Reid Says Greatest Living Americans Are Senators Byrd and Kennedy?
Harry Reid (D, Nev.) isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, apparently. In an interview with CBN’s David Brody, Senator Reid replied that the greatest living American was Ted Kennedy. Reid then added West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd to the short list. Oddly enough, both of these “greatest living” Senators died earlier this year. In […]

Meghan McCain’s Delusional Persecution Complex
My latest post at Human Events: When Meghan McCain tweeted the link to her newest Daily Beast “article” on Twitter Tuesday night, my first thought was “How the hell did I get unblocked by her? Why am I seeing this tweet?” This was disconcerting to say the least. I was afraid that I may have […]

FrumForum Contributor Alex Knepper Fired by Daily Caller in Pedophilia Scandal
I had an exchange at my blog with Alex Knepper some time back, after California’s Proposition 8 became a national controversy. I don’t dislike Alex. Lately though, on Facebook and Twitter, Alex has come across as extremely combative, for example in response to my essay on Tyler Clementi. I had slammed his arguments as juvenile […]

American Dictator
A former community organizer, President Obama has aggressively and repeatedly attacked the ultimate community organization: the Tea Party movement. But the Tea Party is not alone. The man who “acts more like a dictator than a President” has a far wider-ranging enemies list than meets the eye. The following parties are by no means meant […]

Short Video Book Review: Henry Hazlitt’s Economics in One Lesson
People have wanted me to talk about this book for quite a while. I read it a few years ago, but since I’m always pushing Thomas Sowell’s books, here is another that I’d highly recommend. Henry Hazlitt’s Economics in One Lesson is the perfect book to give to family and friends.

Video: What We Tea Party Conservatives Believe
Bill Whittle has a great, great video here helping to explain our conservative views in an intelligent, even soft-spoken, style. This is part one of two, the second to come soon.

Chris Christie’s Awesome Week
For a guy who’s “not running” for president Chris Christie is making all the right moves. New Jersey’s rock-star governor is on fire, raising money for national candidates, thrilling crowds from Iowa to California, standing up to the teachers union (while still being firmly committed to public education), and keeping his promises to eliminate wasteful […]

Oops. Obama’s ‘Saved Job’ Was Just Lost
Oh, it was a thing to be celebrated when Obama’s payoff to the teachers unions back in August “saved” the job of Ohio school teacher Amanda VanNess. It was such a thing of wonder that the big guy flew the elementary school teacher all the way to D.C. for an Oval Office signing ceremony. (Pictured: […]

What’s more surprising: that the President is being disingenuous, or that I’m so surprised at the level of disingenuousness?
Barack Obama, speaking in Richmond last month: “Now, I’m not a math teacher. But I know a little bit about math. They’re proposing about $4 trillion worth of tax cuts. About $700 billion of those tax cuts are for people who typically are millionaires and billionaires, and on average would get $100,000 in tax relief–$700 […]

Snap! Even Dying Is Now Bad For The Climate
In yet another article that shows the lengths climate alarmists will go to support their unhinged and cultish theory, dying is now bad In Western societies, disposing of a dead body has come down to two choices: there’s burial, and there’s cremation. Occasionally, a corpse is donated to science, but even those remains usually make […]

A Hollywood-Like Casting Call for Obama’s Oct. ‘Townhall’ in D.C.?
What is this? Obama is sponsoring a Hollywood-like casting call for a “diverse” audience for his upcoming October 14 townhall to be held in D.C? But, I thought everyone loved The One and would fall all over themselves to turn out in droves for an Obammessiah “townhall”? Why do they have to resort to a […]

A Report On The Oct 7, 2010 Tea Party In Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (5 Pics)
They had a Tea Party last night in Myrtle Beach — and it was a little unusual. It was the first Tea Party I’ve ever been to that was inside a building. It was in a school auditorium — which honestly, detracted from the normal festive atmosphere. There were no signs, there wasn’t a lot […]

Beef Industry Speaks Out On EPA “Dust” Rule – Say Goodbye To The Industry
Several months ago, the EPA made it known that they were considering regulating dust from farms. Dust. Something that really can’t be stopped without drastic, and costly, measures.

The Lies States Peddle on Pension ‘Savings’
Pensions are fast becoming the time bomb that will destroy the financial well being of our state budgets.

Many states have at last begun […]

Obama And Democrats Continue Assault On Chamber Of Commerce
Remember the good old days, when politicians followed the spirit of the 1st Amendment, and did not attack private entities who used their God given right to criticize the government without fear of reprisal?

This Week In Quotes (Double Edition: Sept 24 – Oct 7)
Look, as the old truism goes: Any organization which is not expressly right-wing will become left-wing over time. The reason is personnel; liberals don’t like actually making or doing things; they prefer to deal in the abstract, hands-clean. They like to advocate, or support, or take some people’s money and give it to some other […]

Postal Workers Union Election on Hold Over Ballots Lost in the Mail
