Common sense wins in Florida for a change: Lawmakers approved the so-called “Pop-Tart” bill after an 8-year-old Maryland boy earned a suspension for biting a Pop-Tart into the shape of a gun last year.

Never bring a knife to a gun fight: Don Pitaniello, 58, said he was about to close the store just before 9:30 p.m. on Sunday when a man wearing a hoodie and a bandana over his face entered holding a 5-inch blade and a bag, likely for cash. The clerk says he knew exactly what […]

Remember when Sen. John McCain took that tour of Syria with the rebels?

Just because you fight for this country doesn’t mean you can go around respecting it and stuff.

Who knew there were that many spines? Not me: President Barack Obama has acted so unlawfully that he ‘probably’ wouldn’t survive an impeachment vote in the House of Representatives, Republican Rep. Lou Barletta told a radio host on Monday. ‘He’s just absolutely ignoring the Constitution, and ignoring the laws and ignoring the checks and balances,’ […]

The surprising part of this video isn’t that the Obama Administration is waging a war on Coal. It’s that they so freely admit it. It was my understanding that the truth was a foreign language to these folks: “Last week, [you] announced, I think it was called ‘the clean power program,’” Maher said. “Some people […]

When seconds count, the police are minutes away. That is, if you can get a hold of them: The dispatcher tried to transfer the call from the fire department to law enforcement side of things — but he got a voicemail just as the crooks returned to the home. Chaos ensues. The man takes matters […]

And she’s right. : At least Nixon had the courtesy to resign in disgrace: “Remember the 18 minute gap in Nixon’s White House tapes during the Watergate scandal? Now Obama’s IRS top dog claims a communications gap of 1,052,000 minutes,” Palin: said. “Hmm. Wonder if the press will recognize similarities. Maybe a smidgen?” She wondered what would […]

Remember when California was a free land? Yeah, me neither. But I’m told there was a time. Today, it’s run by tyrants and nutjobs. For example: According to the NRA-ILA: “If passed and enacted into law, SB 53 would require the collection and reporting of personal consumer information and thumbprinting for all ammunition purchases throughout […]

Gov. John Hickenlooper signed a bunch of really bad gun laws while in office. Bad enough that governors across the state actually sued him. Now that it’s an election year, he’s really sorry about that: Governor John Hickenlooper is offering an apology to some of his fiercest rivals on the issue of gun control: Colorado’s […]

This lie rates up there with Big Sis telling us the border is more secure than ever: [B]ut this country has always been built both through an individual initiative, but also a sense of some common purpose. And if there’s one message I want to deliver to young people like a Tumblr audience is, don’t […]

The failures and mistakes from this administration are legion and growing: The FBI “most wanted” mugshot shows a tough, swarthy figure, his hair in a jailbird crew-cut. The $10 million price on his head, meanwhile, suggests that whoever released him from US custody four years ago may now be regretting it. Taken during his years […]

Before watching this, I think it’s important we remember why Obama chose Joe for his running mate. It was because Obama was weak on foreign policy. Joe supposedly brought the wisdom and insight to that area. If that’s true, Obama’s clueless. From what we’ve see, it’s true: I am very optimistic about Iraq. I think […]

In other news, water is wet and the sky is blue: “This is not a humanitarian crisis. It is a predictable, orchestrated and contrived assault on the compassionate side of Americans by her political leaders that knowingly puts minor illegal alien children at risk for purely political purposes,” said the statement released by the National […]

Why wouldn’t he? What’s going to happen? Is Sen. Harry Reid going to entertain articles of impeachment? Please.

White House principal deputy press secretary Josh […]

This former VA worker in Kansas City said that while the director of the plant operations at the Kansas City VA hospital was receiving bonuses for coming in under budget, it was only because necessary repairs and maintenance wasn’t being performed on the facility.

When you’re doing backflips to justify Obama’s illegal actions, you’re going to say some stupid things: According to sources, Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., made the comparison during a House briefing late Monday with administration officials on the trade of Taliban members for American Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. Nadler apparently made the point that the Taliban, as […]

You remember when you could Google “miserable failure” and the top search was George Bush. There’s a new player in town: That’s awesome. Obama’s foreign policy is a miserable failure.

Guns save lives, in this case, possibly the lives of a seventeen year old girl, her mother and father and a five year old boy. When the girl was getting something out of her car, two thugs got the drop on her, one of them putting a gun to her head and telling her to […]

Not only do they have Stingers, but, they can be traced back to Qatar, where we just sent the Gitmo 5. This should end well: The Obama administration isn’t only giving the Taliban back its commanders – it’s giving them weapons. Miliary records and sources reveal that on July 25, 2012, Taliban fighters in Kunar […]

The last time I was in Tijuana, Mexico, I ate not one, but two hot dogs from a street vendor. : They were wrapped in bacon and delicious. : I’m told that wasn’t a good idea. : I thought differently. : However, had those dogs made me sick, it wouldn’t have been the lack of sanitary conditions that come […]

When Sen. Diane Feinstein says the exchange of five Taliban leaders for one deserter was “totally not following the law,” you know you have grounds for impeachment. Judge Jeanine Pirro lists that as just ONE of the reasons it’s time to move on impeachment: “You are not a true commander-in-chief. We have impeached a president […]

Un. Be. Lievable. From The Right Scoop: Whatever you may think of McCain’s career as a Republican senator, it’s reprehensible to make a comparison between his captivity and Bergdahl’s desertion. When McCain was given the opportunity to leave the torture camp and go home in order to help his torturer’s propaganda campaign, he refused, saying […]

So a man who claims to have been hearing voices and was suicidal walked out into traffic and attracted a crowd. : The NYPD responded and ended up shooting at the guy, hitting a few folks the crowd.
