Surprise! Harry Reid, Democrats, Say No To Any 2012 Or 2013 Budget Bill

Posted on by William Teach

This is getting rather repetitive (Washington Examiner) “Let’s see it,” a frustrated Sen.

Supreme Court Justice Ginsberg To Egypt: “Don’t Look To That Stuffy Old US Constitution As A Model”

Posted on by William Teach

MEMRI has the video of an interview with sitting US Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg with Al-Hayat TV on January 30, 2012.

Liberals Go Apoplectic Over Komen Foundation No Longer Providing Funds To Planned Parenthood

Posted on by William Teach

Personally, like Rush Limbaugh and Neal Boortz, I tend to avoid the abortion debate, mostly because it is not one of my core political interests. That said, watching Liberals go apoplectic, bat guano crazy, and spin like a neutron star is one of more core blogging interests, and this story has sent them over the […]

Mostly Peaceful Oakland Occupiers Mostly Peaceful To The Tune Of 300 Arrested

Posted on by William Teach

You have to wonder if the Democrat big wigs are starting to get a bit nervous about the Occupiers, wondering if they will continue to be “mostly peaceful” up to the election, and particularly during the Republican and Democratic National Conventions.

Vogel and Alexander Burns are surely going to earn an expletive laden call from the White House for publishing this story (Politico) Democrats have seized on Republicans as the party of unlimited secret money.

16 Concerned Scientists: Chill Out, No Need To Freak Over Anthropogenic Global Warming

Posted on by William Teach

Why? Because “There’s no compelling scientific argument for drastic action to ‘decarbonize’ the world’s economy.” After a few paragraphs describing how not every scientist is a Warmist, and the numbers who are opting out of previous held beliefs that Mankind is mostly or solely at fault, we get to (h/t Climate Depot) (Wall Street Journal) […]

 

Narcissistic (And Incompetent) President Wants Second Term “Badly”

Posted on by William Teach

Quite obviously, there has to be a bit of narcissism in any person who wants to run for the presidency. Yet, with Barack Obama, everything seems to be all about himself. Does anyone get the feeling that Obama wants to be president to help anyone, to be a good steward of the United States as […]

 

Gingrich Sorta Calls For Amnesty For Some Illegals

Obama SOTU 2012: An America Built To Last Like A Chevy Volt

Posted on by William Teach

OK, I’ll admit, I only watched about 5 minutes of Obama’s SOTU speech. I’d been watching the NJ Devils lose in OT, and inadvertently hit the recall button on the remote, which took me to Fox News. A few minutes in, I decided that I really didn’t want to attend an Obama campaign speech, so, […]

Posted on by William Teach

And you will never guess whose playbook he will use (Fox News) As President Obama prepares to rev up his re-election drive with his third State of the Union address Tuesday night, he and his aides have already begun framing the fall contest as a “choice” election, not a simple up-or-down referendum on his own […]

 

Larry Summers Economic Memo To Obama: The Stimulus Was Never About Stimulus

Posted on by William Teach

The New Yorker has a lengthy piece on Barack Obama and his rise to power (which never seems to mention starting his political career in the living room of unrepentant domestic terrorist William Ayers), making Obama out to be some sort of anointed one who always spoke about Americans coming together, but, gosh darnit, too […]
