Obama To CNN: “The Buck Stops With Me”

Posted on by William Teach

Please remember to wipe the DERP? look off your face before going to work. Or the laughing hysterically look. Or the “WTF?” look.

Oh, My: Obama Ag Secretary Vilsack Says Food-stamps Put People Back to Work

Posted on by Doug Ross

One in seven Americans (another Obama record!) is now on food stamps. Asked how the federal government might alleviate those high numbers, Obama Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack proclaimed that food stamps are “putting people to work“. No s***. He really said that.

Palin And Bachmann, Not Steinem, ARE Feminism

Posted on by John Hawkins

The fire has long since gone out in the belly of the liberal feminist movement in this country. Now it’s just another group of bitter, harpy careerists railing against men, pushing abortion, and encouraging young girls to act like sluts. If every liberal feminist icon in the country disappeared tomorrow, it would probably be generally […]

 

Obamunism + Car Industry = Impending Crash

Posted on by Dave Blount

This is why you don’t want authoritarian moonbats running the automotive industry: The country’s automakers should ditch their focus on SUVs and trucks in favor of smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles, President Obama said Monday. “You can’t just make money on SUVs and trucks,” Obama said during a town hall forum in Cannon Falls, Minn. However, […]

 

Convicted Murderer Converts to Islam for Prison Perks

Posted on by Dave Blount

Over the centuries, people have converted to Islam not because the barbaric cult makes any sense, but because in a country ruled by Muslims, non-Muslims don’t get the same privileges. The same applies in countries run by dhimmis. For example, in Britain the murderer of an 82-year-old woman converted to Islam to get out of […]

 

Another Example of How the NYTimes Warps Truth

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This weekend The New York Times, the fishwrap of record, had yet another one of its left-wing excuses for political analysis, this one about rumors of how Team Obama intends to carry on its continuing re-election campaign on matters economic. The piece is so chock full of bias that you don’t even have to get […]

 

Another Favored Obama Green Business Goes Bankrupt

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It seems that the surest way to go bankrupt is to have President Barack Obama use your business as some sort of example of the wonders of his administration and we have yet one more example of that in Evergreen Solar, Inc., the heavily taxpayer funded business that has now closed its doors. In April […]

 

Forcing People To Buy Health Insurance Shouldn’t Be Controversial, Says Obama

Posted on by William Teach

Obama’s out on his big taxpayer funded bus trip, with two buses that cost around a million dollars a piece, not to mention the cost of all the chase cars, security, and whatnot, making speeches that look oddly like campaign stump speeches, as Byron York points out. Then we get this, via CNS News “Here’s […]

 

Did Rick Perry Question Obama’s Patriotism?

Posted on by William Teach

In […]

 

Ron Paul Has Been Shafted! Why Are They Ignoring Ron Paul? Ehr, Because He Can’t Be The Nominee?

Posted on by John Hawkins

Ron Paul’s fans and a number of liberals who are looking to make trouble have been going on and on about Ron Paul not getting enough attention after his 2nd place finish at Ames. Here’s Roger Simon (the liberal one) making the case. I admit I do not fully understand Ron Paul and his beliefs. […]

 

“The Butter Cow Represents Humankind’s Tyranny Over Defenseless Animals.”

Posted on by John Hawkins

Hard core animal rights activists have become such a cabal of out-of-touch fruit loops that they’re almost impossible to parody. A small sign reading “Go vegan” was briefly hung around an Iowa State Fair butter cow Sunday morning, and animal rights activists took responsibility. …An email to The Des Moines Register from an animal rights […]

 

Obama’s Is A Great Example Of Someone Who’s “More Interested In Seeing His Political Opponents Lose Than Seeing The Country Win.”

Posted on by John Hawkins

If you pay attention to Barack Obama, you’ll find that what he does and what he says are often completely unrelated. For example, here’s a variation of a line he’s been using a lot lately. “The problem,” Obama continued, “is that we’ve got the kind of partisan brinksmanship that is willing to put party ahead […]

Interview: Mark Steyn on After America

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

Armageddon, now in handy, portable, YouTube form. As Mark Steyn writes in the introduction to his new book, After America: Get Ready for Armageddon, just out today from Regnery Publishing: Nobody writes a doomsday tome because they want it to come true. From an author’s point of view, the apocalypse is not helpful: the bookstores […]

 

CNN/Krugman: A Space Alien Attack Will Save Us (Disses FDR, Wants a Fake War?)

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

CNNs Fareed Zakaria and The New York Times’ Paul Krugman have solved our economic problems. They’ve decided that a space alien attack will save us. Aside from the guffaw factor of space aliens, there was so much wrong with this CNN segment that we must lay them out for discussion. First on the clip is […]

 

Pedophiles Follow Close in the Footsteps of Militant Homosexuals

Posted on by Dave Blount

You didn’t need a crystal ball to predict that pedophilia would be the next perversion to be officially normalized by our liberal rulers after homosexuality. The connection between them is hard to ignore. Here we go: If a small group of psychiatrists and other mental health professionals have their way at a conference this week, […]

 

Hyperpuissance!

Posted on by Courtney Messerschmidt

Uniquely powerful – the only one of her kind! Hegemonic unipolarity and the “Off Shore Balancing” act are facing off at the highest (almost) levels of Great Satan’s Academic and Actualizing apex. As best understood, the Offshore Balancing fans are frightened that gap shrinking, global orderliness and reinforcing desired myriad nation state behavior will become […]

 

Presenting The U.S. Military’s New Fighter, the F-35 Lightning II

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It has been a tough few decades for high-end military procurement, for sure. Promising projects, hardware, weapons systems, trains, planes, and automobiles — not to mention numerous boats — have been started, millions spent on them, only to be unceremoniously cancelled due to those pernicious political whirlwinds. Our nation has an aging military infrastructure and […]

Death From Vampire Bat Blamed On Globull Warming

I originally saw this story, or, at least the headline, through Fark, Fluent News, or some other aggregator. Never read it. But, the always awesome Tom Nelson did, and noticed an interesting tidbit The vampire bat caused its first U.S. fatality, health authorities said Thursday. A 19-year-old migrant farm worker who had been bitten while […]

 

Obama’s Apparently Got A Vision Problem

Posted on by William Teach

So says The Politico’s Glenn Thrush Of all the presidents to occupy the Oval Office in recent years, Barack Obama would seem the least likely to be wrestling with what President George H. W. Bush so unforgettably called “the vision thing.” Glenn would have done well if he explained what “the vision thing” is. In […]

 

Legal Immigrants And Illegals Battle It Out In Greenfield, California

Posted on by John Hawkins

This is an utterly fascinating story about illegal immigration not because the issues are all that different than you see elsewhere, but because almost everyone on both sides of the dispute are Latinos. Nearly all of Greenfield’s 16,300 people are Latino – and yet an ugly conflict has been brewing between longer-time residents and newcomers […]
