The United States has always had the best weapons systems in the world. The billions of dollars spent in the Department of Defense have insured America’s dominance in this field. Currently, two systems are being tested that I find simply amazing. The first one is lasers. The Air Force recently test-fired its Advanced Tactical Laser […]
This time last year, I was told that once in office, President Barack Hussein Obama was going bring peace, prosperity, and all things warm and fuzzy to our beloved planet earth. All the national and international turmoil occurring at the time could be attributed solely to President Bush, a.k.a. the anti-Christ, including our two wars […]
Warner Todd Huston, my colleague at Right Wing News, has written an important analysis of the challenges for the tea party movement in 2010. See, “Tea Parties: The Biggest Mistake We’ll Make in 2010.” I’m especially interested in this passage: There was no unifying single goal of the Tea Partiers and no agency or party […]
It’s the end of 2009, the “aughts” are over, and we are about to embark on a new year — and what else are they but the “aughts”? Well, besides mostly a horrible and thankfully passed decade. In any case, we are at the end of the year and that means two things: lists about […]
Moonbats had hoped Copenhagen would mean economically crippling Western Civilization. Instead, they had to settle for stealing $billions upon $billions from taxpayers on behalf of Third World dictators. But we’re hardly out of the woods when it comes to the profound threat to society posed by environmental extremism. Our rulers are using the EPA to […]
It will take more than Muslims repeatedly attempting to blow up airliners full of innocent Westerners to put an end to the multicultural moonbattery we’ve been using to slit our own throats. The latest outrage from Britainistan: An asylum seeker who ran over a girl of 12 and left her to die has won his […]
When people read something like what Donald Sensing wrote and believe it is true….: In announcing the pending charges against Schuringa the Justice Department spokesman said that after being treated for his burns, Abdulmutallab told a federal agent that Schuringa had slugged him in the mouth. Abdulmutallab pointed to his swollen lip as evidence of […]
Five years ago, there was much bellyaching in the media about how the callousness of the President of the United States for not making a public statement about the tsunami that killed hundreds of thousands, displaced an equal number (if not more) and causes untold damage to property and the landscape, even changing the coastline […]
I think a lot of mistresses will be happy with this new policy: Unwed heterosexual couples in the Foreign Service are seeking the same family benefits extended this year to homosexual couples, U.S. officials said. In June, President Barack Obama gave homosexual spouses of federal employees the same family benefits — minus health insurance and […]
Proves they know squat about blogs. And they’re partisan in the extreme. One conservative blog: The Bleat by James Lileks.
A student in New York has had enough of the one sided climate alarmism A Rhinebeck High School sophomore is urging the school district to require alternative views be presented by teachers on controversial topics like climate change. Michelle Dewkett said the global warming documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” was being shown in science and English […]
Time Magazine reported that President Obama and his family didn’t attend a church service this Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. He is, to my knowledge, the first president to skip a Christmas Eve service for a long, long time. But, while it is interesting to note that Obama is quite unchurched in a position where […]
My latest American Spectator column: When Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab tried to detonate an explosive aboard Northwest Airlines Flight 253 on Christmas Day, liberals were quick to warn against the clear and present danger. It wasn’t the threat of al Qaeda-trained bombers blowing up Detroit-bound planes that concerned them. Rather, liberals feared that Americans might blame […]
* Electing the first black man as POTUS? A great moment? Yes. That man’s actual performance as President? One of America’s worst moments. * Barack Obama reminds me of Lenin. I wonder how many liberals secretly take that as a compliment. * One thing I admire about Hogwarts: They really stretch and challenge the kids […]
Percy Sutton, long-time Borough President of Manhattan passed away this week at 89. Sutton is famous for being Malcolm X’s lawyer and a powerful New York politician but he was also a member of the famed Tuskegee Airmen, a radio pioneer, and a civil rights activist. There is one more little thing that Sutton is […]
I bet you didn’t know that presidential vacations are actually interrupted by the news, and having to make decisions and listen to briefings. I know I sure didn’t know that from January 2001 through January 19th, 2009, because the State Run Media never told me. Headline: News Interrupts Obama’s Hawaii Vacation. No, seriously. I’m actually […]
While I was away, there was one particular piece that really caught my eye and surprisingly, it was by the most tedious, overrated columnist in America: Maureen Dowd. Ok, you got me — Paul Krugman is actually the most tedious, overrated columnist in America, but Modo is definitely top 5. Anyway, it was a bit […]
One of the advantages of selecting 7 videos a day to put up on Viral Footage is that I’ve had a chance to look at the very best videos the web has to offer each day. Here are my 25 faves of 2009. 25) Surprised Kitty 24) FOAR EVERYWUN FRUM BOXXY 23) The Obama Stimulus: […]
On Wednesday, I’m going to be listing my favorite quotes of 2009. If you have some you’d like to suggest, how about doing it here, in this thread. If they’re good enough, they’ll make the list.
Alternate headline: Blogger sees Democrats pulling facial muscles trying not to laugh. The story: WASHINGTON — Republican senators attacking the cost of a Democratic health care bill showed far different concerns six years ago, when they approved a major Medicare expansion that has added tens of billions of dollars to federal deficits. Medicare Part D: […]
Hi guys! I know, it’s the weekend and I’m usually not blogging here and taking a vacation and whatever. Not today. Too much going on. Here’s some of what I’ve written: Americans, You’re On Your Own Obama Keeps Congress In The Dark In The War On Terror Napolitano and TSA Priorities Finally, TSA: It’s Called […]
Long time Democratic Chicago Pol Monique Davis hasn’t paid the rent for her offices since 2002. Apparently it doesn’t matter either. After all, she’s a Chicago Democrat and the rules real people have to live by don’t apply to a Chicago Democrat. And like a true Democrat Davis is blaming everyone else. It isn’t her […]
From the Los Angeles Times, “Deaths reported amid chaos and violence in Iran“: The Iranian capital erupted in massive and fiery morning-to-dusk protests as tens of thousands of demonstrators clashed with security forces on the occasion of an important Shiite Muslim holiday. Several witnesses told The Times that Iranian security forces opened fire with live […]
She’s pathetic.
Aren’t you thrilled? In the wake of the terrorism attempt Friday on a Northwest Airlines flight, federal officials on Saturday imposed new restrictions on travelers that could lengthen lines at airports and limit the ability of international passengers to move about an airplane. The government was vague about the steps it was taking, saying that […]
I just returned from seeing Disney’s latest release, The Princess and the Frog. Looked at purely from an entertainment standpoint, the movie is a delight. The hand drawn animation is imaginative and, at times, exquisitely beautiful. When the Bayou lights up at sunset with fireflies, every little girl in the audience emits a rapturous “oooooh.” […]
William Jacobson wrote an important post this morning on the leftist reaction to the attempted bombing of Northwest Airlines 253. See, “Terrorist Attacks Plane, Think Progress Attacks Pete Hoekstra.” Checking William’s essay we find that the first reaction of radical bloggers is to deny conservatives a partisan advantage on national security. Steve Benen’s entry was […]
Yes, we’re talking about Charlie Sheen, who got arrested on Christmas morning in Aspen after: police say he got: into a fight with his wife, who reportedly blew a .13 on her Breathalyzer test. Heck of a way for the mother of infant twins to celebrate the holidays, huh? But remember: that: this is: a woman who had the questionable […]
Get the pity party violin music warmed up because Ezra Klein and Dave Weigel are whining that Sarah Palin has forced them, the press, into a “submissive role” because she is so mean to them. Klein favorably cites the analysis of Weigel who whined that the “Palin problem” has “put the press in a submissive […]
Chicago Mayor Richard Daley’s brother, William, is warning the Democratic Party that it is going too far left and will end up “in the wilderness” in 2010. William Daley has been a longtime political operative that has been connected with the Clintons for many years but that doesn’t make him an extremist lefty, apparently… at […]
