Video or Bust

How can an administration that believes that Islamists need a reason to attack us apart from their default hatred of infidels conduct a coherent foreign policy? Even if its assessment were correct, how can someone who is presumably sophisticated enough to become the so-called leader of the Free World believe he can convert Islamists overnight […]

Note to Paul Krugman: Here’s Real “Eliminationist” Rhetoric

Have you noticed that the left regularly condemns alleged conservative “hate speech” but is almost completely silent on the most pervasive hate speech in the world? Take New York Times columnist Paul Krugman, for example. On Jan 8, 2011, in Tucson, Ariz., Jared Loughner murdered six people and gravely wounded Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. That very […]

Benghazi Crime Scene — The Trailer Did It

“We believe that folks in Benghazi, a small number of people came to the consulate to replicate the sort of challenge that was posed in Cairo,” U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice told ABC’s “This Week” Sunday. “And then as that unfolded, it seems to have been hijacked, let us say, by some […]

War through weakness

“How could this happen?” asked Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in response to the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya that killed Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others. The rioting by Muslims supposedly “inflamed” by a cheaply produced YouTube film about the Prophet Muhammad was cited as the reason, but we have […]

An Untrustworthy White House

One person was killed and dozens more were injured when protesters attempted to storm a U.S. outpost in Pakistan.:  More flag covered coffins will arrive in the U.S. after four American soldiers died over the weekend as a result of ‘insider’ attacks in Afghanistan. : There are claims a video shows U.S. Libyan Ambassador Chris Stevens […]

Hotcoldwetdry Targets To Cost UK Motorists

It’s interesting how the social beliefs of Leftists end up hitting everyone in the wallet, eh? (Telegraph) Motorists will subsidise a move to ensure ten per cent of transport energy comes from renewable sources such as biodiesel made from maize or sugarcane. However, the target will cause the cost of biofuel to increase and demand […]

The Difference Between Netanyahu & Obama on Iranian Nukes

Obama looks at Iran as a POLITICAL problem. If the Israelis bomb Iran, it might hurt his chances to be reelected. If Iran gets nukes it might hurt his chances to get elected. If there’s a war in the Middle-East, it might hurt his chances to get reelected. There’s no urgency, no seriousness, no indication […]

Islamist Protests Continue, Islamists Offer US Ultimatum

Don’t forget: this is all about some stupid film released months ago, and not about the US. Or the spread of extremist Islam (Fox News) Hundreds of protesters demonstrating against an anti-Islam film torched a press club and a government building in northwest Pakistan on Monday, sparking clashes with police that left at least one […]

Happy Birthday Occupy Wall Street

It’s Occupy Wall Street’s first birthday. : Occupy: was supposed to address the frustration and anger of the 99%: is probably one of the largest operations in political astroturfing in American history. : I’ll let Andrew Breitbart and his team explain the rest when: Occupy Unmasked: comes out later this Fall. However, even if it’s astroturf, Occupy was an outlet for […]

The Consequences of Obama’s Bungled Mideast Policy

In Libya, U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three colleagues were murdered Tuesday. Earlier that day, protesters in Egypt stormed the U.S. embassy and tore down the American flag. It was “the day the roof fell in,” proclaimed blogger and historian Walter Russell Mead. Barack Obama’s “efforts to reconcile the U.S. and moderate Islamism — in […]

White House: Mid East Attacks Not Premeditated

The attack on America’s Benghazi consulate was not premeditated. It was all about the video. So said the White House, so said the State Department, so said U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice: “Our current best assessment, based on the information that we have at present, is that, in fact, what this began […]

Say, Why Is The Arab World So Easily Offended?

The Washington Post’s Fouad Ajami poses this question, and works to answer it, which is rather strange, considering that so many Liberals constantly tell us that it’s not the 1.3 billion plus Muslims who are bat guano violent, just a small minority. Ajami seems to be saying that all are like this, at least in […]

“Living within your means is so inconvenient”

It sure is. Who knew? We all have a desire to live in that world, the world of the free lunch, the world where I pay little or nothing for a poor choice or an extravagant one. But that world cannot exist without the financial help of someone else. And eventually, the money or the […]

The Media’s Rape of Reality

I didn’t want to write this column. I definitely didn’t want to use these words. I wanted to write about something else, but after the events of this week, I had no choice. I am here to report a rape. To protect President Obama from the failure of his administration to anticipate or respond appropriately […]

The Democratic Convention Bounce … And What To Do About It

Romney’s behalf in this election is a four-year-long shift of voters who no longer consider themselves Democrats and are now either Independents or Republicans. Since 2008 about 6 percent of Democrats have left the Party, and the GOP has gained about three points (the rest becoming Independents). In the aftermath of their Convention, however, the […]

Rachel Marsden: Is Putin the Russian Reagan?

It would seem that we’re now at the stage of global economic lunacy where the worldwide socialist slide is so far gone that the president of Russia is lecturing the world, and particularly Europe, about the risks of socialism. Speaking at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference in Vladivostok, Russia, Vladimir Putin promoted the merits of […]

Price of Obama’s ‘College Affordability’

“No family should have to set aside a college acceptance letter because they don’t have the money,” President Barack Obama told the Democratic National Convention as he accepted his party’s nomination in Charlotte, N.C., this month. That sentence — key in Obama’s “college affordability” agenda — says everything about this administration’s approach to selling itself […]

All Americans Should Stand Up And Say Thank You Sheldon Adelson

All that America should say to Sheldon Adelson, a self-made billionaire who grew up poor and today donates hundreds of millions of dollars annually to charity is Thank You. This great patriot has a family foundation which devotes hundreds of millions to charities, offers tens of thousands of people a chance to prosper, and truly: is […]

Equipping the ‘Freedom Fighters’ at #FreePACOhio

Certain states hold extensive political clout since their large population allots them a high number of Electoral College votes.:  California has the most with 55 votes. You can add the fact that California will go Democratic to the end of the list of the other two certainties, death and taxes. Frankly, they can keep California.:  […]

Recovery Lagging for Middle Class

So much for Obama being the “President of the middle class”… According to the Census Bureau, income for the middle class fell 8 percent to its lowest level since 1995. “The New York Times” severely understates the case saying that this “poses a challenge” for Barack Obama as he vies for a second term According […]

Why is the EPA Funding a Private Newspaper?

The Environmental Protection Agency has been indulging its inner propagandist by spending at least $3.5 million to float newspaper that is purportedly “reporting” on the EPA’s pet issues. Unfortunately for the readers of this newspaper, the fact that the EPA is its sugar daddy is never told the reading public. So much for an independent […]

EPA Demands People Use More Food For Fuel

Hey, can you guess who thinks that using food for fuel is a Bad Idea? The New York Times. Obviously, the ministers at the Central Department Of Environmental Truth feel differently. And, instead of going through the legislative branch, you know, that pesky creation of the Constitution given lawmaking ability, here comes another “rule” from […]

“Don’t wipe out the masterpiece!”

“These are the astonishing masterpieces created by a high school teacher: during his 25-minute lunch break: – and then simply wiped away. “Gregory Euclide began making his ephemeral artworks to show pupils at his school in the Minnesota River Valley what could be achieved in just a short space of time.”
