Scott Lee Cohen: Case in Point How Chicago Media Covers for Criminal Democrats

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Well, the Chicago controlled Illinois media has done it again. It’s allowed another unsavory Democrat candidate with criminal propensities to slide by unnoticed and to be placed before the voters un-exposed as the low-end sort of fellow he is. And, just like clockwork, this drug addled nut has been elevated to nominee by the Democrat […]

 

Dems Illinois Lt. Gov. Candidate and His… uh… Peccadilloes, The Jerry Springer Democrat

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

-By Warner Todd Huston I just can’t get excited about Scott Lee Cohen, the wacky Lt. Gov. that the Democrats have chosen to represent them in November. Sure he’s the Jerry Springer candidate, sure he’s violent, roided up, and sort of scummy. But, he’s upfront about it all, he’s honest about his general scumminess. And […]

 

Dem Senate Hurries To Push Liars and Symps into Power Before Brown Comes to Town

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It’s Katie bar the door as the Democrats in the Senate try to push as many liars and Big Labor crooks into positions of power in the Obama Administration as they can before they lose their super majority once Scott Brown of Massachusetts is seated on the 4th of February. On Monday, the Democrats pushed […]

 

Democrats: What’s The Plan? Obama: A Rousing Speech!

Posted on by William Teach

Apparently, most Democrats were a wee bit scared of asking Obama tough questions during his live televised questions and answers session, but, woops! The media was still present afterwards Senate Democrats held back from asking President Barack Obama about healthcare reform during a carefully scripted question-and-answer session in front of television cameras. With the cameras […]

 

Another Chicago Alderman Goes to Jail — THIS is Heartening Progress

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Alderman Ike Carothers is going to jail over his corruption. The wormy apple didn’t fall too far from the diseased tree, either, because Ike’s daddy, himself a former Alderman, went to jail for corruption in 1983. Ike joins a dozen other Chicago politicians in the Big House. But I am here to say that I […]

Posted on by William Teach

Of course, Blanche is facing some serious issues in her re-election bid, no thanks to hitching her star and votes to President Neverhadarealjob, but, she looks to be taking the politically expedient route to the hearts of her constituents Lincoln, who faces a tough reelection fight, asked Obama to push back against “people at the […]

 

Obama Shouldn’t Fire Rahm Emanuel For Saying “Retarded.”

Posted on by John Hawkins

Ironically, after my last post, I’m going to have to…shudder — defend Rahm Emanuel — and disagree with Sarah Palin’s latest comments. I would ask the president to show decency in this process by eliminating one member of that inner circle, Mr. Rahm Emanuel, and not allow Rahm’s continued indecent tactics to cloud efforts. Yes, […]

 

Where’s the Outrage: 1 Year Later, Gitmo Not Closed

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

One of the first things that Barack Obama did after being swept into office on the wings of “hopenchange” was to sign an executive order that would close the terrorist detainee facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. President Obama gave a one-year deadline after which he triumphantly informed us the facility would be closed. Well, we […]

The Obama Administration Is Creating Political Instability

Posted on by John Hawkins

Thomas Friedman, in one of his more obtuse moments, is completely misreading the gossip he’s hearing at the Davos World Economic Forum: As a political barometer, the Davos World Economic Forum usually offers up some revealing indicators of the global mood, and this year is no exception. I heard of a phrase being bandied about […]

 

Obama’s Aide David Axelrod, Portrait of a Demagogue

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This weekend Obama adviser David Axelrod gave us a perfect example of the art of empty demagoguery. Comments made by Axelrod concerning Obama’s state of the union speech shows an over statement meant to mask the truth in order to evoke sympathy for his boss, the President. Sadly, the truth is the victim here. The […]

 

Illinois: Why Government Cannot be Trusted

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Government is often called the “necessary evil.” But whatever it is, as each day passes we see that the “evil” part of that axiom seems ever more true. We can see the pernicious qualities of government at every level from local, to the state, to the era of Obamaism in the federal government. But if […]

 

Union Chief: Senators Are ‘Terrorists’ For Not Voting With Big Labor

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Service Employees International Union President Andy Stern said that Senators that vote against his ideas are “terrorists.” That’s right, folks, this union chief is saying that any politician that votes against the politically motivated ideas of Big Labor should be branded a “terrorist.” This is the sort of gutter rhetoric that union thugs specialize in […]

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

“This isn’t the person I campaigned with back then,” John Kerry recently said of John Edwards. But Kerry’s surprise at the duplicity of his running mate doesn’t jibe with what Kerry’s former campaign manager wrote about the two men.

 

These Two Women Could Turn Me Into a Misogynist

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar are an utter embarrassment to my gender. I find them offensive, as a woman. Idiocy, in action: From: NewsBusters: On HLN’s Joy Behar Show on Thursday, Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg gave a racial explanation for Chris Matthews’ recent “I forgot he was black” remark about President Obama. Goldberg cracked that […]

 

Heritage: Unions Ate Your Raise

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

James Sherk has a very good post over at the Heritage Foundation’s The Foundry blog about how unions have hurt us all by fighting for tax increases. Unions almost never go on strike anymore. Instead, they fight to get more for their members by lobbying for tax increases. Unions spent tens of millions of dollars […]

Justice Alito: A Fancier “You Lie”

Okay, maybe not a fancier “You Lie”,:  but more refined, shall we say.

Obama’s Lobbyist Slams Masks Big K Street Payday

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In his State of the Union speech, the president puffed up his chest, fixed his Mr. scornful face, and once again pulled out the populist’s handbook to bash those evil, monstrous lobbyists. Obama mentioned lobbyists seven times in his address and in every case they were used as a scapegoat to explain away Washington’s inability […]

 

Teachers Union Ruins NY Shot at $700M in Stimulus

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Being a good conservative, I am torn on this story! It seems that the teachers union in New York State refused to comply with some simple requirements in cooperation with the state government so that New York could qualify for $700 million in federal stimulus money from a program known as Race to the Top.

Firedog Lake: Why Should Republicans Change A Winning Strategy For Obama?

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Why, indeed? Unless you’re Newt Gingrich, but that’s another political story. Jon Walker says: So, when Obama asks Republicans to be bipartisan, he is asking them to make a very bad personal, political, and professional choice. Working with Democrats would require Republicans to give up a working political strategy. It would increase the chance that […]

 

Dems Turn on Each Other as the Wheels Come Off

Obama: The Perpetual Campaign Is Bad, So, Donate $15, UmKay?

Posted on by William Teach

I’m sure many of you watched the State Of The Union address last night – except those who played a drinking game, and were probably passed out or worshiping at the alter of the Porcelain Goddess 10 minutes in – but, I’ll admit, I missed about 2/3rd’s, as I was watching the Devils/Sabres game (a […]

Exclusive Interview: Chief of Obama’s TelePrompter Advance Team

Dennis Byrne, a columnist with the Chicago Tribune, has a great piece asking the seminal question: what politician will take on the public employees unions?
