Jeb Bush: Statist Crusader for Common Core

Posted on by Dave Blount

They say Jeb Bush is currently leading the pack among Republican presidential candidates. The reasons to oppose his candidacy tooth and nail are too numerous to list here, but this one would suffice all by itself: Jeb Bush never wavered in his support for the Common Core state standards — not even after the education […]

 

How Al Sharpton Got His Own TV Show

Posted on by Dave Blount

Al Sharpton is generally regarded as a lowlife — a tax-dodging socialist and professional race baiter who has gotten numerous people killed in pogroms. (For those not familiar with his worst outrages against decency, Ben Shapiro provides a quick rundown.) Sharpton is not regarded by anyone as a gifted television anchor. Yet he has his […]

 

Sprinkles to Be Banned by FDA

Posted on by Dave Blount

Not even Stalin’s tyranny would have banned the sprinkles kids like on ice cream (assuming you could find any sprinkles or any ice cream in a communist country). But Obama’s tyranny would. Sprinkles, you see, contain politically incorrect trans fats: Early next year, the FDA is expected to finalize a new regulation intended to eradicate […]

 

Bid for EPA to Regulate Ammunition Shot Down

Posted on by Dave Blount

If all you wanted for Christmas was a little good news for a change, here you go. A favorite tactic of Obama’s EPA is to conspire with radical activists outside the government to be sued into extending its tyranny ever further into our lives. Fortunately, despite the increasing glut of leftist judges, this doesn’t always […]

 

Judge Laura Johnson Frees Thug Who Assaulted Police

Posted on by Dave Blount

The societal blight that was marketed as Hope & Change will continue to cripple our country long after Obama has left power, if only because of the many left-wing judges he has been appointing throughout the judicial system. To get an idea of the kind of damage liberal judges can cause to society, look no […]

 

Public Pension Doom Begins to Descend

Posted on by Dave Blount

Grotesquely extravagant public sector pensions are a Sword of Damocles hanging over the economy. The thread preventing this sword from coming down on our heads is starting to fray. In Pennsylvania, localities are jacking up taxes in a desperate attempt to meet their obligations. In Lancaster: Lancaster city taxpayers will see an increase in their […]

 

USA Offering $5 Million Reward for Terrorist Released From Club Gitmo

Posted on by Dave Blount

What happens when liberal authorities release the worst-of-the-worst Muslim terrorists vacationing at Club Gitmo? They return to their terrorist activities, as any idiot would be able to foresee. What happens then? The US government attempts to capture them again — at considerable expense. Take the case of Saudi national Ibrahim al-Rubaysh: In late 2006 the […]

 

Government Wastes Our Money on “Mindfulness Meditation”

Posted on by Dave Blount

Big Government has been aggressively expanding its ever-encroaching hegemony in the healthcare field. Our government is run largely by kooks. Consequently, “mindfulness meditation” as a medical treatment is gaining a foothold: “The advantage of this is that it actually doesn’t cost anything,” said Karen May, a vice president at Google, explaining how her company offers […]

 

Taliban Runs With Democrats’ Phony “Torture” Report

Posted on by Dave Blount

Dianne Feinstein’s bogus “torture” report may not have gone far enough in its condemnation of America to please the liberal thought-shapers at Salon, but the Taliban, who as Islamic terrorists will be among its beneficiaries, seem quite pleased: The Taliban has called for an international investigation into the human rights standards of the United States […]

 

Salon: America Has Always Been Garbage

Posted on by Dave Blount

When you watch reprobates like Dianne Feinstein and Hanoi John Kerry sanctimoniously denounce their country for being mean to put-upon terrorists, you might imagine that at least the phony “torture” report has pushed the anti-American envelope as far as it can go. Wrong. Since left-wing hatred of everything America has traditionally stood for is as […]

 

While Country Crumbles, Democrats Address the Needs of Transgender Illegal Alien Children

Posted on by Dave Blount

Don’t blame Democrats for refusing to address problems like the $18 trillion debt, the erosion of American influence, the rogue nature of the executive branch under Obama, Putin’s reconstitution of the Soviet Union, China’s expansion into our former sphere of influence, the rise of ISIS, continuing Islamic terror, Iran’s race to acquire nuclear weapons, the […]

 

FDNY Lowers Physical Standards to Promote Diversity at the Expense of Public Safety

Posted on by Dave Blount

In a totalitarian society, nothing matters except the officially correct ideology — not even public safety, as the New York Fire Department confirms: The Fire Department has stopped requiring probationary firefighters to pass a job-related physical-skills test before getting hired — a move that critics derided as a lowering of standards. Why would a fire […]

 

How North Korea Deals With the Disabled

Posted on by Dave Blount

If you want to know what government-dominated healthcare will be like when statists are able to take it to its ultimate extreme, have a look at the country that has taken statism itself to the ultimate extreme — North Korea: North Korea is systematically “cleansing” its population by making those with mental or physical disabilities […]

 

Egged On by Obama, Looting Continues

Posted on by Dave Blount

The supposedly peaceful demonstrators Obama has urged to “stay on course” have taken his advice; they are still at it. Near San Francisco: A group of protesters overwhelmed the police force in Emeryville Tuesday night, ransacking a Pak N Save store and stealing liquor and cigarettes from other stores, authorities said. Emeryville police spokesman Brian […]

 

Republicans Make Bold Stand on Light Bulbs, Cave on Amnesty and ObamaCare

Posted on by Dave Blount

Great news — Congress has discovered that the Founding Fathers granted it the power of the purse so as to prevent an unscrupulous president like Obama from establishing a de facto dictatorship. Look how boldly they temporarily rescued Thomas Edison’s iconic incandescent light bulb from being banned by liberals: [The recently unveiled funding] bill prohibits […]

 

Obama Mentor Michael Pfleger Plays His Part in the Michael Brown/Eric Garner Spectacle

Posted on by Dave Blount

The infamous America-hater Jeremiah Wright isn’t the only kooky cleric to figure prominently in Obama’s radical background. There is also Michael Pfleger: Friends and advisers, such as the Rev. Michael Pfleger, pastor of St. Sabina Roman Catholic Church in the Auburn-Gresham community on the South Side, who has known Obama for the better part of […]

 

Harvard Law Students Demand Exams Be Postponed out of Sheer Ferguson Foolishness as at Columbia

Posted on by Dave Blount

Inspired by the almost unbelievably contemptible example of Columbia University, Harvard Law School students have demanded that exams be delayed because they are upset that Darren Wilson and Daniel Pantaleo were not offered up as sacrificial victims to the liberal god, political correctness. This letter from the Harvard Law School Affinity Group Coalition provides alarming […]

 

Jonathan Gruber and the Progressive Link to Genocide

Posted on by Dave Blount

ObamaCare architect Jonathan Gruber did us a favor by confirming that ObamaCare was packaged in deliberate lies, and that the elitists who imposed it hold the American people in contempt. He has done us another by reminding us of the family relation between modern liberalism and Nazism. Gruber’s abortion advocacy is of a particularly pungent […]

 

Democrats and the California Drought

Posted on by Dave Blount

Enjoying the drought, Californians? If so, be sure to show your gratitude by continuing to support Democrats. Dianne Feinstein temporarily went wobbly on imposing the worst effects of the drought, but hardcore moonbats like Obama and Barbara Boxer have her back in line: On Monday House Republicans debated a bill crafted in part by Democratic […]
