Do-Gooders Declare Internet to Be a Human Right

Most causes advanced by do-gooders sound great — until you give a moment’s thought to where their underlying assumptions will lead. For example: If you’re looking to do something good for a change, the NGO A Human Right, which believes “equal, universal, uninhibited Internet access is a human right,” is in the process of raising […]

More Bad News For The Economy

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today that the jobless rate rose to 9.8 percent in November. The economy only added a measly 39,000 jobs. Forecasters had expected more than three times that. Not good, my friends. It’s beyond frustrating that this Congress and administration spent so much time on a massive healthcare bill that […]

Lame Duck Threat to Bailout Union Pensions

Connie Hair has an informative piece at Human Events about what Democrats are hoping to do in the next few weeks in this lame duck session by pushing another big union bailout. In October, Sen.

Friday Stupid: That Bathroom For Female House Members Could Cost Some Serious Moola!

Alternate title: When Liberals Put Partisan Politics Over Support For Women’s Equality. Alternate alternate title: I Don’t Remember This Concern Over Democrat Spending.

This Week In Quotes. Special Double Edition (Nov 19-Dec 2)

What we said back last Thanksgiving and repeated again and got the living Devil beat out of us by good friends like John McCain and others, we said, ‘Look, beginning in the summer of 2011, we’re going to begin to transition. That commitment will be kept. We said then the slope and the pace of […]

FCC Authoritarianism

So the FCC Commissioner doesn’t like the news content so he wants to change it via government mandate. There are more choices for news than ever before, demonstrating why this is just an unconstitutional power grab. I made a video about it below.

The Con in Cancun: UN Climate Change Summit Update

I am here in Cancun, Mexico investigating the U.N. Climate Change Conference to see what sort of wonderful solutions to save our very planet are being planned for all of us here in sunny Mexico. It’s always nice that we can come to save the planet… at a nice resort hotel complex… on a beach… […]

USA Bailing Out Bankrupt Europe

If you’ve read Ayn Rand’s prophetic Atlas Shrugged, you probably saw this coming.

Assange’s Supplier and the Repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell

Julian Assange isn’t the only repugnant creepazoid involved in potentially getting people killed by exposing secret documents on WikiLeaks. Assange got many of his documents from Bradley Manning. For insight into Manning’s motivation, don’t waste your time on the “mainstream” media. Accuracy in Media reports on the reporters: The New York Times reported, “The possibility […]

Snap! GOP To Kill House Climate Alarmism Panel

I can just picture Nancy P. stomping her ruby slippers and screaming “they can’t do this!!!!1!!!!” Republicans will eliminate the House committee created by Speaker Nancy Pelosi to highlight the threat of climate change, Representative James Sensenbrenner, the top Republican on the panel, said today. I actually think this is a bad move. Instead of […]

College Dream About to Get Easier … for Illegals

When deciding on a college, funding options are everything – especially these days. More than ever, the cost of college forces a decision that affects a young life long-term. As a result of factors such as state residency, sometimes location is the only factor in play despite any personal wishes. According to the Democratic leadership, […]

How the GOP Will Get and Keep the Youth Vote in 2012

There are many current reasons why the youth vote in 2012 will be overwhelming against the current president and in turn his liberal party. Through a majority of his actions he has consistently attacked this demographic. From Obamacare to the student loan takeover, it seems like the people who helped him arrive where he is […]

You Can Take Your Civility Pledge And Shove it

Come to think of it, that headline’s not very civil, is it? My very, very sincere and civil apologies! Wonder if that would be good enough for Lanny Davis & Mark DeMoss? It’s only 32 words. Yet, only two sitting members of Congress or governors have signed the civility pledge. So what was it about […]

My Fave 20 140 Character Thoughts For November

* Environmentalists: Wasting billions on global warming, killing millions by banning DDT, & starving children by fighting frankenfood * Liberal feminism: Devotion to abortion, copying the worst traits of men, & pretending to be outraged by the real world. * Liberals find a rationale for supporting just about anything that degrades morality, tradition, and American […]

U.S. Should Not Repeat Germany’s Wind Power Mistake

Before the U.S. Congress commits any more taxpayer dollars, it is time to look realistically and with a jaundiced eye at “green energy” policies being touted by the Obama administration.: : There are very expensive examples around the world showing:  these “green” energy technologies to be abysmal failures.:  The new Republican Congress should reconsider, defund and halt […]

Expensive, Stupid Public Transit Tricks: San Francisco’s “MUNI”

San Francisco city government is totally, utterly out of control.:  Shame on California voters for rewarding the dippity-do mayor Gavin Newsom with the Peter Principle promotion to lieutenant governor.:  Newsom’s absentee leadership while campaigning continuously leaves behind a city mired in half a billion in red ink.:  The failure to deal effectively with the city’s […]

British Report: Not Letting Sex Criminals Adopt Children Is Discriminatory

Britain provides yet another example of why the last people you would want advising lawmakers are pointy-headed liberal establishment “experts”: The government could face legal action if it continues to ban sex offenders from working with children, according to research published today. A report by a family law expert argues that some sex offenders should […]

Smoking Gun on Google Bias: Moonbattery.com Listed as “Compromised”

It looks like Moonbattery’s gentle admonishments of Google for incessantly wallowing in leftist ideology are not going over very well: There is no technical problem with the site, as the ISP has confirmed. Despite its liberal corporate climate, Google supposedly returns search results on a nonpartisan basis. But Moonbattery’s bogus “compromised” status suggests otherwise. On […]

More Palin Bashing: How CNN Misleads With Headlines

CNN indulged a classic left media tactic by misleading with a headline in a recent piece on former Governor Sarah Palin. The headline, if read by itself, seems to be saying that Sarah Palin delivered a “gaffe-filled message,” when the truth is that her message talked about gaffes, but wasn’t “filled” with them per se.
