Year: 2009

You are so hungry for some red meat. I just know it. Well, my guest on this podcast, Caleb Howe of Redstate and The American Spectator, delivers the conservative perspective in a way only a former Marine can give it–straight shooting. We talk about the Astroturf hypocrisy and why Sarah Palin’s message on health care […]

Two separate problems are inherent with www.whitehouse.gov/realitycheck. One, it’s pure Obama propaganda. Two, it’s funded by you, the taxpayer. In my American Issues Project column today, I take on the reality of the six narratives the President puts forward via his proxies in videos there. I’ll share two “reality checks” here, but I hope you’ll […]

Or not. Al Gore gets all “hey, we’re going to launch this big advocacy movement through my Climate Project organization where I personally train 2,600 “volunteers” to parrot talking points to get people all scared and upset and purchase lots of carbon credits and come see my speeches which make me lots of money….. what? […]

In the early days of Barack Obama’s presidency, his approval rating soared to dizzying heights as many Americans thought we had entered a new era of hope, change, unity, bipartisanship and uplifting speeches. Then, Obama moved on to actual governance and suddenly, for the first time in his political career, he had to primarily rely […]

One of the talking points we keep hearing from Democrat talking heads and other sheeple is that Obama was overwhelmingly elected along with a mandate to completely change the health system. Of course, he only beat McCain 53% to 46%. So, does this Rasmussen poll mean there is even more of a mandate to NOT […]

James J. Zogby is the president of the Arab American Institute out of Washington D.C. and he thinks that if you are an American that stands against President Obama’s communistic healthcare policies, or you happen to believe in the integrity of our borders, or you are worried that this nation is being systematically dismantled one […]

If this picture doesn’t make you hurl, there’s something wrong with you. No, seriously. Read the accompanying article, which–of course–portrays these sick pedophiliac freaks as victims of Israeli oppression. The Hamas government also paid the men to take these baby girls as sex slaves. Yes, the appropriate term is “sex slave” and not “wife.” Islamic […]

As a side note, Linda Douglass is one of many of the press’ true believers who joined the Obama White House. She wasn’t biased when she was a reporter. Nosirree!

Watch this video (Via Michele Malkin), or at least the first 5 minutes of it. In it you’ll see Niki Tsongas tell two whoppers. Seriously – the first topic she covers is about consultation with a physician about end of life care. She claims such counseling is not mandatory and would only take place at […]

The left is becoming alarmingly candid about its antihuman agenda. From the New York Times, which gives moonbats their marching orders: Having children is the surest way to send your carbon footprint soaring, according to a new study from statisticians at Oregon State University. The study found that having a child has an impact that […]

Never mind Kenneth Gladney, the black conservative who was beaten up by Democrat-deployed union thugs for opposing ObamaCare. The NY Slimes’ cartoonish Paul Krugman proclaims that resisting healthcare nazification is racist: For the most part, the protesters appear to be genuinely angry. The question is, what are they angry about? Power-mad socialists trying to replace […]

Surprisingly, Steny Hoyer and Nancy Pelosi have doubled down on their strategy of demonizing ordinary Americans who have shown up at Townhalls to speak to their representatives about health care. Trashing American voters who have the audacity to disagree with their lords and masters in Congress doesn’t seem to me to be a winning political […]

James Joyner writes that he reads books less, now, and non-fiction at that, because he is reading all day in front of the computer: I read non-fiction almost exclusively and have gone from being a book person to an article person. The efficiency of getting 85 percent of the point in eight pages that I […]

I have found myself saying, in conversation, “I’m afraid Obama is going to kill me.” Now, I’m not picturing him or one of his minions coming over to murder me, but I am afraid that as I get older and need expensive care to keep me alive that I will be told I cannot have […]

The White House cannot delete communications, nor keep information about citizens exercising their free speech rights. Linda Douglass admits the White House is Breaking the law.

One of the persistent, shallow global food myths is that the world could feed more people if we gave up eating meat. Ezra Klein wrote another misguided column about this–“The Meat of the Problem”–in the Washington Post of July 29. Klein cites as his authority a naïve “study” by the kids at Carnegie-Mellon University. Klein […]

This is a scene from my living room last night: Yes, my cat-hating Jack Russell mix, Patton, is happily chowing down next to a kitten. That kitten was running around on the porch, ran in the house past Patton, and started eating his food. Then Patton just started eating next to him like it was […]

You know what stinks? What stinks is that the Tea Party and other Right leaning activists are totally unfunded. They get no money….AT ALL. I’m just bitter because while the no-talents on the left get paid $16 an hour to show up, act bored, block doors, [New: Punch people] and wave a sign, activists on […]

Anyone ever notice that some of the biggest supporters of anthropogenic global warming seem to be the biggest CO2 offenders? Traveling all around the globe in private jets, taking limo’s, staying at fancy hotels, having power hog homes, and, oh, let’s not forget all great vacation locations and other areas of interest they head to. […]

At one point, the Obama voters were grassroots. But, ever since he started gaining traction during the primaries, the organization has grown stronger and more controlling, especially when you add groups such as ACORN and SEIU into the mix. I’m just wonder if Pete Wallsten of the LA Timeseven read what he wrote. We all […]

The L.A.Times’ Dan Neil is confused. He thinks that the so-called progressive movement is right on all the issues, but he just cannot understand why they can’t win the public debate, especially on healthcare. Neil laments that they have all the “English majors” on their side but cannot win “any war of words.” Just what […]

“Gryphen” a/k/a Alaska blogger Jesse Griffin, decides apparently at random to unload on Trig Palin again: Sarah Palin has used this heartrending diminutive prop with such careless abandon, that even people who once supported her are embarrassed at her apparent disregard for the well being of this baby. Leaving behind all of the questions about […]

After four decades of urging students, hippies, communists, and agitators to come out en masse to protest the U.S. government, protests that commonly turned to violence, Democrats are at last finding a protest they don’t like because, with the healthcare debate, this time it is a protest of them and not by them. Amazingly, Democrats […]

Back during the presidential campaign, I signed on to Barack Obama’s website to receive email “alerts”. As an avid blogger, I wanted the info firsthand. Obviously that information is now part of a coordinated astroturfing campaign: Friend — I wanted to send you an urgent invitation to an important town hall with Rep. Hank Johnson […]

Via Jake Tapper: In yet more disappointing news for Democrats pushing for health care reform, Douglas W. Elmendorf, director of the Congressional Budget Office, offered a skeptical view Friday of the cost savings that could result from preventive care — an area that President Obama and congressional Democrats repeatedly had emphasized as a way health […]

If the pharmaceutical companies have been paying protesters to come out against Obamacare, as the President and his Democratic buddies sorely want us to believe, then they’re doing something very wrong. The drug industry has authorized its lobbyists to spend as much as $150 million on television commercials supporting President Obama’s health care overhaul, beginning […]

You just have to trust Barry, cause he is just so cute and fuzzy! The ACLU said in a statement to FOXNews.com that the White House blog is a “bad idea that could send a troublesome message.” But the organization added, “While it is unclear at this point what the government is doing with the […]

One thing I have been saying and writing for a long is that no one is actually saying exactly HOW any of the Democrat plans, particularly Obama’s, will reduce health costs. I’ve emailed my Dem Congress Critters, Brad Miller (NC-13) and Senator Kay Hagen. So far, crickets. None of the grasshopper upporters of the plans […]

This is absolutely awesome! “When I watch the news people stand here and tell me that I am a member of a hired mob, that I’ve been called up by the Republican Party, they only wish they could have done something like this. I’ve never been contacted by any organized group.”

Pregnant, are you? Gonna have a baby? Why? Do you hate the planet that much? For people who are looking for ways to reduce their “carbon footprint,” here’s one radical idea that could have a big long-term impact, some scientists say: Have fewer kids. A study by statisticians at Oregon State University concluded that in […]
