Blanche Lincoln To Obama: You Don’t Even Know What A Payroll Is

Of course, Blanche is facing some serious issues in her re-election bid, no thanks to hitching her star and votes to President Neverhadarealjob, but, she looks to be taking the politically expedient route to the hearts of her constituents Lincoln, who faces a tough reelection fight, asked Obama to push back against “people at the […]

IRS Acquiring Short-Barrel Shotguns

Already our economy is staggering under the weight of taxation. But if we are to make even a dent in the bills Comrade Obama is running up with his ongoing looting spree, tax rates will have to shoot through the stratosphere. Eventually confiscatory taxation will become so outrageous that people will begin to remember that […]

Obama May Turn Over Keys to the Internet to Hostile Powers

Jimmy Carter’s signature achievement was throwing away strategically vital control of the Panama Canal, which America built. Chairman Zero can match that easily — by throwing away the Internet: Without the ingenuity of America’s brightest minds and the investment of U.S. taxpayer dollars, there would be no Internet, as we now know it today. Now, […]

Are We Safe?

A few days ago I wrote that I hoped that not interrogating the Christmas Day bomber properly wouldn’t end up being the worst mistake of the Obama administration. I always felt that since Obama made the decision to listen to his Generals and deploy thousands of troops to Afghanistan, and to commit to the drones […]

Illinois Shows Limitations of Tea Party Movement

The Tea Party folks keep getting mad at me for saying that in the end they might prove ineffective in races at levels higher than local because they aren’t organized enough. They puff up their chests proudly proclaiming that they intend to resist being organized and they claim that being organized is precisely what they […]

Iran Launches Worms Into Space

So they tell us In what seemed designed as a display of advancing missile technology, Iran said on Wednesday that it had test-fired a rocket into space carrying living organisms – a rat, two turtles and worms, according to the official Press TV broadcaster. The launch of what was described as a Kavoshgar-3 missile, capable […]

Antimilitary Moonbat Ted Rall Headed to Afghanistan

Moonbats are always willing to believe the worst of our troops. For example, liberal icon Keith Olbermann led his viewers to think that former Arizona Cardinal Pat Tillman was killed by friendly fire deliberately, supposedly for supporting Hanoi John Kerry. But deep down, they know who the good guys are. Otherwise why would antimilitary moonbat […]

Obama Shouldn’t Fire Rahm Emanuel For Saying “Retarded.”

Ironically, after my last post, I’m going to have to…shudder — defend Rahm Emanuel — and disagree with Sarah Palin’s latest comments. I would ask the president to show decency in this process by eliminating one member of that inner circle, Mr. Rahm Emanuel, and not allow Rahm’s continued indecent tactics to cloud efforts. Yes, […]

Where’s the Outrage: 1 Year Later, Gitmo Not Closed

One of the first things that Barack Obama did after being swept into office on the wings of “hopenchange” was to sign an executive order that would close the terrorist detainee facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. President Obama gave a one-year deadline after which he triumphantly informed us the facility would be closed. Well, we […]

George Moonbat Issues Fatwa Against Tony Blair

Even otherwise liberal Tony Blair has one redeeming quality: he stood with civilization against the genocidal socialist dictator Saddam Hussein and his progressive fellow travelers. That’s why George Monbiot — whose name may have given us the word moonbat — has launched a website called Arrest Blair, where he calls upon his fellow kooks to […]

Obama: No More Mr. Nice Guy?

Well, he was nice to the world tyrants (still is–note the silence on the hangings in Iran). He’s not so hip on America. But meeting with the Dalai Lama is symbolic, I guess, of some new toughness. Meh. On Friday the Obama administration signed off on a $6.4 billion (:£4 billion) arms package for Taiwan. […]

Obama Budget Will Increase Your Taxes And Costs

So says those ultra-far right kooks at ABC News While President Barack Obama is proposing to cut some taxes for companies that hire workers, his budget would raise a host of other taxes on businesses and wealthy individuals. The budget proposal released Monday would extend Obama’s signature Making Work Pay tax credit – $400 for […]

Seven Huge Flaws in the Way Liberals Think

1) Liberals believe they can change human nature. Sure, human beings can be shaped and molded to a certain extent. Any parent who has spanked a child can tell you that. However, most people care more about what they’re having for lunch today than an earthquake that kills ten thousand people on the other side […]

“Saved By Her Enemy”

Imagine if everything you thought about the world was wrong. Imagine if you discovered that the United States wasn’t a superpower, the media had lied to you about the world, other countries, war, and that our President wasn’t the leader of the free world. Imagine that you realize that the truth has always been hidden […]

U.S. Prosecutor Recuses Himself in James O’Keefe Case

At Fox News, “U.S. Attorney Steps Down From O’Keefe Case.” (Via Memeorandum.) Also, from the Times-Picayune, “U.S. Attorney Jim Letten Recuses Himself From Landrieu Phone Tampering Case.” (Via Patterico.) Also, James O’Keefe’s interview on Hannity, “The People’s Office.” Meanwhile, Marcy Wheeler keeps it up with the sexualized slanders, “TeaBugger Victimology.” And you gotta notice the […]

GOP Should Embrace “Party Of ‘No’”

In the ’60s and ’70s when leftist anti-war protesters began calling the police “pigs”, police forces turned the tables and defined the epithet as “Pride, Integrity, Guts” thereby taking ownership of it. The GOP should take ownership of the “Party of ‘No’”. Why? Because sometimes – in fact, many times – saying “no” to the […]

The Obama Administration Is Creating Political Instability

Thomas Friedman, in one of his more obtuse moments, is completely misreading the gossip he’s hearing at the Davos World Economic Forum: As a political barometer, the Davos World Economic Forum usually offers up some revealing indicators of the global mood, and this year is no exception. I heard of a phrase being bandied about […]

Why Isn’t There A Lightbulb Going Off In Frank Rich’s Head?

What is the definition of crazy? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Liberalism has more in common with a religious doctrine than a political philosophy because it simply does not change over time. This obnoxious Frank Rich column is the latest evidence of that. Read this paragraph from Rich’s […]

Mr. President, Listen To The People

I know that the liberal belief is that they know better than we do. That has been clear with this administration. It’s time for Obama to learn from his mistakes. When all is said and done with the Obama administration, one can only hope that his biggest mistake was focusing on the health care bill […]

Obama’s Aide David Axelrod, Portrait of a Demagogue

This weekend Obama adviser David Axelrod gave us a perfect example of the art of empty demagoguery. Comments made by Axelrod concerning Obama’s state of the union speech shows an over statement meant to mask the truth in order to evoke sympathy for his boss, the President. Sadly, the truth is the victim here. The […]

Illinois: Why Government Cannot be Trusted

Government is often called the “necessary evil.” But whatever it is, as each day passes we see that the “evil” part of that axiom seems ever more true. We can see the pernicious qualities of government at every level from local, to the state, to the era of Obamaism in the federal government. But if […]
