You all know who he is.But I’m not going to repeat the name of the 22-year-old crazy person who stabbed or shot six young people to death near the UC Santa Barbara campus last week. I’m not going to quote from his insane 137-page “manifesto,” either.It just spews his pathetic reasons for why he planned […]
A Louisiana school teacher is behind bars for having sex with a student and exposing him to the AIDS virus. Knowingly exposing someone to a deadly virus — in this case a minor — means multiple felonies, but what if this student contracts AIDS from the illicit encounter — or if it’s determined to be […]

As Hollywood grows more and more out-of-touch with ordinary Americans, laughing at all the idiotic things celebrities say has become a national pasttime. Gwyneth Paltrow in particular seems to be a never-ending source of unintentionally funny quotes. After she compared being mocked on Twitter to the horrors of war, a Purple Heart recipient wrote this […]
Horrible! This is an absolutely terrible decision by President Obama to acquiesce to the very people American soldiers gave their lives fighting. AP reports the only American soldier held prisoner in Afghanistan has been freed by the Taliban in exchange for the release of five Afghan detainees from the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, […]
Duck Dynasty chieftain Phil Robertson has some advice for the GOP. They better “get Godly” or they will continue to lose elections. Robertson is not backing down in any way at all from what liberals called his “controversial” comments last year, either. Bill Hallowell tells us… “Duck Dynasty” patriarch Phil Robertson, who recently doubled down […]
The openly gay mayor of Houston, Texas, has declared that men should be allowed to use women’s bathrooms, dressing rooms, locker rooms, and showers.

So much for having freedom of association, private property rights, or being allowed to observe religious convictions in Colorado because now a “civil rights panel” in Colorado’s state regulatory scheme is compelling a Christian bakery to a wedding cake for a gay wedding. The Associated Press notes that Colorado’s Civil Rights Commission has issued its […]
Serendipity is a stone cold mother, isn’t it?

With so much raging around his ears, especially the VA scandal, for which the Eric Shinseki has finally thrown himself on his sword (though O called him a super awesome guy and the problems weren’t really Shinseki’s fault), O decides that nothing else is as important as instituting “carbon” rules for power plants, artificially raising […]
Calling someone a “racist” used to mean that a person disliked certain people because of their skin color. Today, MOST OF THE TIME, it means something entirely different. Now, if someone is better and smarter than a liberal, a liberal cries “white privilege.” If a liberal is failing and he doesn’t know what to do […]
The opinion pages, economic journals and liberal websites are atwitter (a-Twitter?) these days over French economist Thomas Piketty’s “Capital in the Twenty-First Century.” Left-wingers cite Piketty’s statistics showing growing wealth inequality — though some have been challenged by the Financial Times — in support of Piketty’s policy response, huge taxes on high incomes and accumulated […]
Some of you may believe partisanship is a healthy organic reflection of genuine disagreement in the nation, but for the well-known political scientist Norm Ornstein, there is nothing more devastating than inaction. Nothing. So years after lamenting the existence of partisanship, he’s come up with another way to deal with our dawdling government: term limiting […]

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York rejected the arguments of an atheist group that wants “In God We Trust” removed from U.S. currency. The plaintiffs claimed that being forced to carry around money with the motto violates their Constitutional rights. In a nutshell, the court dismissed their complaints as much ado […]
Rather than using money to hire more doctors or nurses, VA money went to people who were paid to do union business. In 2012, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs paid at least $11.4 million to 174 nurses, mental-health specialists, therapists, and other health-care professionals who, instead of caring for veterans, worked full-time doing union […]
A police officer was awarded $1.35 million in his racial discrimination suit against the town of Freeport, New York. The jury agreed there was “overwhelming” evidence that Christopher Barrella’s race cost him the job. What makes this case unique is that Christopher Barrella is white. A Long Island jury sided with Lt. Christopher Barrella after […]
We don’t treat prisoners in Gitmo like this: A friend of the U.S. Marine being held in a Mexican prison on gun charges has compared his plight to that of a prisoner of war, telling Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren that Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi told him he had been beaten and chained to a bed […]
The Obama version of deportation: Scores of undocumented immigrants from Central America have been released at Greyhound Lines Inc. bus stations in Tucson and Phoenix over the past several days after they were flown to Arizona from south Texas, officials acknowledged. Andy Adame, a spokesman for the Border Patrol in Tucson, confirmed that over the […]
Plenty of people have expressed outrage at the growing VA scandal, which ultimately cost Eric Shinseki his job. But not many had the guts to openly call out Barack Obama, as Navy veteran Montel Williams did in a brilliant Fox News appearance. “I’m angry because, you know, we made a promise. When I stood with […]
PETA is mostly useless, with their suggestive advertising and idiotic ventures like a “lobster empathy center”. But for once, they actually did something good: they helped bring Ashley Richards, 23, to prison for making disgusting videos where she tortured animals for people’s sexual pleasure. Ashley Nichole Richards pleaded guilty to three counts of animal cruelty […]
Oh, he thought that just because he had billions of dollars, all he had to do was flit into a New Jersey school system, spread some of his cash around, and voila kids would get a “good” education. But reality was a different thing as when Mark Zuckerberg tried it, he found that the greedy […]
It is tempting to say that the Veterans Administration crisis — which has taken the lives of at least 40 veterans in Phoenix alone — is the inevitable consequence of socializing medicine. But more than the federal bureaucracy was required to make the VA the catastrophic debacle it is today; it took the combination of […]
Bad as Republicans can be, Democrats are far worse. Next time someone hands you the cliché that there isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between the two, point them to the Freedom Index: A Congressional Scorecard Based on the U.S. Constitution rates congressmen based on their adherence to constitutional principles of limited government, fiscal responsibility, […]
Every so often, there will be a hand-wringing article about how millennials are the most spoiled, narcissistic generation of Americans ever, followed up by a defensive article (written by a millennial) insisting that every group of adults says that about the youth that follow them. It would be hard for most people to recall examples […]
It’s not easy being Carl DeMaio. This openly gay man is running for Congress in California, and he’s been the target of some of the most irrational hatred I’ve ever seen thrown at a political candidate. One group created an ad with DeMaio’s face on the body of a drag queen. Then on Wednesday, DeMaio’s […]
“Credit for what?” (via The Lonely Conservative) (Washington Free Beacon) State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki was openly mocked by the assembled press corps Thursday after saying President Obama “doesn’t give himself enough credit for what he’s done around the world.” Associated Press reporter Matt Lee asked sarcastically whether he deserved 200 percent credit, while another […]
Well, Team Obama and Democrats certainly works harder to make sure that illegals are treated better overall (video available at Mediaite) (Politico) Sarah Palin says illegal immigrants are getting better health care than the country’s vets. “In many respects, illegal aliens in our country today are receiving better health care, more benefits than our troops,” […]
Like millions of other American parents, my husband and I received a warning letter from the BMI police last week. Our active, healthy 8th-grade daughter is “very lean,” according to her school-administered “Fitnessgram.” The national student body monitors think this is a public health problem. The obesity report card lectured that because our daughter’s body-mass […]
