The Tea Party vs The Status Quo

Posted on by Michael Fell

Much has been said since the November 2010 election about “establishment Republicans” co-opting Senators and Representatives elected with Tea Party support. What “establishment Republicans” evidently refuse to accept is, every Republicans elected in November 2010 owes huge thanks to the Tea Party. “Establishment Republicans” need to understand that Tea Party grassroots activists have had enough […]

 

Obama’s YouTube Hack-U-Mentary Censors Most Negative Feedback

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Apparently it’s all sweetness and light, unicorns and fuzzy bunnies in the YouTube comments section of Obama’s new hagiographic, hack-u-mentary short film directed by Academy Award-winning director David “star-struck” Guggenheim. Barely a cross word is seen there about the Obammessiah since most negative comments seem likely to have been deleted from the YouTube page leaving […]

 

Now Illinois Dems Want Crook They Supported in Primary to Step Down?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Now the very same accused criminal that Chicago Democrats wanted people to vote for in Tuesday’s primary is being pressured to to step down from his office now that he won — pressured by the exact same Democrat officials that told people to vote for him only three days ago. This particular story is a […]

 

Dear Conservatives: Romney Isn’t One of Us But We Still Hold The Power If…

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Romney is not conservative. Anyone that says he’s conservative is only trying to convince themselves and is willfully ignoring not only Romney’s entire executive record when he was governor of Massachusetts, but ignoring all the tell-tale signs that his current conservative-tinged campaign rhetoric is just a show to get the nomination. Romney doesn’t mean a […]

Good News! Politico Manages To Find Nine Dems Willing To Embrace The Obama Mantle

Posted on by William Teach

They’re literally fighting for Obama’s mantle, which seems to violate the “new tone”. Very violent rhetoric. Not quite as violent as Joe Biden telling me that “We’ve all got a dog in this fight.” I thought dog fighting was barbaric, violent, and illegal. So, if anyone gets caught dog fighting, blame Joe. Anyway (Politico) While […]

 

Welfare, Not Work: Obama Shuts Down Minority Business Agency

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Hosannas. Obama has finally cut some federal spending. But noting which agency he shut down is sort of emblematic of his whole welfare/big government-pushing presidency. On Friday, the Department of Commerce announced that it would be shutting down all five regional offices of the Minority Business Development Agency, an agency that was created by Richard […]

 

Chicago Democrats Say Voting for a Criminal is Better Than Voting for Republicans

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

If you want an example of why Democrats are truly a party of criminals, you have but to look to Chicago for your examples and not just because Chicago has one of the highest rates of Democrat pols being convicted of crimes. This particular election, Chicago Democrats are actually urging voters to vote for a […]

 

Grasping at Energy Straws

Posted on by Michael Fell

In February 2012 New York Democratic Senator Charles Schumer called upon Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to request Saudi Arabia increase their oil production to make up for potential disruptions in the world’s oil supply resulting from Iranian saber-rattling. Schumer’s unhidden rationale was that such a pledge from the Saudis would drive down gasoline prices […]

 

More obamacare Lies

Posted on by Michael Fell

“obamacare” was sold on a lie and passed against the wishes of the majority of Americans. To make matters worse, in an unprecedented move, the man who administers Medicare and Medicaid was appointed in a clearly obvious move to bypass the Constitutional provision for Legislative oversight. You won’t be keeping your healthcare and your doctor […]

Obama’s Dept. of Justice Rejects Texas Voter I.D. Law

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Obama administration’s Department of Justice under embattled Attorney General Eric Holder has rejected Texas’ pre-clearance application for its new voter ID law. The feds say the state did not prove that the law will not discriminate against minority voters, especially Hispanics. DOJ’s head of the civil rights division, Tom Perez, sent a six-page letter […]

 

What Now Passes as Today’s “News”

Posted on by Michael Fell

Monday March 12, 2012…Today’s “news” begins with the headline: The Most Aired Political Campaign Ads. A sub-headline reads: Obama’s “Unprecedented” commercial was shown 6,190 times before Super Tuesday. At first, by mentioning campaign ads from multiple candidacies, this article flirts with the idea of integrity. A flirtation which disappointingly dissolves in the face of the […]

 

Bill Maher and the Last Bastion of the Intellectually Lazy

Posted on by Susannah Fleetwood

As many of you are now aware, Bill Maher (as well as a host of other commentators on the left) has a long history of making sexist, uncivil comments with regard to conservatives, and conservative women in particular. In fact, Maher’s misogyny has gotten so out of hand, that now many noted liberal columnists, such […]

 

Team Obama Really Excited To Treat Women As An Uninformed Voter Block

Posted on by William Teach

Whether or not this contraceptive/abortifacient mandate rule was intentionally passed to shift the focus from Obama’s pathetic record on the economy, deficits, debt, energy prices, wasting money, etc, that has been the upshot, with his buddies in the MFM falling right in line, such as this front page NY Times article: Obama Plans Big Effort […]

 

Texas Dems Fundraiser Falsehoods, Wisc. Dems, More False Accusations Against True The Vote

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Using falsehoods to sell candidates to voters has an unfortunate but long history in these United States. It is bad enough when mud is slung between single candidates in hard fought electoral contests, but when official communications from established political parties is based on outright falsehoods, one has to take a step back. Such is […]

 

The No Exit Primary

Posted on by John Hawkins

Sorry I didn’t get this in sooner, but Jean-Paul Sartre was calling me from beyond the grave. He dialed me up to say that he’s rewriting No Exit so that Hell is actually this primary season. It features a “front runner” who’s the least conservative candidate since Nixon, the least electable since Goldwater, and the […]

 

False Fronts: Obama Still Pretending Fluke is an Innocent Kid

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

If you want to see how the left skews the narrative using untrue claims and false imagery to sell a message, you don’t need any other example than President Obama’s recent press conference where he continued to perpetrate the myth that Sandra Flake is somehow an innocent coed, a kid barely out of high school, […]

 

Post-Super Tuesday Analysis

Posted on by John Hawkins

The grueling Republican primary season continues with more of the same. Romney won the biggest races and the most delegates, but given his crushing advantage in money, organization, endorsements, and conservative media help, his performance was underwhelming. Mitt did win his home state of Massachussetts, Virginia (where only Romney and Paul were on the ballot), […]

WARNING: If You Use Carbonite Computer Backup Service, Cancel it NOW

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

There is accidental “hypocrisy,” where you didn’t actually realize that you have committed the logic/moral sin, and then there is rank hypocrisy, that time when you do two things that are totally opposite each other yet you defend both. The on-line computer backup company, Carbonite, has committed the latter over this business with Slutgate and […]

 

Slut-Gate: Obama’s Orchestrated, Left-Wing Campaign Plan

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

You know the story by now, right? Republicans run the he-man women haters club. As the media has it the story goes like this: poor, unassuming, innocent Georgetown coed, accidentally ends up in front of Congress pleading for “reproductive rights.” Evil mean conservatives led by scalawag Rush Limbaugh unfairly call her a slut and announce […]

 

Rush Limbaugh Is Not The Problem

Posted on by Michael Fell

This is not a defense of Rush Limbaugh. Rush can take care of himself. This is about a much bigger problem within a much bigger picture. Have you seen the latest hit piece on Yahoo’s Destination 2012 web-site by David Crary of the Associated Press? Not surprisingly, this latest salvo is aimed directly at Rush […]

 

Worst President Ever: Obama’s Intimidation Tactics Continue

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Obama and his campaign apparatus have been filling the minds of possible campaign donors with calumnies and untruths about the left’s newest, favorite whipping boys: the Koch brothers. Typical of left-wing demagogues, most of what Obama has been saying about the two libertarian leaning businessmen is simply untrue. But that doesn’t seem to stop him […]
