Here is a heartwarming tale of your education tax dollars at work. At a recent school event at a New Jersey public university, a tax paid professor said that Joseph Stalin, the murderous head of the Soviet Union during the WWII era, never committed any crimes against humanity. “I have yet to find one crime […]
Now that Barack Obama’s effective campaign of personal destruction against Mitt Romney has succeeded his moderate mask is off like a prom dress. The days of change we can believe in will be replaced with fear and despair we can count on. The President is now free to be the transformational figure he has always […]
One of the reasons this country is going downhill so fast is that conservatives and Christians continue to support organizations that are hostile to our values. Take UPS, for example. Its decision to publicly attack one of the finest organizations in America, the Boy Scouts, for putting kids first and staying true to its Christian […]
Obama hasn’t held a full press conference in over eight months. He did not take questions during his post-election victory statement, and relegated the lapdog media to the corner during that one. It will be interesting to see if Obama gets tough questions, as The Politico’s Maggie Budoff Brown and Josh Gerstein posit, or get […]
My line on secession is the same as it always has been, which is that the question of whether states have a right to secede was decided during the Civil War and the answer was “No.” That being said, secession petitions have become all the rage since the election. It’s traditional for Americans to threaten […]
To answer the question right up front, no, this is most likely not a serious movement to secede. Certainly not in deep blue states like Brokeifornia (10,036 at time of writing), NY (12,806), and Massachusetts (107), among others. Most of the petitions are carbon copies of all the others. Heck, it took 5 minutes for […]
The GOP is behind the Democrats in numbers and one of the biggest ones is our get-out-the-vote and fund raising effort. In fact, it is entirely possible that if Mitt Romney had Barack Obama’s GOTV campaign in place while Obama was saddled the disastrous Project ORCA that the GOP used, it might have been enough […]
Here’s a which-is-better question for you. Suppose a New Jersey motel room rented for $125 a night prior to Hurricane Sandy’s devastation. When the hurricane hits, a husband, wife and their two youngsters might seek the comfort of renting two adjoining rooms. However, when they arrive at the motel, they find that rooms now rent […]
While Secretary of State Hillary Clinton boozes it up in Australia and the Pentagon grapples with more floozy eruptions, outraged military families are still waiting for answers about the forgotten 9/14 attack on Camp Bastion. Muckrakers and distraction engineers are having a front-page field day with the so-called “sex scandal.” But for surviving relatives and […]
Democrats won big last week. So government will continue to grow. Individual freedom will yield. At least some people with records of supporting liberty were elected: Sen. Jeff Flake in Arizona and U.S. Reps. Justin Amash and Kerry Bentivolio in Michigan and Thomas Massie in Kentucky. Also, Washington and Colorado voted to allow any adult […]
Some media pundits see in the growing proportion of non-white groups in the population a growing opposition to the Republican Party that will sooner or later make it virtually impossible for Republicans to win presidential elections or even to control either house of Congress. But is demography destiny? Conventional wisdom in the Republican establishment is […]
Asked what could effect a change in his governing plans, incoming British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan said “events, dear boy, events.” Events are what will save the Republican Party. Start with a fundamental question: Are President Obama’s policies right or wrong? If you think they are correct, stop reading this column right now. Events will […]
The conservative Gotterdammerung is finally here. “Like dazed survivors in a ravaged city, America’s conservatives are wailing and beating their collective breasts,” opines the Economist’s “Lexington” columnist. “A leading conservative thinker,” asked by the Economist to “list today’s conservative ideas, laughs bitterly and replies, ‘Are there any?’” Former Reaganite Rep. Vin Weber (R-Minn.) laments in […]
CHURCHVILLE,: VA–If President Obama still cares about more: U.S.: jobs and high food costs he can now immediately gain on both.. An economist in Indianapolis just calculated that the U.S. is losing: a million jobs: this year–along with $30: billion: in economic growth–because we shifted too much of our corn into ethanol. Tom Elam says direct employment in the food industry would […]
PARIS — French public reaction to American CIA Director Gen. David Petraeus’ suicide-bombing of his own career demonstrates a lack of understanding of the perceived offense in favor of a blind defense of libertinism. It was learned last week that Petraeus had an extramarital affair with his biographer, reserve Army officer Paula Broadwell (who, like […]
Nobody likes to lose. But defeats can prove advantageous if used as a learning tool. Newt Gingrich lost his first two congressional campaigns, but won his third. Twenty years after his first defeat, he changed the nation with the Contract With America. Those who may be disheartened and dismayed over Tuesday’s election results might want […]
On November 11th of each year, we pause to reflect on the service and sacrifice of the men and women of our Armed Forces. Our nation’s veterans – many of whom have given their lives in defense of our freedoms – to protect our constitutional rights. On this Veterans Day, it seems a bit different, […]
If you’ve ever wanted proof that women love a man in uniform, then: just look to David Petraeus and John Allen. The FBI probe into the sex scandal that prompted CIA Director David Petraeus to resign has expanded to ensnare Gen. John R. Allen, the commander of U.S. and NATO troops in Afghanistan, the Pentagon […]
The Obama Administration: may be about to engage in unconstitutional social engineering via lawsuit? Not a shocker, right? President Obama intends to close “persistent gaps” between whites and minorities in everything from credit scores and homeownership to test scores and graduation rates. His remedy – short of new affirmative-action legislation – is to sue financial […]
By John Hawkins TPNN Contributor Get used to: stories like this one: because you’re going to see a lot of them in the coming years. Hostess Brands permanently closed three bakeries Monday, including a plant in St. Louis where 365 jobs were cut, in response to a bakers’ union strike that started Friday. The bankrupt maker of […]
While the “progressive” Party Pravda is dutifully focused on distracting Americans with stories about the tragic resignation of former CIA Director David Petraeus,: the White House goes merrily along with its anti-growth, anti-business, anti-energy, radical fringe leftist “progressive” agenda.: The Barack Obama administration is now making plans for the next phase in fundamentally transforming America […]
@toure I don’t know if anybody has ever said this to you before you race hustler, but if not let me be the first: You can kiss my white ass — John Hawkins (@johnhawkinsrwn) October 4, 2012 Not only is Obama not going to call you back after Your First Time, he’s going to run […]
The Obama administration has finally released its report on the number of Americans on foodstamps. This report was released nine days past its traditional release date and just coincidentally days after the election. Shockingly, those numbers show that Americans on foodstamps is at an all time high. Worse the report shows the highest one month […]
Of all the misguided, corrupt and deranged ideas floating around inside the D.C. bubble, perhaps the single worst one is giving illegal aliens amnesty as part of some sort of attempt to capture the Hispanic vote. If the GOP were to pursue a policy that primarily benefits corrupt business owners, the government of Mexico, and […]
Would it surprise you that this is mostly about the climate change hoax? (Telegraph) Under proposals presented to the city council on Monday, Socialist mayor Bertrand Delanoë intends to outlaw by September 2014 the use of cars and utility vehicles more than 17 years old and lorries or buses more than 18 years old. Motorcycles […]
Many people got on John Boehner’s case for saying that Obamacare is now “the law of the land.” Unfortunately, he’s right. With the loss of the race for the White House, and no control of the Senate, there is now way for the GOP to repeal it, or even water it down and/or limit its […]
I admit that I really haven’t become much of a social conservative until about the last eighteen months. : I mostly took libertarian position on issues like gay marriage and abortion — some of which I still maintain. : However, being an adoptee and seeing the utter rot inherent on the political left, especially when it comes […]
Yes, demographics talk will dominate the political discourse — and it should worry us. : Immigration, as an issue, and Republican ineptitude to convey : a sensible policy to ameliorate our perceived anti-immigrant leanings, ruined the Californian Republican Party forever. : Furthermore, New York and Pennsylvania are, to coin a term from Senator-elect Ted Cruz, “unalterably” Democratic. : Based […]
Ouch! From Richard Nixon to Al Gore, candidates who have suffered defeats in close presidential elections, either in the Electoral College or popular vote, probably have felt the feelings of disappointment, shock, and frustration that Mitt Romney is experiencing right now.: While President Obama secured re-election with a majority of the popular vote and an Electoral […]
Mitt Romney now joins the long list of the kinds of presidential candidates favored by the Republican establishment– nice, moderate losers, people with no coherently articulated vision, despite how many ad hoc talking points they may have. The list of Republican presidential candidates like this goes back at least as far as 1948, when Thomas […]
