How Slick Willie Exploited Oklahoma City

Posted on by Dave Blount

When the Obamunist lackeys who run the media attempt to paint Tea Partiers as potentially violent — despite the only violence coming from the left — they are implementing a strategy Dick Morris devised for their moral paragon Bill Clinton in the immediate aftermath of the Oklahoma City bombing: Morris told Clinton that “direct accusations” […]

Big Government Knifes Goldman Sachs in the Back

Posted on by Dave Blount

There is danger in dealing with criminals, as the Obama-bankrolling crony capitalists at Goldman Sachs are finding out the hard way. The firm was at the top of the list of Obama donors, and was soon rewarded with mountains of our money during the “bailout” looting spree. But next on the hit list for nationalization […]

Kerry Picket of the Washington Times found two amusing videos of California Senator Barbara Boxer, one in 2009 and one from this month, that shows the sad state of affairs in which Democrats find themselves politically these days.

Mitt Romney Wrote the Obamacare Book

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It looks like Mitt Romney is trying to be the GOP front runner for 2012. But he is one of the main influences for Obama’s socialist takeover of America’s healthcare system.

Fish Wrap: Say, Those Insurance Fixes Don’t Work Too Well In New York

Posted on by William Teach

Apparently, the Times is interested in dropping a few bombshells this weekend.

Maureen Dowd’s Insanity: Being Catholic Woman The Same As Living Under Sharia Law

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Maureen Dowd, columnist for The New York Times, has finally lost that last tenuous grip she had on her sanity. I thought she was already taking a long walk off the short pier of her sanity when she started hearing non-existent words, such as “boy” after Joe Wilson’s “You Lie” comment. That was nothing compared […]

 

Unions Killing U.S. Post Office

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Union contracts are killing the U.S. Post Office, making it uncompetitive and driving costs through the roof according to the Government Accountability Office. The U.S. Post Office lost $12 billion between 2007 and 2009 and has reached its borrowing limit of $15 billion already. On top of that the union pension fund is underfunded. Even […]

 

Cokie Roberts: Japanese Internment Was an Immigration Issue?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Why is it that lefties always get history wrong? The Jewish World Review recently published an editorial by NPR commentator Cokie Roberts and her hubby meant to urge the country toward “comprehensive” immigration reform by praising America’s history of immigrant labor. But even as much of what the two Roberts say is dead on, there […]

Gosh Darn it… The Assoc. Press is all Mad at Me (Update on NJ School Cross-Dressing Day)

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I hate it when the Old Media gets all mad at me, and stuff. But, here is the vaunted AP scolding me for “skewering” a grade school over the story of the canceled cross-dressing day that was to be held at the Maude Wilkins School in New Jersey. On the morning of April 12 I […]

 

Senate Dems Prepare to Sneak Through Tax & Charade

Posted on by Dave Blount

The coup de grâce to our capitalist economy, Cap & Trade, has gone under the radar, but is still in play.

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

On March 6, former George H. W. Bush speechwriter Michael Johns was speaking before a tea party gathering in Philadelphia when someone from the audience took exception to the fact that during his address he did not say “President Obama” but merely called him Mr. Obama.

Feminists Rejoice At Idea of Abortion For Convenience

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Feminists rejoice at the idea of abortion for convenience. They are also anti-woman. Most of us realize that the whole “safe, legal and rare” thing that pro-abortion advocates spout is lip service only. But, if you ever had any doubt, this should set that doubt aside once and for all. John Hawkins at Right Wing […]

 

Obama and His Administration Lament America’s Superpower Status

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Yesterday at his nuclear conference, Obama said the following (via Gateway Pundit): “Whether we like it or not, we remain a dominant military superpower.” Whether we like it or not. That’s like what Mommies say when telling you to eat your yucky vegetables. Would he prefer that we be vulnerable and weak? Heck of an […]

 

Obama’s Back Alley Healthcare

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

For decades abortion supporters argued that restrictions on abortion would cause women to die in unsafe “back alley abortions” all across the land. This scare tactic was a mantra that seemed to work quite well to spread abortions throughout the states and helped spur the Supreme Court to penumbra its way to a pseudo Constitutional […]

 

Perhaps You Too Can Order U.S. Census Gear From China

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Barack Obama is all about saving money, ya know? Why he’s so serious about cutting costs that he’s outsourced to China, Haiti and Bangladesh the manufacture of t-shirts, caps, pens, and other bric-a-brac for the U.S. Census. Yes, in this day where America is losing thousands of jobs on almost a minute-to-minute basis, Barack Obama […]

 

Here’s a Leftist Spin on Healthcare For You

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said that Obamacare is a ”momentous step toward comprehensive health care.” Implicit in that statement is that Obamacare isn’t finished and the left fully intends to up the ante even more as time goes on. But that isn’t the spin I announced in my headline. Here is something from the AFL-CIONowBlog […]

 

Nanny State Becomes Wet Nurse State

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Democrats have long been creepily obsessed with my fancy womb and it’s “reproductive rights”, all as just a way to mask the furthering of their own agendas. They have now moved on to being obsessed with my boobies as well. More goodies hidden in the health care bill have been exposed, literally: Nursing mothers will […]

 

Unions’ Big Shift to Government

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Unionism is failing miserably in this age of a greater world market and an increase in competition for business across the globe. More nations than ever have left behind the 18th century and are taking bold steps into a world made smaller by technology. No longer is but a handful of nations leading the world […]

 

Sweet, Sweet Irony: Health Care Bill Strips Congress of Coverage

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

My belly hurts from laughter! (is that covered, by the way?) Gee, Nancy Pelosi, that whole “we have to pass the bill before you can see what’s in it” deal isn’t working out too well, is it? What’s worse is that the New York Times, of all places, had to be the one to point […]

 

Obama’s Assault on Non-Union Businesses

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Donald Lambro has a great piece discussing the new rules that Obama wants to impose on every single business in America that derives even the tiniest part of its income from the federal government. In essence, Obama wants to impose Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) on everyone. As Lambro says, Obama wants to “shatter decades-old, competitive […]

 

Hey, Maybe Congress Should Have Read The Bill First After All

Posted on by William Teach

The New York Times (I will no longer refer to them as the F*sh Wrap, as that brings massive trackback spam) publishes a story that should have been in the humor section, rather than page A13 of the NY Edition: Baffled by Health Plan? So Are Some Lawmakers It is often said that the new […]

 

Clinton’s Legacy For The Children: The Clinton-Lewinsky Effect

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

It seems that President Clinton’s legacy involves a bit more than tired cigar jokes and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. CBS News reports: Most young adults agree penile-vaginal intercourse is sex, but less than one in five think that oral-genital contact counts as “having sex,” according to a 2007 survey of undergraduate college students. This […]

Obama Responds to Unemployment With More Green Cards

Posted on by Dave Blount

The ultimate objective of every Democrat policy is to increase the power of government, correspondingly lessening the autonomy of the individual. A favored means of accomplishing this is through liberalism’s main secondary objective: pushing the unemployment rate as high as possible. An employed American, like an armed American, isn’t helpless enough for the State’s liking. […]

 

SEIU Union Chief: My White Union Members are all Racists

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

On a panel talking about immigration on April 6, 2010, union chief Gerry Hudson of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) said that his white union members are “so fuc_ing rabidly racist” that is scares him.
