The Democrats Would Rather Captain A Sinking Ship Than Be First Mate On One That Can Float

There’s a huge, gaping hole in the bottom of the boat! We’ve got to get everyone down there to try to patch it and bucket out the water. It’s our only chance to keep from sinking! What are you? stupid? This is our chance to get the passengers to mutiny and make us captain! We’ll […]

 


Obama Regime Imposing the Same Race-Based Loans That Led to 2008 Collapse

It took a collapse of the housing market that brought the entire economy down with it, but at least we learned our lesson when it comes to forcing banks to make bad loans on the basis of race — or did we? The madness inflicted by the Community Reinvestment Act is now enforced by the […]

 

Time Is Running Out for Single-Term Moonbat Messiah

Remember when Obama boastfully proclaimed that his loot & waste policies would turn the economy around within three years? Obama told TV titan Matt Lauer during a Feb. 1, 2009, MSNBC interview that he would be “held accountable” to improve the economy by the American public and, “If I don’t have this done in three […]

 



Michele Bachmann Builds A Porn Star Lead In Iowa

Wait, what? Well, that’s a new one, comparing Bachmann to a porn star. Of course, in reality, someone forgot to fix that portion of the story, and failed to replace the xxx with the actual numbers According to the new IowaRepublican.com poll, Bachmann has built a four point lead over Romney, 25-21. Former Gov. Tim […]

 

Rep Mike Doyle (D-Pa): Hey, Even Edison Would Have Wanted To Ban His Light Bulbs

Except, Doyle argues that they aren’t really “banned”- they’re better OPINION: BULB Act is dim-witted Great way to start, Mike: insult people who don’t agree with you. In 1879, Thomas Edison invented a way to create light by heating up a thin strip of material (called a filament) until it was hot enough to glow. […]

 



I Love Palin And Bachmann, But They’re Completely Wrong About The Debt Ceiling

Back in the private dining room in Pella, Palin shared some of those policy positions. On the debt ceiling, she takes the hardline view. “It is not the apocalypse,” she said, and questioned the need for the urgent negotiating sessions Republicans and Democrats were conducting in search of a debt-limit agreement (ongoing at press time). […]

 

My 25 Fave 140 Character Thoughts For June

* Diet soda “makes you fat” for the same reason anti-depressants “cause” suicide. Hint: Correlation isn’t causation. * You don’t find yourself so much as you create yourself. * If there are enough people who’ll buy anything, then you can be sure that eventually someone will come along and sell it * The merit of […]

 

The Real Reason We Have A Budget Problem That No One Has The Guts To Talk About

Do you want to know the real reason we have a budget problem in America? It’s something that most politicians, conservative or liberal, Republican or Democrat, don’t have the courage to address because it would make so many people angry. Happily, I’m not running for office; so I don’t have to spoon feed anyone. Are […]

 





NY Times Thinks Economy Runs Thanks To Government

I’m not quite sure which is more delusional and clueless: Team Obama or the NY Times (anonymous) editorial board: The Worst Time To Slow The Economy It was not surprising to hear the Republican presidential candidates repeat their tiresome claim that excessive government spending and borrowing were behind Friday’s terrible unemployment report. It was depressing […]

 






“Millionaires and Billionaires”

The committee calls Thomas Edison to testify. Please swear him in. Mr. Edison, describe for the committee the nature of your “light bulb” invention. Distinguished representatives and guests, while the idea of electric lighting is not a new one, neither had it been a practical matter until we produced our new incandescent light bulb. It […]

 


Well, we’ve been saying California should do more to be like Texas…

…and seceding from the rest of California seems like a helluva start: Is the state of California about to go “South”? Riverside County Supervisor Jeff Stone apparently thinks so, after proposing that the county lead a campaign for as many as 13 Southern California counties to secede from the state. Stone said in a statement […]

 


On Debt Talks, Charlie Rangel Gets All Religiousy

It’s kinda funny, since Democrats see no religious issues involved with abortion on demand, but, reducing government spending? WWJD? In what seemed more like a Sunday church service than a Capitol Hill press conference, Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., called out for his fellow lawmakers and all Americans to do “the Lord’s work” as a solution […]

 

Obama’s Solution To Joblessness: High Speed Rail

That, and other small ball measures, as the LA Times points out. Just the kinds of ideas one would expect from a (not my) president with virtually no experience in the private sector As White House aides search for ways to show progress on the economy, they are banking that a set of small-scale proposals […]
