Did The Sarah Palin Emails Kill Trig Trutherism Once And For All?

Posted on by John Hawkins

The deluge of Sarah Palin emails released by Alaska hasn’t been all that interesting overall, but there was one fascinating little nugget that definitively shoots down a left-wing conspiracy theory. Andrew Sullivan, among others, have long been bizarrely asserting, against all available evidence, that Sarah Palin faked her pregnancy with Trig. This is, of course, […]

 

John Ziegler Turns On Sarah Palin

Posted on by John Hawkins

John Ziegler has spent the last few years acting as an unappointed Sarah Palin spokesman/fan boy. Apparently, he’s decided that there’s more profit to be made as an ex-unappointed Sarah Palin spokesman/fan boy because he wrote a negative piece about her for the Daily Caller.

Over at anti-American U AKA Goshen College, they’ve banned the Star Spangled Banner — even if they’re too gutless to tell the truth about it.

Liberals Fight To Keep Welfare Recipients Addicted To Drugs

Posted on by John Hawkins

You’d think that stopping welfare checks from being spent on crack would be a relatively non-controversial proposal, but you’d be wrong since there are liberals involved. Florida Gov. Rick Scott on Sunday defended recent legislation that requires adults applying for welfare assistance to undergo drug screenings, saying the law provides “personal accountability.” “It’s not right […]
