Lone elephant chases off group of wussified rhinos

This video’s been up on Yahoo’s homepage today: Yeah, like only three or four rhinos could ever beat an elephant. Oh, sure, the rhino seems like he’s backing the elephant up at first. Seems like he’s got the upper hand. Tusk. Whatever. But eventually the rhino gives up and runs away, and all his wussy […]

How about “Despair! It’s More of the Same!”

It’s hard to understand, I know, but: the Obama campaign thinks their old “Hope and Change” slogan won’t work this time around. WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Winning The Future. Greater Together. We Don’t Quit. They may not be official but those are all phrases that could in one form or another be candidates to become President […]

 


Why Obama Is Like A Televangelist Who Parties In A Brothel Every Night

It’s just so WEIRD to hear Republicans called “the party of the rich” and “the party of Wall Street” because we don’t hate the rich and believe in free market principles. On the other hand, liberals preach hate rhetoric against the wealthy while they crawl into bed with those same people at every opportunity. It’s […]

Obama To Offer Non-compromise Compromise On Contraceptive Mandate

The question is, how much will Obama scold people who have different beliefs than him, and how much will he lecture (ABC News) With the White House under fire for its new rule requiring employers including religious organizations to offer health insurance that fully covers birth control coverage, ABC News has learned that later today […]

 

Marco Rubio Walking the Amnesty Tightrope?

By: Javier Manjarres Senator Marco Rubio recently delivered a compelling and emotional speech on illegal immigration at the annual Hispanic Leadership Network meeting, but Rubio may have left many in the room, and perhaps across the country wondering if this speech marked the beginning of a ‘softening’ by Rubio on this important issue. At the very […]

 

My View On The Obama Administration’s Attack On Religious Liberty

I had been trying to write a post about the Obama’s administration’s attack on religious liberty regarding the Catholic Church for a few days, but every time I wrote one it ended up being too long, too detailed, and frankly, too angry. I don’t think I have been as shocked at any decision from this […]

Gingrich challenging the Florida delegate allocation?

Well this is interesting: The Newt Gingrich campaign is gearing up to challenge the results of the Florida Republican presidential primary based on the Republican National Committee’s own rules which state that no contest can be winner-take-all prior to April 1, 2012. (See RNC memo.) The Romney campaign — and just about everybody else, it […]

 


The Komen Foundation Caves In To Bullies

From The Hill: Susan G. Komen for the Cure has reversed its decision to cut off grant money to Planned Parenthood following an intense backlash from women’s groups and the left. The charity did not promise that Planned Parenthood will receive additional grant money, but said it would change its policies in a way that […]

 

Mitt And Newt’s Approval Ratings Of Doom Vs. Those Of Past Candidates

Mitt and Newt have been waging an all out negative war against each other and in the process, both candidates have been greatly damaged. How lasting the damage will be after someone wraps up the nomination remains to be seen, but people shouldn’t kid themselves; both Newt and Mitt have extraordinarily bad approval numbers right […]

 

WaPo Wonders, “Will the LDS Church’s Past Racist Doctrine Hurt Romney?”

The Church of Latter Day Saint prohibited black people from being members of the priesthood until 1978 because it was believed they were the direct descendants of Cain and cursed. This prohibition was, according to this article from the Washington Post, a “direct commandment from the Lord.” In 1978, the church had a revelation and […]

 

So it turns out a lot of people like the Keystone pipeline

Its sort of fun hammering this home. I have to be honest. Here’s a President who, in his State of the Union speech claims that he is doing everything in his power to ensure that American people – and especially those blue-collar American workers who are so essential to his re-election – are headed back […]

No Need to Panic About Global Warming?

You may have seen the letter in the Wall Street Journal yesterday, written (purportedly) by sixteen “scientists” who somehow think the Global Warming consensus is something they can dispute. Which, of course, they can. In response, I’m forced to wonder: has anybody ever written an anti-fisking? If not, then witness this TrogloPundit first. The letter […]

 




Liberalism In 120 Seconds: Mitt Romney Is The Harriet Miers Of Electability

What makes Mitt so electable exactly? He lost to Ted Kennedy in 94, became Gov. of Mass with less than 50% of the vote in 2002, didn’t run again in 2006 because his approval rating was in the thirties, lost the 2008 presidential primary, and this time around, has at one time or another, been […]

 

John Boehner Actually Bests a Union

There isn’t that much good news these days, so when it happens, you have to give John Boehner credit for not totally screwing up everything he touches. Last week, despite the overwhelming pressure from the Obama Administration to make any and every bill that goes through Congress as union-friendly as possible, Boehner struck a deal […]
