Anatomy of Leftist Unreason

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I found a reply on my ChicagoNow blog that is so emblematic of the essential anti-Americanness of the left in our country that I thought I’d explore it in a full post instead of just replying to it on the original page on which it appeared. The comment was oozed out by some extremist named […]

 

Washington Post Ombudsman Misses Point

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Today, in his guise as the Washington Post’s ombudsman, Andrew Alexander posted a discussion about the recent misreporting by the Old Media about the various “incidents” that supposedly occurred between the admittedly raucous tea party protesters and members of Congress in Washington, D.C., during the healthcare fight. But while Alexander finally makes some admissions on […]

Posted on by William Teach

Apparently, having solved all of America’s problems, Chuckie Schumer has nothing better to do U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer said Sunday he’s trying to get the federal government to prohibit airlines from charging a fee for carry-on baggage, calling it a “slap in the face to travelers.” The New York Democrat is making a personal plea […]

 

Partying Like It’s 1994–Or 1946?

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

Restoring the economic growth of 1994 through 2006 and ending “The Great Recession” — an economy being dragged to a sclerotic halt by “the New New Deal” and its myriad of wasteful spending and top-down government controls, can and should be one of the goals of the next Congress, if indeed, the map is painted red in November.

Say, let’s play “guess the party affiliation!” Twelve-year-old war protester Frankie Hughes was arrested late Wednesday for trespassing after she allegedly refused to leave U.S. Sen. Tom Harkin’s Des Moines office. Federal security officers told police that Gaunt was on the floor in Harkin’s office. When police went to the office, they also found Frankie […]

 

Teachers Union Prays for the Death of NJ Gov. Christie

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Sadly, wishing for the death of a political opponent is so typical of the left. Pol Pot, Stalin, the Democrat sponsored KKK, the chief tool used by such folks has been terror and violence. While obviously not as murderous as the aforementioned, unions have also been a violent force in history. And in New Jersey, […]

 

Indiana Right to Life Realizes No Such Thing As a Pro-Life Democrat

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Indiana Right to Life PAC just announced that they are now barring the endorsement of Democratic candidates. “Our leadership anguished over this decision,” notes IRTL-PAC chairman Mike Fichter. “Had Democrats like Brad Ellsworth held firm in opposing federal funding for abortion in the health care bill, we likely would have rewarded such action with a […]

 

Another Motherhood-Hating, Traditional Gender Role-Attacking, San Fran Liberal

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Margot Magowan a blogger for the San Francisco Chronicle must have gone to college. I say that not because she seems so well educated, but because she seems to hate traditional gender roles. After all, the only place that women become radical feminists is in college because the real world does not teach such balderdash. […]

 

Pot Calling the Kettle… Unions Say Banks are Corrupt

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Hill Newspaper is reporting that unions are “amping up” for a battle against America’s big banks when Congress is next in session.

Union Chief Claims He Witnessed ‘Racism’ At Tea Party…Yeah, Riiiiight

In fact, Breitbart has offered $100,000 for video or audio proof of […]

 

How Much Is a Seat in Congress Going For?

Posted on by Dave Blount

Bart Stupak will slither away rather than face the wrath of the voters he betrayed. Here’s how the left is trying to spin the situation: Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) plans to announce his retirement today, Democrats briefed on his decision said. Stupak, the leader of a pro-life faction within his party, had received death threats […]

 

16 and Pregnant? Feminists Say Abort. On TV.

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

For those of you who don’t subject yourselves to the horror known as reality television, there is a show on Viacom’s MTv station, called “16 and Pregnant.” I have issues with the show, not the least of which is that it is a form of exploitation of teen girls— pregnant teen girls, to boot. Pregsploitation, […]

 

Rep. Wasserman Schultz; Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Actually, I think I’ll say “Liar, Liar, Skirt on fire” just to tick off her feminist sensibilities.:  Debbie Wasserman Schultz is a huge liar. Yes, a liar. In the video clip below, she blatantly lies and says that the health care bill, which she voted for, does not require mandatory insurance. This is an outright […]

 

Outrageous: FBI Uses Non-Violent Conservative Group as Bait to Catch Stalker

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Senator Patty Murray (D, Wa) doesn’t want to hear from her constituents if they are upset at her vote for Obama’s take over of our nation’s healthcare. One voter in particular has earned Murray’s ire. He has almost daily called Murray’s offices and in no uncertain terms informed the Senator that he hates her healthcare […]

 

Greenspan: Moonbattery Set Off Financial Crisis

Posted on by Dave Blount

Yesterday long-time Chairman of the Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan was called before Congressional bureauweenies to be scapegoated for the financial crisis they caused.

Vulnerable Democrats: Health Care Bill? What Health Care Bill?

Posted on by William Teach

Hmmmm. This super duper wonderful going to fix all the ills of the USA health care legislation has Democrats out and about, happy as clams, talking up their massively awesome legislation. No?

Obama’s Increased Use of Death From the Skies, Where’s the Anti-War Left?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Washington Think Tank New America Foundation has been reporting on drone strikes in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iraq for quite some time and its tally of kills by U.S. drones reveals an interesting thing. It shows that drone kills under President Obama are far and away higher than those under Bush. Reliable numbers of those […]

 

NPR’s New Abortion Terms Skews Toward Pro-Abortionists

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

National Public Radio has decided to change its labels for the two sides of the abortion issue. Unfortunately, its change skews the debate rhetorically in favor of the pro-abortion side by softening the fact that they are for abortion and by making of their position a “right.” Previously, NPR was using the terms “pro-choice” and […]

 

Obama Signals Enemies that Nuking U.S. Is A’OK With Him

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

President Obama is known for bowing to foreign dictators, emperors and Kings but it is such a chore to do it individually. Flying around the world to bow to each killer, oppressor, and tyrant is so time consuming. If only he had a way to do it to every American enemy at once it would […]

 

Ohio’s Rep. Kaptur: Coward of The County (Vote Rich Iott)

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Ohio Representative Marcy Kaptur voted yes on the socialist take over of our nation’s helathcare system. She then proudly announced that she’d hold a healthcare townhall back home in Ohio over the break. But then she canceled it. Why? Because she got wind of the fact that a few tea party folks from her district […]

Unions Cutting off Noses To Spite Their Faces

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Despite all our talk of CommieObamie being a socialist, it is a straight out fact that the far left in America are mad that Obama didn’t turn us into the U.S.S.R. lite the second he took office. His pace at selling us out and turning us into a social democratic system ala France isn’t happening […]

In The Future, Everyone Will Be A Klansman For 15 Minutes

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

In 2008, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) was smeared as a Klansman by his opponent. That didn’t stop Cohen for dusting off the smear this past week — along with namedropping Kristallnacht — against the Tea Partiers.

 

Obama Throws White Half Under the Bus. Again

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

The New York Times apparently thinks they have a scoop by revealing that Barack Obama is *officially* black. You would think that was a shocking discovery, based on how it appears to be a note-worthy revelation to the New York Times. It is official: Barack Obama is the nation’s first black president. A White House […]

 

Unions Killing Chicago Convention Biz

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Chicago Tribune has an editorial that shocks for the outrageousness that is the corruption and overcharging that unions have forced upon the convention business at Chicago’s McCormick Place. It is so bad, the costs are so outrageously higher in Chicago, that conventions are fleeing the city in droves (as we’ve discussed here several times). […]

 

New Survey Explains Why So Many Young Folks Vote Democrat
