As I was watching Intervention this week-end, Jeff VanVonderen popped off an absolutely brilliant explanation of why a lot of addicts don’t get better: Everyone around wants to help, but instead, ends up enabling their bad behavior: What I am telling you today is that your health is the most important thing. You have to […]

Will Liberal Democrats Help Impeach Obama? Obama Agreed to Strike:  Based on Arab League “Support” Arab League Now Denounces Loss of Civilian Life in Military Attack Is Obama’s trip to Brazil connected to the Libya attack?

Just a few stories that caught my eye this week, whether I blogged about them or not. Click the link underneath each if you need a little more explanation. Link: Pundette. Link: Smitty. Link: TrogloPundit. Link: Althouse. And that’s not even counting my picks for the final. Link: The Jawa Report. And, because I think […]

Yet another warmist meme bites the dust Standing as the highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro is slowly regaining its snow after several years of drought in East Africa and the effects of climate change in African continent. Sigh. They should have stopped after “drought.” And let’s not forget that the major cause of the […]

I will hand it to Team Obama, they have put together a very good weekly address, with lots of facts and figures to push the meme that Obama isn’t abandoning/ignoring his duties while he travels abroad, destroying Gaia through globull warming with his fossil fueled flights and massive motorcade. Anyhow The President Announces Economic Lessons […]

To the long list of reasons to put an immediate end to windmill boondoggles we can add that the hideous, noisy, expensive, and inefficient monstrosities kill whales: According to researchers at the University of St Andrews, the sound of offshore wind farms is likely to mess with the whales’ sensitive sonar systems and drive them […]

Even a writer for Huffington Post has started to wake up and smell the rancid roadkill that is the liberal establishment media. Its astonishingly hypocritical and irresponsible refusal to report death threats by pro-union leftists in Wisconsin may have been the outrage that shook the scales from Lee Stranahan‘s eyes: Try to set aside whatever […]

Unfortunately, for The Politico and Obama, the attempt by Josh Gerstein to defend The Reluctant President’s South American trip falls flat, as he spends quite a bit of time at the beginning explaining why he should not go, which is what people will remember Some 26 months into Barack Obama’s presidency, Latin America’s moment has […]

Early in 2010 two former leaders of the Michigan Democrat Party came up with a brilliant idea, one that has just gotten them charged with election fraud. Back in May of 2010, it was discovered that a new party was circulating petitions to get itself official recognized by the state as an official political party. […]

Politico has a sad tale to tell about former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (I just love that: former. Say it with me, FORMER House Speaker). The once powerful California Representative held a big one-year celebration of Obamacare to show off her keystone legislative victory and like the kid nobody likes, her invites to the party […]

Union Thugs Attack Petition Worker, Destroys Petitions From Joe Schoffstall we find yet another example of the way unions and Democrats use thug tactics to force their way on those around them, yet one more example of how Democrats and union thugs don’t care about democracy or the American system when it comes to their […]

So, the United Nations has authorized its members to take “all necessary measures” to protect civilians and civilian centers.. Oh, joy! Now we can put American troops at risk in Libya for….wait, why exactly are we sending American soldiers to Libya? Is it in our our interest to send our soldiers to Libya? Nobody thought […]

Liberalism in 120 Seconds: As A Conservative, Let Me Apologize For The Bush Years

Following up on the post from earlier today The United Nations Security Council approved a measure on Thursday authorizing “all necessary measures” to protect Libyan civilians from harm at the hands of forces loyal to Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi. The measure allows not only a no-fly zone but effectively any measures short of a ground invasion […]

It has been revealed that Illinois State Representative Robert Rita was a convicted felon before he ever ran for office for the fist time, a violation of state law. Being a convicted felon should have barred him from even running for office. Lee Williams of the Illinois Policy Institute tells us that Rita, a Blue […]

The Los Angeles Times has a disheartening report about the graft, corruption, and nest-feathering infesting the administration of California’s government employees pension fund, CalPers (California Public Employees’ Retirement System). It reports that subordinates were pressured into investing in to firms run by political buddies and that one of the former CalPERS administrators was “lucky” enough […]

If there is one area where admitted socialist Lawrence O’Donnell would have any clue what he’s barking about, it would be ignorance. Yet even on this topic, Keith Olbermann’s stand-in proves to be a fatuous know-nothing. Liberals fear the fiery countermoonbat Michele Bachmann, so O’Donnell et al. are waging a propaganda war to destroy her […]

There is no part of your life statist liberals will not intrude upon and diminish — not even your washing machine: In 1996, top-loaders were pretty much the only type of washer around, and they were uniformly high quality. When Consumer Reports tested 18 models, 13 were “excellent” and five were “very good.” By 2007, […]

Apparently, the NY Times editorial board, an anonymous group of people who represent the feeling and thoughts, well, being the NY Times, simply the feelings, of the paper, bring you your Thursday humor in an editorial entitled Talking About Guns. After discussing the number of supposed gun deaths since Gabby Giffords was shot (2,400, and […]

Should high school kids be walking around with their underwear showing and their pants sagging? No, of course not. It makes them look like trash or idiots, or more accurately, idiotic trash. That being said, why is that the government’s business? Seems the best way to sell legislation these days is that it’ll be good […]

The idea that people who’ve broken our laws by entering our country illegally should be able to sue our government for things that happened while they were engaged in criminal activity is obnoxious. No American tax dollars should go to illegal immigrants, ever… The family of a Mexican who man who died after an immigration […]

While Wisconsin remains the face of the war over teacher’s unions, a number of other states are moving to reign in out-of-control unions or reform education policies. Tennessee is among them. Not only is collective bargaining in question, but Governor Bill Haslam has a proposal to make it tougher for teacher’s to get tenure. The […]
