John Edwards Likes ‘Two Americas’ Only So He Can See Himself Twice

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Like almost everything conservatives warned about Obama eventually bearing true, we were also right about John Edwards and: his propensity towards narcissism. Our only fault was that maybe we didn’t realize it was pathological and sociopathic in nature. The new book “Game Change” exposes the truth about John Edwards and his wife, Elizabeth. : “Game Change” is […]

 

Looking For Trumbo: California’s Basket-Case Economy

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

George Will crafts quite a descriptive metaphor for California’s failing economy, comparing it to the titular ultimate basket-case soldier in Dalton Trumbo’s infamous 1939 anti-war novel “Johnny Got His Gun.” As Trumbo writes, if Johnny got his gun, then most certainly, “Berkeley Got Its Liberalism.”

 

The Sensitive, Nuanced Verbal Stylings of Senator Harry Reid

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

The top Democrat in the U.S. Senate apologized on Saturday for comments he made about Barack Obama’s race during the 2008 presidential bid.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described then-Sen. Barack Obama as “light skinned” and “with no Negro dialect.” Obama is the nation’s first African-American president.

 

Another Obama Paid Shill: Jonathan Gruber, The Cadillac Tax & His “Sole Source” Contract With HHS

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

See that guy on the left? Yeah, he’s the Obama Shill you’ve never heard of until just now. But he’s the one writing Op-Eds in the Washington Post like he’s independent. But no. He’s being paid by President Barack Obama. More corruption from the new administration of transparency and Savior-like perfection. Jonathan Gruber writes an […]

 

Liberal Court Uses “Racism” Ploy to Grant Vote to Felons

Posted on by Dave Blount

Liberalism is the ideology of the criminal. While others create, liberals use force to expropriate. For moral cover, they cloak themselves in altruism (which in itself can be a moral illness, as Ayn Rand made a career of explaining). But there is absolutely zero moral difference between breaking into someone’s house and stealing money to […]

 

Condi Rice Positions Herself to Cash In on Cap & Trade

Posted on by Dave Blount

It’s almost impossible to overstate the economic devastation that would be wrought by Tax & Charade, should it follow healthcare nationalization through the Senate for Comrade Obama’s eager signature. Not only would it represent by far the largest tax hike in history — at a time the economy couldn’t possibly withstand it — but it […]

 

Once Again Unions Find a Pliant Judge to do Their Bidding

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In another example of why unions are antithetical to good government, a pliant, left-wing judge in California has ruled that the Schwarzenegger Administration cannot furlough state workers that belong to three powerful public employees unions. Governor Schwarzenegger has been battling to cut his over spent state budget for several years now and one of the […]

 

DeMint Decries Union Obstruction in TSA

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Democrats are trying to paint the GOP as “obstructionists” for blocking the appointment of Obama’s choice of Erroll Southers to head up the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). Democrats are claiming that by blocking the closure of debate on Southers the GOP is trying to obstruct “tighter security at airports.” But there is an ulterior […]

 

Tea Parties: The Biggest Mistake We’ll Make in 2010

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It’s the end of 2009, the “aughts” are over, and we are about to embark on a new year — and what else are they but the “aughts”? Well, besides mostly a horrible and thankfully passed decade. In any case, we are at the end of the year and that means two things: lists about […]

Percy Sutton, long-time Borough President of Manhattan passed away this week at 89. Sutton is famous for being Malcolm X’s lawyer and a powerful New York politician but he was also a member of the famed Tuskegee Airmen, a radio pioneer, and a civil rights activist. There is one more little thing that Sutton is […]

 

Old Media Whines That Palin is Mean to Them

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Get the pity party violin music warmed up because Ezra Klein and Dave Weigel are whining that Sarah Palin has forced them, the press, into a “submissive role” because she is so mean to them. Klein favorably cites the analysis of Weigel who whined that the “Palin problem” has “put the press in a submissive […]

 

Chgo. Mayor Daley’s Bro Pleads for Dems to Return to Center

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Chicago Mayor Richard Daley’s brother, William, is warning the Democratic Party that it is going too far left and will end up “in the wilderness” in 2010. William Daley has been a longtime political operative that has been connected with the Clintons for many years but that doesn’t make him an extremist lefty, apparently… at […]

 

Healthcare Monstrosity Will Mean More Money for ACORN

Posted on by Dave Blount

It will be years before we know just how much of a crime Democrats are inflicting on this country with the Obama/Reid/Pelousy healthcare power grab. But a few details have already come to light. For example, the election-stealing, child prostitution-enabling criminal enterprise where Comrade Obama cut his teeth will be soaking up still more of […]

 

The Fire ‘Em All Approach to Voting is Just Silly

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Many good, honest conservatives want to fire all of Congress. One of the latest efforts is a website called goooh.com (as in GetOutOfOurHouse.com). Believe me, I understand the feeling. Congress has miserably failed to satisfy the voters. They’ve been arrogant, they’ve spent more time accumulating personal wealth than legislating, they’ve casually ignored the entirety of […]

 

Deep In Health Bill, Very Specific Bribes

Posted on by William Teach

Y’all remember William “Cold Cash” Jefferson? Do you remember what happened? A private individual promised to give him $400K if Jefferson would help a high tech company called iGate by persuading the Army to test iGate’s products, as well as attempt to influence officials in 3 countries. He was caught on tape taking $100K. Obviously, […]

 

Cokie Roberts Proves She is a Liar

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I am finding it increasingly impossible to discuss current politics without pointing out that Democrats and liberals are simply a pack of liars and “journalist” Cokie Roberts fits quite neatly into this category for what she said about the healthcare debate on ABC’s This Week Sunday morning talk show. As Brent Baker of Newsbusters reported […]

 

One Again Teachers Union Shows Kids Don’t Matter

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

-By Warner Todd Huston A recalcitrant teachers union in Florida once again shows that reform for the sake of the kids doesn’t interest it. A federal program called Race to the Top bestows federal money on any district that institutes merit pay and reforms its schools. Guess who hates the idea. Yep, you guessed it: […]

 

Govt Healthcare Will Give us ALL Pay Cuts

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Big Labor has, for the most part, fallen all over itself to help its patron President get his Obamacare policies passed in Congress spending millions to do so. If Obamacare should pass many millions will lose their healthcare and will be forced into government healthcare. According to the CBO at least 10 million will lose […]

 

Obama DOJ Tells Lawyers In New Black Panther Case To Not Cooperate

Posted on by William Teach

Hmmmm, just imagine George Bush was still president. How would this kind of news be received? Would it be splashed all over the leading U.S. papers, rather than pretty much in a sole outlet, the Washington Times? In fact, it seems that the Washington Times is the only one that is even following the story, […]

 

Cops Insist on Getting Paid for Dressing Themselves

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Here is another reason why unions need to be destroyed… Do you think your boss should pay you for getting dressed in the morning or for taking off your day’s clothes to climb into your snuggly Pjs each night? No reasonable, sane person would. But unions are neither reasonable, sane, nor apparently interested in what’s […]

 

A Message to Senators Landrieu and Reid form the Louisiana Tea Partiers

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This past Saturday, hundreds of people gathered in the pouring rain in New Orleans, Louisiana, to tell Senator Harry Reid (D, Nev.) and Senator Mary Landrieu (D, Loius.). As you may know, Senator Reid was supposed to attend a fundraiser in New Orleans, but canceled his plans to attend when he started taking heat for […]

 

Obama Says He Gives ‘Better Gifts’? Don’t Ask the Brits About That One

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

On yet another appearance on the Oprah Winfrey show, President Barack Obama broke his own arm patting himself on the back telling the talk show maven that he gives better gifts than he gets. As Chicago’s Lynn Sweet reports, “When it comes to gifts, President Obama says he gives ‘nicer stuff that I get,’ an […]

 

Science, Smoking, Healthcare, All Prove Gov’t Can’t be Trusted

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Just sit back and let big daddy government show you the way. The Democrat Party is assuring us that they know better because they have science, educated people, doctors, all that “expertise” in their control and further more they “care” about us all and they want us to know that they’d never do anything to […]

 

Liberal Website Wants ‘Teabaggers’ to ‘Die’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The profane, but popular lefty site named “Wonkette” decided that it wants conservatives to die. Either that or it wants homosexuals that indulge a certain sexual practice to die, it’s a bit hard to tell. In a post outrageously headlined “Teabaggers To Feign Death In Senate Offices, Because Of Whatever,” the Wonkette crew snarks that […]

 

Public Funding for ACORN Will Continue

Posted on by Dave Blount

House Minority Leader John Boehner has a very small surprise for us: despite lopsided votes in favor of cutting off public funding to Comrade Obama’s outrageously corrupt enablers at ACORN in the aftermath of the O’Keefe/Giles videos, the Big Government fire hose will continue to blast a torrent of our money at these vermin. On […]

 

ClimateGate and the UN: New Red Scare over Green Lies

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Believe it or not, the UN just whined that climategate is the Russian’s fault. It appears that the United Nation’s position is that the obvious cover-up of the false doctrine that is global warming perpetrated by global warming “scientists” is not the fault of the lying scientists, but that of the assumed “paid” Russian hacker […]

 

Gay Santa

Posted on by Dave Blount

Is nothing sacred to the militant moonbats bent on corrupting every aspect of our society? The answer: that’s right, nothing. So who knew? Santa Claus is a ho-ho homosexual. When the story goes public, it rocks the world. Well, at least in writer-performer Jeffrey Solomon’s “Santa Claus Is Coming Out,” his newest one-man show exploring […]

 

Safe Schools Pervert Still on the Job for Obama

Posted on by Dave Blount

Shockingly, Obama’s “Safe School Czar” — the militant pervert Kevin Jennings — is still on the job, thanks to the liberal establishment media studiously ignoring revelations into the depravity he has used his opulently remunerative position at the head of GLSEN to inflict on children. Safe Schools Czar Kevin Jennings was the founder, and for […]
