Liberals will rationalize anything for the sake of abortion on demand (Marjorie Clifton at HuffPo) I am the product of 14 years of Catholic school and am a practicing Catholic, actively involved in the church all of my life. As a woman with a career in politics and women’s leadership, I have quietly worked within […]
Back in October, I brought you a quick bite story about how PETA planned to get killer whales constitutional rights, saying that keeping them violated the 13th Amendment (slavery). The lawsuit against Sea World has now gone to a judge (LA Times) A federal judge appeared dubious Monday about a lawsuit filed by People for […]
Can we even term this leading from behind? He may be a “leader”, based on his position he purchased, but leading denotes guiding, directing, showing the way. Interestingly, a synonym of leading is “ruling.” Anyhow (Politico) President Barack Obama – in an act of hypocrisy or necessity, depending on the beholder – has reversed course […]
John Hawkins:: You do a fantastic job filling in for Rush Limbaugh. Are we going to see a Walter Williams radio show coming up anytime soon? Walter Williams:: No, I’ve been teaching for about thirty-five years and that would require a career change; I’m not quite ready for it. I’ve been offered jobs a couple of times… […]
Barack Obama’s trying to force Catholic hospitals to do abortions while liberals are attacking the Susan G. Komen Foundation for not choosing to give $700,000 to Planned Parenthood. You have to go back to the Aztecs to find people so dedicated to killing babies.
John Hawkins:: To begin with, the Iraqis have a vote on their own Constitution coming up soon ‘ the election, the trial of Saddam, the training of troops is coming along slowly but surely. How do you currently look at the situation in Iraq? Are we headed toward victory? Richard Perle:: We will attain a victory eventually. […]
There are a lot of things NOT to like about liberals, but you have to give them some credit. These are people who are badly, dangerously, and devastatingly wrong on almost every issue of consequence and yet, year after year, they hang in there at a rough parity with conservatives. So, they may do a […]
I was going to blog about Romney’s recent flip-flops on the minimum wage issue and bilingual education — flip-flop #36 and #37, but when I saw Ann Coulter’s recent column praising RomneyCare, I have to admit, I just lost it. She called RomneyCare “free-market” and claims it’s a “conservative” approach to health care. Apparently, the […]
Governor Mitt Romney’s statement about not worrying about the poor has been treated as a gaffe in much of the media, and those in the Republican establishment who have been rushing toward endorsing his coronation as the GOP’s nominee for president — with 90 percent of the delegates still not yet chosen — have been […]
In practice, as people invest more and more of their time in the (Occupy) movement and don’t see any results, you’ll probably see more arrests, radicalism, and violence. Then, eventually, either Donny Deutsch will get his wish and they’ll go out in a Kent State style blaze of glory, the locals will get tired of […]
As a six-time undefeated middleweight world karate champion, I have a pretty good idea what makes a warrior. And there’s presently one particular presidential candidate in the political ring who wears those gloves better than the others. It’s one thing to enter a ring with a single opponent, but what if you had to enter […]
President Obama told NBC’s Matt Lauer in an interview Sunday, “I deserve a second term.” Well, let’s see. He had the courage to tell the Supreme Court off for daring to defy him in its campaign finance law ruling. And he did it during his State of the Union speech, when they weren’t in a […]
CHURCHVILLE, VA–The earth has stopped warming, but the greenhouse gasses continue to accumulate at higher levels in the atmosphere. In fact, it seems certain that the planet will have rising levels of atmospheric CO2 for the foreseeable future. No country has actually produced substantial cuts in its greenhouse emissions, and Asia continues to strongly increase […]
For 60 years the National Prayer Breakfast has been a nonpolitical event where speakers put aside their earthly biases and focus on a Higher Authority. Last Thursday, President Obama departed from that tradition to claim the endorsement of Jesus for raising taxes. It beat the endorsement of Mitt Romney by Donald Trump. In his remarks, […]
Losing candidates usually congratulate the winner — first by telephone and then in front of their supporters. Not Newt Gingrich. When he loses, Gingrich doesn’t even bother to pretend to be a good sport. Already, insiders are calling Newt’s Saturday Las Vegas news conference the modern equivalent of Richard Nixon’s pronouncement “You won’t have Nixon […]
From: Politico. Excerpt: In another setback for President Obama’s clean energy loan programs, the recipient of more than a half-billion dollars in federal loans is laying off workers at their Delaware and California operations. Delaware’s News Journal: reports that Fisker Automotive, a California-based electric car start-up company, is laying off an undisclosed number of staff to try […]
Red light cameras are a mixed bag across the USA. Big cities love them, small cities increasingly less. But one thing is universal where ever they are tried. The whole thing is about revenue generation, not public safety. Most city administrations try desperately to hide their greed behind hoary claims of safeguarding the public, but […]
I had been trying to write a post about the Obama’s administration’s attack on religious liberty regarding the Catholic Church for a few days, but every time I wrote one it ended up being too long, too detailed, and frankly, too angry. I don’t think I have been as shocked at any decision from this […]
I have lamented on my blog that someone should start a list of all the things that are now considered racist so someone can avoid unwittingly saying or doing something that would land them in hot water. Well, no one did. So I took it upon myself. Presenting, Now Racist in the U.S. It’s a […]
Western civilization has gradually progressed away from barbaric practices. By the 20th century, most developed nations stopped torturing people and executing them in cruel ways. In the US, only humane ways of execution are permitted for executing the most notorious criminals. Similarly, support for abortion decreased in recent years as awareness spread of how […]
Grist let’s the cat out of the bag that the whole climate change movement is not about “the environment”, but about Big Centralized Government Why climate change will make you love big government This essay was originally published on TomDispatch and is republished here with Tom’s kind permission. Look back on 2011 and you’ll notice […]
Greece is a crummy little country with terrible demographics, a mediocre economy, and a massive government that has been spending far more than it has for far too long. Liberals, being liberals, in Greece and across the rest of the world, can’t accept the plain and simple truth: Greece is in trouble because its government […]
So, we can see the majority of the elements Democrats will use to attempt to get the Most Incompetent President Ever re-elected. Class warfare led by a rich guy who doesn’t pay his fair share? Check. Redistributive rhetoric led by rich guys who won’t give up their own money? Check. Blaming Congress, half of which […]
Deciding who’s the “most influential” anything is inherently an arbitrary business. It’s even more difficult in this case when we’re comparing politicians, TV personalities, radio hosts, and columnists. Still, somebody had to do it, so… Honorable mentions: Alicia Colon, Ted Cruz, Bill Flores, Devin Nunes, David Rivera, Leslie Sanchez 20) Francisco “Quico” Canseco: Congressman 19) […]
John Hawkins:: There’s an old saying: conservatives are always looking for converts while liberals are looking for heretics. Is that true in your opinion? Tammy Bruce:: I disagree. I think, in actually coming from the left, (that the left is) a religion unto its self if you will. It is really the ultimate entity that looks for […]
John Hawkins:: One thing you’ve covered on your blog is the number of liberals throwing food, pies mainly, at conservative speakers. Around the left side of the blogosphere, liberals have treated it as a big joke whereas conservatives have taken it much more seriously. What would you say to people who claim this is no big […]
It’s unusual when a reporter sympathetic to a politician writes a story that makes his subject look bad. But Ryan Lizza of The New Yorker has now done this twice. The first time was in an article last April on Obama’s foreign policy in which he quoted a “top aide” (National Security Adviser Tom Donilon? […]
Just a few stories that caught my eye over the past week, whether I blogged them or not. Click the link under each picture for more information. Link: Gator Doug. Here’s the story, but I’m also linking Obi’s Sister on this one because she’s the only Dawg I know. Nickname-wise. Not metaphorically. Sheesh. Link: Trog. […]
