Recently the L.A. Times reported that the White House warned Democrat incumbents to avoid talking about the Party’s “accomplishments” as they campaign for office this year. In an effort coordinated with the White House, congressional leaders are urging Democrats to focus less on bragging about what they have done – a landmark healthcare law, a […]
It’s settled. People that play the lottery should lay down their scratchoff coins and take up an employment application to work for the government. After all, winning the lottery is a one-in-a-million proposition but if you get a job with the government your hitting the lottery seems to be a sure thing. USA Today is […]
When you really need some stupid liberal conspiracies for your daily amusement, TPM is there: Does The 2012 GOP Convention Logo Include A Minaret? The RNC’s 2012 convention logo features the Tampa Bay skyline and one of the buildings apparently represented in the logo is what was formerly the Old Tampa Bay Hotel, a prominent […]
I’m missing something. Either that, or Portia de Rossi’s gone badly off the radical feminist reservation: If you take your husband’s name, you must be dependent and incompetent. If you don’t, of course, you’re a ball-busting feminist – or that even more pitiable creature, someone without a husband at all. And, in most cases, you […]
Artwork by Vasile Stan So, lots of Americans lose hope. And why not? It’s pretty miserable for people out there: Here’s the text, if you’re at work and can’t watch the video: CHYRON: “WELCOME TO THE RECOVERY” OBAMA TREASURY SEC. TIMOTHY GEITHNER NY TIMES 8/2/10 CHYRON: 9.5% UNEMPLOYMENT CROWD: [cheering] Obama, Obama, Obama! CHYRON: 14.6 […]
A couple of years back, I was invited to participate in a TV special in New York that was put on by the equivalent of PBS in Japan. Long story short, it featured Americans talking with people from Hiroshima about nuclear weapons. The result, which I’ve never seen, was supposed to be shown on the […]
For those jobs that can’t be outsourced to Asia, our liberal rulers are importing Muslims: US Senator and chairman of Senate’s Foreign Relations Committee, John Kerry, appealed on Tuesday for cementing US ties with the Muslim world with a two-way exchange of professionals like teachers, city planners, and public health workers. Kerry introduced a bill […]
How bizarre it is to live under an allegedly American government that suppresses expressions of loyalty to America: A group of high school students attending a conservative leadership conference in Washington, D.C. said they were ordered by a security guard to stop singing the national anthem during a June 25 visit to the Lincoln Memorial. […]
One of the things about liberals that always strikes me is that they seem to start with the assumption that we should always have money to spend for a good cause. So, if we need to extend unemployment benefits for a year? Well, do it! People in Africa need more money to fight AIDS? Go […]
There’s nothing like a sanctimonious liberal bent on proving his open-mindedness to make things difficult for people actually trying to affect a cultural change. In this specific case, moderate Muslims want a voice at the table and help in changing public perception, but liberals will have none of it. On the one hand, we have […]
“The American people have seen who is benefiting from Obama’s economy and it isn’t them. Barack Obama’s looming tax hikes on small businesses, job-killing regulations, and big government takeovers have created an economic climate saturated with uncertainty that is keeping employers from hiring. As a result, unemployment remains near 10 percent, nearly one in five […]
Liberal historians have been ranking Presidents for years and of course there’s always a heavy leftward skew to their evaluations. Republicans are inevitably ranked lower than they deserve to be while Democrats are sure to be portrayed in the kindest historical light. Here’s a different take on the issue: A look at the worst Presidents […]
The New York Times sent Mattathias Schwartz to find out what was going on at Jack Dailey’s firearms training camps across the country and what he found apparently made the writer fear that America was going to the lily white, revolutionary, tea party dogs. Schwartz went to learn about Jack Dailey’s Appleseed Project firearms marksmanship […]
Yes, some nattering nabobs aren’t content with living their own lives meat free on Mondays, they want you to do the same! There’s a movement afoot aimed at changing the way we eat one day a week. The Meatless Monday campaign is backed by public health advocates, chefs and suburban moms who want to tackle […]
There are several precepts that American jurisprudence is supposed to be based upon. “Equal under the law,” “justice is blind,” “no man is either above or below the law,” in the U.S. these basic ideas undergird the premise that we are all the same under our American law. But apparently someone forgot to tell the […]
The so-called “tax extenders” bill that was initially part of the unemployment package that Congress passed last month is still on the table. It was separated from the unemployment bill because the GOP opposed its inclusion and for good reason. It is little else but a sop to special interests and big corporations. The Democrats […]
I bet Barry didn’t see this one coming President Barack Obama has a flimsy case for claiming the economy is moving forward, as he has been claiming at recent Democratic Party fundraisers, critics say. “Right now he’s got us in a ditch,” Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.), chairman of the Republican Study Committee, told CNSNews.com. “There’s […]
Earlier today the left sent up cheers for an Alaska “teacher” that is seen on video attacking Governor Palin as “the worst Governor ever” as the sign she was putting up read. When Gov. Palin interacted with her, the woman told Palin she was a “teacher.” Looks like the woman, Kathleen Gustafson, is a liar. […]
I love the fact that you can almost take out Obama and Osama at the same time. But seriously, I’d say the leftist outrage is a bit much, since everything from guillotines to Bush assassination movies greeted the 43rd occupant of the White House. Well, at least it gives desperate lefties another chance to scream […]
Some mid-afternoon Monday humor
Comrade Obama’s “Summer of Recovery” is not going down in history as one of our happiest seasons. As the Virtuous Republic observes, It’s as if Obama and Biden hosted a backyard barbeque and served burnt burgers, raw bratwurst, [and] warm pop and the picnic table was filthy and surrounded by flies and yet it was […]
Not all unions are pernicious enough to back Obama’s agenda. National Council 118, representing Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents for the American Federation of Government Employees, issued a vote of no confidence (PDF) against top bureauweenies ICE Director John Morton and ICE Office of Detention Policy and Planning Assistant Director Phyllis Coven. A partial list […]
As we are sonorously and endlessly told, the Southern Poverty Law Center is all about exposing the “hate” and working for “civil rights” in America. But a new website, Watching the Watchdogs, has tracked down the salaries and identities of SPLC’s top officers and it is interesting to note that they are all white people. […]
What was it that Democrat President Barack Obama told us about the stimulus? Oh, yeah that it would “save or create” American jobs. Seems like a good idea, right? So what happened in Ohio when Democrat Governor Ted Strickland got his mitts on some of Obama’s stimulus cash? Why he gave it to a company […]
First the greenies came to take away our lightbulbs in the U.S. and force us to buy more expensive ones. Now the greenies are on the march in Australia with the unkindest swipe of all: forcing Australians to pay 42 percent more for toilet paper. In a report recently put out by Tim Wilson of […]
This column by small business owner Michael Fleischer is absolutely extraordinary because it gives people who’ve never worked for themselves a window into the world of the small business owner. These are the people who are endlessly vilified by the Left despite the fact that they create most of the jobs in our country. They’re […]
Keir Lieber and Daryl Press, previously at Foreign Affairs, “Preserving the American Deterrent“: The success of nuclear deterrence may turn out to be its own undoing. Nuclear weapons helped keep the peace in Europe throughout the Cold War, preventing the bitter dispute from engulfing the continent in another catastrophic conflict. But after nearly 65 years […]
The press won’t go there because, well, they love President Barack Obama and this story, accurately reported, is painful. I haven’t gone there because I don’t really care what’s going on between President Obama and his wife. President Clinton defiling the Oval office concerned me because his actions were a big f-u to the American […]
Glenn Beck goes after Media Matters in an awesome way. Please listen. As usual, The Right Scoop gets the tape: Also, the President and everyone in the media gets roasted over a spit in this clip. So awesome. “The real fault is Keith Olbermann.” Oh, for context: Glenn Beck uses the Media Matters taking a […]
Barack Obama seems to have the same attitude towards vacations that Al Gore has about cutting back because of global warming: That’s a good idea for you peons, but not for him. Barack Obama is the same guy who’s made a big deal about other people’s vacations, hasn’t he? This was the guy who quite […]
