Aussie Climate Alarmists Get Their Inner Fascist Groove On

But, then, the whole climate change (hoax) is built on a fascist model, whereby they attempt to shut down any debate and dissent (Daily Telegraph) THE whitewash begins. Now that the carbon tax has passed through federal parliament, the government’s clean-up brigade is getting into the swing by trying to erase any dissent against the […]

A Brutally Honest Evaluation Of The GOP Field In Order Of Preference

The candidates I’d support for President, in order of preference, with candid evaluations of each campaign: 8) Ron Paul: Paul is serious about the Constitution, getting spending under control, and paring back government. So, there are some things to like about him. However, he’s a Libertarian, not a conservative, his foreign policy views are way […]

Why does America defend the weak and small?

Recently, an open mic caught French President Nicolas Sarkozy and American President Barack Obama jointly trashing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Sarkozy scoffed, “I cannot stand him. He’s a liar.” Obama trumped that with, “You’re fed up with him, but I have to deal with him every day.” In one of the most bizarre op-eds […]

If Not Romney, Who? If Not Now, When?

So now, apparently, we have to go through the cycle of the media pushing Newt Gingrich. This is going to be fantastic. In addition to having an affair in the middle of Clinton’s impeachment; apologizing to Jesse Jackson on behalf of J.C. Watts — one of two black Republicans then in Congress —- for having […]

A Little Hardball With Chris Matthews About John Kennedy

I just interviewed MSNBC “Hardball” host Chris Matthews about his new book, “Jack Kennedy: Elusive Hero.” You know things didn’t go well when, a few minutes after the interview concludes, Matthews’ booker emails my producer: “I wish you would’ve let me know that Larry was planning on attacking Chris. Chris is always up for a […]

Penn State: the Banality of Collaborative Evil

When the Israeli government captured Nazi mass murderer Adolf Eichmann, journalist Hannah Arendt was struck by the fact that Eichmann appeared to be a nondescript accountant type. He was not highly intelligent, and he did not appear to be particularly vicious. This led Arendt to the conclusion that anyone could, under the right ideological circumstances, […]

What Makes Anyone Think Mitt Romney Is So Electable?

Mitt Romney lost to Ted Kennedy in 1994. Then, he decided to run for President because his approval rating was in the thirties and he would have lost had he run for a 2nd term as governor of Massachusetts. Next, he lost to John McCain for the GOP nomination in 2008. This year, the entire […]

Puerto Rico’s revival

Since the congressional super committee appears unable, or unwilling, to take a lesson from Indiana or Virginia — where Republican governors have made spending cuts and delivered budget surpluses without damaging the social safety net — members might wish to consider Puerto Rico and what its governor, Luis Fortuno is doing. Fortuno is Puerto Rico’s […]

An Important New Book on China

A just released book, “Bowing to Beijing” by Brett M. Decker and William C. Triplett II, will change forever the way you think about China — even if, like me, you already have the deepest worries about the Chinese threat. As I opened the book, I was expecting to find many useful examples of Chinese […]

Obama Has a Knack for Ticking off America’s Friends

The election of Barack Obama, we were told, would bring new respect and friendship for America in the world. No longer would we be led by a Texas cowboy ignorant of and indifferent to world opinion. Instead, we would have a visionary leader sympathetic to the governments and peoples of the world. But Obama’s best […]

(Almost) Nothing Is Sacred

In advance of Tinseltown’s parade of Christmas insensitivities — they’ve already unloaded the marijuana movie “A Very Harold and Kumar 3-D Christmas” — let us stipulate that it’s not just seasonal. The manufacturers of pop culture thrive on offending every traditional value. Start with Pamela Anderson, the ridiculously surgically enhanced former Playboy Playmate, home-movie porn […]

Yet More “progressive” Insanity

A quick review of the headlines for November 16, 2011 reveals that there’s yet more “progressive” insanity afoot. DEBT JUMPS TO $15 TRILLION… As other cities crack down, DC Council backs ‘Occupiers’… Occupy protesters plan to ‘shut down’ Wall Street on Thursday… ‘You’re going to see what a Molotov cocktail can do to MACY’S’… Protester […]

Diane Sawyer Again Links Tea Party and Sarah Palin to Rep. Giffords’ Shooting

In her exclusive interview with Representative Gabrielle Giffords (D, AZ), ABCs Diane Sawyer began with a retrospective of the terrible crime committed against the Congresswoman by a mentally disturbed, a-political gunman. But true to her left-wing agenda, Sawyer could not resist illicitly linking Tea Party activists, anti-Obamacare sentiment, and even Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to […]

Grammy Nominee’s Occupy Wall Street Theme Song Features Bloodlust, Violent Imagery

While denizens of Hollywood are running around praising the Occupy-Whatevers as an articulate, non-violent example of “democracy in action” and adopting the Occupy rhetoric, a new anthem of sorts has been unveiled to inspire these “non-violent” folks to greater activism. But, for a “non-violent” movement, their new theme song (running nearly nine minutes long) is […]

Professors Teaching Your Kids Not To Support The Troops

One of the biggest mistakes we make in this country is allowing communists, terrorists, perverts, race hucksters, and America-loathing left wingers to work as professors. The very idea that we should allow morally bankrupt wackos with an ax to grind to teach impressionable young college students about the world is insane. Yet, professors like Michael […]

Good News! Occupy Santa Cruz Has Ringworm And Scabies

Just like the Tea Party! Via OWS Exposed from Gateway Pundit (Santa Cruz Sentinel) ….Instead, they said the injunction they are seeking through a lawsuit filed last week would give them the authority to remove the campsite at a later date while they work with Occupy representatives to keep San Lorenzo Park free of drugs, […]

Obama Thinks Hawaii Is Part Of Asia

Pick any politician that the mainstream media has portrayed as a blithering idiot who can barely get a sentence out without saying something stupid. Sarah Palin, Dan Quayle, Herman Cain, Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry, George W. Bush — you name ’em. Well, Barack Obama has said as many stupid things as all of them combined, […]

The Top 20 Most Influential Black Republicans

Deciding who’s the “most influential” anything is inherently an arbitrary business. It’s even more difficult in this case, when we’re comparing black politicians, judges, columnists, radio hosts, and activists. Still, somebody had to do it, so… Honorable Mentions: Ali Akbar, Deneen Borelli, Janice Rogers Brown, James Golden, Amy Holmes, Niger Innis, Roy Innis, Alan Keyes, […]

House Looks To Pass Concealed Carry Reciprocity Bill

Now that the GOP controlled House has passed at least 15 economic bills designed to stimulate jobs, which are languishing in the Democrat controlled Senate, they are free to pass other legislation. This one should be rather interesting (Politico) If congressional gun-rights stalwarts get their way, a firearms owner with a concealed-weapons permit issued in […]

Botox-laden swamp-drainer made $100K in two days by savvy investing and blocking legislation, but mostly blocking legislation

Retail investors would love to learn former Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s investing secrets, which magically increased her net worth 62% during the worst of the financial crisis (spiking her portfolio’s value from $22 million to $35.2 million in a year’s time). CBS News explains how the Botox-laden, swamp-draining, small business-stiffing Pelosi made her millions: The former […]

Is Newt Electable? Hell Yes!

As the debates accumulate, it becomes more and more evident that Newt Gingrich’s intellect, experience, articulateness and depth of knowledge elevate him to the top of the field. Anyone should be happy to pay admission to watch him duel with Obama in debate. Newt’s not as charismatic as Cain or as smooth as Romney, but […]

Obama’s Half-Billion-Dollar Crony Drug Deal

What do you get when you mix Democratic fat-cat donations, Big Labor favors, pharmaceutical lobbying and Beltway business as usual? Answer: another toxic half-billion-dollar Barack Obama-approved crony deal. Move over, Solyndra. Here comes Siga-Gate. This latest Chicago-style payoff on your dime involves a dubious smallpox drug backed by a liberal billionaire investor, along with a […]

FDA Kills Smokers

“The FDA is responsible for protecting the public health.” That’s what the Food and Drug Administration tells us on its website. My intuition makes me grateful that the FDA is there to protect me — to make sure that every drug is proven both safe and effective — but “protection” kills people. Last week, I […]

Constitutional or Not, Obamacare Has To Go

Is not: doing something the same as doing it, and should government be allowed to force you not to do the thing you’re already not doing by making you do it so you don’t not do it anymore? That is just one of the perplexing legal questions the Supreme Court will likely find a way to […]

NPR Versus ‘Minstrel’ Cain

National Public Radio proved a long time ago it disdains black conservatives. Remember when NPR’s Nina Totenberg launched the unproven sexual harassment charges against Clarence Thomas? NPR doesn’t even like black liberals who appear on Fox News: They canned Juan Williams. The sexual harassment charges against Herman Cain aren’t ruining him as quickly as the […]

It’s the Foreign Policy, Stupid

“It’s the economy, stupid,” some dude named Carville once said. He was referring to what was the correct prescription for winning a presidential election — and it’s been gospel ever since. He’s probably right. Except when it comes to actually being president, it’s something else altogether. “It’s the foreign policy, stupid” — because day one […]

An Important New Book

A just released book, “Bowing to Beijing” by Brett M. Decker and William C. Triplett II, will change forever the way you think about China — even if, like me, you already have the deepest worries about the Chinese threat. As I opened the book, I was expecting to find many useful examples of Chinese […]

Slipping Beauty

I’m in a great relationship of seven months. My boyfriend and I never get sick of each other. We respect each other and are there for each other, and we talk very openly, even when we’re upset. His ex-girlfriend is part of our group of friends. She is thin and very pretty. I know I’m […]
