Senate Democrats target pay of health insurance executives: Senate Democrats will offer an amendment this weekend to curb the pay of executives at health insurance companies that benefit from federal subsidies, fueling the growing feud with the powerful industry. Sens. Blanche Lincoln (D-Ark.), Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.) and Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) have sponsored an amendment that […]
I’ve been wondering when this part of the Khalid Sheik Mohammed story was going to get a little air ever since I heard them interviewing one of the members of his “dream team,” Scott Fenstermaker, on the radio. Ed Morrissey is very smart, but he’s missing something here about Fenstermaker: He is very, very stupid. […]
For good or bad, when Sarah is speaking, everyone wants to be there, even the media Sarah Palin’s 11-minute speech before Washington’s Gridiron Club at its Winter Dinne tossed a few barbs at the gathering of journalists, who she compared to “death panels.” “Sometimes you got to trust your instincts, and if you don’t, you […]
Breaking extension to earlier post! Via Gateway Pundit! Barack Obama’s Safe Schools Czar Kevin Jennings founded the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN). Recently he was appointed by the Obama administration to run the Office of Safe & Drug Free Schools in the US Department of Education. In 2007 Kevin Jennings was paid $273,573.96 […]
by Maggie at Maggie’s Notebook and Stop the ACLU: Kevin Jennings, Barack Obama’s failed “safe school czar” has a recommended reading list for children of all ages. What has been revealed is sick and perverted, and until you read this, you simply cannot image what Jennings recommends as appropriate for school children in this country. […]
My new Talk Radio Watch column is now up at WND. Is Rush Limbaugh getting married? Is Glenn Beck the answer to some conservatives’ prayers? Find out all the latest, listen to Mark Levin‘s real-time commentary on Obama‘s Afghanistan speech, and lots more HERE. Here’s some stuff that didn’t make it into the column… “Radio […]
The photo shows one of the many HOT signs from yesterday’s Orange County tea party protest against House Speaker Nance Pelosi. See especially, “Tea Party America’s Christmas Wish List: ‘Kiss My Astroturf’ – STOP Health-Care Take-Over, and More!!
Well that’s interesting. (CNN) — Music from late rapper Tupac Shakur has been included as part of the Vatican’s official MySpace Music playlist. …”The genres are very different from each other, but all these artists share the aim to reach the heart of good minded people,” the Vatican wrote on its official MySpace Music page.

Headline: Unemployment Rate Falls to 10%. Unemployment is down! Hip hip…oh, no, wait, it’s still at 10%. Holy crap. And this is the good news? And…is it really the good news? Here’s the story from the Wall Street Journal: U.S. job losses in November posted the smallest drop since the start of the recession and […]
One of the very first things covered by President Obama during His inaugural speech was the “fact,” if you call it that, that forty-four Americans have now taken the Presidential oath of office. He got that one wrong, but the fact-checkers didn’t catch it because they were too busy screening Saturday Night Live skits. But […]
No, my post title does not mean I’ve gone off my rocker and started supporting Kevin Jennings in his role as Safe Schools Czar. Thanks to Terresa Monroe’s hard work, I’ve known for months exactly what kind of person Kevin Jennings, the “Safe School Czar” is. He’s a career gay man who is devoted to […]
It’s a new rule of thumb, apparently, that history doesn’t matter. Fall of Rome? Who cares? WWII? What’s it matter? The Great Depression? Just a blip. It’s NOW that we care about, man. All that history stuff? Pffft. If it isn’t happening now, it doesn’t matter. This notion that history is for the stuffed shirts […]
And, of course, make it All About Barry. Starting with his crappy policies (which he, if you remember, outsourced to Congress) So, it is true that we, as a country, are in a very different place than we were when 2009 began. Because of the Recovery Act and a number of other steps we’ve taken, […]
I’ve often wondered what it would take to disgust even the moonbats running the San Franfreakshow Comical. Thanks to the gut-wrenchingly repulsive activities on display during the Folsom Street Fair, I finally know: Public sex tents? Now there’s an idea that should have been shot down the second it was announced from the mouth of […]
There’s more to soft totalitarianism than forbidding things. That which is not forbidden must be made mandatory. Take walking your dog, for example. Bureaucrats can’t find a reason to forbid it. Therefore, in Australia they are pushing a law to make it illegal not to walk your dog: PET owners could be punished for not […]
It never ceases to amaze me how differently the Old Media treats Republican presidents compared to how they treat Democrat Presidents during times of unemployment reporting. Today, in the vaunted era of Obama, the unemployment numbers for November 2009 have come out and it shows some of the highest unemployment numbers since the Great Depression. […]
Courtesy of the fine folks at Snapped Shot, I’d like to point you towards what may be the greatest invention ever actually created by mankind. Sure, it falls short of the ray gun, the Terminator, and the Death Star, but those have only been dreamt of, while this product is actually available on Amazon for […]
Barack Obama is a bumbling, empty-headed, arrogant, dangerous, ultra left-wing statist who’s doing crippling damage to our country. There’s very little good to be said about the man — which, is why there’s really no need to stretch to be offended by stories like this one: When President Obama spoke to troops at Alaska’s Elmendorf […]
I suppose you have heard by now that on the night of Pres. Obama’s Afghanistan speech given at West Point, Chris Matthews of MSNBC said on air that he found it interesting that Obama had made the decision to speak at “the enemy camp.” It was a despicable thing to say, but coming from “a […]
The Politico asks the question, “Have the Greens Failed?” After some yammer about reducing CO2 output, we get Yet as green activists converge on the 15th United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, their sense of disappointment is palpable, even with the eleventh-hour decision by President Obama to attend the summit on Dec. 9. What […]
Florida is right now at the vanguard of a new railroad project that could bring good news to those that care about solving bloated state budgets, common sense employment laws, and cutting the corruption that comes with unions by pushing for a non-union workforce with its proposed intrastate rail system. And the unions are incensed, […]
This is the kind of issue that, if the GOP leadership was smart, will very shortly be showing up in commercials and talking points from now till the 2010 elections In the first showdown over the Senate health care bill, Democrats on Thursday successfully defended more than $400 billion in Medicare cuts, turning back a […]
According to Rasumssen, when it come to the topic global warming a majority of Americans don’t believe that to be true: Most Americans (52%) believe that there continues to be significant disagreement within the scientific community over global warming. While many advocates of aggressive policy responses to global warming say a consensus exists, the latest […]
“Here’s a guy without much experience, who campaigned against much of what we put in place … and who now travels around the world apologizing. I think our adversaries – especially when that’s preceded by a deep bow … – see that as a sign of weakness.” — Dick Cheney (The federal government is) “doing […]
That would be the 90th Fighter Squadron, known as the “Dicemen,” and the 525th Fighter Squadron, the “Bulldogs,” both of which operate the F-22 When President Obama spoke to troops at Alaska’s Elmendorf Air Force Base last month, the unit there parked a shiny new F-22 fighter plane in the hangar. But according to multiple […]
With President Obama carrying on his “jobs summit” this week blaming business for “not hiring enough workers,” it is interesting to see the reaction of at least one major U.S. business to the Obama administration’s actions during this economic downturn. On November 11, David N. Farr, Chairman, CEO and President of Emerson Electric Co., announced […]
Well, Illinois voter, say you go to the polls and you decide you don’t like any of the candidates for lt. governor or secretary of state but you are all fired up about your choice for governor. So, you just don’t want to vote for the ones you don’t like but you darn sure want […]
The liberal line on Obamacare is that despite the fact that it’s unpopular with the public and won’t start paying off until 2014, the smart political move is for Democrats to vote for it. So, how is that theory working out so far for Blanche Lincoln, who’s up for reelection next year? According to Rasmussen […]
