Just when you thought the dhimmitude couldn’t get more ridiculous….. Dozens of federal agents appeared at the early morning prayer Saturday to arrest Hafiz Muhammad Sher Ali Khan, the frail 76-year-old imam, and two of his sons – including one who led the Masjid Jamaat Al-Mumineen Mosque in Margate – on charges of funneling money […]
I’d dearly like to blame this mess mostly or solely on Democrats, alas, President Bush signed the legislation which was sponsored by Fred Upton (R-Mi), who now sits as chairman of House Energy and Commerce committee. But, it is supposedly for Gaia’s sake, or, more aptly, because the Federal congress has dearly lost their way, […]
That great lefty favorite, the Peace Corps, just had a 50th birthday! You can tell, because it’s demanding presents. The Lefties who totally love conscience-salving stints in third world countries rejoiced and then swiftly returned to their soy lattes and organic arugula. Senator Harry Reid issued a: breathless, sycophantic statement in which he, being Harry Reid, […]
There isn’t much the farthest fringes of the Democrat Party can agree on with normal Americans, but at least we all salute the intelligence community for tracking down Obama bin I mean Osama bin Laden, right? Wrong: After more than a week of deliberation, the House overwhelmingly approved a measure honoring the intelligence community for […]
Anyone who would snuggle on a couch with Nancy Pelosi to promote the global warming hoax is either a moron or an authoritarian statist. Newt Gingrich confirms that he is the latter: Newt Gingrich’s appearance on “Meet the Press” [yesterday] could leave some wondering which party’s nomination he is running for. The former speaker had […]
It is déjà vu this year with gasoline prices, which are currently hovering around a high of $4 a gallon. Every couple of years or so the price of gasoline hikes up and politicians with elections looming scramble to explain why, proposing how to bring them back down. High gasoline prices are a problematic issue […]
Indiana’s highest court has turned against our rights and the Constitution of the United States. The Supreme Court of Indiana has just decided that the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution does not apply to the citizens of Indiana. The court has decided that Hoosiers have no right to be safe in their own homes […]
Representatives Dennis Kucinich (D, Ohio), Barbara Lee (D, Calif.), Pete Stark (D, Calif.) and Lynn Woolsey (D, Calif.) Democrats all, do not seem to like our intel folks, especially those brave men that helped take out Osama bin Ladden — at President Obama’s orders, I’ll remind you. Late last week the House of Representatives overwhelmingly […]
Because actually going out and living a “carbon neutral” lifestyle, giving up the trappings of a modern society, riding a bike 15 miles to work, giving up meat, refusing to use your ice maker, turning the thermostat up to 85 in the summer and down to 55 in the winter, buying solar panels for one’s […]
At least for the moment, the rats have decided not to board the Hopey Ship Unicorn: President Obama short on campaign surrogates Candidate Barack Obama had no better buddy on the 2008 primary trail than Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill, who was feared – and a little hated – by Hillary Clinton’s campaign for being Obama’s […]
Over at the LA Times, Andrew Malcolm asks, “Why do one-in-five American voters now believe Osama bin Laden is still alive?“ This incredulity phenomenon is a curious creation of a high-speed global media so full of unverified and unverifiable information floating about, combined with a modern cynicism about political leaders masquerading as voter wisdom. After […]
It almost seems unfair to lay a kick into the side of the global warming alarmists when they’re down, but this column from David Evans, formerly of the Australian Greenhouse Office, is full of way too much sweet, juicy truth to ignore. I am a scientist who was on the carbon gravy train, understands the […]
The Constitution forbids us from engaging in “cruel and unusual punishment;” so we certainly aren’t allowed to follow Iran’s lead here. However, don’t look for any high-minded rants from me about how “uncivilized” Iran is supposedly being here. The procedure was planned for Tehran at midday on Saturday in the presence of Ameneh Bahrami, the […]
I just finished up Diary of a Hedge Fund Manager: From the Top, to the Bottom, and Back Again. It was an outstanding book, not only because it taught me a lot about how hedge funds work, but because it was well written and very motivational. Unfortunately, the hedge fund business pays a higher multiple […]
Just thought you’d like to know: Social Security will run a permanent yearly deficit when looking at the program’s tax revenues compared to what it must pay out in benefits, the program’s trustees said Friday… But never fear! The trustees stressed that exhaustion of the trust funds doesn’t mean the programs will stop paying all […]
I caught Tammy Bruce’s tweet the other day, which led me to a Politico article. Well, Bill Clinton thinks the United Nations or the United States should create an agency to tell us the truth. No, I’m not kidding.
Ron Paul’s acolytes like to claim that “Doctor” Paul is the only candidate that is serious on fiscal matters, the only candidate that is fiscally conservative, the only one that talks the talk and walks the walk. Too bad this is all BS… and here is yet another example of this fact. T. Boone Pickens […]
PCism is for idiots. It really is just that simple. It’s bad enough when you find it in the private sector with silliness such as sensitivity training. But at least there, adults can just ignore the stupidity and carry on. When it comes to PC indoctrination of our impressionable kids, well that is another matter […]
Just a few stories from the past week, some of which I blogged about, and some of which I didn’t. Click the link under each picture if you’re not sure what the hell I’m talking about.

The Politico explores how Team Obama is grasping for any sort of positive news to campaign on for 2012. OK, they don’t say “grasping,” but, when even The Politico can’t cheer-lead, it might not be the best campaign idea President Barack Obama and his allies in two big industrial unions appear poised to make the […]
So, I had taken my dog outside and he’s EXCITED. I mean, excited even for him — and this is a dog who gets so happy he almost passes out when he sees me in the morning or gets to go for a walk. I figured he caught wind of a cat. Close, but not […]
Democrats believe that you are legally permitted to break into an empty home if you need a place to stay. Democrats believe that stealing furniture from someone’s home — if it’s in the best interest of your family — is a legally acceptable practice. Democrats believe that you are within your rights to crash a […]
Amy Myers is a tenth grader in Cherry Hill, NJ. She labels herself as “a typical high school student.” (More on that later.) Michele Bachmann is the distinguished Congresswoman from the 6th district of Minnesota. She is a founding member of the House Tea Party Caucus and is being strongly urged to consider a run […]
It’s likely to be an interesting election year. I daresay, we’ve never had anyone in the White House as charismatic as Barack Obama. We’ve never had an incumbent with a base so intensely dedicated. We’ve never had a base display such an intensity of dedication without being able to explain why. On the other hand, […]
In a story by Jay Root for the Associated Press, the news wire service tries to tar the entire Tea Party movement with guilt by association claiming that it was somehow fathered or “grandfathered” by Texas Representative Ron Paul, the cranky uncle of the GOP. The fact is Ron Paul had nothing at all to […]
Just one more nail in the coffin for the Warmist Moonbats U.S. meteorologists say the deadly storms tearing up the South are not a result of climate change. None the less, the extreme weather has rekindled the global warming debate in Washington, D.C. But a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 51% of […]
Anyone else think he is looking at all sorts of polling data, reading editorials and articles that say the 2012 election will be all about the economy (and Obama’s complete incompetence), and saying “gee, I have to make a token effort which will do little to nothing, but can thump my own chest over on […]
Cross-posted at UNCOVERAGE.net What’s that? The prosecutor, defense attorney and the news media in San Francisco aren’t calling this a “lone wolf jihad” attack by a Muslim?: Have they even called him a “Muslim” yet? : Why are we not surprised?
Cross-posted at UNCOVERAGE.net Geronimo and his relatives are pissed, the Navy SEALS are pissed, so why don’t we just rename the OBL kill-mission, “Operation POTUS Piehole?”
Four Afghan women have achieved something that would have been unimaginable a decade ago: they are training alongside male recruits to become pilots in the Afghan Air Force. Amidst headlines about poverty, illiteracy, and breathtaking levels of violence against women, their accomplishments are beyond heartening. Second Lt. Sourya Saleh hopes to serve as a role […]
