Obama’s Hometown, Vastly Democratic Chicago, Denies Permit To Mosque

Posted on by William Teach

I guess this makes all the Democrats in Chicago (Cook County voted 76% for Obama) raaaaacists, bigots, and Islamophobes. Or, maybe they are just plain “un-American”, as NYC Mayor Bloomberg says. And, by extension, that makes Obama a racist, bigot, Islamophobe, and un-American, simply because he is associated with Chicago. Anyhow: Permit Denied For Mosque […]

Obama Scrubs White House Website of Climate Change Promises, Media Mum

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Despite that President Obama made Cap and Trade and other green policy plans a focal point of his early days in office — not to mention his campaign for president — the White House has quietly scrubbed from its official website many of Obama’s promises and green initiatives.

Religious Freedom, Property Rights vs. Government Control

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

As the left falls all over itself to claim that building the Ground Zero Mega-Mosque is the perfect chance to “showcase” our “Constitutional freedoms” and our religious tolerance, there is another state where religious tolerance is not as noticeably on display as it is for New York’s Muslims. Naturally, in Vermont, it is the religious […]

Roger Ebert: Calls Sarah Palin Hitler, Says America Is At Fault for GZ Mosque Troubles

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Roger Ebert is nothing if he isn’t a knee-jerk leftist, absolutely without a single original political or cultural thought in his head and his latest meandering post on the Sun-Times hosted Roger Ebert’s Journal is a perfect example.

Sunday Stupid: 9/11 Debris Field Mosque And NY Times Columists

Posted on by William Teach

Happy Sunday! I had every intention this morning to write about a different topic. Perhaps about illegal immigration or climate creationism. Or, about a lost blind, deaf, 3 legged dog being found.

Unions Destroy Calif. Pension Reform Bill
