Nancy Pelosi’s Fortune Explodes

Posted on June 16, 2011 by Dave Blount

One of the perks of power is that it can help you grow your fortune.

Illinois Congressmen Help Tip in Big Labor Amendment

Posted on June 15, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

On Monday I alerted you all to a jobs-killing, union-favoring amendment being considered in the House of Representatives in Washington, one that needed to be defeated. Unfortunately, the amendment was successful and now, in this dour economy, unions will be able to make matters worse just when we need a shot in the arm. (See

Obama Puts Unions Ahead of a Healthy Economy, Free Trade

Posted on June 15, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

President Obama claims that he wants to “create jobs,” and is happily touting several policies that he claims will create jobs in this jobless, non-recovery. Unfortunately, all his polices really do is shore up the high cost unions that kill job growth. As GOP Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConell says, Obama has “relentlessly pursued an […]

Cal. Union Launches Effort to Recruit Republican Candidates

Posted on June 14, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

This is a novel approach. The Service Employees International Union (SEIU), one of the largest government employee unions in the nation, has decided that they’ve had enough of all those darn Republicans that are… well… acting like Republicans. So, the union has lighted on a new way to be rid of all those darn Republican-like […]

Weiner Still Has Friends Among Liberals

Posted on June 13, 2011 by Dave Blount

It may be hypocritical for Democrats to tolerate the presence of Anthony Weiner following Nancy Pelosi’s high-toned rhetoric about “draining the swamp,” but it’s more hypocritical still for them to condemn him. Weiner behaved disgustingly, betrayed his wife’s trust, irresponsibly compromised his position of power in a way that opened him up to blackmail, and […]

Soros Funded MoveOn.Org Lies About Hacking Fox News Ticker

Posted on June 13, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

What’s the best way to counter what you think are the lies coming from your opponents? Is it to make up lies of your own? Apparently MoveOn.org thinks so. On June 9, MoveOn admitted using lies, subterfuge and fraud to “counter” what they maintain is the wrong-headed thinking of Fox News. I guess to a […]

Unionists Next Target for Destruction: Apple, Inc.

Posted on June 13, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

A four-year Apple store employee in San Francisco wants to unionize the low wage workers that help customers in Apple Stores across America.

More Arts Funding Boondoggles in Age of Obama Economic Meltdown

Posted on June 12, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

Yes, it’s time for another tale of millions of your tax dollars wasted by the NEA on “art” in America. Supporters of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) like to puff themselves up as saviors of high “art” in lowbrow America. They love to imagine that without their advocacy for spending millions of our […]

Posted on June 10, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

Half of America’s energy comes from coal-fired power plants but Obama’s new EPA rules would about destroy the coal industry driving our energy costs through the roof.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz Literally Says the Opposite of What She Means

Posted on June 9, 2011 by Dave Blount

Don’t you hate it when people use the word “literally” to mean literally the opposite of literally? One of the worst offenders against the English language in this regard is the Chairmoonbat of the DNC, Debbie Wasserman Schultz. CNS News extracts a few examples from her hyperbolic ravings: Wasserman Schultz … recently backed off her […]

Healthcare: Let The States Decide

Posted on June 9, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

The debate about healthcare coming from the Democrats is steeped in purposeful misdirection on one hand and a complete lack of any real knowledge about what Obamacare will even do on the other. It is also a major overreach on a federalism level which is why it is hard to understand why more people aren’t […]

More Dept. Of Education Stormtroopers: They Are Armed With Shotguns! (Seriously!)

Posted on June 9, 2011June 9, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

As William was saying below, there really is more to this story.

Hollywood ‘Comedian’ Calls for Assassination of Sarah Palin

Posted on June 8, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

Jeff Poor at the Daily Caller has a disturbing story this week. It’s all about a so-called Hollywood comedian telling a talk show audience that he would assassinate Sarah Palin were she to become President of the United States. He wasn’t being “funny” either, was he? After all, those Hollywierders that blamed the right for […]

Obviously, Twitter Shares Part Of The Blame For Weiner Being Pond Scum

Posted on June 8, 2011 by William Teach

ABC News doesn’t come out specifically and say that Twitter shares the burden for Rep Anthony Weiner (D-NY) sexting issue, but they sure imply the hell out of it! Congressman Weiner: Did Twitter Make Sexting Too Easy? In the end, of course, New York Congressman Anthony Weiner said he did it to himself. He was […]

New York Times Columnist Kristof’s Foolishness

Posted on June 7, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

The New York Times’ Nicholas Kristof is a simpleton. There is really no other way to say it, no gentler phrasing possible, to explain how childish and uncluttered his tiny little mind really is. The latest example of his utter inability to think clearly can be seen in Kristof’s screed against Americans that love America. […]

Booster Uses Rape Case to Sell Unions

Posted on June 7, 2011 by Warner Todd Huston

This one sure is disgusting. Remember that the chief of the International Monetary Fund, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, was arrested for sexually assaulting a maid in New York?

Pelosi Calls For Ethics Investigation Of Weiner….Wait, What?

Posted on June 6, 2011June 6, 2011 by William Teach

New ‘Reality’ TV Show To Focus On Race for 2012 Election

Posted on June 6, 2011December 30, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

An interesting ad has recently appeared at the New York Craig’s List website which shows exactly how the left will be framing the upcoming 2012 presidential election. The ad asks for a family that represents “racial minorities” to be pitted against a family of “white conservatives.” It’s pretty clear they intend to make this whole […]
