, a little “domestic terrorism” update. First St. Louis: A federal search warrant obtained by the Post-Dispatch connects a former Democratic campaign strategist to a Clayton bombing last year that seriously injured an attorney. About two months after the October bombing, federal law enforcement officials searched the downtown loft of Milton H. […]

Back in March of this year, when both the White House and the CBO put out their budget deficit numbers, we were told that the CBO simply had it wrong and were much too pessimistic about the 10 year budget that the Obama administration was touting. The head of the White House’s Office of Management […]

Anyone foolish enough to want their healthcare in the hands of Big Government might want to think again in light of Social Security benefit cuts. Millions of older people face shrinking Social Security checks next year, the first time in a generation that payments would not rise. … By law, Social Security benefits cannot go […]

Stories like this make it clear that liberals have been winning the culture war: A Nebraska man who stole a painting of the Virgin Mary to finance an abortion for a teen he raped has been convicted of first-degree sexual assault and felony theft. Aurelio Vallerillo-Sanchez, 39, of Omaha, pleaded no contest to the charges […]

Michael Kent Curtis, the Donald Smith Professor of Constitutional and Public Law at Wake Forest University, has not only proven his ignorance of the facts, but he has also shown that truth does not matter a whit to him if it gets in the way of common liberal propaganda. He proved this in his blather […]

Liberalism is like a venereal disease for our culture. It’s painful, irritating, and spreads its stupidity like wildfire. When the mentally ill start buying into liberal concepts like “If it feels good, do it,” “No one can judge you,” and “You’re really a victim,” the the results aren’t pretty: Imagine if Vincent Van Gogh — […]

Dan Gainor of the Media Research Center, Townhall, and Newsbusters joined me to discuss the media’s bias–both covert and overt–and how it shapes public opinion. It does work. The media does shape opinion, even though most news organizations have moved to a British model of journalism. The difference is that a Brit journalist will admit […]

Yesterday, as part of their attack on Obamacare, the RNC came out with a “Seniors’ Health Care Bill Of Rights” and the reception to it on the Right was a little chilly: PROTECT MEDICARE AND NOT CUT IT IN THE NAME OF HEALTH CARE REFORM: President Obama and Congressional Democrats are promoting a government-run health […]

Unsurprisingly, some folks have a problem with this, such as the LA Times Glenn Beck used his popular Fox News show this afternoon to attack the background of Van Jones, a White House environmental advisor who co-founded an African American political advocacy group that organized an advertising boycott of his program. During his 2 p.m. […]

What does it say about a United States President and his administration that the best explanation for their ideas and plans can be explained by watching the South Park underwear gnome episode? Well, nothing good. Case in point Governors from across the South told President Barack Obama’s health care reform czar Monday they need to […]

Barrack Obama and his pals in the mainstream media are doing everything in their power to keep people from finding out the truth about the health care bills that are winding their way through Congress. Rather than engaging in an honest debate about the pluses and minuses of socialized medicine, they’ve abandoned all significant attempts […]

In his Washington Post column for August 25, Howard Kurtz sound exasperated, fed up with those moron Americans that dare to have an opinion against Obama’s socialist take over of the country’s healthcare system. Oh, and he felt the need to slam Governor Sarah Palin, too… but what’s new about that? What is unusual, though, […]

The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’ — Ronald Reagan Unlike liberals, conservatives tend to be reluctant to create new regulations. In part, that’s because we consider government to be a necessary evil that can often create as many problems as it solves […]

Today Paul Krugman attempts to make the case that “government intervention isn’t always bad”. However, he says such an argument has a tough time establishing itself because the “zombie ideas” of Reaganism just won’t die, i.e.”government intervention is always bad.” You know, I don’t remember it that way at all. In fact, few will argue […]

Here’s a surprise: NY Governor David Paterson’s approval ratings aren’t in the cellar because he’s an incompetent moonbat, but because Whitey is racist: The state’s first black governor … blamed his political woes — and those of President Obama — on a white-dominated media that he accused of taking part in an “orchestrated” attack campaign. […]

Too perfect: Los Angeles Times’ TV listings put the show “Jackass” in Keith Odormann’s time slot. The understandable Freudian slip led to this erratum: LA Times blogger Andrew Malcolm comments: It’s not the Worst Mistake in the World. But without this kind of correction, online too, a few thousand people might have tuned into MSNBC, […]

Islamofascists bent on destroying freedom, who hate Jews and Christians, and out of soul blotting envy murdered nearly 3,000 innocent Americans on 9/11 should be remembered for being soulless killers. Those lost to their evil should be remembered as individuals who lost their lives because they lived their lives as free men to the end. […]

One of the first states to attempt to tally the “new jobs” that Obama’s stimulus created has issued its first report and the news is rather discreditable to say the least. New Hampshire’s Director of the Economic Stimulus, Bud Fitch, recently put out his report and he is asserting that the stimulus “saved” or created […]
