Lazy Union Hires Scabs to Protest For Them

Disrupting a business and trying to extort them for undeserved riches is a tough job. It really makes a union thug tired, you know? So, what to do, what to do? Well, because protesting an employer is such tiring work, the Mid-Atlantic Regional Council of Carpenters Union came up with the perfect solution: hire non-union […]

Why are We Suprised?

Just around MemoGate I was an aspiring reporter who was prepping for a career in investigative journalism. In my spare time, I had a political Internet radio program called The Conservative Watchdog. This was the only place I allowed my political views to surface, especially as a consistent stringer reporter and intern.:  While at a […]

Hillary Accuses Pakistan of Knowing Where Bin Laden Is–Again

Original post at 73wire.com Huh?:  After reporting:  that Hillary promised Pakistan $500 million of additional aid, she turns and accuses someone in the Pakistani government of knowing where Bin Laden is: (video).:  The whole purpose of the aid, according to Hillary is [which has effectively become ‘was,’ as in past tense] to address: Mistrust Earlier, Clinton […]

ABC News: All You Folks Against Illegals Are Raaaaacist

Once again, a media outlet builds a cute little strawman argument regarding the illegal immigration debate. They know they do not have a leg to stand on, and it would not be particularly popular, if they tried their real argument, namely, that they are in favor of saying “screw the law, we want new voters.” […]

Don’t Shed Any Tears For Shirley Sherrod

For those of you unfamiliar with the story, let’s take it from the beginning. The NAACP decided to smear the Tea Party as racists. Like many Americans, Andrew Breitbart didn’t take kindly to something that has become a daily ritual during the Obama Administration — conservatives being falsely denounced as racists. However, unlike most other […]

20 Must Add Conservatives On Twitter

The new hawtness on Twitter, for conservatives at least, is suggesting the “must follow” people everyone should be following on Twitter. Among others, Craft and Matt Lewis have put out lists that have gotten some attention. So, as a conservative Twitter junky, I though it made sense for me to put together my own list […]

Sarah Palin is Pat Buchanan in Drag?

Originally posted at David Horowitz’s NewsReal … “That’s not Sarah Palin. It’s a man, baby!” Is there a new Austin Powers film hitting the theaters? No, that’s just the catty sentiment in Eleanor Clift’s oh so magnanimous Newsweek column welcoming conservative women into the “feminist” fold. And Sarah Palin isn’t just any man: she’s anti-Semitic […]

For The People, By The People: Renee Ellmers (NC-2)

Yesterday morning, I had the chance to speak with Renee Ellmers, who is running for Congress against Bob Etheridge (D-NC), he of man-handling those who dare to question him fame. Or, rather, infamy.:  Etheridge is a clear-cut example of the arrogance of those firmly entrenched in Washington, DC, which is what prompted Renee Ellmers to […]

Nobody Has A “Right” To Charity

Over at the Huffington Post, Kerry Kennedy and Monika Kalra Varma are making a rather bizarre argument about Haiti, The international community too often regards procurement and distribution of basic supplies as charity, but it is wrong. Access to food, water, shelter, education and healthcare are basic human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of […]

Shirley Sherrod Goes Under Obama’s Bus

One more take on the Shirley Sherrod story — because this outrage is too emblematic of the Obama Regime to let his media pals stuff it down the Memory Hole: Now that we have a “post-racial” presidency, the word racism is getting such heavy use that it is literally wearing out, so that people are […]

Pets Subjected to Healthcare Reform

Under Canada’s socialized medicine, you can get faster medical attention at the veterinarian than you can at the hospital. But that won’t happen here. California bureauweenies are seeing to it by imposing “healthcare reform” on pets: Democratic state Assemblyman Dave Jones, who is running for state insurance commissioner in the November election, said some of […]

Journolist: The Consequences

Who didn’t figure the Journolist members colluded on stories, hid information they didn’t want to come to light and generally worked together to serve the liberal greater good? No one. We all figured it was happening. To see the obvious evidence, though, is pretty damning. Question: Will the esteemed journalists on the list report on […]

Obama’s FDR-Like Bait and Switch

Remember when Barack Hussein Obama first became president and the left-wing Old Media universally indulged the claim that he was “just like FDR“? Of late the Old Media has backed off that hyperbolic statement, but at least in a single incident, Obama has proven indeed to be just like FDR. The similarity entails laws about […]

Calif Video: Union Goons Start Pushing and Hitting Videographers

This is how “nurses” act? The kind, gentle folks of the California Nurses Association are seen in this video intimidating, pushing and knocking around some videographers at the union’s recent pro-Democrat rally in California. Mike Griffing is the bearded fellow acting the thug at the end of the video. But he isn’t just some run-of-the-mill […]

Perception vs. Reality

You gotta love how political writers, who see themselves as completely unbiased as Politico writers do, miss the obvious. Taake Mark Penn’s observation on the devastating Obama poll numbers: By far, the most alarming numbers this poll presents for President Barack Obama are the reelection figures; against a generic Republican candidate, he loses by 5 […]

A Seven Item Tea Party Agenda for a GOP House

One of the lines we’ve heard again and again from the Left and even from mediocre Republicans like Bob Bennett and Lindsey Graham is that the Tea Party has no agenda. The idea is supposed to be that the Tea Party is just a bunch of slack-jawed, backwoods hillbillies who are rallying against progress and […]

Shirley Sherrod Resigns After Racist Remarks

So, one of the big stories from Monday was the racist remarks by USDA official Shirley Sherrod to the NAACP, highlighted by Big Government. And now A black USDA official in Georgia has resigned after publicly admitting she didn’t help a white man trying to save his farm to the “full force” of her power […]

‘You’re Too White, Go Back To Europe’

They call ’em the “Tan Klan.” Check the links (via Memeorandum): * “Racist Latino Group Harasses Tea Party: “You’re Too White. Go Back to Europe.” (Video).” * “Latino KKK Member To Tea Partier: “You’re Too White, Go Back To Europe.” * “Racist Mexican Group the “Brown Berets” Chant to Tea Party: “Your White, Go Back […]

WSJ: Obama Presser Highlights Failure Of His Own Policies

How bad are Obama and the Democrats policies for unemployment? This bad Presidents typically invite Americans to appear at Rose Garden press conferences to trumpet their policy successes, but yesterday we saw what may have been a first. President Obama introduced three Americans–an auto worker, a fitness center employee and a woman in real estate–who’ve […]

[UPDATED] Obama’s Insensitive World

Original post at 73wire.com Update below. It’s no secret that President Obama has a golf addiction and that Michelle Obama can officially be called a “golf widow.”:  But the media silence and the left’s defense is rather humorous as golf tends to be an elitist sport–exactly the image the left does not want to portray. […]

Update on Sarah Palin’s 2012 Ground Game!

Last night’s post is here: “Sarah Palin’s 2012 Ground Game.” I need to augment my main suggestion (avoid “The Hillary Complex“) with the additional notation on the use of dictionaries and spellcheck as needed: RELATED: “Palin invents word ‘refudiate,’ compares herself to Shakespeare” (via Memeorandum). Cross-posted from American Power.

Know What’s Awesome? Being Unemployed!

Seriously, that’s the theme of this blog post at Fox News, A growing group of jobless across the nation are joining a self-proclaimed movement: ‘funemployment.’ It’s a group of jovial unemployed who say they’re finally doing what they’ve always wanted to do – whether it is blogging or starting a nonprofit. Christy Annis knows this […]

NAACP Racism

The clip is pretty astounding, listening to this woman, Shirley Sherrod, USDA Georgia Director of Rural Development, confess she would be less likely to help a man — a white man who needed help for his farm — on account of his race. In fact, this makes me sick to my stomach. I’ll let readers […]
