Why A Conservative Third Party Is A Terrible Idea

  Respectfully, I have to disagree with: Herman Cain’s call for a Third Party in the strongest of terms. It might be emotionally satisfying, but it would be doomed before it got started. Appearing on Bryan Fischer’s radio program this afternoon, Cain called for a large faction of Republican Party leaders to desert the party and […]

Election Means More Cronyism, Attacks on Coal

Following President Obama’s reelection, coal stocks took a hit in anticipation of an acceleration in his war on coal. Lining up against coal as well is the natural gas industry, which has cozied up to both the administration and environmental groups in an effort to knee-cap its energy competition: Public outrage at cronyism and corporate […]

Elections Have Consequences: 2012 Edition

When you toss a rock in a pond, it creates ripples and when a man like Barack Obama wins re-election, it has consequences. A UN Gun Control treaty. Hours after U.S. President Barack Obama was re-elected, the United States backed a U.N. committee’s call on Wednesday to renew debate over a draft international treaty to […]

Surprise! Obama Supporters Want Israel Dead

RebelPundit’s Anne Sorok exposes the Left with their own words, as Obama supporters were out celebrating From The Blaze on Sorok’s video “It really mean to me, no more Israel,” one supporter said. The rest of the man’s answer is almost entirely indiscernible as English. However, TheBlaze will try to transcribe his comments as accurately […]

My Two Cents: Why Obama Won And Romney Lost

This will probably be the last post on the meaning of this loss, but, this is part of a conversation I was having with a moderate Republicans who voted Obama and a moderate Liberal who voted Romney late yesterday. Consider that, in exit polls, 52% said that the country is on the wrong track. Only […]

Don’t Blame Romney

We spent billions of dollars and billions of words on an election to switch from President Obama, a Democratic Senate and a Republican House to President Obama, a Democratic Senate and a Republican House. Every election predictor was wrong, except one: Incumbents usually win. Republicans have taken out a sitting president only once in the […]

The Day After…

Well, we lost. : Mitt Romney didn’t win comfortably. : BUT, Republicans maintained control of the House of Representatives. : In one of the most ignominious highlights of the night, the GOP lost two senate seats — increasing the Democratic majority by two. : The current makeup is 55 Democrats to 45 Republicans. : In a milestone for the ladies, […]

I’m Not Bitter — Much

President Barack Obama’s re-election puts Republicans on notice. No matter what we do, the media will portray us as extreme, venal, stupid or anti-woman — if not as individuals, then guilty by association. The GOP nominee must bear the burden of admittedly medieval statements on pregnancy and rape — uttered by Senate hopefuls Richard Mourdock […]

Democrats Are the Silent Majority — For Now

Don’t get too depressed, Republicans; the national decline will be divvied up justly. After all, in a liberal nation, there is no higher calling than fairness. And a liberal nation it is. The electorate is complicated, and factors of culture and geography can dictate party identification more than any specific policy. And yes, the Republicans […]

Groundhog Day in America

Barack Obama won a moderately close victory over Mitt Romney on Tuesday. But oddly, nothing much has changed. The country is still split nearly 50/50. There is still a Democratic president, and an almost identically Democratic Senate at war with an identically Republican House, in a Groundhog Day America. Obama’s win did not really reflect […]

Four more years of decline

Great nations and proud empires have always collapsed from within before they were conquered from without. President Obama’s re-election mirrors the self-indulgent, greedy and envious nation we are rapidly becoming. Pollsters Michael Barone and Dick Morris got it horribly wrong. Both predicted a 300 electoral-vote win for Romney. It was President Obama who reached that […]

Why I Was Wrong

I’ve got egg on my face. I predicted a Mitt Romney landslide and, instead, we ended up with a President Obama squeaker. The key reason for my bum prediction is that I mistakenly believed that the 2008 surge in black, Latino and young voter turnout would recede in 2012 to “normal” levels. Didn’t happen. These […]

When Infinite Inflation Isn’t Enough

If no one seems to care that the Titanic is filling with water, why not drill another hole in it? That seems to be the M.O. of the Bernanke Federal Reserve. After the announcement of QE3 (also dubbed “QE Infinity”) created yet another round of media chatter about a recovery, the Fed’s Open Market Committee […]

It’s Time To Clean House In The Republican Establishment

  The Republican Party lost to one of the worst Presidents in American history with its handpicked, establishment-approved candidate despite the fact that the economy is terrible, there’s a foreign policy scandal making headlines, and Obama ran a poor campaign. Despite the fact that we were perfectly primed to take over the Senate, we blew […]

What has changed?

The GOP increased their majority in the House of Representatives.:  The “progressive” Democrats held on to a slim Senate majority.:  Barack Obama still occupies the White House. With fifty three House members demanding that Obama answer questions about the lethal, ham handed disaster in Benghazi and the equally bungled cover-up, do not expect a sudden […]

What Did The Elections Mean For Hotcoldwetdry?

The Warmists are already agitating for climate change (hoax) legislation (SF Chronicle) as soon as the major news networks called the race tonight, environmentalists started firing off e-mails urging Pres. Obama to turn his attention back to our warming world. They’re hoping that Obama’s re-election and Sandy’s devastation will reset the national conversation on climate […]

Election 2012: Breaking It All Down

First off, congratulations to Mr. Obama for winning a second term. However, if we look at the popular vote, this does not present a mandate. All together, we are looking a split of about 59 million for Barack to 57 million for Mitt. Doesn’t matter, because I truly expect Obama to mostly move even further […]

Last Night, You Got To See Why I Co-Founded NotMittRomney.com

In a profession that’s filled to the brim with narcissists, sociopaths, and incompetents, Mitt Romney strikes me as a competent, well organized businessman and a genuinely decent human being. Those are not things that you can say about most of the politicians in D.C., including the President of the United States. That being said, Mitt […]

The Customer Is Always Right: Don’t Blame The American People For Romney’s Loss

Barack Obama has been one of the single worst Presidents in American history. He’s decimated the economy, bungled foreign policy, driven the deficit into the stratosphere, poisoned the well with Republicans in Congress, and he has shown himself to be a petty, mean-spirited, corrupt racist who’s habitually self-absorbed and incompetent. Now, some people might agree […]

Welcome to the Dependent States of America

Please check individualism and creativity at the door. Wealth creators need not apply or we will confiscate it. For every dollar you create you will redistribute to others who did not earn it. If you complain we will have the United Nations seize your firearms and you will be eliminated. Does this sound far fetched? […]
