Role of ACLU Decisive in Moving KSM Trial to New York

Originally written for PJM: Crossposted from STACLU: Eric Holder called his decision to try the suspected plotters of 9/11 in New York City “the toughest decision I’ve had to make as attorney general.” It was unarguably the most controversial one. In my opinion, it was also the stupidest one. The decision has rightly received plenty […]

Why Conservatives Have Trouble Getting Elected

The reasons that I could never get elected to any government position is the same reason why conservatives have a tough time getting elected and, if they end up elected, can’t govern in this era of the ill-educated voter.

This Week In Quotes: Nov 20 – Nov 26

Whatever is number three is far behind. — Michael Barone What a good country or a good […]

Black Friday Launches Amid Consumer Retreat: Green Groups Seek to Shut Down Shopping; Wall Street Eyes Markets!

My wife and oldest boy went shopping at midnight last night. It turns out the much heralded “Black Friday” launch of the holiday shopping season kicked off at midnight Friday morning at Wal-Mart stores around the country. (Wal-Mart stores actually stayed open 24-hours, kind of like a preemptive strike against other merchants. Not far behind, […]

Another Obama Gitmo Official Resigns in Obama Smoke Screen Effort

Earlier this month President Obama fired Greg Craig, his main counsel on matters concerning the Guantanamo Bay Facility — unless, of course, you really believe the claim that Craig resigned. And this week Obama sheds another one of his GITMO team with the resignation of Deputy Assistant Secretary for Defense for Detainee Policy Phillip Carter. […]

Science Czar John Holdren Involved in ClimateGate

By now you don’t have to be a cynic not to be surprised that Chairman Zero’s Science Czar John Holdren — a totalitarian leftist who believes in forced abortion and has suggested putting sterilants in our drinking water — is implicated in ClimateGate, which has revealed the global warming crisis to be not only a […]

Brazil’s da Silva Demands Free Money From “Gringos”

The “make someone else pay for all the things I want” mentality that characterizes the base of our Community Organizer in Chief seems to have taken root in Brazil, where moonbat president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has announced that “gringos” should give South Americans free money in the name of the discredited global warming […]

Today’s Girly Man Whine Courtesy Of E.J. Dionne, Jr.

If it’s Thanksgiving, must be just another day to whine about how meanly Barry Obama is being treated It’s now official: So in vogue are attacks on President Obama that even his proclamation calling the nation to a day of Thanksgiving has become the focus of criticism.

Is Cap And Trade Actually Dead?

The notion that global warming is caused by Mankind is certainly dead after ClimateGate, followed by the issues in New Zealand, and surely more to come. Scientists of all stripes, along with members of the media and academia, are feeling much freer this year to speak their minds and publish their dissent. Climate alarmists are […]

Palin / Bachman To Headline National Tea Party Event

Hmm. CNN claims to have confirmed Sarah Palin’s role as keynote for a Nashville-based Tea Party event in February. The conference is: being dubbed the first National Tea Party event. Formally speaking, perhaps. Though I suspect many who went to Washington’s protest: might disagree. But this is being called a convention. Very interesting as they are both […]

Libertarian and Liberal Thanksgivings

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Usually I try to keep this day as a non-partisan, non-political day in which I wish everyone of every ideological persuasion the blessings of the day (and I still do!). But as it happens, the day provided me with one of the best examples of the differences between libertarians and liberals I’ve […]

Global Warming… is Dead. Soon to Follow: Mainstream Media

“The lack of media attention to this so called “climategate” is unbelievable. I do not even know if we can even call it “climategate”, as nobody seems to acknowledge that it has happened. Of course Fox News has brought it up, as well as numerous talk show hosts but, there has been no trace of […]

Warmists Caught Fudging Data in New Zealand

Global warming is manmade, all right. It’s made by men in lab coats who angle for government grants by fudging the data. Right on the heels of ClimateGate we have this news from New Zealand: The New Zealand Government’s chief climate advisory unit NIWA is under fire for allegedly massaging raw climate data to show […]

Great News! President Obama and Prime Minister Singh Were ‘Never in Any Danger’ – Yeah, Lucky Tareq and Michaele Salahi Weren’t Jihadis!

You can’t have a bigger security breach, and if this were a Republican White House the press would be hammering the administration for it’s near-catastrophic security lapse, but there’s almost a breathless fawning over Michaele and Tareq Salahi, who crashed the White House state dinner on Tuesday night. See the New York Times, “At the […]
