Wow. Want to participate in this map? Go to the link and send your information. Here’s my contribution via a reader on Twitter who pointed to me this from Doubleplusundead: Well, lookie here. Sure enough, the O-bots are claiming that five jobs were saved in the 14th MO Congressional District. Only problem? Missouri only has […]
Having been on the road a lot lately, I’ve had little time to keep track of the psycho-dramatic peregrinations of Andrew Sullivan. One of the most hysterically laughable aspects of Sully’s recent blogging is how he engages in psychological projection, accusing others of his own most obvious faults, to wit: I’ve heard it before from […]
No good deed goes unpunished, in a country dominated by Comrade Obama’s union cronies: In pursuit of an Eagle Scout badge, Kevin Anderson, 17, has toiled for more than 200 hours over several weeks to clear a walking path in an east Allentown park. Little did the do-gooder know that his altruistic act would put […]
So much for people being judged by the content of their character. Our president was chosen primarily for his skin color; U.S. District Judge Ivan L.R. Lemelle in Louisiana has ruled that the same should hold true for school board members: A federal judge ordered the Tangipahoa Parish School Board this week to hire qualified […]
The jealous ovary hater Andrew Sullivan froths again. Sarah Palin must be peeking her head out of Alaska and Facebook. How DARE she?! Still, I can’t help but imagining the envy among fellow Republicans. Rick Perry spouting about Obama’s socialism won’t get the press that Sarah Palin’s discussion about anything will get. And still Sarah […]
* Politics today: Figure out how they’re lying to you. Figure out who really benefits. Figure out how to get them to listen * Healthcare reform has very little to do w/ improving healthcare & a lot to do w/ giving gov’t more control of people’s lives. * Charlie Crist’s only hope of winning a […]
If it is a day ending in a “y,” it must be a day for climahysteria (via The Clamour Of The Times) Scientists will this week warn that Italy may be forced to import the basic ingredients for pasta, its national food, because climate change will make it impossible to grow durum wheat. In a […]
I’ve written about this before [read here] and received this comment today from Rita Banerji: I lived in the U.S. for many years and I was and am still pro-choice. Yet, when I returned to India as an adult even my pro-choice mind could not comprehend the absolute horror of the fact that in less […]
I suppose when you are used to the press treating you like you are a barely teenaged Disney TV star, you get a bit snippy when they ask you tough questions President Barack Obama made no effort to conceal his irritation when his press corps used the first question of his maiden Far East trip […]
The fine folks over at FreedomWorks brought me in to do a speech at a rally in Raleigh, NC last week-end. I drove down on Friday and that night, my pal Lorie Byrd picked me up at the hotel and took me over to a BBQ place where FreedomWorks was holding a little shindig for […]
Editorializing yesterday, the New York Times says: Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. took a bold and principled step on Friday toward repairing the damage wrought by former President George W. Bush with his decision to discard the nation’s well-established systems of civilian and military justice in the treatment of detainees captured in antiterrorist operations. From […]
Believers in the Second Amendment have much to be happy about, even with having a strongly anti-2nd president in power, and a party in control of Congress that traditionally doesn’t respect the 2nd Amendment. Not only have pro-2nd activists generally held the line on rights, they’ve expanded them in some cases. Obviously we had the […]
Wonders never cease! From the Los Angeles Times, “Billy Carter’s Old Gas Station: A National Monument?“: In the age of the $787-billion stimulus package, it is, perhaps, a modest question: Should the American taxpayer foot the bill to enshrine the gas station run by the late Billy Carter — the beer-swilling, wisecracking, self-professed redneck brother […]
It never fails that any criticism of President Obama from conservatives is met with the usual “they’re overblowing it/they’re being stupid” cry from some on the left, and this weekend is no different. In response to the legitimate outcry over the President bowing at a clear 90 degree angle to Japanese Emperor Akihito, liberals at […]
Let’s talk about bowing in Japanese culture, also known as Ojigi Ojigi (bowing) is an essential part of Japanese daily life. People bow when saying hello, thanking someone, apologizing, saying good-bye and introducing themselves. Although shaking hands (akushu) has become accepted as a form of greeting, many Japanese still are not used to it. The […]
Me: I think we’ve reached a turning point, and the turning point is this: Intellectualism has become the readiness, willingness and ability to call dangerous things safe, and safe things dangerous. If you’re ready, willing and able to call dangerous things dangerous and safe things safe, you are a moron. Farker BigSteve3000 (2009-11-13 05:12:23 AM): […]
This is pretty much obligatory, cuz its everywhere else. I’d hate to be the only blog that doesn’t have this video. While the ACLU pops the cork, do you think public outrage will be enough that we will see a walk back on this? Crossposted from STACLU
Written by Greg Scott; crossposted from STACLU: Much has been written over the past 24 hours that does well to explain why the Obama Regime’s despicable decision to bestow unprecedented constitutional protections on those whose only connection to America is that they have directed the incineration of thousands of our innocent countrymen or worked not […]
The headline up top is borrowed from Power Line, “Why is This Man Bowing?” (via Memeorandum): Obama’s breach of protocol is of a piece with the substance of his foreign policy. He means to teach Americans to bow before monarchs and tyrants. He embodies the ideological multiculturalism that sets the United States on the same […]
1. Katie Couric was totally hitting on her before their interview. 2. McCain really only picked her for Veep in an attempt to make Mrs. McCain jealous (it worked). 3. It also made Meghan jealous. 4. The boots are left over from an old Nazi Mistress costume. 5. Sarah was the quiet mousy girl nobody […]
I’m painting with a broad brush, of course. I’m applying one guy’s statement to a large (although not the largest) segment of American society. Still, I think I’m on solid ground here. Liberals think money grows on trees. Ezra Klein, talking about the health care “reform” bill currently being bandied about in the U.S. Senate: […]
My weekly round up of the best of conservative talk radio is now up at WND. You can enjoy FREE audio and video clips from Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck and other hosts whose shows you might have missed this week. PLUS: I talk about the new Cato Institute report on the return of […]
The Washington Post lays out the rational for the decision to prosecute KSM and the other 9/11 jihadis in court in NYC Eric H. Holder Jr. called his order Friday to send the suspected plotters of the Sept. 11 attacks to trial in Manhattan “the toughest decision I’ve had to make as attorney general.” But […]
Roland Emmerich’s new end-of-the-world disaster film 2012 has a rollicking good time destroying every monument to man’s architectural genius in the world. The Sistine Chapel goes kablooie, as does the Vatican and the giant Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro. The White House gets flattened, too. All man’s most well known landmarks get […]
Some tax facts from the Tax Foundation [pdf]to ponder while you work toward paying off the government’s first claim on your paycheck today. Fact 1: Not everyone is doing that. Today, 46 million tax filers have no income tax liability after taking advantage of all of the credits and deductions in the tax code–one-third of […]
It’s big news. From CNN, “Accused 9/11 Plotter Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Faces New York Trial.” And perhaps a bit dangerous. From Red State, “Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to Be Sent to New York for Trial.” There have been reports in the past month about another potential terrorist attack disrupted in New York City. Bringing these high […]
In the Washington Examiner Mark Tapscott is decrying the Obama Administration’s bold new directive to rid government of anyone that was hired during the Bush years so that Obama can replace them with his loyal operatives.Tapscott is saying that this violates the spirit of civil service and brings back the spoils system instituting a “partisan […]
