Year: 2010

Yet another embarrassing moment for the United States as President Obama had this to say as he exited his helicopter: When U.S. President Barack Obama stepped off his helicopter in Huntsville on Friday, the first thing he said was, “You’ve got a lot of golf courses here, don’t you?” Industry Minister Tony Clement told the […]

It’s not hate mail, actually (but close enough). It’s a STFU Tumblog, “STFUSexists.” And I guess that includes me, and I’m targeted for extra STFU-ing for my neocon-ishness. See, “Another neo-con with a woman problem ? …“: Now, I’m not expecting much from someone with a No-Bama icon who thinks that Melanie Griffith has written […]

At Moonbattery, “Meanwhile, Back at the Joe Biden ‘Recovery Summer’ Tour,” and Gateway Pundit, “Eat Up… Joe Biden Gets Gets Custard in Face When Business Owner Tells Him: “Lower Our Taxes”” (via Memeorandum): Joe “Bite-Me” Biden traveled to Wisconsin yesterday to campaign with far left Progressive Russ Feingold (D-WI). Smokin Joe ordered a custard at […]

Readers will recall this morning’s post, “Most Illegal Immigrants Smuggling Drugs, Says Gov. Jan Brewer.” Well it turns out Gov. Brewer’s standing firm. See Fox News, “Arizona Gov. Stands by Claim That Most Illegals Smuggle Drugs Into Country.” Additional responses to today’s immigration posting here.

So I’ve been keeping vague track of global economic news lately. In particular, like so many others, I’ve been kind of watching — catch as catch can — the Greek economic…thing. Their bond market, in particular, is doing poorly. I know that, because I read this: Greek Bond Risk Jumps to Record on Signs of […]

Phew! President Barack Obama has signed a bill that temporarily spares doctors from a 21 percent cut in Medicare payments. One could also say it “temporarily spares” patients from that 21 percent cut. Doctors will lose business, naturally, if they stop taking Medicare patients because of the low pay, but they’ll still have business. Medicare […]

My new Talk Radio Watch column is now up at WND! Check out FREE audio and webcam highlights from the week in talk radio… Rush Limbaugh denounced twice this week in Congress (and responds by posting a clip from his old TV show) Glenn Beck mocks JD Hayworth Mark Levin explains what’s wrong with that […]

Well, this is getting to be an Arizonapalooza weekend! See, “Mexico Represents Single Biggest Drug Trafficking Threat to U.S.,” and “Most Illegal Immigrants Smuggling Drugs, Says Gov. Jan Brewer.” And here’s this awesome clip from Gov. Brewer: Cross-posted from American Power.

The Arizona Guardian reports that, “Brewer advisor says “missteps” were made on immigration claims” Still, anything Gov. Jan Brewer says will “ignite controversy.” As long as any official speaks bluntly and honestly about the crisis, media types will repudiate those remarks as extremist. At NYT, “Arizona: Governor Ignites Controversy With Remarks on Drug Mules.” (Via […]

…I mostly took to Twitter! And it’s funny how when you think you have a pretty high-impact post and it gets little love after all. Or maybe it wasn’t that hot to begin with. Folks can check it out, “World Cup Gives Leftists (Another) Chance to Root Against America.” (I’ll be rooting for USA tomorrow, […]

One of the more irritating things about mainstream media outlets is that they love to hire liberals, but then, for “balance,” they like to hire a matching “conservative,” too, but not just any conservative. No, they want to hire a supposed “conservative” who tells liberals whatever they want to hear about conservatives. Because the Left […]

Since Chris Matthews of Hardball on MSNBC no longer has that tingle up his leg for Pres. Obama, he has to find something else to tingle about. He is now counting the days until a Republican will come on his show and denounce Rush Limbaugh. No takers yet. I doubt Chris Matthews will ever see […]

I never trust the estimates of impending fish population collapse, considering how little respect for truth environmentalists so eminently demonstrate. Still, this article’s pretty interesting. At NYT, “Tuna’s End“: THERE ARE TWO reasons that a mere fish should have inspired such a high-strung confrontation reminiscent of Greenpeace’s early days as a defender of whales. The […]
