Assange’s Hideout: Journalist Club

New Research Shows That Conservatives Are Independent, Liberals Sheeple

Posted on by William Teach

A bit of fluff for a Friday morning It goes without saying that conservatives and liberals don’t see the world in the same way. Now, research from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln suggests that is exactly, and quite literally, the case. In a new study, UNL researchers measured both liberals’ and conservatives’ reaction to “gaze cues” […]

This Week In Quotes: Dec 3 – Dec 9

Posted on by John Hawkins

It is a statistical impossibility that the group of Katie Courics, Contessa Brewers, Keith Olbermanns, et al. have never in their lives gotten unexpectedly and unwantedly pregnant. So what are they all really mocking Bristol Palin for? Not that she became pregnant out of wedlock; at least 35% of them (if not more) have gotten […]

 

Sarah Palin Makes Liberals Act Like Weirdos

Posted on by Susannah Fleetwood

For some odd reason, Sarah Palin causes liberal elites to rabidly foam at the mouth.

Democrats: Say, Let’s Change Rules to Push Our Agenda FASTER in Lame Duck Session

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

There is nothing more dangerous than a party that is about to lose power but still has temporary control of the reins of government. That is, of course, what we call the lame duck session of congress — more like a zombie congress; dead men walking… or sitting as the case may be. It has […]

 

Another Big Labor Union Payoff: Obama Adds $3.3 Million to Construction Project

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The government is over spent. This single fact is beyond dispute. Even Democrats say so. We have but to recall that Democrat after Democrat attempted to run for office this last election by claiming fealty to small government, cost cutting, and lower spending. So with all this small government/low spending fever sweeping the political classes, […]

 

More Tantrums in London Over Tuition

Posted on by Dave Blount

Liberalism promises everything you want at someone else’s expense, hooking the unscrupulous on the opiate of government largesse. The problem, as Margaret Thatcher famously pointed out, is that eventually socialists run out of other people’s money. That’s when the withdrawal symptoms set in — including violent tantrums by Big Government’s beneficiaries: Police with riot shields […]

New Environmentalist Craziness: We Can’t Drill For Oil Because Of Global Warming!

Posted on by John Hawkins

The environmentalist movement in this country is run by people who are so out of touch with reality that it’s like a form of mental illness. If we listened to the average environmental wacko in this country, we’d end up driving civilization back 1000 years. They don’t like air conditioning, cars, airplanes, or plastic bags. […]

 

Sarah Palin Drives Aaron Sorkin Out Of His Ever-Loving Mind
