Perhaps it is high time to revamp the 14th Amendment to stop this kind of craziness. It made sense when passed post-Civil War. In today’s society, it needs to have a rider, something like “as of (the date that it is passed), no baby born to non-US citizens shall be granted US citizenship.” A New […]
Who knew? This land-locked throw-back tribal country is sitting on vast wealth. What does it mean? By Melissa Clouthier Well, unless America is willing to go colonial and impose civilization on these folks, it will mean more infighting and civil war. Is this news a way to justify staying in Afghanistan because the president sees […]
Well, professionals know excellence when they see it–even when mistakes are made. But this is an interesting survey: Jim Joyce, the umpire whose missed call deprived Detroit Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga of a perfect game on June 2, is baseball’s best umpire nonetheless, according to an exclusive ESPN The Magazine Baseball Confidential poll of 100 […]
Comedy gold Sunday morning from Obama (that’s when the story was published). Or, should that be, cluelessness, thin skinnedness, and detachedness? Anyhow, via Gateway Pundit, we get a Politicio story, Obama: Gulf spill ‘echoes 9/11’ Sounding reflective as he heads into a bruising electoral season, President Barack Obama told POLITICO columnist Roger Simon that the […]
Most people who read this story probably finished it thinking, “What a decent and: : courageous fellow!” While I’d agree with that sentiment, I took something else away from the story entirely: In nearly 50 years Don Ritchie, 84, has saved at least 160 people at The Gap, a rocky cliff at the entrance to Sydney […]
The aftermath of: the: Obama oil spill or alternately, Obamatrina, has been fascinating to watch. For the first time in recorded memory, we actually have liberals, including Barack Obama, proclaiming that there are limits to what government can accomplish. Can the government create jobs by spending billions we don’t have? Can: it : run the auto […]
South Carolina is starting to become known for wacky political shenanigans. You had Mark Sanford walking the “Appalachian Trail.” Nikki Haley has had two allegations of affairs lodged against her — neither of which the public believed. Then there’s Jake Knotts, the lowlife who was rambling on about Haley being a “raghead” controlled by a […]
The colossal failure that is the obama administration’s reaction to the gulf coast oil spill. You can read more from me at The Liberal Heretic.
First poor Pluto was booted from planet-dom for what I can only assume was size-ism. Now, it has been discovered that science itself is racist. I wonder if we’ll have to change the phrase “the science is settled” to “the racist science is settled”? Good thing we have the NAACP to keep us abreast of […]
This week-end, Paypal dropped the hammer on Atlas Shrugs. Here’s Pamela Geller explaining what happened, The little money that Atlas generates (I have no large donors) is about to be cut off. Apparently the jihad is hard at work trying to kill free speech (and the bus ads and the 911 no mosque movement), preventing […]
A few of the stories that caught my eye over the past week, whether I blogged them or not: Link Link And finally: Link Yeah, this one’s a little shorter than usual, but stay tuned. You never know when the Automotivating bug will hit here at TrogloPundit. Previously: This Week in Automotivators, May 31-June 6 […]
There’s a finite amount of stuff, see, so somehow, someway, we have to distribute it among all the people who want it. Some people believe that having the government do that job will lead to fairness — a highly educated, expert bureaucrat can decide what goes where and when (and, possibly, why) more efficiently than […]
In the week following the Israeli boarding of boats piloted by Turkish “peace activists” off the coast of Gaza Caroline Glick and the good folks at the Hebrew language Israeli news site Latma created a parody video skewering the violent actions perpetrated by those “peace activists” against members of the Israeli authorities attempting to enforce […]
Stogie left a nice compliment yesterday, suggesting that my “posts lately are substance on steroids!” I’m flattered. It’s kinda funny, though, since all I’m really doing sometimes is just putting down what’s on my mind instead of posting what others have written. Anyway, I was thinking of that “steroids” remark just now while reading the […]
A short time ago The Blog That Nobody Reads put up a list of one hundred things that do not make you a better person. We perceived then, and still maintain today, that the need for the list was present, intense and palpable. People nowadays seem to be grasping at straws, trying to find ways […]
Probably not. Since Jerry Brown is a Democrat and Meg Whitman a Republican, all his comment earned was, for the most part, brief blurbs in the California media. Imagine the reverse. That’s right, it would be wall to wall coverage Jerry Brown’s campaign for California governor continues to suffer fallout from off-the-cuff comments he made […]
Some of my blog budds have started a new effort: Save Mosab Yousef: Help Him Stay In The U.S. More at Bob Belvedere’s, “HELP SAVE MOSAB YOUSEF FROM CERTAIN DEATH,” and Steven Givler, “Please Support Mosab Hassan Yousef.” Background at Maggie’s Notebook, “Mosab Hassan Yousef Homeland Security: Homeland Security to Deport Mosab Hassan Yousef,” and […]
I have to say, I find it somewhat amazing to see the sort of campaign videos we’ve been seeing of late. They are hard-nosed, straight-forward, REAL American styled campaign spots. I can’t imagine any time in our past when such hard-core American sentiment would have been evident in campaign commercials like this. Here is one […]
This weekend, Wisconsin Democrats on their way to their state convention may drive right past this billboard, put there by the state GOP: Ha! Get it? Tom Barrett, former congressman and current Mayor of Milwaukee, is the likely Dem nominee for Governor. Us Republicans. We’re funny. There’s a great, big nugget of truth on that […]

Includes insider stuff about Rush’s wedding from guests Sean Hannity and Mark Levin, Glenn Beck’s announcement that he’d discourage his children from joining the U.S. military and more. PLUS: Mark Levin calls […]
The fascist way that the left deals with opinion differing from its own is just one of the many reasons why the left in America today is so hypocritical. Aside from the oppressive aire of our Universities and colleges no better example of the quashing of opposing views can be seen than on Internet message […]
Joseph Carafano of the Heritage Foundation has made an interesting observation and wonders if President Obama is allowing unions to make it harder to effect a timely and effective cleanup of the BP oil spill in the Gulf? The offer of aid from foreign companies has been refused by the Obama administration and the Jones […]
The year: 2006. The State of the Union Address. President Bush began to scold congressional Democrats for refusing to consider changes to a badly unbalanced Social Security program. He said: “Congress did not act last year on my proposal to save Social Security…” And the Democrats interrupted…with cheers! They leaped from their seats, applauding the […]
Something a little lighter for Saturday morning CBS 2’s Tony Aiello learned that lesson Friday as he handled a female snapping turtle for an assignment. The turtle lurched its neck out, reared back, and tried to take a snap at Aiello’s nose. “I’d like to think I have a ‘nose for news,’” Aiello said. “I’m […]
Un-professional, inexperienced, overly-partisan, thin-skinned, clueless, and, of course, a major league whiner. Am I leaving any descriptor out about Obama? He whines like Wayne Gretzky played hockey: no one is better. A bit of video surfaced, due to the pool reporters not being allowed to view this specific conversation, appeared on the White House website […]
Susan Estrich thinks the crop of Republican women winning primaries is problematic because they don’t have enough political experience: Some years ago, the late New York Times and Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist William Safire wrote a great column comparing politicians to plumbers. It was during one of those periods when (like now) experience had become a […]
The clueless SC Democrat machine continues to try and make excuses for how the unknown Alvin Greene got chosen as their US Senate nominee, in spite of the fact that Greene didn’t have any campaign contributions and did no campaigning: What also mystified Democrats across the state is how Greene managed to win without campaigning. […]
The shrieking fairies of the homosexual rights movement must figure that everyone bends over too far to be nice to them for them to maintain their privileged role as put-upon victims. That would explain why they go so far out of their way to infuriate anyone with less patience than a saint. This ought to […]
Government-mandated green energy is wonderful for the crony capitalists at GE, but not so nice for animals. Not only do the hideous windmills sprouting up on our dime hack birds to pieces, now we learn that solar panels kill off the insects fish need for food. Solar panels might be a cornerstone of green energy, […]
What do you do when too many of the sleazy members of your caucus are getting caught with their hands in the cookie jar? If you’re Nancy Pelosi, you try to weaken the ethics rules to keep so many of them from getting busted, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has privately indicated she is willing to […]
