Barack Obama is the single least qualified candidate running for the presidency, on either side, and he wouldn’t have the slightest chance to win the Democratic nomination or the presidency if he weren’t black. So, if he were to get elected, wouldn’t that make him the first Affirmative Action President?

As you may have heard, Nancy Reagan fell yesterday and hurt herself. The good news was that she apparently didn’t seriously hurt herself. The bad news is that story was posted at the Huffington Post, which is notorious for wishing death, injury, and general ill will towards anyone associated with conservatism and the Republican Party […]

Code Pink and the gang of anti-American trash that shows up at their rallies were holding an anti-Marines Corps rally at Berkeley last week-end and America’s best protest photographer, Zombie from Zombietime, showed up to cover the profanity, hated, and loathing of our troops that has become so common on the Left these days.

“The Obama campaign seems dangerously close to becoming a cult of personality.” — Paul Krugman If even Paul Krugman is willing to publicly admit that Barack Obama is a human featherball — a slick, smiling, substance-free empty suit who excites gullible dimwits by repeating the words “change,” “unity,” and “hope” over and over — then […]

Question: “Since McCain has all but wrapped up the Republican nomination, assuming he is voted in as President, what kind of judges do you think he would appoint?
