Obama proposes $60.4 Billion for Sandy relief, whatever happened to cutting spending?

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

President Barack Obama formally asked Congress Friday for $60.4 billion to help states such as New Jersey and New York rebuild in the […]

 

Rob Andrews, swamp dweller

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Remember when Nancy Pelosi promised to “drain the swamp” in Congress? Yeah, me neither. So imagine my surprise when the House Ethics Committee announced on Friday that their investigation of Rep.

Now more than ever we must continue praying for religious freedom

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Since it is now proven that Obamacare is a tax, Father Z has a most excellent question: Isn’t it now the case that if the Obama Administration punishes St. Ipsidipsy Catholic Hospital in Black Duck for refusing to provide employees their abortifacient pills, then the Federal Government is taxing the exercise of religion? Why yes, […]

 

How liberals spin Obama’s “govt vs private sector” gaffe: Romney hates cops!

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Well that didn’t take long. The lame-stream media, always prepared to carry Obama’s water, is hitting back at Mitt Romney. Because Romney dared to point out the foolishness of Obama’s “the private sector is doing OK, we need more public employee unionistas” remark from yesterday. Their spin? Romney hates cops. Presumably because he hasn’t called […]

 

Planned Parenthood head says “keep politics out of women’s health”

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Sometimes liberals say the funniest things! Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards spoke at Princeton University this week.

The Divergent Judicial Careers of Phillip Kwon and Elena Kagan

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

NJ Democrats rejected Governor Chris Christie’s nomination of Phillip Kwon to the State Supreme Court. Why? Because he’s a Republican. And he’s on the staff of the Attorney General’s office.

Fella’s Favorite Feminist Flubs Federalism, Feeds Family Fallacious Foolishness

Do you guys remember my favorite feminist? I came across her again while voting for Political Junkie Mom in the Top 25 Political Moms poll. (You should go vote for PJmom too!) This week PunditMom explains the contraception debate to her 12-year-old daughter, who asks, “Mom, why don’t you and dad like Rick Santorum?” And […]

 

Shocker, Obama bundler and MF Global honcho Jon Corzine is unlikely to face criminal charges

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Well the feds shuffled a few papers, peeked into a desk drawer or two at MF Global, and shockingly found nothing criminal with which to charge Jon Corzine, or anyone else. $1.2 billion dollars in customer money went poof! and federal investigators have been “unable to find a smoking gun.” As if Eric Holder’s Injustice […]

Mitt Romney, the liberal Democrat’s choice for president

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

It was Christmas Holiday party weekend in the neighborhood. Interestingly several folks approached me to say essentially the same thing – “Will you guys* please stop screwing around and just nominate Mitt Romney. Otherwise we’ll be forced to vote for Obama again.” *I’m the token Republican in a sea of blue state leftists, so naturally […]

 

Yowzah, I scored big bucks from the Ticketmaster class action lawsuit!

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Today must be my lucky day. In my email was an Official Notice, from some lawyers I’d never heard of, announcing with great fanfare the favorable settlement of a class-action lawsuit brought on my behalf against Ticketmaster. Apparently it’s a Real Thing, because it made the news. Anyway, I’m entitled to some coupons! For a […]

 

Their Arab brothers should fund Palestinian Hamasistan, not us

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Gee, it’s about time. The United States Congress has blocked nearly $200m in aid for the Palestinians, threatening projects such as food aid, health care, and support for efforts to build a functioning state. Yeah, because only the United States can fund “food aid” and “health care” for terrorist monsters! Hamas has plenty of Arab […]

Oh great, Green Power will screw up the electrical grid and make our clocks run fast

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Starting next month the clock on your oven will probably be wrong. No, it won’t be broken, but the electric current it relies on to count the minutes will start deviating from the tried and true standard of 60 cycles per second. Since 1930, electric clocks have kept time based on the rate of the […]

Rutgers student pleads guilty to ThoughtCrime

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

So now our state is prosecuting ThoughtCrime. Under penalty of incarceration Rutgers student Molly Wei will enter a re-education camp for indoctrination into “alternate lifestyles.” The State will wash away all of her improper thoughts. No doubt she will emerge a good little automaton eager to do the bidding of her INGSOC masters. And boy […]

 

FCC net neutrality mavens impose forced wireless broadband sharing

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

Maybe now that Congress is done haggling over miniscule budget cuts they can return their attention to the Obama Administration’s net neutrality power grab. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is hell-bent on redistributing the networks built by AT&T and Verizon to every penny ante bit player who comes along. Why build your own wireless network when […]

It’s the kind of inside baseball political battle that cures most people’s insomnia — the decennial redrawing of NJ’s legislative districts. But the stakes couldn’t be higher because shifting some lines on a map can have far-reaching consequences for the future of our state.

TSA wants your DNA

I’ll bet you thought the TSA’s “enhanced” patdown procedures could not possibly get more invasive. Think again. Beginning this summer TSA will start collecting travelers’ DNA.

Gay activists target Chick-Fil-A

Posted on by Chris Wysocki

To the proponents of the radical homosexual agenda tolerance only goes one way. We must tolerate them, or else. As for their tolerance toward others, not so much. The latest target of their ire is Chick-Fil-A. The restaurant chain is under fire because, horror of horrors, a single local franchisee promised to donate some sandwiches […]

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer appeared on Fox News Sunday this morning. He spoke to his interpretation of the Founding Fathers’ intent with regard to gun control.
