Thanks to Jeff Dunetz at Yid With Lid we have found out that a former ACORN worker turned director of the League of Women Voters has been heard justifying actions of the debate moderator who tried to prevent the audience at an 8th District candidate debate from reciting the Pledge of Allegiance last week. As […]
Because he really needs an enemy. Wait, what? Let there be no mistake: President Obama wants the Democrats to win next week’s midterm elections. His voice has gone hoarse telling every audience that from Delaware to Oregon. But let’s also acknowledge this: Although he will not say so, there is at least a plausible argument […]
It must be nice to be an Obama insider like Democrat Senate candidate Alexi “The Mob Banker” Giannoulias is. Obama’s FDIC is obviously in his corner, it seems. After all, the FDIC decided to wait until after the election is over to release its report on the failure of Giannoulias’s family bank. So, Giannoulias might […]
Jacob Weisberg, Slate columnist and compiler of the Bushisms, is having what they commonly refer to as a royal conniption fit. If you’ve seen The Social Network, you may have caught a passing glimpse of Peter Thiel. Thiel was the first outside investor in Facebook, putting up $500,000 to finance the site’s original expansion in […]
Had an awesome idea. This really old ugly guy was staring back at me from my bathroom mirror. He had Beethoven’s hair…at least, in volume. Lots of split ends, and I don’t wanna know what kind of thin spot he had up top. Nick Nolte’s face, and the Ayatollah Khomenei’s eyebrows. You could hide ball-point […]
Cross-Posted from NewsReal Blog In the past few months we’ve featured segments from my interview with Howard Bloom, author of The Genius of the Beast, Global Brain, and The Lucifer Principle. Collected here are the first six segments of the interview: Part 1: Part 2: Part 3: Part 4: Part 5: Part 6: Parts 7, […]
Wisconsin native David Zucker cracks me up. ‘Airplane!’ director cuts ad poking fun at Boxer for ‘ma’am’ exchange with general A well-known Hollywood producer and director has cut an ad against Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) riffing on when the senator chided an Army brigadier general last year for calling her “ma’am.” David Zucker (Wisconsin native […]
Jammie Wearing Fool brought to our attention the weird’o story Mrs Quaid begged a Canadian immigration adjudicator not to force her to return, saying friends, such as actors David Carradine and Heath Ledger, have been ‘murdered’ under mysterious circumstances. ‘We feel our lives are in danger,’ she said. ‘Randy has known eight close friends murdered […]
There’s a half-off sale in the world’s tallest building: Even with an address at the iconic Burj Khalifa, rents for residences in the tower are not immune from Dubai’s real estate crash. Indeed, nearly a year after it was inaugurated with a massive water-and-fireworks display, about 825 of the tower’s 900 ultra-luxury apartments remain unoccupied […]
Oh, my, where oh where are they? Dick Cheney is certainly not one to hold back on how he really feels. George W. Bush, on the other hand, has been mum. Despite their differing approaches to handling the post-White House years, their absence on the campaign trail has been obvious. Has it? Obama and other […]
For the third time, Obama has elected to redact “endowed by their Creator” from a recitation of the text of the Declaration of Independence.: No longer a possible fluke, this omission is now a clear pattern. What does it mean? The reason Obama refuses to say that rights are endowed by our Creator does not […]
Just when you thought Democrats couldn’t get any more ridiculous……..well, really, that thought probably hadn’t occurred, since we all know that Democrats are always quite capable of doing incredible stupid things. Like this With Democrats increasingly outraged (WT-yeah, there’s a shocker, Dems being outraged) over the Supreme Court’s Citizen United decision that allowed unlimited corporate […]
There’s a bumper sticker on Air Force One – Have Teleprompter, Will Travel. Barry plans to get out of Dodge right after the midterm election and one of the stops on his whirlwind junket will be Parliament House in Bombay. There he’ll address a joint session of India’s Parliament, accompanied of course by his trusty […]
Just when you think the Left can’t get any more wonky, here’s a little bit of (I hope) light hearted wackiness from the Left. One of TPM’s readers wonders Not to be such a nitpicky female, but how did Christine O’Donnell’s hair go from a professional, skimming the shoulders cut in the “I am not […]
I tweeted about this last night but it deserves mention on the blog, too. Hilarious: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is having a heck of a time trying to get re-elected, in part, he says, because people don’t want to know that he prevented a worldwide depression. The Nevada Democrat, whose poll numbers are see-sawing […]
What a coincidence: just before Juan Williams was axed by NPR for appearing on Fox News, George Soros, the sinister Nazi collaborator who recently poured another $1 million into the anti-Fox smear machine Media Matters, also gave NPR $1.8 million through his nefarious Open Society Foundations. Apparently that was more than enough to buy Williams’s […]
Countermoonbat challenger Ruth McClung has ultra-left congresscritter Raul Grijalva, a traitor to both his state and his country, running scared enough to panic — unless he actually thinks anyone is buying this, from yesterday’s Arizona Daily Scar: U.S. Rep. Raúl Grijalva’s congressional office is closed this afternoon as police respond to a suspicious piece of […]
One of the reasons that most Islamic societies are backward and will remain backward for the foreseeable future is the way that they treat women. Sure, you can argue that things aren’t perfect for women in the Western world. But, if you compare the treatment of women in a country like say the United States […]
David Zucker has made a great video slamming Barbara “Senator Ma’am” Boxer. It is very funny. Call Me Madam Joe from RightChange on Vimeo. Zucker says on BigHollywood.com, “I was motivated to do something on this after I saw the video of Barbara Boxer interrogating the General.” I remember immediately feeling embarrassed that a member […]
The controversy over the GQ photos of the “Glee” actors illustrates exactly what I was talking about the other day in my post on liberal culture. (1st link NSFW) If you don’t know what I’m talking about, take a look at the link (NSFW). It’s a series of photos of two of Glee’s female stars […]
I’m a big fan of David Horowitz’s work and I was very pleased to get an opportunity to interview him about his new book, Reforming Our Universities: The Campaign For An Academic Bill Of Rights. What follows is the transcript of our conversation, edited significantly for brevity’s sake (The conversation went a full 27 minutes, […]
The NAACP has released its unbiased report on racism in the Tea Party and has unexpectedly found it is racist. Hardly surprising. The president of the North Carolina NAACP chapter, Rev. William Barber, went far enough in his condemnation of the group to be noticed by the Washington Post: “We have to have particular concern […]
If anyone wants a current example of what is looming ahead for medical science at the hands of Obamacare, the Avastin controversy is a perfect one. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) wants to de-list the cancer drug Avastin one reason being that it is a drug too expensive for government to fund. It is […]
Poor baby. If only he had been able to spend more time talking about how great his mostly outsourced legislation, people would love it. Sniffle President Barack Obama told a friendly backyard gathering on Thursday that he was so focused on getting the policy right on helping the economy recover that he didn’t devote enough […]
Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences, a K-12 facility in Santa Monica, California, is tired of all the political insanity out there. To help ameliorate this state of affairs, the school has decided to use its campus assets, its school email system, and its teachers to sponsor a Jon Stewart-styled rally to “restore sanity” in […]
No, no, the media and the DNC never co-ordinate their talking points. This smacks of desperation. First we get Top Corporations Aid U.S. Chamber of Commerce Campaign on page A1 of the NY Times Prudential Financial sent in a $2 million donation last year as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce kicked off a national advertising […]
Washington is borrowing 37 cents of every dollar it spends from our kids and grandkids. Given that, I think it’s reasonable to ask why Congress is spending taxpayers’ money to support a left-wing radio network – and in the wake of Juan Williams’ firing, it’s clearer than ever that’s what NPR is. — John Boehner […]
With phrases like, “reigniting American’s passion for liberty,” and “saving our party will save our country,” what’s not to like? K Carl Smith, The Conservative Messenger from Wetumpka Tea Party on Vimeo. You can see Mr. Smith’s website at: http://www.conservativemessenger.org/. One of his interesting contentions is that the federal government is the modern day slave […]
Originally posted at NewsReal and cross-posted at Hot Air Another awesome video from Ben Howe (with brother Caleb Howe). First he had “The Last Best Hope.” Next came The Socialist, which was a brilliant take-off of the film The Social Network. He clearly showed the disdain with which the current crop of Democrats treats American […]
Britons thinking of going away for vacation might want to reconsider. With liberal ideology having rotted society to the point that it no longer functions, who will defend your house while you’re gone? In the middle of completely refurbishing his five-bedroom house, Connan Gupta felt he deserved a week off. It is a decision he […]
