The Left Turning Western Civilization into Alice’s Wonderland

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn’t be. And what it wouldn’t be, it would. You see”– Alice of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland Clearly the left are Aliceites. They are […]

 

Stupak Amendment Exposes Obamacare’s Dirty Little Secret: Eugenics

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Originally posted at RedState The other day, when Bart Stupak revealed that he was told “If you pass the Stupak Amendment, more children will be born and therefore it will cost us millions more”, I mentioned that it was no real surprise. Abortion is an agenda to the Left, it’s not about life or some […]

 

Barry Claims His Plan Would Bring Down Premiums By 3,000%

Posted on by William Teach

No, that is not a typo in the headline. I seriously doubt that The Smartest Man In The World Ever!!!!!! meant to say 3,000. I Blame Bush. Or Secretary Teleprompter. Just image had Bush made this claim, even by accident Now, so let me talk about the third thing, which is my proposal would bring […]

 

Felons in the White House?

Posted on by Dave Blount

Redemption is possible for anyone — even the odious Benedict Arlen Specter, who makes this constructive remark about the simmering White House job-bribing scandal most of the press has been studiously ignoring: There’s a crime called misprision of a felony. Misprision of a felony is when you don’t report a crime. So you’re getting into […]

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Matt Lewis gets the exclusive story. Setting: Townhall, Somewhereville, America. Mood: Stacked crowd…except for this lady. Here’s what happened: Martin said she opposes Obama’s health care plan for philosophical, not parochial reasons, and after his speech, she caught the president’s attention. “I didn’t clap and I didn’t smile, and I just sort of held firm […]

 

Obama Orders Army NOT To Fly U.S. Flag in Haiti

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It’s bad enough that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is giving short shrift to American manufacturers and our economy by ordering extravagant new crystal stemware from Sweden to make the crystal cabinets in America’s embassies sparkle impressively, but now we learn that Barack Obama has told the U.S. relief forces in Haiti not to fly […]

 

Paul Ryan: ‘We are not governing here today, we are greasing the skids’

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

So said Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) during today’s Budget Committee farce wherein the “shell” bill was passed. It now heads over to be marked up and can include whatever they want, including public option, and can be loaded with earmarks to secure wavering or undecided votes. Like I said last night, everything is now on […]

 

AP Conflates Fake ‘Catholic’ Group With Catholic Church

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Here is one of the sneaky tricks that the Old Media plays in order to support a cause. In this case it’s the Associated Press coming to the aid of Obamacare with “news” that a “Catholic” hospital group is coming out in support of Obamacare. Of course, the AP does not inform the reader that […]

Does The ‘Shell’ Health Care Bill Have Any Teeth? Dead Sister’s or Otherwise?

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

?(Originally posted at RedState) The short answer is: Do not trust. And verify. Upon the release of the ’shell’ 2,300 page reconciliation health care bill, which includes a public option, immediately some started issuing calls to calm down, that it’s a shell bill that will allegedly be stripped by the Rules Committee. Allegedly is the […]

 

Democrats And Health Care Bill: Bait & Switch & Switch & Then, Probably, Switch Again

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Public option: In School loans: In And yet, it’s called a “shell” bill that will be stripped. Philip Klein explains it all. Here’s a bit: Shortly before midnight on Sunday, Democrats released a 2,309 page health care bill that will start the process of reconciliation — but don’t let that fool you, it’s not the […]

 

3rd Annual AFP Defending the Amer. Dream Summit, Wisconsin — Final Report

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Well, I am back home from attending the AFP Defending the American Dream Summit. The speakers were inspiring and the panel on which I sat during one of the break out sessions was really fun. A word about what this whole thing was is apropos here. It was attended by some 4,000 folks, all regular […]

 

Leftist The Nation magazine: When In Doubt, Blame Bush. Again

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

It seems that math, cooking and basic home economics aren’t the only things with which Katrina Vanden Heuvel has trouble. I wrote about her inability to function at those household basics yesterday, here. Well, it appears that the reality-challenged Vanden Heuvel, Editor of The Nation magazine, also isn’t a very good, you know, Editor. .. […]

 

Senator Scott Brown Delivers Devastating GOP Weekly Address

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Senator Scott Brown Delivers Devastating GOP Weekly Address Associated Press Then ‘Blames’ Senator Brown for Failure to Pass Health Care Bill Last month, I defended Scott Brown on his vote for cloture on the ridiculous jobs bill.

Help Obama Escape Gitmo And Bush’s Eeeeeevil Plans!

Posted on by William Teach

One of my favorite on-line distractions is playing “room escape” games (best starting site is Escape Games 24). Imagine my surprise when I ran across this typical piece of leftists wackadoodle insanity Just move on, lefties, just move on. I understand Prozac helps many of you adjust to rational, adult society, and reduces the amount […]

 

3rd Annual AFP Defending the Amer. Dream Summit, Wisconsin — Opening Festivities

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I am here in Beautiful Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin for the AFP Defending the American Dream Summit… or I assume it’ll be beautiful once the drab days of Winter are over, anyway. I haven’t been to the Dells since about 1973, so things have changed a tad since I was last here. Tonight, after registration closed […]

 

Coffee Party Astroturf

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

What is it that the left and the Old Media said about the Tea Party movement? Didn’t they say it was not really filled with regular folks and didn’t they say it was not really a grass roots level effort because some nefarious “top-down” Republican groups were secretly behind the whole thing? That’s what Paul […]

 

Do Democrats Understand How An Economy Works?

Posted on by William Teach

I was hoping to go with a bit of lighter fare, a funny story about a guy bringing a barstool to a gunfight (guess who wins), alas, two other stories caught my eye, and highlight how clueless and inept Democrats are regarding jobs and the economy. Let’s start with The Cluelessness Of Obama President Obama […]

 

Obama’s Indonesia Trip Timing Questioned

Posted on by William Teach

At first blush, I looked at the headline of this story (Timing of Obama Indonesia Trip Questioned) and thought “come on, give me a break. Presidents go on international trips. Lighten up.” Then I read the substance, and, while I do not really question the timing (seriously, does it matter if Obama is here or […]

 

Obamaganda: Another School Sings Praises to Dear Leader

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It’s a veritable cornucopia of Obamagandistic musical agitprop. You’ll recall the militaristic, fascist-styled Obama youth corps from 2008 where a line of inner city youth stamped out their obeisance militia-like to The One like good little automatons? Perhaps the slickly produced exploitation of sweet faced children from Hollywood that same year will ring a bell? […]

 

Massive Rally Against ObamaCare in St. Louis

Posted on by Dave Blount

Indicating how little Americans appreciate Obama’s ham-fisted attempt to take over the healthcare industry, a Kill the Bill rally in St. Louis yesterday, expected to draw 600 protesters due to the heavy interest, instead drew well over 2,000. Via Gateway Pundit: Democrats scuttled for cover and watched from the safety of their crevices. Instapundit reports: […]

 

Next Victim of Obamunism: Recreational Fishing

Posted on by Dave Blount

After the nightmare progressives call Hope & Change is finally over, it may take years to sort out all the liberties we’ve lost. Some of the most outrageous encroachments are hardly even reported, having been drowned out by the thunderous artillery aimed at our healthcare system. For example: The Obama administration will accept no more […]

 

Nancy Pelosi’s ‘Tell’

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Nancy Pelosi proves that it is possible to give “tells”, even if your face can’t move and you are an accomplished liar. First, the “she made an utter fool of herself” part, because any chance to point and snicker at Pelosi is A-Okay with me. While giving a speech to the National Association of Counties, […]

 

Dear America, Admit That You’re Stupid! Love, Nancy

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The founding fathers debated bills for weeks. They then wrote them, referred them to committee’s of style and prose, brought them back to the floor, debated them again, wrote newspaper articles about them, went home to their districts to discuss them, and finally passed them — or not — after much deliberation. Today’s Speaker of […]

 

Europeans Ready to Stick a Fork in Obama

Posted on by Dave Blount

Hopey Change didn’t have much of a shelf life. In Europe, they’re already writing the Moonbat Messiah’s political epitaph: The descent of Barack Obama’s regime, characterised now by factionalism in the Democratic Party and talk of his being set to emulate Jimmy Carter as a one-term president, has been swift and precipitate. It was just […]

 

Majority Think Obama And Dems Harming America’s World Standing

Posted on by William Teach

How can this be? What with all the bowing Obama’s engaged in and talking with enemy regimes and giving the Queen of England a cool iPod with his own photos and vids, how can this happen? Heck, Barry was given a Nobel Peace Prize! A majority of Americans say the United States is less respected […]

 

Government Health Care Is Not About Health Care; It’s About Government

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

“Government Health Care is not about health care; It’s about Government.” So reads the last line of Mark Steyn’s latest brilliant article, which I strongly suggest that everyone read. He’s right, of course, but I’d go even a step further. It’s not just about government, it’s about a mindset and a freedom-squashed way of life. […]

 

Remember When Obama Was Going To Heal The Rifts With The World? Yeah, About That

Posted on by William Teach

Remember this quote as delivered to Obama from TOTUS? The Bush administration has done so much damage to American foreign relations that the president take a more active role in diplomacy than might have been true 20 or 30 years ago. If we think that meeting with the president is a privilege that has to […]

 

Obama Use Weekly Radio Address To Push Economic And Jobs Recovery

Posted on by William Teach

Just kidding. He yammered on about health care yet again President Obama pressed Congress on Saturday to “finish its work” on health care, dismissing criticism from Republicans as he sought to build a case that the legislation would be friendly to families and small businesses. As the administration works to win over skeptical Democrats in […]
