Stand Up, Speak Out, Fight Back!

It’s kinda funny, since Democrats see no religious issues involved with abortion on demand, but, reducing government spending? WWJD? In what seemed more like a Sunday church service than a Capitol Hill press conference, Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., called out for his fellow lawmakers and all Americans to do “the Lord’s work” as a solution […]
That, and other small ball measures, as the LA Times points out. Just the kinds of ideas one would expect from a (not my) president with virtually no experience in the private sector As White House aides search for ways to show progress on the economy, they are banking that a set of small-scale proposals […]
Question: Why are prostitutes in Alberta earning: $15,000/week?
Reluctant testimony it seems, but testimony nonetheless. At Walmart, we found a surprisingly large lawn & garden section, including a grill selection rivaling that at Home Depot and Lowe’s.: I was previously unaware Walmart dabbled in pavers and masonry block, but apparently, they do.: When people say that you can literally get anything at Walmart, […]
Greg Sargent thinks we should look at what David Plouff really said about unemployment. Indeed, we should. Just two days ago, I took HuffPo’s Michael McAuliff to task for misrepresenting something Sen. Jeff Sessions said. So for me to misrepresent something somebody said myself…well, I’m sure it wouldn’t be the first time. But this once, […]
Okay, maybe he does recognize the irony. I’m only reading what he wrote, after all. I can’t tell how he was reacting while writing it. Maybe he was laughing out loud. Or smirking, at least. Or turned to a co-worker once he was done and remarked “you won’t believe what I just wrote.” But there’s […]
That’s if Obama is smart. Not as smart as David Plouffe, obviously, because, come on. Who’s as smart as David Plouffe? Nobody. That’s who. Promote this guy. Fast. Top Obama adviser says unemployment won’t be key in 2012 Genius. Cross-posted at The TrogloPundit. UPDATE — somebody make Joe shut up!

In his seminal and ultimately destructive majority opinion in the case of Dred Scott v. Sandford, Chief Justice Roger Taney claimed that the United States Constitution denied a former slave citizenship, and thus standing in federal court. He also construed the Constitution to deny Congress power to regulate the territories with respect to slavery: “The […]
Politicians today are getting away with higher levels of disgraceful behavior. Even just a few years ago it was a shock when a high-level political official did something immoral or promoted inappropriate values. When former Surgeon General Jocelyn Elders said in 1994 that masturbation should be promoted to deter young people from engaging in risky […]
The relatively trivial Watergate scandal brought down a presidency not because Richard Nixon had any involvement in it, but because he unwisely tried to cover it up. We may never know for sure that Barack Hussein Obama knew all along that his administration was helping Mexican drug lords smuggle American guns, but he sure hasn’t […]
Well, maybe John Sexton and I both gave Obama a little too much credit on this “intercontinental railroad” gaffe? When he and I wrote about this little gaffe we both assumed that it was no big deal, that it was juts a slip of the tongue — and an easy one to make at that […]
Next after a constitutional right to kill inconvenient children comes a constitutional right to force someone else to pay for it. When North Carolina drew up a budget that throws the highly profitable Mickey D’s of abortion off the taxpayer-funded gravy train, Planned Parenthood screamed, “We’ll sue!” One of North Carolina’s two Planned Parenthood affiliates […]
Information is intell and intell is power. Thus – unlimited info = unlimited power! Oh, you know this is so. The very same cat that enabled two of Great Satan’s hyperpuissant fans to unleash “Shi Lang” upon a world worried about Collectivist China’s not so Peaceful Looking Rise – returns to continue to put steel […]
Obviously, any attempts to reduce voting fraud would handicap Democrats Democrats and Republicans are clashing in state capitals across the country as GOP-controlled legislatures push proposals to tighten voting requirements — a move prominent critics have decried as a throwback to Jim Crow laws. The proposals include measures in nearly three-dozen states to either require […]
So, a bit of background The Family Leader, a prominent Iowa group that promotes Christian conservative social values, said Thursday it is asking all presidential candidates to sign a pledge regarding their personal convictions on traditional marriage. The pledge is entitled, “The Marriage Vow — A Declaration of Dependence upon Marriage and Family.” The organization’s […]
Headline: Exclusive: Treasury secretly weighs options to avert default I think somebody at Treasury ought to look up the word “secretly.”
…I feel compelled to notice this story: In the spring of 1961, President Obama’s father revealed a plan for his unborn son that might have changed the course of American political history. The elder Barack H. Obama… declared that they intended to put their child up for adoption. Questions: So? Why’s this story coming up […]
In the 1987 movie “No Way Out,” Gene Hackman plays the Secretary of Defense, feuding with a Senator whose pet project is to build a submarine “as big as a city.” One adulterous affair and probable manslaughter investigation later, the Senator catches Hackman at a vulnerable (and potentially explosive) moment. To the rescue leaps Hackman’s […]
Mexico’s government may be corrupt and ineffective at controlling drug violence, but unlike ours it looks out for the best interests of its people. For example, it helps its illegal colonists to take advantage of free healthcare on our side of the border: Mexico’s government operates programs in about a dozen American cities that refers […]
Gun-grabbing isn’t the only item on the United Nations’ agenda that targets American liberties. One of the reasons they need us disarmed is to impose schemes like Agenda 21: Agenda 21 is a UN initiative that 178 governments at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) adopted in 1992 under the auspices of […]
The Old Media is still acting shocked, SHOCKED I tell you, that the Obama administration treats them like a redheaded stepchild. Newsweek’s The Daily Beast, for instance, is incredulous at the “reprehensible” actions of the Obama White House for having the temerity to call NBC to scold the cabler over Mark Halperin’s “dick” comment. You’ll […]
The New Republic freaks out over Constitutional Conservatism and Michele Bachmann Michele Bachmann really wants you to know she’s a “constitutional conservative.” The term is featured prominently on her web ads. She mentioned it three times in her announcement speech. It’s in the first sentence of her official bio. But what exactly does it mean? […]
But it’s not quite as bad as it sounds: Paramount Pictures and Marvel Studios gave distributors around the world the option of shortening the title of “Captain America: The First Avenger” to simply “The First Avenger,” out of concern about anti-American sentiment. But the only countries that took them up on it were Russia, Ukraine […]
Looks like the GOP is going to attempt to make it so that those evil incandescent light bulbs won’t be banned starting in 2012 House Republicans plan to bring to the floor next week legislation that would water down a provision in a 2007 energy law that requires light bulbs to be more energy efficient. […]
And look, I’m not some guy who just shuffles from job to sitcoms to bed to job every day. I’m constantly checking up on internet news sites and political blogs. But until yesterday, “Casey Anthony” was just a vaguely familiar name. Oh, sure, I think I knew she was involved in a trial of some […]
Forty years of liberal politics have failed miserably. Liberals and President Barack Obama blame conservatives.
“The subterranean demographic just never watched,” a CNN executive explained. “We needed those viewers. Even a few eyeless fish would have helped.” Full disclosure: I made the preceding quotes up. You may have figured that out. The story: CNN Cancels ‘In the Arena’ With Eliot Spitzer I never watched it, so it’s probably my fault. […]
We all enjoy taking the occasional shot at Matthew Yglesias, but credit where it’s due: at least he’s willing to take the occasional shot at his own side: Even as the Obama administration continues to defend the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act from its critics, the White House appears to have sincerely pivoted away from […]
Cross-posted at UNCOVERAGE.net: Supporters of traditional marriage in the state of Washington are experiencing what Californians against gay marriage suffered in 2008: Lesbian/gay/bi-sexual/transgender/queers posing as “activists” : can threaten to kill you and your family, destroy your property and business, and harass anyone associated with you and get away with it.: In the meantime, the gay […]
It was hailed as a technological first. President Obama was to hold the first “Twitter Townhall.” The truth is more like it was a desperate attempt by the Obama administration to appeal to the youth vote in which nearly every poll shows him losing ground. The idea was that questions could be submitted by any […]
