Senator Tom Coburn Kicks You Know What

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

I’ll say he kicks “arse” so as to make it fancy pants, as befitting one who is made totally of awesome. Switch your vote in exchange for some cushy appointment, as is the Chicago Way? Guess again. The Oklahoma Way will stop you. “I want to send a couple messages to my colleagues in the […]

 

If There’s An Obamacare Vote On Sunday, I Think The Dems Lose It

Posted on by John Hawkins

I’ve been watching the flow of the blow in the House really carefully and despite what people are saying, I don’t think they have the votes. Moreover, let me go out on a limb here: People are saying that there’s going to be a vote on Sunday. If it happens, I think Obamacare fails. Why? […]

When Indians Are Better Cowboys Than the Cowboys

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Last week an article appeared in the Wall Street Journal that gave me pause even as it evoked outrage. It proved that the India has more backbone than America does where it concerns portraying Islamic terror in films. The article was penned by Arun Venugopal.

More of Obama’s ‘Transparency’ Lies

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Remember how Obama stomped across the country between 2004 and 2009 saying that the Bush administration was the “most secretive administration ever”? Remember how he assured us that if HE won the presidency he’d have the most “transparent” administration ever? He lied. About both point. As Andrew Malcolm of the L.A. Times notes, Obama has […]

Woah! AP Fact Checks Obama On Health Premiums, Says “Liar!”

Posted on by William Teach

I wonder if the White House will now start assaulting the Associated Press for daring to stand up and say “liar!” Buyers, beware: President Barack Obama says his health care overhaul will lower premiums by double digits, but check the fine print.

The Greater Good Means Too Bad For The Children

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Senator Lieberman tried yet again to save D.C.’s school children and it fell on the deaf progressive ears of President Obama. Why does President Obama hate children?

Capitol Hill Police Victims of Congressional Arrogance

Democratic Health Care Fantasyland: Once People Know About The Bill, They’ll Like it!

Posted on by John Hawkins

One of the arguments people who are serious about securing our borders made against comprehensive immigration reform during the Bush years was that if we went that way, the illegals would get citizenship, but we’d never get the security. In fact, that’s exactly what happened when the country went that route during the Reagan years. […]

 

Barton Barriers: Austin Bureaucrats’ Conception of Art

According to the City of […]

 

The Left Turning Western Civilization into Alice’s Wonderland

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Posted on by Dave Blount

An indication of how deeply moonbattery has eaten into our society is the degree of inadequacy even the military will put up with in the name of diversity: Maj.

In my mind, this would be the very definition of “giving […]
