Gadhafi is a monster who richly deserves to be overthrown by the people of Libya. But, what comes after Gadhafi? That’s unknown. It could be anything from a democracy, to a theocracy, to another dictatorship, to a civil war. There’s a huge leadership void in that country and it’s hard to know who or what […]
Many people have wondered why liberals get furious at conservatives for believing marriage should be between a man and a woman, when they don’t get angry at Barack Obama, who claims to believe the same thing. There’s a simple reason for that: Liberals believe he’s lying. Incidentally, they’re right. The Obama administration announced Wednesday that […]
Liberals are so very excited about a prank phone call to Scott Walker. A liberal blogger pretended to be one of the Koch Brothers and actually managed to get on the phone with Scott Walker. In all fairness, that is kind of funny. Of course, you’re hearing that from a guy who gets off on […]
Tabitha Hale is a friend of mine. Has been for a long time. She’s also not very tall or threatening as you can see from this picture from CPAC, She’s what, maybe 5’1? Pretty scary, huh? Well, today, on the heels of Congressman Michael Capuano of Massachusetts telling unions, “Every once and awhile you need […]
What has become of the ousted strongmen of Egypt and Tunisia, Hosni Mubarak and: Zine El-Abidine : Ben Ali of Tunisia? There is plenty of speculation in the Middle Eastern media, both pro-Israeli and pro-Islamic.
You’ve long suspected it, but now we know it’s true: objectively speaking, conservative political candidates are indeed better looking: Rightwing candidates are better looking than their leftwing counterparts, something they benefit from during elections, according to a study conducted by Swedish and Finnish economists. The economists who conducted the study figured this out by asking […]
-By Warner Todd Huston So, not only has Obama turned a deaf ear to the dozens getting killed in Libya by their own mad dictator, but when the White House Twitter feed finally did decide to discuss the country it spelled the name of the place incorrectly. Seriously, White House? “Lybia”? Sounds like something that […]
You might recall that with great fanfare and the slobberingly positive coverage by the Old Media, President Obama made Reagan-like and claimed that he thought it was time to get rid of the regulations strangling American business. Since that time he’s met with businesses and pretended to suddenly be a pro-business, pro-economic growth president. His […]
With Democrat state legislators in Wisconsin and now Indiana fleeing their states so that they don’t have to do their job — just call them fleebaggers — it would be easy to assume that Democrats are cowards. If not cowards, then petulant children throwing temper tantrums because voters did not give them a power-lock majority. […]
The savagery of the darkest part of the world has once again cast its shadow over innocent Americans: A pirate fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a U.S. Navy destroyer shadowing a hijacked yacht with four Americans aboard Tuesday. Then gunfire erupted, the military said. U.S. special forces rushed to the yacht only to find the […]
Envirofascists will do anything to save the owls. Not only will they destroy tens of thousands of jobs, they’ll even kill owls: First they came for the loggers, destroying 30,000 jobs and countless lives. Now they’re coming for the Barred Owl. Anyone remember the Great Spotted Owl Controversy? Back in the late 80s and early […]
“He’s a thug, plain and simple,” says Pundette, after Massachusetts Democrat Rep. Mike Capuano demonstrated the liberal “New Tone” at a union rally in Boston: “I’m proud to be here with people who understand that it’s more than just sending an email to get you going. Every once and awhile you need to get out […]
In the real world, mom and dad (or kindergarten teacher) would put the Dems into timeout, asked them if they had been eating Playdo. Right now, the Wisconsin assembly is going strong into their second day of debate and votes, along with a filibuster and enormous amounts of amendments from Democrats, and, we have Capitol […]
Semantics, pure semantics A third federal judge upheld the constitutionality of the Obama health care law on Tuesday, reinforcing the divide in the lower courts as the case moves toward its first hearings on the appellate level. Judge Gladys Kessler of Federal District Court for the District of Columbia became the third appointee of President […]
You’ve probably heard people say that politics is “showbiz for ugly people.” That’s true in more ways than one. Most (but, not all) of the politicians in D.C. are playing a role. There’s their public image and then there’s the person playing the character. The two may not have much in common. See Mark Sanford, […]
Mitch Daniels: He’s a fiscal conservative from an important state, Indiana, but his “truce on social issues” comments were world class dumb. Not only did he give social conservatives a reason to deeply distrust him, he insured that he’s going to be constantly asked about social issues at every opportunity, which is a topic he […]
A couple of days ago, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who could fairly be described as a feminist. Not a conservative feminist — a feminist in the traditional sense of the word. I remarked to her that over the last few decades, women’s ideals, in everything from dating, to careers, […]
Senator John Thune isn’t going to run for president. Good decision, good riddance, and thanks for not wasting any of our precious time, cyberspace or money. Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s potential is now officially revving engines.
Liberalism In 120 Seconds: Government Workers Shouldn’t Be Allowed To Unionize
CHURCHVLLE, VA–A new study from the University of Illinois estimates that the world has more than 702 million hectares of marginal land suitable for growing biofuels. The researchers assessed land around the world based on its soil quality, slope, and regional climate. They added degraded or low-quality cropland but ruled out any good cropland, pasture, […]
I propose a TOAST to GOP Wisconsin: Badgers: (with balls!) Can the HOUSE GOP in Washington, WATCH and GROW SOME??
You pile up enough bodies in Somalia and things like this will stop happening, The bodies of the four Americans are on board the carrier Enterprise off the Horn of Africa, according to Central Command. The names of the Southern California couple are Scott and Jean Adam, boaters who were based out of Marina Del […]
MSNBC crows with joy that politically correct corporations have been forcing their employees to finance bizarre sexual mutilation procedures by covering them under insurance policies as if they were medically necessary. With little fanfare, more and more large corporations, including Coca-Cola, Campbell Soup and Walt Disney, have expanded their insurance coverage to meet the needs […]
Eventually we will have to stop laughing at the United Nations and take this absurd, contemptible, but menacing organization seriously as the greatest threat to global freedom since the demise of the Soviet Union. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is calling for Obama-style wealth redistribution on a global scale: The United Nations, which marked a “World Day […]
Have you ever used a computer program that was crap? Maybe it was buggy, didn’t work well with your computer, or wasn’t user friendly. What happens in that situation? Well, you might give up on it right away, you might reinstall it, or you might do research to try to find other people with the […]
The unions might be the ones with the people in the streets of Wisconsin, but the GOP and Scott Walker are winning big politically. Consider… * The Democratic legislators who’ve fled the state and are refusing to do their jobs look awful. * The teachers who are closing down their schools look even worse. Certainly, […]
The union goons and lazy teachers have been getting all the attention in Wisconsin, but the Tea Partiers have started protesting there, too. Joseph Storkson is out there taking pictures and here are a few of the Tea Partier snaps he took, Head to his Joseph Storkman’s Facebook page and see the rest.
Why do these teachers hate Wisconsin’s kids? A reader named Tom from Des Moines, Iowa, emailed me and asked some pertinent questions of these recalcitrant teachers. I have asked some of these questions here myself and I have heard a few of them floated on Twitter, Facebook and the radio, but it is good to […]
One of the most tragic things about modern politics is that it’s practically impossible for the average American to understand what’s going on without an interpreter. By that, I mean that the “Saving Kittens, Baby Pandas, and Puppies Act of 2011” may actually be a bill that gives $10,000 tax credits to lawyers who defend […]
This article is from back on the 17th, but Treehugger links it up today, with a survey, which we’ll get to in a few. Marc Gunther at Greenbiz asks Would You Buy a $40 Light Bulb? Maybe you should. This week, Philips Lighting said that its AmbientLED 12.5-watt bulb – which, just to confuse you, […]
