This is what our once proud military has been reduced to.: Our armed forces are meant to defend us by killing people and breaking thing–period.: It’s not supposed to be a Petri dish for social experimentation.: Amazingly enough this report comes from Stars and Stripes, the military’s storied newspaper.: Stars and Stripes reports since the […]
Of course this must be about Obamacare (Townhall) Here’s your Orwellian Phrase for the Week: Individual shared responsibility payment. Yeah… Go ahead and try to wrap your brain around that amalgamation of contradictory concepts. The phrase is not gleamed from some glossy DNC spin-office, or a Harvard professor’s latest psychobabble posing as an academic paper. […]
There’s a reason why American men drive big pickup trucks: Women dig them. According to The Washington Free Beacon, a new poll by Insure, an independent consumer insurance website, found that women think attractive men are most likely to be driving a pickup truck.

Is it really a surprise that the governors of all 50 states are pushing back against President Obama’s push to cut their National Guard troops?

Former IRS official Lois Lerner invoked her Fifth Amendment right Wednesday not to incriminate herself when she testified before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the IRS targeting of tea party groups. Oddly, the news media and Democratic leaders don’t think it’s a big deal when a federal official — Lerner was […]
Mr. Putin’s quick takeover of the Crimean peninsula was no surprise to me. Neither was the Obama administration’s half-butted reaction: on Tuesday. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel announced that to show our support for Poland and the Baltic states after Russia’s intervention in Ukraine, the we will train more Polish pilots and expand our role in […]
This is precisely why kids don’t (or at least, shouldn’t) have any “right to privacy.” An Ohio father tracked down a Facebook predator after his 11-year-old daughter disappeared with him. In a shocking turn of events, the kidnapper is a convicted sex offender. Though the report isn’t clear on how he tracked down Sims, the […]
: Like many progressives Hillary Clinton is a total media myth.: The sun total of her life in politics is s string of mindless sound bite like “fighter for women” without a single concrete accomplishment.: There is no law with her name on it.: There is no organization that bears her name that is activity doing […]
Here’s yet another Obama gaffe ignored by the mainstream media and late-night comics. On Thursday night, Obama paid tribute to soul legend Aretha Franklin…but misspelled “R-E-S-P-E-C-T.” At least the audience thought it was funny. In addressing the crowd, Mr. Obama said, “When Aretha first told us what R-S-P-E-C-T meant to her…” He was interrupted by […]
Huffington Post is in quite a snit over the continued success of the law Texas Senator Wendy Davis failed to stop with her mob rule/filibuster combination. Abortion clinic after abortion clinic is shutting down because of it: Two abortion clinics on Thursday join the growing list of Texas providers shutting down because of restrictions passed […]
For years, Tea Party rallies were bedeviled by Lyndon LaRouche supporters carrying signs with extreme language and controversial images. The mainstream media often said the signs were signals of extremism among Tea Party activists, even though LaRouche is a cultist lefty. One of those fans has made it to the runoff stage of the Democratic […]
The New York police have released a surveillance video of another “knockout game” attack. (You know, the game liberals told us doesn’t exist.) This time, the victim is 23-year-old Kyle Rogers, who suffered a broken jaw. Rogers calls it a “coward move.” Rogers had just left his friends at a bar on Spring Street and […]
For young people, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) is an unmitigated disaster. Higher costs, worse care…the nightmare goes on. Now it looks like students at one college will pay a few dollars extra per year to cover sex change operations: University of Illinois trustees today approved a student health insurance plan for the Urbana-Champaign campus […]
They’ve been pushing this issue for years, ever since they learned that the 9/11 cross would be a part of the museum. As far back as 2011 they filed a lawsuit to stop the inclusion. Why? The typical silly argument about a cross being on government land, and because they might be offended. Mostly because […]
If your foreign policy is one of weakness, of inattention, of fantasy, what do you think will happen? (Washington Post) Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is taking advantage of the rift between Russia and the United States over Ukraine to press ahead with plans to crush the rebellion against his rule and secure his reelection for […]
Janet Murguia, the National Council of La Raza’s Chief Executive Officer, recently made an explosive charge against President Barack Obama. Murguia called the president the “Deporter- in-Chief,” a reference to what many Hispanic lobbying organizations allege is Obama’s record number of deportations. Obama, in his own defense, responded by saying: “I’m the champion-in-chief” of immigration […]
Solipsism. It’s a fancy word that means that the self is the only existing reality and that the external world, including other people, are representations of one’s own self and can have no independent existence. A person who follows this philosophy may believe that others see the world as he does and will behave as […]
According to the many experts, Republicans are expected to hold the House and could even take the Senate. This seems to be a perplexing turn of events for many in the media. “Poll: Democrats’ advantage on key issues is not translating to a midterm-election edge,” reads the headline of a Washington Post piece by Dan […]
Everyone agrees that the winter just now winding down (hopefully) has been brutal for most Americans. And while it’s easy to conclude that the Polar Vortex has been responsible for an excess of school shutdowns and ice related traffic snarls, it’s much harder to conclude that the it’s responsible for the economic vortex that appears […]
Wendy Davis will not be governor of Texas. If you believe that she will, I am perfectly willing to make a $100 wager on it for the benefit of the Navy Seal Foundation. She will, however, earn more national media attention and raise more money than any Texas Democrat in the modern era. She may, […]
Of course it is: There are many reasons why an increasing number of people are classified as obese — and now racism could be one of them. Frequent experiences of racism are associated with a higher risk of obesity among African American women, a new study claims. Scientists found that women who were more frequently […]
Yeah, go ahead, trust him. : See how that works out for you: In a joint town hall with Telemundo and Univision, President Obama made a pledge that his administration will not use Obamacare sign up data to deport illegal aliens. “Will we hear from you a pledge, a personal promise, that the information provided in […]
The racism from the left is sickening. : Almost as sickening as the way the media ignores it: Texas politicians are recoiling after a prominent Lubbock Democrat accused Republican candidate for governor Greg Abbott of “piñata politics” in a bigoted tirade and allegedly disparaged Abbott’s Latina wife. “Greg Abbott came into our house uninvited, wanting to […]
This is what justice looks like! Back in 2000, Frank K.C. Hertel and his wife fled Arizona for Europe before he could be tried for raping his daughter. After years of evading justice, he’s now been sentenced to 95 years in prison. Hertel lived a secret life until 2009–when the daughter, Heather Orr, tracked him […]
This speaks volumes about how Democrats view the role of government.: Senator Dick Durbin wants the Esquire Network’s reality show, “Friday Night Tykes,” off the air, citing concerns about “violent competitiveness” and “head injuries.” Talk about cradle-to-grave nannyism. “I call on you to immediately end this shameful, dangerous display on your network” the Illinois Democrat […]
Call me crazy, but in a country rife with academic failure and depressing education statistics, the last thing we should be focusing on is getting more “sexperts” into the classroom. Naturally, Planned Parenthood disagrees. Elokin CaPece, education director for Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region, is “offering students the opportunity to become educators and advocates for […]
John McCain is up for reelection in 2016 and one way or the other, it looks like the king of all RINOS may be retiring. It can’t come soon enough for me. PPP’s newest Arizona poll finds that John McCain is unpopular with Republicans, Democrats, and independents alike and has now become the least popular […]
