2009, Our Turn to Be Offended

Posted on by Sharon Soon

Here’s a thought: now that it’s officially post-December 25, it’s amazing how people who have been saying “happy holidays” for the past month, swearing that there are multiple “holidays” this season, magically remember the distinct name of the next upcoming “holiday” and revert back to saying “Happy New Year”. I suppose that out of all […]

 

Two Americas: One Struggling, One Happy, Unionized, and in Government

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I know I’ve said it before, but unionism is antithetical to good government. It is impossible to have both unions and effective government in a democratic republic such as ours. Unions destroy good government, waste money at all levels and they move strictly against the best interests of the voters in all cases. Once again […]

 

DeMint Decries Union Obstruction in TSA

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Democrats are trying to paint the GOP as “obstructionists” for blocking the appointment of Obama’s choice of Erroll Southers to head up the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). Democrats are claiming that by blocking the closure of debate on Southers the GOP is trying to obstruct “tighter security at airports.” But there is an ulterior […]

 

Chgo Sun-Times Says Healthcare is a Right

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It has come to this. A newspaper in one of America’s biggest cities has so sold out to extremists, left-wing ideology that it has throw logic, facts, and reality to the four winds in order to sell Obama’s socialist healthcare policies. In a recent editorial the Chicago Sun-Times has absurdly determined that healthcare is a […]

 

Is Ben Nelson Ending His Political Career With His Health Care Vote? Sure Looks Like It!!

Posted on by John Hawkins

When “Abortion bill” Ben Nelson publicly took a bribe to throw pro-lifers under a bridge on health care, he may have taken a fatal hit to his political career in Nebraska. These numbers from Rasmussen are just stunning: 1) 2012 Nebraska Senate Race Dave Heineman (R) 61% Ben Nelson (D) 30% Some other candidate 5% […]

 

Where Are You Frum, Anyway?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Canadian David Frum is like the cross-eyed marksman, he can see the target but just can’t ever hit it. The self-styled conservative has been the Old Media’s leading conservative in attacking, well, other conservatives. Naturally his Dec. 25 piece on theweek.com is no exception. Not only does he attack other conservatives, as is his wont, […]

 

Under Dem Rule, No One at the Wheel at Key Anti-Terror Agencies

Posted on by Dave Blount

Why are we left to rely on private Dutch citizens and random luck to spare us from major terror attacks? Because under the regime of Hope & Change, there is literally no one running our security agencies. It seems our socialist rulers have been too busy nationalizing the healthcare industry to see to the defense […]

 

Voting Rights Chief In Black Panthers Case Transferred Out Of D.C.

Posted on by William Teach

I’m sure the transfer was just routine, and had nothing to do with the case, and this was not about retaliation, right? Right? RIGHT? The veteran Justice Department voting rights section chief who recommended going forward on a civil complaint against members of the New Black Panther Party after they disrupted a Pennsylvania polling place […]

 

Tea Parties: The Biggest Mistake We’ll Make in 2010

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It’s the end of 2009, the “aughts” are over, and we are about to embark on a new year — and what else are they but the “aughts”? Well, besides mostly a horrible and thankfully passed decade. In any case, we are at the end of the year and that means two things: lists about […]

 

No Church on Christmas, Mr. President? Of Course Not, Communists Don’t Do Church

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Time Magazine reported that President Obama and his family didn’t attend a church service this Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. He is, to my knowledge, the first president to skip a Christmas Eve service for a long, long time. But, while it is interesting to note that Obama is quite unchurched in a position where […]

Apparently, Being Dem Means Not Having to Pay Rent

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Long time Democratic Chicago Pol Monique Davis hasn’t paid the rent for her offices since 2002. Apparently it doesn’t matter either. After all, she’s a Chicago Democrat and the rules real people have to live by don’t apply to a Chicago Democrat. And like a true Democrat Davis is blaming everyone else. It isn’t her […]

 

Old Media Whines That Palin is Mean to Them

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Get the pity party violin music warmed up because Ezra Klein and Dave Weigel are whining that Sarah Palin has forced them, the press, into a “submissive role” because she is so mean to them. Klein favorably cites the analysis of Weigel who whined that the “Palin problem” has “put the press in a submissive […]

 

Chgo. Mayor Daley’s Bro Pleads for Dems to Return to Center

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Chicago Mayor Richard Daley’s brother, William, is warning the Democratic Party that it is going too far left and will end up “in the wilderness” in 2010. William Daley has been a longtime political operative that has been connected with the Clintons for many years but that doesn’t make him an extremist lefty, apparently… at […]

 

ACLUs War on Christmas on Hold Due to Economy

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Peter Hannaford of the American Spectator reports that the ACLU has suddenly found some tight budgeting times with the announcement that one of its long time patrons said he couldn’t donate the tall cash he usually donates because of his own harsh economic realities. Apparently the ACLU sent out a letter that told its followers […]

 

Union Blocks Red Cross Blood Donation

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In their greedy desire to steal even more money from employers one union has even gone so far as to block Red Cross blood donations from getting to a hospital as well as picketing blood drives from private companies. In other words, these union thugs have put money and their quest for power above the […]

 

New Ad: Lefty Group Calls Obama a Liar

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

A lefty Political Action Committee called Bold Progressives PAC is fed up with the political lies of … President Obama. They are chiefly upset at his lie that he never campaigned on the public option part of his socialist healthcare plan. Being good commies, Bold Progressives are a bit ticked off that Obama took a […]

 

Dems: We Need Clean, Renewable Energy, But Don’t Try And Implement It

Posted on by William Teach

We are only allowed to talk a good game about alternative energy sources, you know Senator Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation in Congress on Monday to protect a million acres of the Mojave Desert in California by scuttling some 13 big solar plants and wind farms planned for the region. But before the bill to create […]

 

Health Travesty Passes, Fish Wrap Blames The Right For Partisanship

Posted on by William Teach

Amazingly, after Democrats have crafted bill to replace bill to replace bill in the dark of night, in closed session, which only included Democrats, after they shut Republicans and Republican ideas completely out – not to mention any ideas, such as came from John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods – it is somehow, in Grey […]

 

Cuz Animals Are People Too, Ya Know?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I’ve always been amazed at liberals when it comes to their absurd penchant for acting as if animals are somehow just like people. This anthropomorphizing of the animal kingdom is fine if you are talking with kids, reading fairy tales, or creating entertainment, but when you are talking like adults about science or generally about […]

 

Surprise: Obama Springs to Action With Federal Cash for Alabama

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Tropical Storm Ida happened well over a month ago, almost two now. But regardless, the great father in Washington has generously opened up the federal purse to help those struggling folks that lost so much to that storm. The devastation was so bad that USA Today said of the storm, “Tropical Storm Ida slogged ashore […]

 

Healthcare Monstrosity Will Mean More Money for ACORN

Posted on by Dave Blount

It will be years before we know just how much of a crime Democrats are inflicting on this country with the Obama/Reid/Pelousy healthcare power grab. But a few details have already come to light. For example, the election-stealing, child prostitution-enabling criminal enterprise where Comrade Obama cut his teeth will be soaking up still more of […]

The Fire ‘Em All Approach to Voting is Just Silly

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Many good, honest conservatives want to fire all of Congress. One of the latest efforts is a website called goooh.com (as in GetOutOfOurHouse.com). Believe me, I understand the feeling. Congress has miserably failed to satisfy the voters. They’ve been arrogant, they’ve spent more time accumulating personal wealth than legislating, they’ve casually ignored the entirety of […]

 

Kwanzaa Created by a Rapist and Torturer?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Every year I post a pre-Christmas piece on the farce that is Kwanzaa. This year will be no exception. Note, some of the newspaper articles I quote are several years old so some may no longer be online. Each year, with the onset of Christmas, we are treated to another gauzy, fluff piece about how […]

 

Professor: Say, Let’s Pardon a Domestic Terrorist

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

CUNY Graduate Center professor David S. Reynolds has an idea. He wants to pardon an American criminal that is a known murderer and fanatic and who led a life that was steadily radicalized by an extreme religious ideology. This domestic terrorist even went so far as to attempt to start a war inside the USA […]

 

Do you Believe in Santa, the Tooth Fairy, and the Stimulus?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Christmas for adults is never quite the same as Christmas for the under 12-year-old set. Not that it’s all bad if you are an adult, it’s just that it takes a different form for adults. For kids it’s all about the magic of Santa Claus. When you believe it all seems so wondrous. This blindly, […]

Y’all remember William “Cold Cash” Jefferson? Do you remember what happened? A private individual promised to give him $400K if Jefferson would help a high tech company called iGate by persuading the Army to test iGate’s products, as well as attempt to influence officials in 3 countries.
