Attack Of The Angry Obama

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

President Obama believes war is the answer. Or, at least it seems that way: Barack Obama has decided that fiery self defense and withering mockery of Republicans are the best modes of attack as he tries to save Democrats from a drubbing in November’s mid-term elections. The US president road-tested his pitch to grassroots Democrats […]

 

Is America Ready For President Palin?

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

I’m asking because it sure seems like she’s getting ready to run. People bring up Hillary Clinton’s negatives, but that just points out the obvious: Barack Obama won, Hillary Clinton lost. It wasn’t just her liberal policies and her grating voice. It’s that she was a woman. What are Sarah Palin’s favorables with women? With […]

 

Systematic Democratic Voter Fraud: Ho Hum

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Where is all the talk of disenfranchised voters? Remember them? When Al Gore was on the losing side of the equation, disenfranchised voters were all the rage. So popular, those voters. Now, when the disenfranchised voters are, well not minorities, being disenfranchised is fine. John Fund asks who will investigate the investigators. So far, no […]

 

How Bad Is Obamacare? How Evil? This Evil.

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

How evil is Obamacare? Donald Berwick bad. 1. The Obama administration doesn’t want to talk about health care in any forum. Ever. 2. The Democrats are outraged about the recess appointment of the new Medicare/Medicaid chief, too. 3. Obamcare, aka Romneycare, has been in action in Massachusetts and it’s a disaster. Or, according to the […]

 

Murdering: It’s Not My Fault, It’s Genetic

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

If a doctor says it’s true, it must be true! If science says it’s so, it must be so. Except for when it isn’t. Except for when the science isn’t settled…and science is never settled. Should a man get let off for hacking someone to pieces because he has the genetic marker called the “warrior […]

 

Daily Kos & Research 2000: A Marriage Made In Bias Heaven

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

So, these two self-absorbed, narcissistic “in crowd” people hook up, get married and together, they have a smugly satisfying good run. People looking from the outside thought, honey, I don’t think he’s what he’s advertising. But you know what they say about love…. And then, shock! He’s a creep. Everyone else saw it, well, those […]

 

Elena Kagan Writes The Partial Birth Abortion Language For The American College Of Obstetricians and Gynecologists: FILIBUSTER HER, UPDATED

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

I knew science was political. And I knew political types like to monkey with science. But this action by Elena Kagan should disqualify her from the Supreme Court. In addition, the ACOG should be abandoned by science-minded doctors. Here’s the story: It seems that the most important statement in the famous position paper of the […]

 

Obama’s Deadly Deadline: What President Obama Really Wants In Afghanistan

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Marc Theissen has an excellent piece today about Afghanistan and President Obama’s deadlines: The deadline is more than a tactical error; it is a strategic miscalculation that undermines almost every element of our efforts in Afghanistan. A withdrawal date undermines the very premise of a counterinsurgency strategy — that by protecting the population, you can […]

 

President Obama In On The Blago Senate Seat Sale?

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Buds for life? Well, it would be unsurprising. Good buddies old Rod and the Prez. And look at President Obama’s willingness to trade influence for a desired action. The Sun Times has some interesting news: (via Cubachi on Twitter): A top aide to former Gov. Rod Blagojevich said he believed Barack Obama knew of Blagojevich’s […]

 

Democrats Create Instability

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

While they like to think of themselves as “nuanced”, they’re really unprincipled and thrown hither and thither by every trendy wind of expert opinion. This makes a mess for the Market and for the American people trying to make business decisions in an already unstable environment. When people know what to expect, they can plan […]

 

McChrystal Out, Petraeus In

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

President Obama firing General Stanley McChrystal today seems all rather anti-climactic after yesterday’s drama. Couple thoughts: 1. I wonder if the troops will be happy with this decision. 2. I wonder if the buttheads in the administration will get the ax? 3. I bet McChrystal is relieved to be out of that difficult situation. 4. […]

 

Do You Want To Submit? Because In Michigan, They’re Submitting

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Powerline reports this: Under Sharia law, it is forbidden to proselytize to Muslims, and no Muslim can leave the faith. Dearborn, Michigan, is home to a substantial Muslim population, and there is strong evidence that local authorities now enforce sharia in preference to the Constitution of the United States. Thus this Associated Press story about […]

 

Doctors Sick Of Medicare, Limiting Government Patients

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Well, this is utterly unsurprising. And the article undersells what the docs are doing. Many are quitting Medicare entirely: The number of doctors refusing new Medicare patients because of low government payment rates is setting a new high, just six months before millions of Baby Boomers begin enrolling in the government health care program. Recent […]

 

Politician Evil: How Loyal Is Too Loyal?

Now that it turns out that Choir Boy (he most certainly Was Not listening to rap music, sheesh) Albert Gore Jr. is also an alleged trouser snake, details begin to emerge. I’ve been assured by one source that Vice President Gore, aka pre-Gaia Apostle Gore, also had a string of teh ladiez. And staffers knew. […]

 

Afghanistan Is Loaded

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Who knew? This land-locked throw-back tribal country is sitting on vast wealth. What does it mean? By Melissa Clouthier Well, unless America is willing to go colonial and impose civilization on these folks, it will mean more infighting and civil war. Is this news a way to justify staying in Afghanistan because the president sees […]

 

Afghanistan, The Longest War & Staying The Course

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Today, the Huffington Post headlines Afghanistan and also today, I had the pleasure of having Michael Franzak, Afghan veteran and author of the Afghanistan war memoir A Nightmare’s Prayer: A marine harrier pilot’s war in Afghanistan. The contrasts couldn’t be more stark. The Huffington Post paints a dire pictureand headlines an op-ed urging President Obama […]

 

Why Are Feminists Unhappy About Republican Ladies Winning? Feminism, Ladies, Is Not About Women–UPDATED

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Rachel Larimore of Slate asks where the Rah-Rah Sisterhood is hanging out after so many women women won in the Republican primaries yesterday. Really, Rachel? This is a head scratcher for you? You’ve watched conservative women being savaged by liberal reporters and pundits over the last year and half and you’re still fuzzy on why […]

 

This Is Why People Believe President Obama Hates Israel….Oh, And America, Too

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Over at Exurban Jon’s place I read this from CNN and felt sick to my stomach: “The United States will contribute $400 million in development aid to the Palestinian territories and work with Israel to loosen its embargo on Gaza, President Barack Obama said Wednesday. Obama’s announcement came after White House talks with Palestinian Authority […]
