Year: 2009

I really didn’t intend to write anything else about the wild eyed stuff I’ve been getting from birthers, but you know, plans, mice, men…you get the idea. Sometimes an email comes along that’s so hilariously off-the-wall, you just have to post it. Such an email has been sent to me. Here’s an excerpt from an […]

Alternate title “Something Which I Agree With Obama On” The Obama administration launched investigations of hundreds of businesses around the country Wednesday as part of its strategy to focus immigration enforcement on the employers who hire illegal workers. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has begun notifying businesses of plans to audit their I-9 forms — employment […]

Gotta give the old girl her props: she may be a serious far lefty and virulent Bush hater, but, it seems she has had quite enough of the way the Obama administration handles the press Following a testy exchange during today’s (Wednesday) briefing with White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs, veteran White House correspondent Helen […]

Kudos to the folks of McArthur’s Bakery in St. Louis for telling Rep. Russ Carnahan what they think about his vote on cap and trade: DSM, a Missouri blogger I met at the Conservative Heartland Leadership Conference, got the video and has the scoop: McArthur’s Bakery on Lemay Ferry Road, exercised their freedom of speech […]

One more time into the breach. The CBO has issued a warning to Congress about entitlement spending. Again. Here’s a key paragraph: Almost all of the projected growth in federal spending other than interest payments on the debt comes from growth in spending on the three largest entitlement programs–Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. Most of […]

I know this isn’t on Fox News every two minutes, but yes this is going to be huge. http://www.marchforliberty.org/ http://www.teapartyday.com/

I’m doing the Right Doctor Show at RFC Radio. It’s me, Melissa Clouthier and Tabitha Hale talking about…not sure really. We talked for 2 hours and they’re going to cut it down to an hour. —- At 8:07 PM EST, I’m going to be on the Jaz McKay show. Click here to listen. — Today, […]

Over at Riehl World View, Dan Riehl says, The Our Country Deserves Better PAC has put together a new anti-Obama ad. I imagine they’re looking to raise money to air it. The thing that struck me was that, because you know where something labeled an anti-Obama ad is eventually going, it sort of makes you […]

Healthcare isn’t the only area where progressive California offers us a preview of our Obamunist future. The Land of Fruits and Nuts also shows us where his energy policies will lead: While promoting his new cap-and-trade energy tax bill, which passed the U.S. House last week, President Obama revealed in a White House address on […]

California continues to blaze a trail into our glorious socialist future: A Superior Court judge in Sacramento County has rejected arguments that pending budget cuts to eliminate adult Medi-Cal dental benefits offered by low-income community and rural clinics violated federal law. Judge Timothy Frawley, in a ruling made public Wednesday, said the Legislature was within […]

Whether it’s smacking down 9/11 conspiracy theories, the North American Union, or the Birthers, the freaks really come out at night when you start poking holes in their theories. In all fairness to the Birthers, I understand that there are intelligent people of good will, who simply don’t see eye to eye with me on […]

It speaks ill of John McCain that his former aids continue to bash Sarah Palin. It speaks ill of John McCain that he did not vociferously and ardently defend his running mate as she did him, post election. I have a reminder to the geniuses at the McCain camp: YOU LOST. BADLY. Now, there’s all […]

Over at the Miami Herald, an opinion piece on what happened in Honduras that Obama, Hillary, the United Nations, and the Organization of American States should read before making pronouncements The greatest tourist attraction in Central America has always been politics. Diplomats stop by every few years, take a couple of snapshots of what’s going […]

Don Surber found a gem. Evidently a 30-year old article from the Washington Post resurfaced and got printed either accidentally or on-purpose. President Carter and President Obama’s name could be interchanged and then there’s the part about coal: Byrd said he agreed with a plan by Finance Committee Chairman Russell B. Long (D-La.) to whip […]

Are there any adults at The Atlantic who can put a stop to this? Apparently not, as that is a question that has been asked since Andrew Sullivan started in on the whole “Trig is really Bristol Palin’s daughter, not Sarah’s,” malarky. And it contines on yet again. It’s certainly not as bad as Trithersim, […]

Is there anything in your life you think would be better if it were run by government bureaucrats? For most of us, the answer is a laughable “No.” — Newt Gingrich The American people generally like the care they’re getting in our health care system, but they’re unhappy about the cost. This leads to a […]

When I did my post picking the hottest conservative guys, my criteria was simple: Were they datable? Now, many people saw the list and wondered at my choices. There was no “type”. Some guys were blond and blue eyed. Some guys were square-jawed. Some were scruffy. Some were baby-faced. Some were choir-boy innocent looking. They […]

Paul Krugman came out today for “border adjustments” (tariffs) on goods from countries who aren’t participating in economy killing CO2 emissions control taxation. His argument: If you only impose restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions from domestic sources, you give consumers no incentive to avoid purchasing products that cause emissions in other countries; as a result, […]

One of the most bizarre and short sighted arguments that has risen in modern times features black Americans, who were once enslaved in this country and only make up 14% of the population, arguing that it’s okay to discriminate against people based on race. Jesse Jackson makes this argument in an attack on the Supreme […]

For bucking the media trend of lockstep leftism, Fox News continues to be rewarded with fabulous success, earning ratings equal to the next three cable news networks combined. Moonbats are not dealing well with this. But with the help of Big Government, they may yet be able to impose the ideological conformity that characterizes most […]

My column for today takes on spending when there’s no money to spend: Do the middle class and the working poor realize what the Democrats are doing to them right now? Check out this Cap-n-Trade calculator that shows how the new taxes will affect people based on income. This policy is a regressive tax aimed […]

I’m on a number of SC Republican mailing lists and last night, an email was passed on to one of those lists from Mark Sanford. I thought you might like to see what Sanford is telling his home state supporters about his affair, Dear Friends, I write to apologize and ask for your forgiveness. Well […]

Don’t blame the Despicable Eight, aka the Cap’n Traitors, for voting in favor of crippling our economy with a multi-$trillion energy tax in the name of the polar bears without even having read the 1,000+ page energy bill that would not only tip our economy into a depression, but allow the federal government to regulate […]

It appears as if the spirit of the 9th and 10th Amendments are alive and kicking in Arizona Voters in Arizona will decide next year whether residents will be subject to mandates in the pending health care reform that President Barack Obama and congressional Democrats are promoting. At least five other states – Indiana, Minnesota, […]

Leave it to the Grey Lady. Not only is she sticking up for Dear Leader, but they manage to blame America Past for what happened last week in Honduras President Obama on Monday strongly condemned the ouster of Honduras’s president as an illegal coup that set a “terrible precedent” for the region, as the country’s […]

Since it is a constitutional requirement that the President be born in the United States, it’s understandable that some people have been concerned about where Barack Obama was born. Furthermore, when you consider the fact that Barack Obama is a shameless liar, that he grew up in another country, and that there has been a […]

This morning API released the results of its third annual “Energy IQ” survey, intended to gauge Americans’ knowledge about energy issues. Considering the gravity of some of the energy proposals being debated on Capitol Hill right now, the results are particularly striking. While the survey revealed that Americans now recognize the United States will need […]
