Liberalism in 120 Seconds: There’s nothing compassionate about liberalism
It’s tough to find good Christmas gifts for some people. That’s because once you get to a certain age, if you don’t have fancy taste and have made a certain amount of money, you’ve probably already bought or been given most of the things you want. But, no matter how many things you may have, […]
Last week, I ran the The 2nd Annual 40 Best Political Quotes Of 2010. There were a few outstanding quotes that didn’t quite make the cut, but were still good enough to see the light of day in the post. Here they are! Enjoy! At some point, some high-profile Arizona pol really should call the […]
And German pork-eaters, at that. Otherwise, here at home, we’d be having yet another wave of progressive head explosions. Via Theo Spark: Cross-posted from American Power.
You think? The story’s at New York Times. Turns out that Mark Zuckerberg and Co. are developing a “hate and harassment team” … …charged with taking down content that is illegal or violates Facebook’s terms of service. That puts them on the front line of the debate over free speech on the Internet. Right. Free […]
Billionaire boys with very expensive toys want to come play in the San Francisco bay for the 2013 America’s Cup and they want the overstretched taxpayers of the city to pay for their games.
We’ve always known that conservatives stay true to enduring values, whereas liberals are led this way and that as they chase the pernicious intellectual fads pushed by the malignant puppeteers who run the progressive media and academic establishments. Now science confirms it: In a new study, [University of Nebraska-Lincoln] researchers measured both liberals’ and conservatives’ […]
The Muslim–moonbat alliance has an avatar in Keith Ellison, the leftist Nation of Islam alumnus Minneapolis sees fit to send to Congress. An interview with his fellow progressives at Minnesota Public Radio offers insight into our first Muslim Congresscritter’s mentality. Here’s why he doesn’t like the tax compromise Comrade Obama struck with Republicans: “I think […]
On Dec. 11, 2010, I attended a townhall meeting held in the 14th Congressional District featuring Congressman-elect Randy Hultgren and newly minted Senator Mark Kirk. The event was held in the theater of a local high school in Saint Charles, Illinois. The afternoon started out with an address by Senator Mark Kirk who already was […]
They told us that the longer ObamaCare was around, the more people would love it. Au, contraire Time doesn’t seem to be winning the new national health care law any more friends. Most voters have favored repeal of the law every week since it was passed and support for repeal has now inched up to […]
I’m tempted to use the malodorous phrase “jumping the shark”, a phrase I detest, for this next bit of climaidiocy, yet, the climate change hoax has continued on long after Happy Days finally ended beyond the Fonzie jumps the shark episode, and Happy Days wasn’t broadcasting idiocy daily. Case in point In 1933 Winston Churchill […]
Intellectualism has become the readiness, willingness and ability to call dangerous things safe, and safe things dangerous. — Morgan Freeberg What’s wrong with “the new elite?” Forget cultural insularity or smugness. The main problem with the “new elite” is that they’re not an elite at all. That is, they aren’t particularly smart, or competent. — […]
When Michael Steele ran for RNC Chairman, I was behind him 100%. There were certainly other qualified candidates, but he seemed like the best selection. He understood the conservative base, he had a great personality, and we definitely needed some new blood at the RNC. Well, Steele got the nod and his tenure at the […]
Do you ever have to get up and do a speech? Well, if so, I’d highly recommend reading Speak Like Churchill, Stand Like Lincoln: 21 Powerful Secrets of History’s Greatest Speakers. The book was written by James Humes, who has been a speechwriter to five Presidents, including Ronald Reagan. Here are the best quptes from […]
This one’s going viral. Or it should. Breyer made a brilliant point, the same way Joe Biden beat Sarah Palin in a debate: Didn’t do it. Flashed pearly whites in a grin that telegraphed self-satisfaction, condescension, insouciance and ignorance. Strip away the grin and there’s nothing to it. Not a shred of logic as far […]
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer appeared on Fox News Sunday this morning. He spoke to his interpretation of the Founding Fathers’ intent with regard to gun control. Hint – as an ultra-liberal Mr. Justice Breyer is totally in favor of as much gun control regulation as possible. After all, he authored the dissenting opinion […]
Suddenly the likes of Bernie Sanders care about the debt. Republicans, he and the angry left claim, are being hypocritical by not raising taxes.: This is nonsense. Keeping tax rates the same is not, as he claims, adding anything to the debt. Sure, Republicans have agreed to Obama’s costly extension of unemployment insurance, but that’s […]
At DownWithTyranny!, “At This Point Do We Have to Be Hoping for a Revolution?” (And Memeorandum.) From Howie Klein in the comments: On the other hand, more rich people and the criminal spawn can hang themselves, the way Mark Madoff did. That’s justice served — and revolutionary enough. Amazing. Folks may have heard. Mark Madoff […]

Big doings in exotic Cancun, doings which highlight exactly what this whole farce is all about Delegates from 193 nations agreed Saturday on a new global framework to help developing countries curb their carbon output and cope with the effects of climate change, but they postponed the harder question of precisely how industrialized and major […]
America has a president who can’t throw a baseball or play basketball without getting a booboo. He’s so henpecked and overwhelmed by the tax bill, he’s not even able to finish a news conference without help from big daddy Bubba.
REJOICE! The Good Guys have won!
By Abraxas: for UNCOVERAGE.net On December 12, 1996, a handful of black farmers, led by John Boyd (founder of the “National Black Farmers Association”) gathered on the frozen grass of Lafayette Park across from the White House to protest what they claimed was widespread racial discrimination by the USDA against black farmers. This protest prompted […]
This is a perfect example of less is more, in her wonderful delivery and in her message of limited government. Via Gateway Pundit and Dakota Voice. And at the Daily Republic, “US Rep.-elect Noem delivers Republican address“: U.S. Rep.-elect Kristi Noem delivered the weekly Republican address Saturday, reiterating her calls to cut spending and reduce […]

Not everyone is in the desperate legal straits of the Madoff family, but I have no doubt that between now and December 31, we are going to see more of these deathly tax dodges. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is being thwarted. This is what Obamanomics is doing to this nation: death is […]
