Did the election last week really mean that much? I took to my Twitter account on Tuesday to point out that the change in control of the Senate from Democrat to Republican actually means very little, despite efforts by politicians and the mainstream media to convince us otherwise. Yes, power shifted, I wrote. But the […]
NEW YORK — At a dinner sponsored by the Calvin Coolidge Memorial Foundation last Thursday (I am an unpaid national advisory board member), there was a debate about wealth redistribution. A team of Canadian students who think government should “spread the wealth around” faced off against a team of American students who think government has […]
Teenagers do dumb stuff — it’s just what they do. One teenager decided to do something pretty dumb, and microwaved a glow stick, with disastrous consequences. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when you put a glowstick in the microwave – then here’s your answer. A kid from America, named Jack, decided to ignore the […]
Here’s a story that’s likely to interest the UFO watchers. A mysterious green fireball lit up the sky in Texas — and while it appeared to be a meteorite, no meteorite fragments have been found. Just after 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, dozens of Texas residents reported seeing a fireball fly across the sky, while others […]
Racism is still alive and well in the United States, especially if you look among the liberal progressive elites. Case in point? The Minneapolis school system now needs approval to suspend any black or Hispanic student from the superintendent, Bernadeia Johnson — but suspending white students is A-OK. The Minneapolis public school system announced a […]
Remember how Jodi Arias coldly and brutally murdered her ex-boyfriend in a particularly bloody and heinous manner? Well, according to one “feminist” professor, Jodi Arias — and all women — should never have to go to jail, no matter what crime they commit. Patricia O’Brien, an assistant professor at the University of Illinois’s Jane Addam’s […]
When you get used to reading stories like this, the word “totalitarianism” is hardly hyperbole: The federal committee charged with creating nutrition guidelines for Americans is calling for fat interventions at workplaces. During a presentation at the sixth meeting of the 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC) on Friday, the committee said government needs to […]
There are some celebrities who truly go above and beyond for their fans — Garth Brooks is evidently one of them. When a cancer patient holding a sign caught his attention, she had only hoped to get an autograph… but what she got was so much more. On Friday, Brooks was performing his hit song […]
It’s said that dogs is man’s best friend, but they’re clearly baby’s best friend, too. Check out these two best pals in an adorable video, where a baby’s four-legged friend teaches her how to jump. Alexis is learning the jolly jumper. Day(kota) has a love for shadows. Put these two together and what do you […]
The young thug gave the substitute teacher a concussion with one blow and was lucky he didn’t kill the 68 year-old English teacher. It was a blow worthy of the Knock Out Game seen across the nation and it is the third time this month it has happened at that school in Philadelphia. The City […]
The utter stupidity of evil knows no bounds when it comes to lying politicians such as Mary Landrieu. I predict she will lose in the runoff in December – epically. The Dems can’t distance themselves fast enough from this loser – they have pulled all funding, because she is a lost cause and an embarrassment […]
The woman was hit in the head and only had a few bumps and bruises – she was very, very lucky. Can you imagine being on a flight – all is quiet and you are reading – then, boom! A propeller comes slicing through your window and hits you in the head. I think anyone […]
Have you heard the phrase ‘sleeping like a baby’. Well this adorable puppy Pit Bull named Cleo doesn’t want to wake up from her nap no matter how much her owner tries to rustle her from her sleep, but then again she IS a baby. A clip of the cute pup in a dream state […]
Tell me again how Palestinians cut from this particular cloth are not the equal of Nazis? They are barbaric monsters, who slaughter the innocent and offer up even their own children on the bloody alter of Islam willingly and enthusiastically. In the name of Allah, they commit atrocity after atrocity and the world yawns as […]
Obama’s legacy includes more than the recklessly irresponsible if not deliberate importation of Ebola and enterovirus D-68 into the USA. Let’s not forget Chagas disease: The tropical Chagas disease is spread by contact with the “kissing bug.” The disease is common in … countries such as Nicaragua, Guatemala, and El Salvador. About 7 million to […]
Obama never intended to ‘compromise.’ Kings don’t compromise… they rule. What’s more, he does not care about the Republican’s weak threats of impeachment. I rather think Obama would relish impeachment – it would put him center stage. He also has enough dirt on enough politicians that he actually believes they would never dare do the […]
A year after the disastrous roll-out of healthcare.gov, there’s quite a bit of confidence in all the work they’ve done to fix it, so much that they have a major backup plan (Washington Post) With the next time to buy health plans under the Affordable Care Act starting in less than a week, the Obama […]
On Friday, the Democratic National Committee sent out a letter signed by Mr. Obama, one which surely outraged the Democrats that are left in Congress, most of whom who’ve had Obama’s back, at least publicly, when he’s never really had theirs. Here’s the full text (via Breitbart) The hardest thing in politics is changing the […]
I am a conservative. I believe in the truth of traditional values, of limited government, and free markets. And I believe in personal freedom and that it is not possible without all the above. Our country has been going in the opposite direction and things, predictably, have not been going well. The American people spoke […]
Hurricane Isabel struck Washington, D.C., hard that night. It was Sept. 18, 2003. I lived in Alexandria, Va., at the time. I rode out the storm reading a book and enjoying a glass of wine. At the Arlington National Cemetery, just a few miles from where I sat, the sentinels who stand guard at the […]
Republicans may have won the Senate and kept the House, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is no inspiration, allowing President Obama to keep all of the leverage of shutting down government spending while the President wags the threatening finger of executive orders in McConnell’s face. If Ted Cruz stays the course of conservative leadership […]
It’s one of life’s little ironies that the political party most often screaming about “democracy!” is also the party least likely to care what the majority of citizens actually vote for. Tuesday’s election sent a clear message: We don’t like what the Democrats have been doing. What did Democrats hear? Well, one senior Democratic aide […]

A 42-year-old man has been sentenced to the maximum 25 years to life in prison after suffocating his quadriplegic […]
Well Well Well….President Obama was elected in 2008 on a pledge of using more “smart diplomacy” to promote American political objectives. He was going to talk to other countries and try to advance mutual objectives.

With a name like the “Kissing Bug”, this parasite doesn’t sound as dangerous as it has proven to be. It’s so dangerous, in fact, that healthcare workers are referring to it as “the new AIDS,” because of the way it develops. From The Daily Mail: Over 300,000 Americans have already been infected with the potentially […]
For some us, a $40 dinner is a blow to our wallet, but for Joe Lentini, that would have been a relief. After asking for a waitress to recommend a bottle of wine to split with his co-workers, he got a check for a jaw-dropping $4,700. From BizPac Review: Joe Lentini, who said he only […]
After an amateur French lumberjack tethered himself to a sapling as a counterweight, he was catapulted into a tree when the top fell to the ground. If that is confusing to you, we have the video that shows the whole terrible incident. From The Daily Mail: Dramatic footage has emerged showing a man being violently […]
Obama has nominated Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch to replace Eric Holder as Attorney General, and she will face a tough confirmation hearing in the U.S. Senate. Several Senate Republicans have said they are going to make her confirmation contingent on whether she opposes Obama’s proposed Executive amnesty. According to Breitbart News, It remains to be […]
