After The Daily Beast released excerpts of his warning world leaders that Israel would devolve into an “apartheid” state if it failed to agree to a peace deal, Secretary of State John Kerry walked back his comments. “If I could rewind the tape,” he explained, “I would have chosen a different word to describe my […]
Texas has a part-time legislature, and inherent in any state with a part-time legislature is the potential for conflicts of interest.Unless a legislator is personally wealthy, they must hold a job, which inevitably leads to their consideration of a bill that impacts their industry or company directly.Texas ethics laws are lax and have loopholes. Legislators […]
This is the dude that making Democrats in the White House very nervous because he’s a dogged pursuer of the truth! Originally posted at The Last Tradition
The standoff in Nevada has the hackles up on Utah’s Rep. Chris Stewart, who wants to to disarm the IRS and BLM: Rep. Chris Stewart of Utah, concerned about the armed agents that surrounded Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy’s property, is mulling a measure to cut funding for any “paramilitary units” that work for the Bureau […]
Sen. Tom Coburn has related a disturbing story: In January, soldiers from this lonely outpost of the Mexican Army drew their guns on U.S. Border Patrol agents just 50 yards into the United States. Then in March, they opened fire on Javier Jose Rodriguez, a young Tucson man visiting family in Sásabe when he was […]
How dare Sen. Inhofe speak truth to power! : That’s only acceptable if a Republican is in office: The Oklahoma chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-OK) today called on Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) to clarify comments on Islam he made on the floor of the U.S. Senate yesterday. In those remarks, Inhofe appeared to […]
Today in Odd News: V. Stiviano, the mistress who recorded LA Clippers owner Don Sterling’s racist tirade, says she’s running for president someday. Uh…great. I guess. If you thought Hillary Clinton was going to have a free ride into the White House, you’re gonna be very surprised when President V. Stiviano assumes office! If you […]
At the risk of sounding like a liberal, I generally agree with claims that “internships” are a sneaky way to extract unpaid labor from struggling young people. But it turns out most liberals are hypocrites on the issue after all. Although Obama has tried to shame Republicans who oppose a minimum wage hike to $10.10 […]
If it were any other time in the history of this country, Benghazi would be a career-ending scandal, but thanks to the echo-chamber media, the Obama administration has been able to successfully cover up the details. But they may not be able to much longer — one high-ranking military officer isn’t keeping quiet anymore. A […]
Since Home Depot threw itself whole-heartedly behind the gay agenda, repeatedly promoting it to children, I have come to think of Lowe’s as the conservative home improvement store. Looks like the Obama Regime has reached the same conclusion: The Department of Justice and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) [recently] announced a settlement with Lowe’s Home […]
The nice thing about living inside an ideological bubble like our liberal ruling class is that nothing you say has to pass the laugh test — at least, not until it gets out of the bubble. Then the guffaws begin — as when EPA commissar Gina McCarthy proclaimed that pulling the government garrote still tighter […]
Earlier this year a gun shop in California began to gear up to sell a “smart gun,” but gun enthusiasts raised such a stink about the sale that the store backed off and even claimed they never intended to sell the gun. Now a shop in Maryland has had the same experience with similar results. […]
Convenience stores are prime targets for robbers and thugs. Unfortunately for them though, sometimes they mess with the wrong person. Maen Mdanat has become something of a neighborhood hero since taking ownership of the Axis Food Mart in Tuscon, Arizona, about five years ago. “He really cares about his community and giving back,” Peter Norback, […]
What is a man supposed to do when he finds out his partner aborted his baby? For boxer Floyd Mayweather, the answer was obvious. Floyd Mayweather, who faces the heavy-handed Marcos Maidana on pay-per view Saturday night from Las Vegas, tweeted out that his recent breakup stemmed from his fiancee’s abortion. The Tweet quickly coaxed […]
But, it’s working! (WSJ) Yesterday we noted the ABC/Washington Post poll showing Mr. Obama with the lowest marks of his presidency, just two weeks after he claimed success in rolling out insurance policies under the Affordable Care Act. “This thing is working,” President Obama said of the law on April 17. Now the latest edition […]
This is what happens when someone is parsing their words so much in order to avoid telling the truth: they inadvertently let something through (Daily Caller) White House spokesman Jay Carney let President Barack Obama’s Benghazi cat out of the bag today, when he acknowledged that the president’s unilateral intervention in the 2011 Libyan civil […]
After the 9/11 terror attacks in 2001, members of the American left found one thing they could all agree on: America’s Our First Amendment rights were in peril. The American Prospect insisted on Sept. 12, when the rubble was still burning and the dead had not yet been retrieved, that “a number of government agencies […]
At the recent annual convention of Al Sharpton’s National Action Network, President Obama said his political opponents are “pass[ing] laws to make it harder, not easier, to vote.” It was another attempt by the President and his supporters to energize their base – in this case, African-Americans – through scare stories they hope will move […]
Hannibal Lecter. Freddy Kreuger. Jason Voorhees. Charles Manson. Jeffrey Dahmer. Ted Bundy. Hollywood loves a homicidal monster. But what happens when an evil being exposes the monstrosities of malign government neglect and deadly ideology? Crickets. Tinseltown couldn’t conjure a bigger nightmare than true-life Philadelphia serial killer Kermit Gosnell. He preyed on hundreds of poor minority […]
A book by a French economist on income inequality has become a pop sensation among Democratic liberal elites. Thomas Piketty’s “Capital in the Twenty-First Century,” initially released in France, has an English translation, which has received rave reviews from pundits like Paul Krugman of The New York Times. It is also the latest reason to […]
We can’t ignore it anymore – the markets are rigged. The LIBOR scandal broke almost two years ago, and the banks found responsible for manipulating that key index are still dealing with lawsuits.: Meanwhile, allegations of gold market manipulation have been simmering for over a decade and grew into an inferno after the spot price dropped […]

The Obama administration has no shred of integrity left concerning the Benghazi scandal. Caught in the act with the “loaded gun,” those in the administration are telling us it is a toy pistol, but no honest observer can possibly believe them anymore. It took a lawsuit to force the White House to release emails that […]
The Ben Rhodes memo revealing the duplicity of this administration on the subject of Benghazi reminds us about the character of those involved. That President Barack Obama could lie so evenly and so passionately (remember the second presidential debate?) is not perhaps surprising at this stage. But let’s not forget what it took for Hillary […]
News reports this week were filled with lamentations from death penalty opponents about the messy and unnecessarily painful execution of Oklahoma’s Clayton Lockett. As Andrew Cohen wrote in The Atlantic, Oklahoma corrections officials “were using an untested mix of lethal drugs, never previously used in that dosage combination, obtained through secret means, which precluded the […]
