Imagine if you are a high dollar donor to California Democrats. Imagine you just found out that all the cash you donated was stolen by one of the state party’s top operatives. Well, if you really are a donor, you don’t have to imagine. It is real. This week Kinde Durkee, a longtime California Democrat […]
Gov. Perry has been taking heat for the controversial executive order he issued four years ago that mandated that all 11- and 12-year-old girls be vaccinated for human papillomavirus, or HPV, a sexually transmitted virus that can cause cervical cancer. The legislature made it non mandatory, and Perry has now admitted that he would handle […]
Did I mention that he’s won a Nobel Prize for physics? The global warming theory left him out in the cold. Dr. Ivar Giaever, a former professor with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the 1973 winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, abruptly announced his resignation Tuesday, Sept. 13, from the premier physics society in disgust […]
That was Wednesday, a tweet from Obama’s official 2012 campaign Twitter account. But, remember, his jobs bill isn’t about him getting re-elected. But, if you love him, you’ll help him pass the bill. Which is kinda weird on its own Not for the first time, Obama called back to an audience member who shouted “I […]
Securing the border? That’s for racists! After all, there’s no reason anybody would want to keep this kind of psychotic violence outside of our country. Social media users who denounce drug cartel activities along the Mexican border received a brutal warning this week: Two mangled bodies hanging like cuts of meat from a pedestrian bridge. […]
That’s the title of a long, punishingly dull article at the New York Times about wacky Headmaster Dominic Randolph. Randolph doesn’t seem to understand the most basic role of a headmaster, which is to educate children. If your kid has a higher IQ than normal, the last place you should want him would be in […]
If all publicity is good publicity, then the tsunami of mockery that has engulfed Obama’s creepy AttackWatch website is awash in good publicity. The whole idea behind the website is to report anything mean you hear about Obama so his website can churn out propaganda in response to it. The page simultaneously gives off a […]
Texas Representative Louie Gohmert is a genius. He’s absconded with the name of Obama’s jobs bill — the American Jobs Act of 2011 –and used it for his own tax-cutting bill. Is it a Republican dirty trick? How can Gohmert do this? Because Obama is either incompetent or cynical. Here is the thing, either Obama […]
Some extremists are targeting my favorite Arizona legislator, Senate President Russell Pearce, because he sponsored Arizona’s illegal immigration bill SB 1070. Deep pockets on the left are funding a recall effort against him. A more liberal candidate, Jerry Lewis, has been found to run against Pearce in the recall election.: A third candidate, Olivia Cortes, […]
If Obamunism doesn’t terrify you yet, maybe this will do the trick: Obama campaigned on the promise that he would “fundamentally transform” America to make it less like itself and more like the rest of the world. Most of the rest of the world is run by statist thugs who use fear to subjugate the […]
Although progressives like Willard “Mittens” Romney attack Rick Perry for referring to Social Security as a Ponzi scheme (as many have done before), the question isn’t whether this sacred pillar of statism is an unsustainable swindle, but rather how long it will be before its inevitable collapse. The answer — not long at all: There […]
Where to start today? So many things. Well, as a Republican, one can’t help but be giddy over a Republican winning Anthony Weiner’s old seat in NY-9. A staunchly Democrat area, heavily populated by Orthodox Jews, sent a Republican Catholic to represent them in what is considered to be a referendum of Obama’s handling of […]
We have come to learn something about our president. He really loves green. But what we can’t quite decipher is if that green is green jobs and energies or just the good old fashioned green of tax money. Whatever the case, it sure is true that the green of U.S. tax dollars is far more […]
It looks like Hollywood has not learned the lesson that a graphic rape of a teen girl is not the best recipe for box office sales as this year, yet another rape fantasy film has emerged from the muck and mire of Hollywood in the hopes to assault audiences everywhere. You may remember back in […]
Union-lovers and Democrats point to Tea Party enthusiasts routinely calling them “racists” and “violent.” Yet, since the Tea Party movement began, no racial epithets nor violence has been reported or proven. On the other hand, month in and month out we have seen one example of union members engaging in both racism and violence. This […]
Some are wondering whether the Solyndra scandal will bring the White House down. I have to say, unless some emails are found that specifically show that Obama knew that there was no possible way that Solyndra would ever be able to compete, and still pushed the loan, the best that will happen will be a […]
Politically motivated prosecutions are always an ugly business because politics is not supposed to stretch into the courtroom. Sadly, that appears to be news to the very liberal State Bar of Arizona. On Monday, the State Bar of Arizona began its prosecution of former Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas and two of his deputies, including […]
The headline, I stole from Drudge. The results? They were sweet indeed for a special election. Democrats suffered a significant setback early Wednesday with the party losing a New York district it had held for almost a century — in an upset result seen as a rebuke of President Barack Obama’s policies ahead of the […]
There is no love today in Liberal Land, starting with The Politico The Democratic Party’s rare loss of a congressional seat in its urban heartland Tuesday, accompanied by a blowout defeat in a Nevada special election, marked the latest in a string of demoralizing setbacks that threatened to deepen the party’s crisis of confidence and […]
So, I caught a brief snippet of a report on poverty from CNN. A woman was interviewed who hadn’t had a job since 2004 and she was talking about the importance of the Social Safety Net. The woman said the government did get her job opportunities, but they were only minimum wage jobs and those […]
The European Union is about to shake itself apart, Greece is on its knees, and there are Western European nations sure to follow. So what’s the Democrats’ reaction? Hey, let’s be more like those guys. Let’s spend more like they do, let’s copy their health care systems, let’s make our government bigger, like their government. […]
The GOP is, for the moment, still a two person battle between Rick Perry and Mitt Romney and barring a Palin entry into the race, for someone else to move up, either Perry or Romney will probably have to collapse. Yet, almost EVERYONE seems to be piling on Perry and ignoring Romney. Why? Simple. All […]
Last night, CNN said Rick Perry wasn’t telling the truth about the Stimulus. CNN claimed the CBO said the stimulus created or saved about 1-3 million jobs, when Perry said it was zero. However, what CNN failed to mention is that the CBO assumed a positive multiplier. If you’re unsure what I mean, I made […]
From the UK comes another good reason to let the US Postal Service finally die already: Postal workers refused to deliver CDs of Bible readings after deciding they were ‘offensive material’. Several churches had paid for discs with recordings of St Mark’s Gospel to be produced to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the King James […]
How’s that Hope & Change working out for you? Unless you’re a well-connected crony capitalist or a power-drunk government bureaucrat, probably not too well: Amid a still struggling economy, more people in America fell below the poverty line last year, according to new census data released Tuesday. The nation’s poverty rate rose to 15.1% in […]
True to form, even as he says he wants to cut regulations, Obama’s regulatory army is marching hard against business and this week the president’s Labor Dept. has unleashed yet another salvo in order to hurt the business sector. Before I start this explanation of yet another Obama powergrab through his powers to regulate, may […]
There is a new smart phone ap out there that is a pretty good idea. It’s called “CLOO’.” Unfortunately, no matter how good it is there is an absolute certainty that the government — whether local, state, or federal, or even all of them — will destroy this great idea with regulatory red tape. The […]
Hey, remember back in 2009 when Obama signaled he was willing to talk with the Taliban? And how back in March he was thinking about how to talk with the Taliban (and Hezbollah)? And in May, we learned he was actually holding peace talks with the Taliban? Yeah, how’s that working? Suicide bomb and gun […]
From NRO: When President Obama outlined his $450 billion jobs plan in a speech before Congress last week, he promised it would all be “paid for,” and assured us he would present another plan outlining how he planned to do so. Well, here you have it: The White House said Monday that President Obama wants […]
What do municipal bonds have to do with Obama’s American Jobs Act? Well, according to Barron’s Municipal bonds have always been synonymous with tax-free income. That would end if President Obama gets his way. Under the jobs bill the President sent to Congress Monday, high-income individuals and families would no longer receive interest from state […]
