Where I Come to Mark Kirk’s Aid
I am not a Mark Kirk fan. For me he is and always has been far too “moderate” on social issues and his now (maybe) retracted Cap and Tax vote sticks in my craw pretty badly. But Steve Benen of the Washington Monthly blog Political Animal unfairly and illicitly slammed Kirk on something he said […]

Must’ve been Friday night.
Winnie the Pooh got his head stuck in a honey jar, but Winnie the Pooh isn’t from Wisconsin. HAYWARD, Wis. — Shoppers in a Wisconsin grocery store got an unexpected surprise when a 125-pound black bear wandered inside and headed straight for the beer cooler. That’s kind of a small one. Somebody probably should have […]

If any Republican is looking for a way forward, start by doing exactly the opposite thing that David Brooks recommends
Yeah, I know, another David Brooks post, but he’s the ultimate human pinata and great blog fodder.: He starts off by correctly noting that both the Democrats and GOP are fiscally reckless jackasses, and also correctly notes that the UK far ahead of us in bankrupting their nation with insane government programs and spending.: All […]

Zombie decimates attempts to defend Kevin Jennings
Part I:: Kevin Jennings, as you recall, is Obama’s Safe Schools Czar. He’s the one who came under fire because (a) he boasts in his autobiography about giving a 15 year old gay boy safe sex advice regarding a sexual relationship with an adult man, as opposed to dealing with a statutory rape problem and […]

Even SEIU Says ACORN is Toxic
In an amusing case of the pot calling the kettle, Anna Burger, the Secretary-Treasurer of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), told Representative Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.) that the SEIU had dumped ACORN during a Sept. 30 hearing conducted by the House Financial Services Committee. Apparently Mrs. Burger felt that ACORN was too toxic for […]

Ralph Reed Speaks At Western CPAC
There are some characters we’ve all watched from a distance for years, if we’ve paid attention to politics. Ralph Reed, the leader of the Christian Coalition, is one of those people. Anyone so ideological and pure gives me a little shiver. [Side bar: Also partly why Barack Obama freaks me out.] I was a little […]

Yeah, great, the Nobel Prize, congratulations. But President Palin can get us this:
Politico: Obama 15th Hottest Head of State President Barack Obama may have been granted a Nobel Peace Prize, but that doesn’t mean that every top honor comes to him easily. The new website “Hottest Heads of State” has ranked the attractiveness of 172 world leaders, and Obama comes in 15th behind such notables as Ukraine’s […]

Obama’s Capable Of Threats And Trashing Constitution At Same Time
I guess Mr. Constitutional professor was all out of bubble gum President Obama mounted a frontal assault on the insurance industry on Saturday, accusing it of airing “deceptive and dishonest ads” to derail his health care legislation and threatening to strip the industry of its longstanding exemption from federal anti-trust laws. In unusually harsh terms, […]

Joe Arpaio Pushes Back On Illegal Immigration Enforcement
When I first noted that the Feds were looking to limit Arpaio’s authority to enforce immigration laws, I said there were State’s Rights issues involved. Looks like Arpaio noticed that, too. SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) — An Arizona sheriff known for cracking down on people who are in the country illegally launched a crime and immigration […]

“Working and Spreading, and They Are a Cancer on Our Society”
Rush Limbaugh has penned the editorial we have been wanting to see: The sports media elicited comments from a handful of players, none of whom I can recall ever meeting. Among other things, at least one said he would never play for a team I was involved in given my racial views. My racial views? […]

Senate Health Care Bill Will Put 1/3 Of US On Welfare
That’s a truly stunning number. 90 million will be on either SCHIP or Medicaid (not Medicare … Medicaid) if the Senate Finance version of health care becomes ObamaCare according to the Heritage Foundation: But of those 29 million with new insurance coverage, almost half (14 million), will get their coverage through the welfare programs Medicaid […]

Sue Lowden: Run Reid Out Of Office
Had a blogger conference call today with Sue Lowden of Nevada, the Republican front runner to take down Harry Reid in 2010. I had looked her over some when I did this post: on the hypocritical attacks already being launched against her. Lowden spoke of knowing she’s in for a tough fight and claims to be […]

Meg Whitman’s Extreme Pro-Abortion Views
A few weeks ago Jon Fleischman of FlashReport.org was fortunate enough to snag an interview with gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman. But the results of one segment of the meeting left him admittedly non-plussed, or as he termed it “unnerved.” Fleischman was aghast to learn of just how extreme Meg Whitman’s views on abortion really are.

Firefighter Suspended for American Flag Sticker On His Locker
There was a story I wrote about earlier in the year about a woman who was asked to take down her American flag on Memorial Day because others in the office found it offensive. Most of the comments supporting the action said it was because the flag was a 3×5 foot flag, which was kind […]

Conservatives Causing Problems: Clashing With GOP Establishment
The Grand Old Party rests on a false premise: Conservative ideas won’t sell anywhere but in conservative places. This premise is wrong, as Pat Toomey is proving in Pennsylvania. The national Republicans spurned Pat Toomey in favor of Arlen Specter. Look what happened there. And now, wonder of wonders, Toomey would beat Specter head-to-head. What […]

US Missile Technology Headed for China
Maybe putting a left-wing community activist with a communist background in charge of our national security wasn’t such a good idea after all, even if it did send thrills up the liberal media’s legs. Chairman Zero is not just selling our future to the communist Chinese — he may be handing over our missile technology: […]

What Does It Cost To Eat With Barry?
It turns out, quite a bit. After Obama’s quick, 4 hour tour of New Orleans, which angered many residents and supporters for its briefness and for waiting 9 months since he was coronated, as well as angering residents of the other states affected by Katrina, Dear Leader took to the air, spewing massive amounts of […]

Shocker! Obama Pentagon to Bury Bush Doctrine
If there’s one thing leftists hate more than anything else about the foreign policy of George W. Bush, it was the administration’s bold willingness to use force in defense of American interests. So as the Pentagon prepares for its Quadrennial Defense Review, leftists are getting a chance to demonize the previous administration once more (see, […]

Putin, Iran, Nuke Talks And First Strikes
Vladimir “Pooty Poot” Putin, with the opportunity to either back the words of Russia’s president that sometimes sanctions are just necessary or the Foreign Minister’s words of yesterday, chose to back the FM’s: Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin warned major powers on Wednesday against intimidating Iran and said talk of sanctions against the Islamic Republic […]
