Obama Now Trying to Intimidate Consultants and PR Firms of Businesses

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

True to form, even as he says he wants to cut regulations, Obama’s regulatory army is marching hard against business and this week the president’s Labor Dept. has unleashed yet another salvo in order to hurt the business sector. Before I start this explanation of yet another Obama powergrab through his powers to regulate, may […]

 

Great New Ap That Will be Destroyed By Government

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

There is a new smart phone ap out there that is a pretty good idea. It’s called “CLOO’.” Unfortunately, no matter how good it is there is an absolute certainty that the government — whether local, state, or federal, or even all of them — will destroy this great idea with regulatory red tape. The […]

 

New Worry: RFID Tracking Chips in Firearms?

Union Members Take Hostages, Destroy Property: But Remember, Tea Party is ‘Dangerous’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

After months of accusations that it is the Tea Party movement that is somehow “dangerous” to America, much of such rhetoric coming from union members and their supporters, we get union members of the Longshoremen storming the Port of Longview, Washington taking hostages, destroying property, and generally acting like lawless thugs. Imagine what the news […]

 

AFL-CIO Prez: Hey, Remember 9/11? Was a Great Union Moment, Right?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In one of the most disgusting examples of the self-absorption of the union mind set, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka decided that his 9/11 memorial would not be much about 9/11, but would instead be just another excuse to say how great unions are and how evil conservatives are. This isn’t just gauche, but insulting, infuriating, […]

 

Video: Obama Calls Lincoln ‘Founder of Republican Party’?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

During his faux “jobs” speech on Sept 8, President Obama went off script for a brief sojourn into history to reveal to one and all that he hasn’t a clue about the subject. I say off script because these words are not in the prepared text… Sorry, big guy, but Abe Lincoln was not the […]

 

Irrelevant Jobs Speech: The Presidential Speech No One Attended

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

President Obama gave his much delayed “jobs” speech on Thursday, one he’s been promising since 2008. Unfortunately for this president, few people much cared. In fact, the most damning indictment about how irrelevant this speech and this president is was seen during the speech in the House gallery, a space that was, unlike any other […]

 

Actress Mila Kunis: Middle America Stupid for Not Loving Obama

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It is always amusing to hear actors and actresses venture into the unfamiliar territory of politics when interviewers are cruel enough to broach such issues. Sadly, actress Mila Kunis is no exception to that Hollyweird tendency toward guffaw inducing political bloviating. Naturally and in keeping with most of the rest of the industry, in a […]

 

Lefty Protesters: Here’s a Poll to Help Us Find Out What We are REALLY Mad About

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I had to laugh when I found out about the left’s newest protest du jour. They are hopin’ mad, don’t cha know? So mad that they are busy organizing marches, protests, civil disobedience, and all sorts of activities to protest it all. But amusingly they aren’t even sure what it is they are mad about. […]

 

Live Tweeting Obama’s Jobs Speech: More Big Government Boondoggles

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

As I often do, I live Tweeted Obama’s address to the joint session of congress, but for sure this speech was little else but yet another plea from Obama for giant piles of government money to be thrown around in a bacchanalia of Keynesian spending. He may not have used the newly verboten word “stimulus,” […]

 

USA Today Hit Piece on Christian Defense Attorney, Jay Sekulow

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

USA Today published a story recently by Bob Smietana of the Nashville newspaper The Tennessean attacking the integrity and work of well-known Christian First Amendment defense attorney Jay Sekulow that is shocking for what is left out. Sekulow is the head man of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), a Washington D.C.-based organization […]

 

Obama Hypocrisy: From ‘Talking to Each Other in a Way That Heals,’ to Dismissing ‘Kabuki Theater’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Barack Obama is nothing less than a hypocrite on his admonitions over public discourse and the latest example of this truth lies in his refusal to condemn the violence-tinged language of Teamsters president Jimmy Hoffa not to mention his similar silence on the obscene rhetoric of many of the leading members of the Congressional Black […]

 

AP Editorializing in the ‘News’ Again

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In a recent article on the dissatisfaction of Big Labor once again we see making its way into what is otherwise supposed to be a normal, everyday “news” story, the Associated Press indulging its penchant for using biased labels and left-wing “definitions” in order to push a left-wing agenda on its readers. Even while presenting […]

 

You know It’s Bad When Even Leftist British Comedian Says England ‘No Longer English’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Wow. You know it’s gotten bad in the U.K. when a left-wing actor and British icon is now saying that his country has lost its essential Englishness. It looks like Monty Python alum John Cleese has “funny walked” his way into a bit of a controversy over his remarks, and this time from the left […]

 

Colorado School Places Saudi Arabian Flag Above U.S. Flag

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

An elementary school in Fort Collins, Colorado came under fire last week for having placed in the school a smaller sized Saudi Arabian flag in a higher, more prominent position that the flag of the United States. Many locals called this a disrespectful display and even wondered if it was part of some effort at […]

 

Rockford Tea Party Calls for Resignation of Teamsters President

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

After Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa incited violence against Republicans as he introduced President Obama at Monday’s rally in Detroit, at least one organization called for Hoffa to resign over his intemperate and violent rhetoric. The Rockford Tea Party of northern Illinois made the call for Hoffa to resign. Here is what Hoffa’s ignorant rhetoric sounded: […]

Dear American, You Owe the U.S. Gov’t $31,871

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Thanks to the profligate spending in Washington D.C., each American citizen’s share of the debt is now up to $31, 871, as you can see by the chart below… But that is nothing compared to where it will be in just a few short years. As the chart shows if things continue the way they […]

 

Newt Gingrich’s Illinois Fundraiser

Proof: Obama WAS Trying to Use Joint Speech One-Upmanship As Political Ploy

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The American left and its handmaidens in the Old Media spent 24 hours desperately trying to spin Obama’s attempt to schedule a joint session of Congress on the same day as the GOP debate as an example of how the GOP is refusing to work with him. These leftists categorically deny that Obama was simply […]

 

Rep. Peter Roskam Starts Ball Rolling On Regulation Scale Back

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I spent most of the day on Aug 30 sort of embeded with Congressman Peter Roskam, Republican of the Illinois 6th District and Chief Deputy Whip in Washington, as he toured his district talking to local businesses. The whirlwind tour of businesses in Roskam’s district — topped with a presser in downtown Chicago — was […]

 

Infant Tyro: Obama’s One-Upmanship of GOP Debates Clearly a Power Play

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

-By Warner Todd Huston President Obama wants to give us his jobs plan. Yeah, three years after he got elected saying he was all about jobs. It isn’t the speech that is important, here, though — he won’t say anything new or important in it. It is the fact that he’s trying to bury the […]

Warren Buffet Tax Shirker and Hypocrite

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Why is it that every time we meet yet another socialist-loving, left-winger he ends up being an utter hypocrite? This time it’s tax-whiner — and now known tax shirker — Warren Buffet, the investment giant that has been telling anyone that will listen that “the rich” don’t pay enough in taxes. Well, apparently, he’s right, […]

 

Children Better Behaved Than Union Thugs in Wisconsin

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The MacIver Institute of Wisconsin has been doing stellar work on the situation between the unions and the rest of Wisconsin since Governor Scott Walker first entered the Governor’s mansion.

You Need ID in D.C. to Get Sandbags for Irene, But No ID to Vote?
