At the very least, he was the only president in history to leave the office with poll numbers as good as they were when he entered the office. The story: In Poland, 3 presidents in 1 day Poland’s constitution has created an unusual situation in the transition to a new head of state following the […]

America? It’s Become a Silly Little Place

President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Alvin Greene: The Three Economic Stooges

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Evidently, not only are Democrats not creating or saving jobs, but it appears as if they are in cahoots to put The Onion out of business. You see, it is impossible to satirize people who are self-parodies themselves. The latest example is Alvin Greene, the current Democrat candidate for Senator in South Carolina, who recently […]

 

Another Sign of Unions Losing Allies

Nancy Pelosi places health care “reform” front and center in Democrat re-election hopes

Posted on by TrogloPundit

Which is just fine with me. It’s not like she’s got a choice, anyway. The story: Healthcare: Democrats up ante Speaker Nancy Pelosi is doubling down on healthcare reform, betting that it will do Democrats more good than harm in November’s elections. She and her leadership team have seized on new polls that suggest healthcare […]

 

So I haven’t read the NY Times’ editorial on the Feds vs. Arizona lawsuit…

Posted on by TrogloPundit

…and I’m probably not going to. What for, really? Just for fun, let’s see if I can guess, word for word, what the editorial says: See, the Constitution is the law of the land. Right? Right? Isn’t that what all those damn teabaggers are always bitching about? A return to “Constitutional principles?” Well, fine. Does […]

 

On Paper: From Glenn Greenwald to Adolf Eichmann

Posted on by Donald Douglas

Mike at Cold Fury says Benjamin Kerstein’s withering essay on left-wing extremist blogger Gleen Greenwald is “as good a takedown of this malignant swine I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen quite a few.” Actually, I was thinking precisely the same thing. Terrorism on paper. At the full entry: “The Definitive Glenn Greenwald Takedown.”

 

Obamunists Court Vampire Vote

Posted on by Dave Blount

Just in case the strategy of splintering America along racial lines and pandering slavishly to anyone who isn’t Caucasian doesn’t work, Obamunists have begun targeting their most natural constituency — vampires: The western Pennsylvania chapter of the Obama-supporting grassroots group [Organizing for America] recently showed up at a premiere for the new “Twilight” flick, “Eclipse,” […]

Systematic Democratic Voter Fraud: Ho Hum

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Where is all the talk of disenfranchised voters? Remember them? When Al Gore was on the losing side of the equation, disenfranchised voters were all the rage. So popular, those voters. Now, when the disenfranchised voters are, well not minorities, being disenfranchised is fine. John Fund asks who will investigate the investigators. So far, no […]

 

First Lady to Waste Millions ‘Visiting’ The Gulf Oil Spill

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

When times were flush, I guess it didn’t seem so outrageous for the First Lady of the White House to fly about the country “visiting” places as if she were an important part of our national government. I suppose it was nice to have a First Lady leading by example with her advocacy programs and […]

 

Gawker Tastelessly Gawks About Suicide of Fox News Employee

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The lurid website Gawker.com recently posted a story about the suicide of a Fox News employee that was entirely empty of any real newsworthiness, but did serve as a platform to throw a dig at Fox News. In fact, it seems the only reason that Gawker posted the story at all is to attack Fox […]

 

Navy: Men Have “Duty” To Protect Women From Themselves

Posted on by Cassandra

This is so incandescently idiotic – on so many levels – that I don’t even know what to say about it.

Obama Heads To K.C. and Las Vegas, Searching For Whose A** To Kick

Posted on by William Teach

It would probably be very wrong to compare Obama’s notion that he would focus like a laser on jobs and the economy, as well as never rest till the BP spill is fixed to O.J. Simpson’s promise to never rest till the real killer was found, so, I won’t do that. Even though Obama has […]

Guns, that is. Got one? Carry it! At least, one local DA says so: A Wisconsin prosecutor said he won’t enforce a host of state weapons laws after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled this week Americans have a right to own a gun for self-defense. Jackson County District Attorney Gerald R. Fox… …who describes himself […]
