This Year’s Hilarious Earth Hour Theme: “I Will If You Will”

Posted on by William Teach

You truly have to love Warmists: first they’re taking a whopping one hour out of their lives to supposedly turn all their lights off (but they are forgetting about all the vampire power, and should unplug everything) and pretend they live in North Korea. Then there is this year’s theme, which I have been dying […]

 

If the Individual Mandate Is Struck Down by the Court … What Happens?

Posted on by Dick Morris

The core of Obamacare is obviously the requirement that everyone have health insurance. It is likely, given the nature of Justice Kennedy’s and Roberts’ questioning of the government attorneys defending the mandate, that it will be overturned by the Supreme Court. But we all must remember that there are other parts of Obamacare that are […]

 

When You Disagree With Leftists, They Simply Dehumanize You

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The hatemongers of the Democrat Party and their pals on the far left like to pretend that it is the right that dehumanizes its foes, but the truth is no one dehumanizes enemies better than the left does. Case in point, the left thinks if you are a woman that doesn’t support convenience infanticide, then […]

 

Warmist Takes Unnecessary Fossil Fueled Flight To Compare Skeptics To Slave Owners

Posted on by William Teach

This is a fantastic way to get people to come over to the Warmist side Climate-change scepticism must be ‘treated’, says enviro-sociologist Dubious on warmo peril? You’re the kind who’d own slaves Scepticism regarding the need for immediate and massive action against carbon emissions is a sickness of societies and individuals which needs to be […]

 

If ObamaCare Falls, The Obvious Answer For Replacement Is….Single Payer?

Posted on by William Teach

The Stateists are really, really worried about the fate of ObamaCare. They’ve already started throwing around blame and coming up with excuses, said excuses not including “hey, it was unconstitutional” and “people really, really hated the Mandate.” And they’ve also decided to push something else if Obamacare goes down. Witness Eugene Robinson In arguments before […]

 

20 Phenomenal Fringe Benefits Of Being A Liberal

Posted on by John Hawkins

You have to give liberalism a certain amount of credit. It doesn’t work, destroys lives, and pits people against each other, but that’s not to say that there are no advantages to being a liberal. Sure, you may end up sleeping in a tent in Zuccotti Park, reading Noam Chomsky’s laughably ignorant books, or having […]

 

7 Ways Wildly Successful People Screw Up Their Lives

Posted on by John Hawkins

My latest PJ Media column is called, 7 Ways Wildly Successful People Screw Up Their Lives. Here’s an excerpt from the column. Success is a journey not a destination. — Anonymous Many of us act as if success is a permanent state that we’re working to reach. We think, “One day, I’m finally going to […]

 

Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy When You’re A Clown Who’s Cheesy

Posted on by John Hawkins

Someone is suing McDonald’s, but not because she ate too many Double Cheeseburgers and had a heart attack. No, instead, she’s moved on to the next logical step — suing McDonald’s for making her into a prostitute…ehr wait, what? A woman is suing McDonald’s USA because she claims she was forced into a life of […]

 

Why Should Republicans Support A Candidate Who Doesn’t Share Their Values?

Posted on by John Hawkins

David Brooks, who’s not a conservative and probably only continues to call himself a Republican so he can hold a job as a David Frum-style dancing monkey, who criticizes “his own side” for the amusement of the Left, is kvetching because a candidate he liked left the Republican Party. Nathan Fletcher was raised in Arkansas, […]

 

Eco-Scams Are as Easy as “A123”

Posted on by Michelle Malkin

While President Obama was busy lambasting Big Oil tax breaks on Thursday, yet another one of his environmental welfare recipients (the very kind he wants to redistribute oil subsidies to) was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. Who needs to win the Mega Millions lottery? Start a pie-in-the-sky eco-boondoggle, and a half-billion-dollar jackpot ripe for […]

 

Conservative interpretations

Posted on by Jonah Goldberg

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg likes the Indian Healthcare Improvement Act and other ingredients of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, aka “ObamaCare.” Why, she asked toward the end of three days of hearings, shouldn’t the court keep the good stuff in ObamaCare and just dump the unconstitutional bits? The court, she explained, […]

 

Obama Doubling Down on His Leftist Radicalism

Posted on by David Limbaugh

You can’t even casually surf the Internet on any given day without numerous reminders of just how radical President Obama is — and this is during an election year, when it should be in his political interest to mask his radicalism. Minding my own business, I happened on an article by Jacob Laksin on FrontPageMag.com, […]

 

Some interesting history about the inspiration behind Florida’s lawsuit against ObamaCare

Posted on by Sunshine State Sarah

This week, the United States Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the case of: Florida vs. United States Department of Health and Human Services: (for an excellent recap,: please see this write-up by the Texas Public Policy Foundation), the lawsuit filed by the State of Florida against the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, aka “ObamaCare.” Florida’s previous […]

 

Lefty Group Calling for Disclosure of Conservative Donors has Felon as Advisor

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Recently the Washington Post had a story about a coalition of left-wing advocacy groups calling for their counterparts on the conservative side to reveal all their donors even though the law does not require it. The Post feels the crusade is a bit odd since most of the lefty groups doing the complaining also don’t […]

 

Shame On ESPN For Christian Bigotry

Posted on by Kathleen McKinley

Blake Koch is a young NASCAR driver who filmed this ad to get NASCAR fans to vote. ESPN rejected it saying it had “religious and political overtones.” It CLEARLY has no religious overtones whatsoever, and other than encouraging people to vote, it has no political overtones. It doesn’t endorse a party or a person. BUT […]

 

E.J. Dionne Works Hard To Spin A Possible Defeat Of The Individual Mandate

Posted on by William Teach

As we await the decision from the Supreme Court regarding the Mandate, and perhaps even the striking down of Obamacare, liberals are searching hard for ways to show that the problem wasn’t the law, but with the people who rule on the law. I highlighted a bit of that yesterday. And here comes ultra-liberal E.J. […]

 

Ooops: Chicago Trib Starts an Article on Education Misusing Words!

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Clarence Page wrote an excellent article questioning whether or not our students are actually learning anything, most especially critical thinking skills, at our colleges and universities. Unfortunately, his very first sentence commits what I feel is both a major grammatical error and an unnecessary paean to PCism. First, let me temper this little quibble — […]

 

The Fake Trayvon Martin Flipping The Bird Pic Vs. The Real Trayvon Martin Flipping The Bird Pic

Posted on by John Hawkins

In an extraordinary show of bias, this picture has been the face of Trayvon Martin in the media. Trayvon looks to be, I don’t know, maybe 12 years old in this pic? Now, the MSM certainly has no obligation to use the most up to date pictures of anyone, but when you use a childhood […]

 

The Left’s War On Women: A Day In The Life Of Michelle Malkin On Twitter (Explicit Language)

Posted on by John Hawkins

One of the latest liberal talking points is that conservatives are waging a “war on women” because they won’t agree that the Pope should be forced to buy everyone’s birth control. In other words, it’s completely imaginary. You want to see what a real “war on women” looks like? Start watching the way vile, misogynistic […]
