Posted on by John Hawkins

If they were really pulling themselves apart to examine what makes them tick, that could be very useful. And within a few months they wouldn’t be leftists anymore. What they do, always, is pretend to be speaking of themselves — “We must do better” — but their use of “We” is a very odd one. […]

A Lefty Professor’s Rant Recorded

Posted on by Dave Blount

With its Hugo Chavez-esque nationalization of the student loan industry, the Obama Regime laid the groundwork for universal publicly financed college education. This makes perfect sense as a component of the Cloward-Piven plan. It also makes sense for the sake of spreading ideology, considering what students are learning in school, to judge from a video […]

County Board Votes To Secede from California

Posted on by John Hawkins

Given the awful government of California and the nearly insurmountable fiscal problems that state has, is this really such a bad idea?

Liberals in the Media Upset About ‘Obama Presidential Library’ Sign…..On An Outhouse

Posted on by John Hawkins

It’s amazing to see liberals in the media trying to prompt the city into finding a code violation on someone’s private property because they don’t like the anti-Obama message, but sadly, it’s not surprising. Conservatives believe the best way to fight free speech is with more free speech while liberals believe in using the power […]

 

Republican Congressman Goes After John Kerry Hard On Benghazi During Syria Hearing

Posted on by John Hawkins

Obama and his administration can’t give any kind of coherent explanation of what went wrong at Benghazi, but they tell us that they know definitively that their as-of-yet unrevealed strategy in Syria will work. John Boehner and Eric Cantor may have already buckled at the knees, but Republican Congressman Jeff Duncan (R-S.C.) wants a few […]

Same old, same old in Syria

Posted on by Victor Davis Hanson

President Obama’s on-and-off-again planned American attack on Syria is nothing new. Besides its five declared wars, America has a habit of intervening all over the world. Even apart from clandestine CIA operations, and even after the unhappy end of the Vietnam War, we have attacked lots of countries and non-state militias. The roll call of […]

 

Obama’s Syrian ‘Red Line’ — Now What?

Posted on by Larry Elder

Sen. Barack Obama snatched the 2008 democratic nomination from Sen. Hillary Clinton for many reasons, none more important than Obama’s opposition to the Iraq War. All of Obama’s major opponents — Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., then-Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., former Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C. and then-Sen. Clinton, D-N.Y. — had voted for authorization for war. […]

Federal Court Says Using ‘N’ Word at Work is Illegal Even if You’re Black

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

A court in New York has decided that even blacks should not be allowed to use the word “nig**r” at work. I have to say, at some point I have to agree with this verdict. If African Americans can oppress the free speech of white people for using the word “nig**r,” then why should they […]

Political Apathy Destroying Middle Class Comforts

Posted on by Rachel Alexander

Many refuse to get involved in politics because they believe their efforts are so insignificant it is not worth the time.

Although it may be difficult to get much accomplished in government, these civic dropouts are forgetting one crucial […]

 

Warmists Now Claim “Climate Change” Will Steer Big Hurricanes Away From East Coast

Posted on by William Teach

Wow, Even Charlie Rangel Is Making Fun Of Obama Over Syria

Posted on by John Hawkins

Don’t kid yourself about the Democrats on Syria. Many of the very same liberals who screamed “Blood for Oil” and “Rush to War” when Bush was in office will fall right in line behind Obama in his misguided attempt to help Al-Qaeda in Syria. Still, you can expect that there will be a few consistent […]
