David Leonhardt of the New York Times discovered in a recent column that health care is not a free and unlimited good.: Some way or another, a certain amount of demand will not be met.: People cannot get all that they want because it is a scarce good and is restrained by the same laws […]
Get off my lawn. A 70 year old Carnation, WA homeowner used his handgun to stop a violent home invader. Police say that the 70 year old man was in his home at about 6 AM when he heard someone lurking outside his home. The homeower reportedly went to the door to investigate, at which […]
Sadly, wishing for the death of a political opponent is so typical of the left. Pol Pot, Stalin, the Democrat sponsored KKK, the chief tool used by such folks has been terror and violence. While obviously not as murderous as the aforementioned, unions have also been a violent force in history. And in New Jersey, […]
Our condolences to the family and countrymen of a good friend of democracy in general and the U.S. in particular, Lech Kaczynski, president of Poland. Kaczynski died along with 80 some others in a plane crash at an airport near the city of Smolensk near the Belarus border. Kaczynski was one of the heroes of […]
Who better to take on the Living Breathing Audacity of Hope, than some guy with a Blog That Nobody Reads who has the audacity to quote himself? Me: Intellectualism has become the readiness, willingness and ability to call dangerous things safe, and safe things dangerous. Me, again: When an education has given you the ability […]
You remember Amnesty International and their support of Islamic Jihad, right? Here’s the latest from these big government Nanny State socialists The U.S. government and Gulf Coast states have consistently violated the human rights of hurricane victims since Hurricane Katrina killed about 1,800 people and caused widespread devastation after striking in August 2005, Amnesty International […]
Indiana Right to Life PAC just announced that they are now barring the endorsement of Democratic candidates. “Our leadership anguished over this decision,” notes IRTL-PAC chairman Mike Fichter. “Had Democrats like Brad Ellsworth held firm in opposing federal funding for abortion in the health care bill, we likely would have rewarded such action with a […]
It’s been about three years since I first heard the name Sarah Palin. I remember my Human Events co-worker, John Gizzi, opining on the former Alaska Governor’s long shot chances at the Vice-Presidency in early 2008. She wasn’t even really on the short list.: Then, I heard she was pregnant and completely ruled her out […]
It sure seems like Rick Perry is running for President, or better yet, Vice President. He gave an enthusiastic speech that roused the crowd in a major way. Part of the reason I came to the Southern Republican Leadership Council is to see Sarah Palin alongside other candidates and good political speakers. She introduced Perry […]
Margot Magowan a blogger for the San Francisco Chronicle must have gone to college. I say that not because she seems so well educated, but because she seems to hate traditional gender roles. After all, the only place that women become radical feminists is in college because the real world does not teach such balderdash. […]
Rock on, gal (via Texans For Sarah Palin): Michelle Malkin has more on Sarah Palin’s speech at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, as well as a reminder of President Obama’s nuclear ignorance (something he accused Palin of yesterday). Update: The Right Scoop has the full video of Palin’s speech. Cross-posted from the Sister Toldjah blog.
Increasingly, elected politicians are just figureheads. The real power festers in a vast and ever-expanding swamp known as the federal bureaucracy, which crawls with faceless, unelected petty tyrants who are choking the life out of our once-free nation. The most tyrannical among them can be found at the EPA, which recently issued outlandish new edicts […]
The Hill Newspaper is reporting that unions are “amping up” for a battle against America’s big banks when Congress is next in session. Uniopns want Congress to institute financial regulatory reform because they feel that banks need to be “held accountable.” The first thought that comes to mind is to wonder when Congress will ever […]
Not long ago Andrew Breitbart issued a challenge to the anti-tea party left to show proof that the “N” word was thrown at black members of Congress by Tea Party protesters in their walk to Congress just prior to their passage on Obamacare. In fact, Breitbart has offered $100,000 for video or audio proof of […]
Bart Stupak will slither away rather than face the wrath of the voters he betrayed. Here’s how the left is trying to spin the situation: Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) plans to announce his retirement today, Democrats briefed on his decision said. Stupak, the leader of a pro-life faction within his party, had received death threats […]
While the left and the media make a big deal out of a whole lot of nothing with Gov. McDonnell of Virginia and this Confederacy History month issue, maybe we should stop trying to score political points about the past, and focus on the present. Slavery is a stain on our nation’s past. We all […]
For those of you who don’t subject yourselves to the horror known as reality television, there is a show on Viacom’s MTv station, called “16 and Pregnant.” I have issues with the show, not the least of which is that it is a form of exploitation of teen girls— pregnant teen girls, to boot. Pregsploitation, […]
There are many reasons why certain Hollywood celebs should act more like children, and simply be seen, not heard. Here’s one of them, courtesy of Megan Fox Hot for Teachers w/ Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green from Megan Fox As Allah points out, no mention of the crippling union requirements. No mention of the […]
Getting government spending under control, like securing the border, is something “everyone” supposedly agrees on. Whether they’re liberal, conservative, Republican, Democrat — it doesn’t matter — every politician insists: he’s: : the one you can trust on the budget. Yet, what do we get in practice? Bad (The Republicans) and much, much, much worse (The Democrats). […]
A palate cleanser to start your Friday off the right way. Namely, liberals losing all their marbles over a story: Alleged Aggie Doctor Brags Of Firing Obama-Voting Employee The TexAgs political message board is probably not the best place to go for nuanced, sophisticated discussion of the day’s issues, unless you think Fox News is […]
What follows are the best quotations from Ann Coulter’s 2009 columns. Enjoy! When the Obama family materialized, the media was seized by a mass psychosis that hadn’t been witnessed since Beatlemania. OK! magazine raved that the Obamas “are such an all-American family that they almost make the Brady Bunch look dysfunctional.” Yes, who can forget […]
Okay, it’s time to update my coverage on the WikiLeaks story. I especially want to emphasize some context that might otherwise get overlooked as developments continue. As I first reported, Julian Assange is a convicted computer hacker and communist activist. His agenda is nothing short of a worldwide delegitimation and destabilization program of the U.S. […]
The pedo priests are trying to cover up the number of LITTLE GIRLS they have molested too, as if that doesn’t matter as much as what happens to boys. Trust me, the number of girls raped and molested by priests is at least double the boys. They are trying to cover it all up so […]
Actually, I think I’ll say “Liar, Liar, Skirt on fire” just to tick off her feminist sensibilities.: Debbie Wasserman Schultz is a huge liar. Yes, a liar. In the video clip below, she blatantly lies and says that the health care bill, which she voted for, does not require mandatory insurance. This is an outright […]
Senator Patty Murray (D, Wa) doesn’t want to hear from her constituents if they are upset at her vote for Obama’s take over of our nation’s healthcare. One voter in particular has earned Murray’s ire. He has almost daily called Murray’s offices and in no uncertain terms informed the Senator that he hates her healthcare […]
Remember when liberals screeched themselves hoarse in righteous indignation because Bush had authorized listening in on the overseas phone calls of Al Qaeda operatives? Good thing W didn’t try implementing something like this — from Salon yesterday: In late January, I wrote about the Obama administration’s “presidential assassination program,” whereby American citizens are targeted for […]
…every state that was in the confederacy should have one in my opinion. It’s an important part of the history of those states and most importantly, the Southern soldiers who honorably fought and died defending their homes in the Civil War deserve to be honored just as much as those who died in every other […]
Yesterday long-time Chairman of the Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan was called before Congressional bureauweenies to be scapegoated for the financial crisis they caused. But he turned the tables on them, pointing out the obvious by laying blame for the crisis on international economic forces that were pouring money into the U.S. real-estate market, as well […]
You remember the story of the Grasshopper and the Ant? Once there lived an ant and a grasshopper in a grassy meadow. All day long the ant would work hard, collecting grains of wheat from the farmer’s field far away. She would hurry to the field every morning, as soon as it was light enough […]
Bill White’s solutions to education includes targeting homeschoolers. Not a good idea. From Right In Texas: (emphasis mine) White says, “Perry’s claim of 10 percent dropout rate does not include students who continue in school, switch to home schooling, or have no follow up data. These students are not tracked, and the governor does not […]
