Let’s be honest: There’s not a single Democrat in Congress who cares if the Obama Administration uses the IRS to target its political enemies. We’re the bad guys to them and they’re willing to do anything they can get away with to stick it to us. That’s why NOBODY at the IRS had been punished […]
If you’re a liberal who wants to ban guns without officially putting a ban in place, how do you do it? Simple. You don’t make guns illegal, you just put restrictions in place that make it impossible for anyone to purchase a handgun. That’s exactly what the liberals have now done in California. Any new […]
The first mistake the burglars made was picking a lousy profession. Their second mistake was choosing to rob people in Texas of all places. Their third mistake was locking a homeowner in the WRONG CLOSET. The victim of an armed home invasion in Houston has turned the tables on the brazen intruders after they stuffed […]
I’d love to say this is parody, but, alas, no, this is how wackadoodle the New Climate Deniers are (via Junk Science). Will Angelina Jolie Help End Climate-Change Denial, And Help The Republican Party? File this one under unintended consequences. Angelina Jolie, by announcing her preventative double masectomy, will likely have significant influence well beyond […]
An interesting juxtaposition from The Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza Can Obama bridge the divide between the two Americas? John Edwards was right. There are two Americas. In one America, the events of the past 10 days have exposed the true colors of President Obama and his administration. From edited talking points about the Sept. 11, […]
Have you heard about the lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Obamacare that has been filed in Texas? A Texas doctor sued the U.S. over President Barack Obama’s health-care reforms on claims the U.S. Supreme Court overlooked when it upheld the Affordable Care Act last year. Steven Hotze of Houston claims the law, the Patient Protection […]
BUFFALO, N.Y. — One might expect an abnormal amount of vanity among the privileged residents of Hollywood or New York City — but Buffalo, New York? Yet for years, taxpayers have footed the bill for elective cosmetic surgeries for Buffalo teachers, based on the insistence of the teachers union. It’s not because they teachers are […]
I don’t know who they are, but I’ve got to hand it to them. I’m too cynical to do what they do. I speak of the Americans who, every year, donate money to pay down America’s national debt. The Bureau of the Public Debt – part of the Treasury Department – began allowing such donations […]
Chilling effect. That’s the term lawyers and judges use to describe the result of government actions that deter people from exercising their right of free speech. There have been plenty of examples in the past 10 days. The Obama administration’s Justice Department issued a sweeping demand for two months of office, cellular and home telephone […]

Sens. Kelly Ayotte and Richard Blumenthal are currently pushing a bill that seems like such a no-brainer that it raises some serious questions about why there’s a need for actual legislation. It’s called the Never Contract with the Enemy Act and if passed, it would prohibit the U.S. government from granting contracts to foreign countries […]
On May 14 after news broke that President Obama had once again attacked talk radio host Rush Limbaugh by name, El Rusbo joked that he was “living rent-free in Obama’s head.” It’s hard to fault Limbaugh’s logic on this. After all, the President of the United States of America has used his bully pulpit to […]
We jump in the wayback machine, and learn that “smart power” was the Obama/Hillary Clinton term for how America was going to deal with the world. It is defined by the Center for Strategic and International Studies as “an approach that underscores the necessity of a strong military, but also invests heavily in alliances, partnerships, […]
“It will create a bureaucracy with the efficiency of the Post Office, the frugality of the Pentagon and the compassion of the IRS.” – Mantra of those who opposed HillaryCare in the 1990s. In the idealistic constitutional fantasies of those who harbor high hopes and short memories, the accumulating effect of the scandals piling up […]
Students, faculty, family members and friends, it is my great honor to deliver your commencement speech today. It is my opinion that our society must take every opportunity to praise our young people for their hard work and accomplishment, and that is why ceremonies such as this are so important to our country’s future. It […]
President Obama wants you to believe he is the Sergeant Schultz of unlawfully targeted IRS harassments: “I know nussink! I see nussink! I didn’t even leave ze fundraiser zees mornink!” President Roosevelt used the IRS to intimidate and exact revenge on political enemies. Richard Nixon, JFK and Clinton co-opted the agency into a partisan sledgehammer […]
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Gov. Jerry Brown recently stepped in it when a reporter asked him about the Bay Bridge. In March, 32 of 96 key rods in the under-construction eastern span cracked after they were tightened. Dao Guv — who, as Oakland’s mayor, helped delay construction of the new span to win a tony, world-class […]
Remember the 1996 movie, “A Time to Kill”? An adaptation of John Grisham’s 1989 legal thriller, it stars Matthew McConaughey as a small-town lawyer in Mississippi who defends a black man who killed the two white racists who had raped his 10-year-old daughter. In his closing arguments McConaughey asks the jury to close their eyes […]
Nice to know that some in law enforcement will not bow to the pressure and will support the 2nd Amendment Rights of law abiding citizens. (Fox News) Colorado sheriffs upset with gun restrictions adopted in the aftermath of last year’s mass shootings filed a federal lawsuit Friday, challenging the regulations as unconstitutional. The lawsuit involves […]
I highly doubt whether anyone will obtain information linking Obama to either the IRS or phone records scandal. Say what you will about his “governance” style, but the man is able to keep his hands clean. Surely no emails, phone records, or paper records will link him, nor will anyone say “yup, Obama (or one […]
1) Ted Kennedy. Barney Frank. Rod Blagojevich. Eric Massa. Marion Barry. Dan Rostenkowski. Eliot Spitzer. John Murtha. Alcee Hastings. Anthony Weiner. James Traficant. Sandy Berger. Gerry Studds. Robert Byrd. Mel Reynolds. James McGreevey. Jesse Jackson, Jr. Robert Torricelli. Gary Condit. Bill Clinton. John Edwards. And those are JUST SOME OF THE ONES that got caught. […]
Not even Barack Obama can defy the laws of physics. Certain things are absolute. As Newton said, what goes up must come down. The wrinkles you see staring back at you in the mirror validate the second law of thermodynamics: eventually things fall apart. And, as any farmer will tell you, if you plant cucumbers […]
For three more weeks, the Senate Judiciary Committee will debate the Border Security, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Modernization Act, S. 744. During the 45 years I’ve studied Washington politics, including 25 years of editorializing on the dreary subject, I can say without hesitation that no more anti-American legislation has ever been introduced. I’ve watched most […]
“We have a large government,” political consultant David Axelrod offered as a plea of ignorance to all of the scandals swirling around his boss. “Part of being president is there’s so much beneath you that you can’t know because the government is so vast.” And yet, thanks to Axelrod and Obama, we now stand on […]
Outside of Chicago’s museums gangs are killing each other at an alarming rate. But due to Chicago’s strict gun ban policies, inside those museums curators are not allowed to display historical firearms. In fact, in some cases the museums are not even allowed to store their collections inside the city limits. The matter has become […]
If we continue to let liberals run the country, there is little doubt that our currency will soon become worthless, as our rulers will continue to print it and spend it far faster than we can generate wealth for it to represent. What will we use for transactions? Once again Detroit — America’s most liberal […]
