Obama’s Newest Racemongering Judge: California’s Edward Chen

President Obama has gone out of his way to “diversify” the federal bench with his spate of nominations of various minorities chief of which was his successful seating of the “wise Latina,’ Sonia Sotomayor, on the Supreme Court. Obama’s nominees* for 10 district court openings include four African-Americans, three Asian-Americans, one Latino and four women. […]

 

CNN: ‘Disingenuous Insurance Companies’ or Disingenuous Reporting?

On October 13 CNN’s John Roberts conducted an interview with purported “insurance industry insider” Wendell Potter who claimed that the disingenuous actions of the insurance industry made him “decide to become a critic of the industry.” Mr. Potter is a former head of Public Relations of the CIGNA Corp and Humana, Inc. but he is […]

 

Brave Mom Fights Forced Unionization and Gov. Quinn

We’ve been reporting to you of the outrageous under-the-radar actions of Governor Pat Quinn and his Executive Order 9-15. This EO both handed the private information of Illinois citizens to unions and set up a payoff for his union supporters by automatically unionizing hundreds of Illinois home healthcare workers whether they want to be unionized […]

 

Healthcare Conference Call With Representatives Shadegg and Rodgers

Today at 4:30PM eastern a blogger conference call was held by Representatives John Shadegg (R, AZ) and Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R, WA). The subject we spoke about was that of House Republican’s ideas and problems on healthcare reform issues in both the Senate and the House. The following are my notes of the call, any […]

 

Why Do Hampton U’s Black Students Hate White People?

Hampton University in Virginia made a huge mistake. They took Barack Obama’s post racial world idea and, thinking it was already here, anointed a white chick as its “Miss Hampton University” pageant winner. Now some of the black students are mad that the traditionally black university named a white girl as “Miss Hampton U.” Ooopsie. […]

 

Carly Fiorina: A Possible Fit for Conservatives?

Cary Fiorina, former Hewlett-Packard CEO and probable candidate for U.S. Senate from California, is starting to look like a viable choice for conservative voters in the Golden State, giving the GOP two conservatives from whom to chose. Fiorina’s bona fides have been a question to many California Republicans because she is a relative newcomer to […]

 

ABC News: Global Warming ‘Helps Taliban, al Qaeda’

Increasingly, the Old Media appears to be engaged in satire and here is another story that could serve as an example of it. ABC News has published a purportedly serious story claiming that global warming “helps” the Taliban and al Qaeda in Afghanistan and terrorists all over the world. For ABC, writer Bill Blakemore makes […]

 

Maine, Tennessee, Massachusetts Universal Healthcare Plans a Bust

Both President Obama and the Democratic Congress have ignored the mess that three states have made of their economy and tax burden by attempting to create a public option and/or universal healthcare. Tennessee has its TennCare program, Maine has tried a “public option” program, and Massachusetts has its RomenyCare system that promises healthcare for all. […]

 

Another of Obama’s Radical Appointees

The Old Media wholly ignored the story, but one of the extremists that Barack Obama appointed as a so-called czar in his government had to step down when the full extent of his un-American radicalism was exposed on the Internet. Obama’s “green czar,” Van Jones, resigned when it was revealed how anti-American his rhetoric was […]

 

NBCs Brian Williams Calls Internet ‘Comic Element of Our Society’

Apparently Brian Williams does not hold the Internet in very high esteem. One easily understands this from his comments about the political Internet on the morning of October 9 when Williams took a swipe at the blogoshpere, pundits and the “opinion-based economy” — whatever the later is. In a follow-up segment after NBC aired President […]

 

Smosska’s ACORN Smoke Screen

-By Warner Todd Huston This is an update on a story about a company in South Carolina named Smosska that I covered back in July. At this point, it seems beyond question that Smosska is a sham organization that was set up by ACORN in order to hide “community activism” behind a false front in […]

 

8 Dem Senators Push Reid for Transparency on Health Bill

As reported earlier, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has been fighting against efforts to institute transparency in the healthcare debate by posting SB3200, the House healthcare bill, online for at least 72 hours before the bill comes to the floor. Similarly, efforts to bring transparency to the Senate’s Baucus bill are also in the […]

 

How ACORN Hides Behind Fake Names

Many states have ways to look up the businesses, organizations and people with whom the state does business. Illinois has such a service on the Secretary of State’s website. In Illinois there is a way to search the folks the state does business with on a page titled Corporate/LLC Search / Certificate of Good Standing. […]

 

Obama’s Muslim Advisor Says Sharia Law ‘Misunderstood’

It has been used to excuse the chopping off of hands and feet, it has been used as an excuse to stone women that have been victims of rape, and it has been used as an excuse to jail women merely for wearing a pair of pants, driving a car, or smoking a cigarette, but […]

 

Obama’s Stimulus for Unions

Stimulating the economy isn’t nearly as important to President Obama as putting federal dollars into the pockets of his union cronies. Because of Obama’s PLA Executive Order, thousands of jobs are going to unions in states that have few union members. The Washington Times, for instance, reports that Obama has grandiosely given a $35 million […]

 

Associated Press and Misleading Rhetoric on Afghanistan

The Associated Press employed some interesting rhetoric in its recent wire story on Obama’s coming decisions on the war in Afghanistan. It is rhetoric that might mislead a casual reader as to how many casualties the U.S. has incurred in Afghanistan and just when they’ve occurred as well as both Obama’s and the Bush administration’s […]

 

Pelosi Thwarting Transparency Measures, Won’t Allow Public to See Healthcare Bill

On September 25, we reported on the Walden Discharge Petition that Representative Joe Wilson informed us about in a conference telephone call.

The Obama Justice Department’s Secret Blogging Team… Is it Illegal?

Obama’s Attorney General, Eric Holder, has apparently hired a cadre of left-wing, Democrat campaign bloggers to troll through the Internet looking for news stories and blog posts that denigrate the Obama agenda. After such websites are found it is the job of these secret lefty bloggers to leave comments that come to the support of […]

 

CA Elections: Whitman’s Spotty Voting Record: Not Exactly as it Seemed?

Much has been made about Meg Whitman’s spotty voting record by many, including me. When the Sacramento Bee’s Andrew McIntosh first reported that records for Whitman’s voter registration going back a decade or so were nearly non-existent it seemed that the anti-Whitman camp(s) out there had quite an issue to hang their hats upon. It […]

 

And Now Senator Schumer is Lying about Job Loss

You know, our job loses are bad enough without President Obama and now Senator Chuck Schumer lying about it all and making it sound even worse than it is. But this particular lie is a very particular lie, one that is aimed to make the presidency of George W. Bush the bad guy. Job loses […]

 

The Dangerous Left-Wing Hatemongering from Media Matters

Eric Boehlert of Media Matters is the worst kind of American. In fact, it’s hard to count him as an American at all except by accident of birth. It is plain that this Boehlert fellow is against many aspects of the American tradition chief of which is freedom of political speech. Well, perhaps, he’s not […]

 

Meg Whitman: A Big Lib Supporter?

-By Warner Todd Huston Meg Whitman has had some bad days lately. After recently proclaiming herself a “darned good” conservative Republican, Senator Barbara Boxer’s staff revealed that Whitman was a Boxer supporter in 2003. Dangerously for Whitman, Senator Boxer is one of the most liberal members of the Senate. According to Boxer aide Rose Kapolczynski, […]

 

Travesty: Most Illinois County GOP Organizations Have no Web Presence

Imagine that. In this day and age most of the GOP Party organizations in the great state of Illinois do NOT have a web page. Illinois has 102 counties, but only 23 of them have a usable, working webpage. In this Internet age, the very first place everyone runs to in order to find out […]

 

Why do Obamas Have to Lie?

Barack “Hessayin” Obama lied repeatedly throughout the campaign and has not stopped as president. And now, even Michelle “Never Been Proud of My Country” Obama is joining him at the liar’s rostrum. Our favorite watchdog Michelle Malkin caught this little lie in The First Lady’s Olympics pleading. Some of my best memories are sitting on […]

 

The Prattler in Chief, Barack ‘Hessayin’ Obama

Remember back in school when the class braggart began to talk of his conquests in the bedroom and how everyone laughed at his nonsense? Or you have that one that fellow at work that has always done everything and been everywhere and is prepared to tell you about it at the drop of a hat? […]

 

Dems False Talking Point of 80% Agreement

Obama has repeatedly been heard to say that Congress agrees on “about 80% of what needs to be done” on healthcare. And many Democratic congressmen have been echoing this since Obama’s Sept. speech. The meme has been used to present their case as if Obamacare is somehow mostly acceptable by all concerned. Even some Republican […]

 

Nanny State Update: New York District Bans Kids From Riding Bikes to School

America’s kids are too fat. Right? Don’t we hear that all the time? Isn’t it a steady mantra from the left that America is suffering from an “epidemic” of obesity? So, shouldn’t we want to encourage kids to get outdoors? Wouldn’t it be a good thing if kids rode a bicycle to school? Not to […]

 

Obama’s Internet Supporters Are All Pot Heads and Poker Addicts

You know, we all love the Internet. Heck, I make a good portion of my living on Al Gore’s most famous invention so it gets a big thumbs up from me, for sure. But we have to admit that there are an awful lot of goofballs on these Internet tubes. In some ways, the whole […]

 

A Democratic Philosophy Against Transparency

We can look at four of the amendments offered as additions to the healthcare bill that Democrats defeated and what we see gives us a glimpse into the Democratic Party’s true soul. And it is a dark look, indeed. At least it’s dark if you are one of those lowly citizens that thinks government transparency […]

 

Lefty Outrage at ‘Conservative’ Article Misses Key Fact, Writer Isn’t Conservative

The left is in an uproar today. They got their panties in a bunch over a piece that ran on the conservative newsblog NewsMax.com where it was suggested that Obama’s irresponsible actions as president could result in a military coup that would “restore” the Constitution. Not completely without reason, many lefty blogs have lost their […]
