It won’t be long before the Holocaust never happened. In France, teaching students about it can already get you suspended: A history teacher has been suspended in France for spending too much time teaching students about the Holocaust. Catherine Pederzoli, 58, a secondary school teacher who is Jewish, was accused of teaching the subject with […]
Figures. See Politico, “Few Options for Barack Obama on 9/11“: Every year it’s a challenge for the White House: how to commemorate the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. This year is especially awkward, given the controversy around President Barack Obama’s remarks in support of an Islamic cultural center and mosque planned for a neighborhood near […]
(This is a special double edition since I was attending Defending the American Dream and Beck’s Restoring Honor rally last week) I don’t know really how all of this is going to shake out. I do know that organizations like Tea Party Express and the RNC and National Republican Trust and all the other cash-raising […]
A quick scan of the headlines this morning: —– NYT: U.S. Lost 54,000 Jobs in August; Rate Rose to 9.6% —– Byron York: New evidence undermines feds’ case against Arizona —– Larry Sabato: Shock Prediction: GOP to Take House, Maybe Senate in 2010 Election —– Fox News: Former Car Czar Rattner Rats on Obama —– […]
In the if-a-white-guy-said-it department, a black oriented website called The Atlanta Post is featuring a piece by Yvette Carnell headlined, “Obama’s Achilles Heel: He’s Not African-American,” in which Carnell decides that Obama is failing because he isn’t really black enough to make it all work. Further Carnell asserts that Obama can’t convince African Americans that […]
Here’s a question for you, True Believers: if man caused global warming, or “climate change,” if you prefer, is so bad, then why does it seem that all your leaders live the high carbon life? First up today, the head of the UN Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change! RAJENDRA PACHAURI has a chauffeur, lives in […]
As we discussed here yesterday Vanity Fair published a badly sourced attack piece on Governor Palin. But the piece is even worse than first thought. As Politico’s Ben Smith discovered, the Vanity Fair piece contained yet another lie passed off as “journalism.” Smith highlighted the part of the VF piece that led the reader to […]
Of course, since the real Sheriff Joe is tough as nails on crime and illegal aliens, he is called “controversial.” Except, there is one problem with why he was sued: it wasn’t for supposed discrimination The U.S. Department of Justice on Thursday sued a controversial and popular Arizona sheriff, alleging that his department was refusing […]
I am loving this story. Maybe, just maybe, the GOP is finally understanding that in order to really reach out to minorities you don’t just offer similar values and beliefs, but you make sure they understand that they are a part of us as well. GOP gubernatorial candidate Rick Scott on Thursday morning announced that […]
From the folks at the Free Enterprise Alliance, a group of free market advocates backed by the construction industry. Appearing on televisions in places near and far, ABC’s Free Enterprise Alliance this week will launch a new ad asking travelers to look around, find a representative, and tell them to Halt The Assault on free […]
-By Warner Todd Huston Unbelievable. In Oregon the reg’lar folks are losing their jobs right and left. And the bad luck for those actually paying the bills, the taxpayers, gets even worse because Oregon’s politicians have made sure that the state’s public employees unions get an automatic 5% pay raise starting this Wednesday! 5 percent […]
Unfortunately, there are dangerous kooks, trigger-happy wackos, and lone gunmen out there. Bad people exist. Crazy people exist — and every so often, one of them snaps and there’s a resulting body count. To most people, this is just a tragic fact of life. However, to liberals in the media who are forever baffled by […]
Short answer: Whatever. Nothing is assured in this climate. Long answer: I’ll get to it in a minute. First, Ace says this: I’d bet on McConnell, but I wouldn’t bet much. FWIW, I think… I’m meh on him. I don’t dislike him, I don’t resent him, I understand the need for tactics and stuff, but […]
Via Tim Blair comes the coolest t-shirt since “Don’t tase me, bro”….
Islam surely has a friend in our government. While our rulers’ plans to use our money to help build a massive shrine to Islamic terrorism at Ground Zero get most of the attention, countless other stories play out in the shadows — like this one: Federal officials say a JBS Swift & Co. meatpacking plant […]
One front in Big Government’s war on free enterprise is a bizarre intimidation campaign intended to browbeat companies that market food kids like. The Federal Trade Commission is once again handing out subpoenas to companies that market food to children and teens. Three years after initially delivering what is technically known as “orders to file […]
Darleen Glick over at one of my favorite websites Protein Wisdom writes this: Now, what won’t you see from the MSM about James Jay Lee? You won’t see Katie Couric worrying about Lee’s possible ties to Moveon or SEIU or ACORN. You won’t see Frank Rich writing about how MSNBC and Leftwing Radio have produced […]
Last week David Limbaugh and I discussed his new book Crimes Against Liberty: An Indictment of President Barack Obama. This week? The interview is live and the timing is fantastic because Limbaugh’s book has hit #1 on the New York Times Bestseller list. What follows is a slightly edited transcript of our conversation. Enjoy! First […]
Remember that iftar dinner the president sponsored? The dinner that got him in trouble because he came out in strong support of the mega-mosque at Ground Zero, support from which he backed away the very next day? Well, it turns out he delivered another blatant lie at that dinner, one that slipped under the radar […]
This should all end in tears. Or hilarity. Whichever Labor leaders, liberal religious leaders and the NAACP will hold a rally on the National Mall on October 2, one month before the fall midterm elections, in an attempt to show they too have political clout and momentum in response to last Saturday’s massive gathering of […]
The L.A. Times recently reported that in California unions have already spent $14 million to defeat Republicans in California’s coming elections. This is what any Republican has to face anywhere in the country, though not always at such a high spending rate. The fact is that when Republicans run for office they face not only […]
If we were being uncharitable, we could probably assign a motive to the Washington Post for publishing this story, but, hey, it’s early morning, and the article seems to avoid partisan rancor, so A deep recession and tougher border enforcement have led to a sharp decline in the number of immigrants entering the United States […]
I’ve laid out a full analysis here: “Biden Grudgingly Credits Bush on Success of Iraq Surge.” But check the clip. Man, this guy is hatin’ it! Can’t give the dreaded Bush neocons the slightest acknowledgement of firmness and resolve, not to mention pragmatism and smarts:
But his gun wielding, hostage-taking crazy is most certainly NOT motivated by politics. He’s just, you know, crazy. Because crazy people do things when they’re on the left–they have good intentions, don’t you know, they just go a wee bit too far. James Lee’s MySpace Account is titled WorldGuardian: love the world, hate people. He […]
Under a hard tyranny, if professional intellectuals fail to toe the official line, they are imprisoned or killed. What happens to them in a soft tyranny? Ask Dr. James Enstrom, a professor at UCLA who has been fired for thought crimes: Enstrom, an epidemiologist at UCLA’s School of Public Health, … says his studies show […]
After Germans got carried away applying progressive ideology to the Jewish Question, the movement has backed away from eugenics, limiting its genocidal proclivities to the aggressive promotion of abortion. But to this day, if you scratch a liberal (as progressives now call themselves), you will often find a Nazi. For example, Professor David Marsland wants […]
All in all, the only person on the Right that I found who seemed to like the speech was Bill Kristol — and he didn’t exactly heap rainbows, faeries, and fluffy unicorn bellyscratches on it either. That being said, it’s also worth noting that while the reviews were almost universally negative, they weren’t all that […]
* Sarah Palin blasted Lisa “RINO” Murkowski’s political career like it was a wolf running from her helicopter & I love it * Some day, when I have a less demanding job, I look forward to taking as many vacations as Obama. * Women get their nails done and get zillions of shoes for other […]
Congressman Paul Ryan (R, Wis) and former Congressional Budget Office Director Doug Holtz-Eakin came together early this week to lambaste Obama’s failed economic policies. In a conference call to supporters and the press, CBO Director Holtz-Eakin said that there is “no evidence” that “the stimulus has really worked” and that Obama’s Keynesian fixes simply won’t […]
