It must be nice to work for the government. Sadly it’s the most lucrative way to make a living in American history. To “win life’s lottery” all you have to do is get a job with the government — whether the federal or state government — at practically any level and voila, welcome to easy […]
Pro-life activists exposed systemic abuses at Planned Parenthood. The media was outraged. In Planned Parenthood offices all over America, activists pretending to be a pimp and an underage girl taped employees giving them advice on obtaining illegal abortions so they could get back into the sex trade as quickly as possible without running afoul of […]
They really were busy little beavers over the past 24+ hours. They voted to defund Planned Parenthood, Net Neutrality, the Obama Czars, and blocked the EPA from regulating greenhouse gases. And, this Just before 2 a.m. on February 19, the war on climate science showed its grip on the U.S. House of Representatives as it […]
Well, it’s not even close to the hundreds of billions we need to cut from the bloated federal budget, but, it’s a start, and the hardest part of the journey is the first step In a rare early morning weekend vote, the House approved an aggressive plan Saturday to eliminate dozens of federal programs and […]
[Updated to correct information about Wisconsin teacher salaries.] As I understand it, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, faced with a $3.6 billion biennial budget deficit (for the years 2011-2013), had the choice of raising taxes in his financially beleaguered state or firing up to 6,000 state employees. He chose a third route, proposing that Wisconsin’s public […]
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka has decided to flock to the side of thug Wisconsin teachers on Friday. This should not be much of a surprise. Trumka understands that this battle could serve to galvanize anti-union sympathies all across the country, and rightfully so. With the hate and “violent rhetoric” being employed by these thug teachers […]
At CPAC this year, I interviewed two of the candidates for Kay Bailey Hutchison’s soon to be vacated Senate seat in the great state of Texas. And with two such fine candidates as these you really do have to call it the great state of Texas! First up is former Texas Solicitor General Ted Cruz. […]
You would never guess who is behind the communist-style shenanigans in Wisconsin: The Democratic National Committee’s Organizing for America arm — the remnant of the 2008 Obama campaign— is playing an active role in organizing protests against Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s attempt to strip most public employees of collective bargaining rights. OfA, as the campaign […]
Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-TX) may have the IQ of a heifer, but when she opens her mouth, she sounds more like a duck. The other day she explained to the House Judiciary Committee why the penalty imposed under ObamaCare on those who don’t buy health insurance is not a penalty. The law itself states: “If […]
Mr. Herman Cain is ready to be President. I had the pleasure of hearing him speak at CPAC, and I was very impressed. Like Gov. Chris Christie, Mr. Cain is blunt and honest. This is what I think is crucial right now. We need a leader that is willing to tell us the truth, not just […]
How many liberals have clamored for the humanity of the Canadian Health Care system? I think it’s safe to say that at one time, a majority of the have advocated for a single payer system. One of the problems with single payer is the government can decide to stop paying because some “death panel” declared […]
Those evil Girl Scouts are facing dissension in the ranks over the long term plans of Big Girl Scouts to kill all the orangutans and bury the world in globull warming created snow! Are Girl Scout cookies killing orangutans? It’s Girl Scout cookie season, but Michigan scouts Rhiannon Tomtishen and Madison Vorva are finding other […]
In all the years that I have been blogging, this might be the most important post I write. That is how strongly I feel about this. I think all of you who read me know my concern over the plight of the black family. With 70% of black babies born into unwed homes, and with […]
Even The Politico is having a tough time cheerleading for the bat guano super-weasel Harry Reid is pushing The Senate passed an aviation reauthorization bill Thursday night, ending three weeks of work on a relatively standard piece of legislation that Democrats are calling a “downpayment” on their broader jobs agenda. “Today, the Senate passed a […]
There’s a weird strain of thinking on the Right that goes, “The best thing that could ever happen to us would be to lose the next election. It would get people all fired up and then we could REALLY get something done!” Noemie Emery’s latest column is a great example of this type of thinking: […]
Wasn’t it just last month that we had hypersensitive liberals going on and on about civility after Gabrielle Giffords was shot? Well today, the same people who were hyperventilating over phrases like “job killing” are apparently peachy keen with actual threats and intimidation. Why? Because most liberals are actually fine with political violence and threats […]
Right Wing News polled more than 250 right-of-center bloggers on which candidate they’d support if the 2012 Republican primaries were today. The following 63 bloggers responded: 101 Dead Armadillos, Alexa Shrugged, All American Blogger, All That Is Necessary, Argghhhh!, Bad Example, Betsy’s Page, Blackfive, Bookworm Room, Cara Ellison, Cassy Fiano, Conservative Compendium, Considerettes, Danny Carlton, […]
Liberalism In 120 Seconds: Why The Libs “You’re Racist” Attack Doesn’t Work Anymore
Clown Nose On, Clown Nose Off: That’s how Treacher described Jon Stewart’s very selective stance as to whether he was “just a comedian” and it therefore didn’t matter if he was saying nonsense or whether he was a sage outsider commentator on political affairs. The global warmistas have a similar tactic. When asked to explain […]
As everyone knows by now, government workers continually lobby for more tax dollars. This week there are the Unions in Wisconsin, and people pushing for more funding of NPR. I made a video below regarding both examples.
Most of the insidious bureauweenies eating away America from within remain as faceless as they are unaccountable. But a few distinguish themselves for their open belligerence toward our fundamental liberties: Federal Communications Commissioner Michael Copps made a case for a government hand in media policy in a speech to the FCBA [Federal Communications Bar Association] […]
Even as American influence declines due to our awful leadership, and that of communist China and radical Islam rises, Comrade Obama is moving to reduce our benevolent impact still further by pulling the rug out from under Voice of America: The Obama administration will cancel shortwave radio broadcasts by Voice of America into China this […]
Long ago Bill Buckley drummed the anti-Semites out of the conservative movement, and the movement thrived as a result. But the Jew-haters have returned. For years the Texas crackpot, Ron Paul, has been attacking America and Israel as imperialist powers – the Great Satan and the Little Satan, and calling for America’s retreat from the […]
Barack Obama habitually lies so much about what he’s doing that I’m surprised he doesn’t introduce himself as Rumplestilskin just to keep in practice. Well, Jake Tapper is calling Obama out on a particularly egregious lie about deficit spending, In an interview with ABC News’ Cincinnati affiliate WCPO-TV Wednesday. In an , President Obama said […]
The American Conservative Union (ACU) is the entity that runs the biggest annual conservative event, the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Next year CPAC will be headed by a new face, Al Cardenas. Now former Chairman David Keene turns over the reigns to Cardenas after the 2011 CPAC event. Cardenas has a compelling story, indeed. […]
This one is hilarious. Union chief James P. Hoffa of the Teamsters has an op ed in the Detroit News where he’s crying that everyone is turning against unions these days. Yes, ole Jimmy is yelling, “leave unions alone!” Hoffa’s headline whines out, “American ills not caused by unions.” We call that a straw man […]
Last September the Senate refused to reverse a rules change made out of pocket by Obama’s National Mediation Board. The rule change reversed a 75-year-old practice and made it possible to unionize a company even if less than half of its employees wanted to be unionized. Previous to the rules change, any company in the […]
Iraq’s capital wants the United States to apologize and pay $1 billion for the damage done to the city not by bombs but by blast walls and Humvees since the U.S.-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein. — Reuters Many of you are probably choking on this very reasonable demand from the politicians in Baghdad. But, […]
If PBS is so incredibly incompetent that they can’t even manage to keep a show as wildly successful and ever present as Sesame Street on the air without government help, then they deserve to go out of business Jim DeMint: The Muppets are in town. No, not for a show. They are in Washington to […]
It has never made sense for government employees to be allowed to unionize. Government jobs AREN’T SUPPOSED TO BE cushy. Government workers shouldn’t make more than people in the private sector who are paying their salaries. Moreover, if you look at the budget problems state and local governments are having, you’ll find union benefits and […]
