Once Again Unions Find a Pliant Judge to do Their Bidding

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In another example of why unions are antithetical to good government, a pliant, left-wing judge in California has ruled that the Schwarzenegger Administration cannot furlough state workers that belong to three powerful public employees unions. Governor Schwarzenegger has been battling to cut his over spent state budget for several years now and one of the […]

 

Another Example of Obama’s Radical Leftist Agenda

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Over at the American Thinker, Jay Schalin has another example of the radical leftist agenda that Obama is trying to pull over on the American people. This time we see it in the extremist agenda for education that Obama is trying to implement by revitalizing the National Advisory Committee on Institutional Quality and Integrity (NACIQI), […]

 

Democrats on Rasmussen Polls: The Numbers Ain’t Right and The Question is Flawed

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Politico published a Jan. 2 we-shoot-the-messenger styled story about lefty bloggers and Democrat activists who are upset that the Rasmussen polling group has so often found numbers trending in support of the GOP position. Not only has Rasmussen found that Obama’s approval rating is going down steadily, but it has been finding that Republicans […]

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

On a previous episode of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Conservatism, Babe and I interviews the delightful Leon Weinstein, Russian immigrant and capitalist booster.

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 […]

 

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, […]

Posted on by William Teach

I have a novel idea for those liberal pantywaist bedwetting hand wringers who are worried about invasive measures designed to protect flyers: don’t fly As the federal government begins an inside-out review of airport security after a passenger allegedly sneaked explosives onto a plane last week, attention is turning to a growing debate over a […]

 

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 […]

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 […]

 

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 […]

 

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, […]

 

Cokie Roberts Proves She is a Liar

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I am finding it increasingly impossible to discuss current politics without pointing out that Democrats and liberals are simply a pack of liars and “journalist” Cokie Roberts fits quite neatly into this category for what she said about the healthcare debate on ABC’s This Week Sunday morning talk show. As Brent Baker of Newsbusters reported […]

 

One Again Teachers Union Shows Kids Don’t Matter

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

-By Warner Todd Huston A recalcitrant teachers union in Florida once again shows that reform for the sake of the kids doesn’t interest it. A federal program called Race to the Top bestows federal money on any district that institutes merit pay and reforms its schools. Guess who hates the idea. Yep, you guessed it: […]

There hasn’t been much news about it in the U.S. but an American citizen has been arrested by Cuban authorities and has been placed in one of Cuba’s most secure facilities.

Govt Healthcare Will Give us ALL Pay Cuts

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Big Labor has, for the most part, fallen all over itself to help its patron President get his Obamacare policies passed in Congress spending millions to do so. If Obamacare should pass many millions will lose their healthcare and will be forced into government healthcare. According to the CBO at least 10 million will lose […]
