With Friends Like These…

Posted on by Michael Fell

As the GOP nominee to be President of the United States, it would seem reasonable to expect that members of your own political Party would support you. Apparently, for Mitt Romney, that is an unreasonable expectation. Peggy Noonan, a former speech writer for President Ronald Reagan (who joined with Colin Powell in turning their backs […]

Posted on by John Hawkins

We know less about who’s winning many of the key states right now than you might think.

Posted on by Michael Fell

Leave it to the “progressive” Party Pravda (in the form of Holly Bailey and Yahoo News), on precisely the morning they desperately need to change the subject, to magically stumble across a Mitt Romney quote recorded at a closed-door fundraiser earlier this year. This is a typical “progressive” tactic used to distract attention away from […]

 

NFL Pulls Ref From Game Over ‘Open Rooting,’ Will Media?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The National Football League seems to have done it right.

One wonders if the Old Media establishment should do the same thing […]

 

Another Day Another Disaster

Posted on by Michael Fell

Barack Obama’s foreign policy approval numbers plunged in a recent poll.:  This is no surprise at a time when NATO is pulling back in Afghanistan, a move that is heightening doubts about the future of that country.:  NATO’s decision, which leaves Obama’s exit strategy in doubt, makes his claims of “progress” in that arena suspect […]

 

A State Of The Race Report For 9/19/2012: Romney Is Where He Needs To Be To Win The Race

Posted on by John Hawkins

When is a tie not a tie in politics? When an almost universally known incumbent is tied with his challenger at about 46% with a mere 48 days before the election. Why is that not a tie? Because it means that roughly 8% of the electorate is familiar with Barack Obama, isn’t sold on him, […]

White House: Mid East Attacks Not Premeditated

Posted on by Michael Fell

Why is the EPA Funding a Private Newspaper?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Environmental Protection Agency has been indulging its inner propagandist by spending at least $3.5 million to float newspaper that is purportedly “reporting” on the EPA’s pet issues.

White House Fails at Home and Abroad

Posted on by Michael Fell

Why are Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the White House obsessed with apologizing for an amateur video that no-one had heard of, seen or cared about?:  Why are they so obsessed with singing the praises of “a great religion” who’s leaders are the world’s leading proponent for mob violence and mass murder?

Updated: Not ‘Two Decades’ After All… Lilly Ledbetter Deceived DNC, Knew Of Her Pay Disparity Since 1992

Posted on by Matt Vespa

It appears that not only is Lilly Ledbetter ignoring Senate Democrats who pay their female staffers less, but her claim that for “two decades” she didn’t know she was being shortchanged is patently false. : Hans Bader, Senior Attorney at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, emailed me his piece on Lilly Ledbetter’s speech — where he says: “it’s […]
