Okay, following up on my post from last night, “Newt Gingrich in the O.C.!,” unlike many other politicians I’ve met, Newt Gingrich seemed like a cold, self-superior political actor. There was no sense of inclination toward glad-handing. In contrast, videos of Sarah Palin at her book signings show a potential candidate eager to engage her […]

That’s the buzz going around some liberal blogs about a Rasmussen poll which claims that a plurality of Republicans polled would rather see tax cuts and a deficit than a balanced budget and tax increases (one supposes the increases would be used to balance it. The history of our government says otherwise). Of course I’m […]

There has been a lot of controversy over the superbowl ad featuring Tim Tebow and his mother regarding how she chose life for her son. The ad is a simple sincere look at personal story. Yet the left and the “feminists” have gone nuts over it. In 1989 this pro-life video was made featuring NFL […]

Whenever you read commentary by a liberal about Rush Limbaugh you can be sure of two things. One, they never listen to him, and two, they don’t seem to get the whole sarcasm thing. Case in point. Robert Schlesinger at USNews.com wonders why Sarah Palin wouldn’t jump on Rush Limbaugh for using the word “retarded” […]

This seems to be the year that the man made global warming scam is finally being exposed. Study after study is being shown to be a farce. I find this especially pleasing given that the narrative of the left and the media, that one was completely ignorant and a “flat earther” for not believing in […]

A few days ago I wrote that I hoped that not interrogating the Christmas Day bomber properly wouldn’t end up being the worst mistake of the Obama administration. I always felt that since Obama made the decision to listen to his Generals and deploy thousands of troops to Afghanistan, and to commit to the drones […]

When I first read the story of 12 year old Dylan Campbell, I was saddened for the family, and for Dylan. But I didn’t see how responsible the hospital was for his condition. See, this is the first explanation, as written at CBC.ca: Dylan Campbell had the routine tonsillectomy in November and was released. However, […]

Imagine if everything you thought about the world was wrong. Imagine if you discovered that the United States wasn’t a superpower, the media had lied to you about the world, other countries, war, and that our President wasn’t the leader of the free world. Imagine that you realize that the truth has always been hidden […]

At Fox News, “U.S. Attorney Steps Down From O’Keefe Case.” (Via Memeorandum.) Also, from the Times-Picayune, “U.S. Attorney Jim Letten Recuses Himself From Landrieu Phone Tampering Case.” (Via Patterico.) Also, James O’Keefe’s interview on Hannity, “The People’s Office.” Meanwhile, Marcy Wheeler keeps it up with the sexualized slanders, “TeaBugger Victimology.” And you gotta notice the […]

In the ’60s and ’70s when leftist anti-war protesters began calling the police “pigs”, police forces turned the tables and defined the epithet as “Pride, Integrity, Guts” thereby taking ownership of it. The GOP should take ownership of the “Party of ‘No’”. Why? Because sometimes – in fact, many times – saying “no” to the […]

I know that the liberal belief is that they know better than we do. That has been clear with this administration. It’s time for Obama to learn from his mistakes. When all is said and done with the Obama administration, one can only hope that his biggest mistake was focusing on the health care bill […]

Desperately seeking something they can: do right? Finish? Get some positive press for? Whichever. All of them. None of the above. Dunno. The story: WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration is considering several steps that would review the legality of the controversial Bowl Championship Series, the Justice Department said in a letter Friday to a […]

2009/10 may be the banner years for liberal propaganda and bad policy exposed. From Van Jones, to ACORN, to backroom deals, to the stimulus bill. But nothing has been more exposed than the politics surrounding global warming. First, just before the summit on climate change in Copenhagen (which enjoyed a record blizzard during the summit), […]

Blind squirrel, nut: For weeks, the right has heckled Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. for his plans to try the alleged 9/11 conspirators in New York City… Bring them to Wisconsin! …and his handling of the Christmas bombing plot suspect. And their non-handling of those Black Panthers who stood outside the polling places. Now the […]

Yes, once again it is time to dig into the obsessive-compulsive-list-making “what’s been ripening in the innards of the smartphone” file. And nobody disagrees with me about any of it. At least, when talking-out-loud most people don’t disagree with much of it. Being a liberal, lately, seems to involve saying something to the effect of […]

From the MacIver Institute, a head-in-the-sand “denier” with a PhD: A University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee professor is making headlines for his work suggesting the world is entering a period of global cooling. “Now we’re getting a break,” Anastasios Tsonis, Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at UWM, said in an interview with the MacIver Institute. Tsonis published a […]

My new Talk Radio Watch column is now up at WND! Enjoy FREE audio and webcam highlights from the week in conservative talk radio — plus the gossip, news and controversies: Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Mark Levin and more. Here’s what happened after my deadline: * Rush Limbaugh busts a move at the Miss America […]

…because a fine delicacy of a dessert, mixed with sewage, is sewage. Therefore a “diluted” purity test is…? From two months ago: Republican leaders are circulating a resolution listing 10 positions Republican candidates should support to demonstrate that they “espouse conservative principles and public policies” that are in opposition to “Obama’s socialist agenda.” According to […]

Jim Ryan, whose finance director was convicted as part of the Tony Rezko kerfuffle, is targeting Andy McKenna with bogus attacks: because he knows: McKenna’s the guy to beat for a run-off. Redstate seems to appreciate the wisdom in supporting McKenna. I know folks in the McKenna camp. He’s a rather establishment fella, but not bad and […]

Actually, this seems like a comment from folks like snark-ass JBW: Dear Dr Douglas: If you want to see the Liberty Bell, or the place where the Declaration of Independence was debated and signed, we have the originals here in Pennsylvania; you don’t have to see faux copies. But actually, that’s from Dana at Common […]

Surprisingly, AP does it (credit where credit is due). They cover the “spending freeze” (it would amount to less than 1% of the deficit) which we’ve covered in some detail. They also point out that the nonsense about the health care plan preserving the “right” of Americans to keep their doctor and their plan isn’t […]

Here’s the latest from the Washington Post, “ACORN Foe Tweeted About Planned Sting of Sen. Landrieu’s Office” (via Memeorandum). However, no tweet cited there says any such thing: On New Year’s Eve, conservative activist James O’Keefe telegraphed across the Internet that he was up to something big. On the social networking site Twitter, he said […]

It was bitter and divisive, attacking not only Republicans and blaming Bush (please! enough already), but attacking the Supreme Court as well (I still can’t get over Justice Alito mouthing “That’s not true”). But the idiot line of the night does not go to Obama. It goes to Chris Matthews of MSNBC who declared after […]

A friend of mine owns a wine/tobacco shop outside Atlanta Georgia. It’s called the Tinder Box in Alpharetta, GA. He says that the bill described below could literally put him out of business. He said that last year Congress raised the price of tobacco by imposing a federal tax, then they outlawed the sale of […]

Ah, the “blame Bush” fallback is alive and well over one year after the president has been out of the media eye. As defensive as ever, President Obama can’t help sneeking in excuses and jabs at the “far-right” and the situation he “inherited” every second he gets a chance: Even after paying for what we […]

Obama blames a “deficit of trust” for our troubles. It’s Jimmy Carter all over again. America, this is all your fault.

I do believe they have lost their minds. Has the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee just become another Media Matters? Good grief. E-mail in full below: From: “Jon Vogel, DCCC Executive Director” Date: January 27, 2010 2:08:11 PM CST To: Subject: Fact Check FOX Reply-To: dccc@dccc.org Friend — Your commitment to fighting for the President’s vision […]

Everyone has their opinion on the slow crippling disappointment Americans feel about Pres. Obama. Some say he is too cool and distant. Others say he kept too many of the Bush administration’s policies. But the truth can be found in a series of miscalculations and this boondoggle of a health care bill. When I find […]
