A strategy for destroying our constitutional rights that goes back to FDR’s disastrous regime is to replace them with whimsical new rights that effectively reduce us to slaves. Roosevelt schemed of inflicting an “Economic Bill of Rights” that would make a farce of fundamental real rights, such as the right to own property. Comrade Obama […]
Rather than using bankruptcy to free themselves from the union contracts bleeding them dry, GM and Chrysler knuckled under and were absorbed by Chairman Zero’s socialist blob. Consequently, they are on the road to oblivion. Conversely, Ford held out against the heavy-handed “bailouts,” earning it great respect from the public. Soon GM will be a […]
Still waiting for a media link, but, Chicago was eliminated from 2016 Olympics consideration. In the FIRST ROUND! So much for the Rock Star presidents star power. But, Barry and Michelle will always be able to look back to their tax payer funded vacation to Copenhagen fondly. Quick update: ESPN has the 411. Not just […]
America’s kids are too fat. Right? Don’t we hear that all the time? Isn’t it a steady mantra from the left that America is suffering from an “epidemic” of obesity? So, shouldn’t we want to encourage kids to get outdoors? Wouldn’t it be a good thing if kids rode a bicycle to school? Not to […]
Look, I love the Grateful Dead. I’ve seen them live in Philly (2x), Norfolk (2x), D.C., and Hershey Park. Good time everytime. Even so, this is rather absurd The Grateful Dead Archive has taken another step in its long strange trip, from the UC Santa Cruz library to its own Web site, The Virtual Terrapin […]
Remember a few days ago when the Excitable Left was getting all excitable about a Facebook “should Obama be assassinated” poll? Well, the USSS did their investigation, and busted an evil reich winger! Though, shockingly, none of the same folks on the left who were throwing out accusations in an outraged manner have bothered with […]
From Dan Balz, “A Republican Comeback?“: Are Republicans at a low ebb or making a comeback? The question is prompted by the new release from the Gallup organization, which showed that the gap in party identification is now the smallest it has been since 2005. Democrats are still in the lead, but not by the […]
I don’t know how else to describe this from Thomas Friedman: I was in Israel interviewing Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin just before he was assassinated in 1995. We had a beer in his office. He needed one. I remember the ugly mood in Israel then – a mood in which extreme right-wing settlers and politicians […]
You know, it’s bad enough that we have cowardly Congressman Alan Grayson attacking conservatives as “knuckle dragging Neanderthals.” That slur apparently received a warm welcome by the Democratic leadership. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi declared that Represenative Grayson has no need to apologize, and that’s despite widespread condemnation of Grayson from mainstream quarters. Gloria Borger decried […]
You know, we all love the Internet. Heck, I make a good portion of my living on Al Gore’s most famous invention so it gets a big thumbs up from me, for sure. But we have to admit that there are an awful lot of goofballs on these Internet tubes. In some ways, the whole […]
We can look at four of the amendments offered as additions to the healthcare bill that Democrats defeated and what we see gives us a glimpse into the Democratic Party’s true soul. And it is a dark look, indeed. At least it’s dark if you are one of those lowly citizens that thinks government transparency […]
I’ve been thinking a lot about responses to my post regarding the gal who is running for town council, the one who donated to Obama, and who nevertheless seems to be a fiscal conservative. I asked how she can live with the cognitive dissonance. Several of you pointed out, in one form or another, that […]
All of us have long known that poverty in America isn’t like poverty anywhere else in the world. There really isn’t anything here comparable to the poverty in Haiti, or Calcutta, or large swathes of Africa. Even poor people have televisions and phones. And it’s apparent that a surprising number of people who are living […]
The moonbat campaign against cigarettes has reached levels of hysteria not seen since the Salem witch trials. In Dallas, Chris Daniel is suing for six figures because her former neighbor smoked. According to Daniel, cigarette smoke somehow managed to seep through the “solid, two-hour fire wall from the foundation to the roof” that separates homes […]
ACORN is forbidden from spending the $millions of our money it receives on partisan politics. But then, it’s also forbidden from taking part in vote fraud. Documents recently discovered in an abandoned Oklahoma City office of Comrade Obama’s old gang confirm what most of us have long known: this criminal organization is partisan to its […]
Eric Canter says that President Obama hasn’t met with Republicans for four months. So much for bipartisanship. He talks about the health care bill being a “disaster” for the Obama administration. Just a side note: The Senate has two medical doctors. They’re Republicans. The White House hasn’t consulted the only doctors in the Senate on […]
Sens. Barbara Boxer and John Kerry unveiled their version of a climate change bill that uses the Waxman-Markey bill as its template. Short on details, this new bill is expected to be altered during the Senate debate. However, it’s already clear that the bill is an energy tax on American consumers. As Jack Gerard, API’s […]
Dr. Donald Palmisano, former President of the American Medical Association and Director of The Coalition To Protect Patients Rights joined me and discussed the Health Care legislation, the AMA’s support of it and much more. It is a must listen. In the second half, I discuss kids and technology with my producer Mike Williams (who […]
Ret’s start with some right hearted sirriness, sharr we? (yeah, I know, it’s mean writing it that way) Tokyo governor Shintaro Ishihara warned on Wednesday the 2016 Olympics could be the last Games, with global warming an immediate threat to mankind. “It could be that the 2016 Games are the last Olympics in the history […]
Catching up on the Alan Grayson affair from yesterday, in which I figured that there would be no condemnation resolution submitted by the GOP, well………. House Republicans changed course: on Wednesday and decided not to move forward with a resolution condemning Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Florida, for saying that the GOP health care plan calls for sick […]
I love quotes like this because it gives you a little hint about the level of the left’s self-delusion and intellectual bankruptcy. “A Primer on Reconciliation,” put together by Ken Strickland of NBC at First Read does a nice job of explaining the arcane process and some of the limits that will make it both […]
Yeah, that’s me on the right. As you may have heard, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case against Chicago’s gun ban this week. Therefore, we can expect lots of hysteria from know-nothing anti-gun crusaders who get all their facts from Michael Moore documentaries. I’ve written about gun rights–here and here. The hate […]
How is it that Hollywood is wrong about everything?
Crossposted at TabithaHale.com According a recent conversation on The View, there are apparently varying degrees of rape. And Whoopi Goldberg doesn’t think that oral, anal, and vaginal pentration, despite being told no (several times), was actually rape. So here’s the thing, Whoopi. Rape is rape. As AllahPundit pointed out, Samantha Geimer’s testimony claims that it […]

(via Political Lore Blog):The Chicago Sun Times ran the headline “Drudge wrong on Web site report”. Of course the newspaper who is in Chicago, who has a Chicago 2016 banner at the top of their site, who is posed to gain millions if the games are in town, is being truthful here. The Sun Times […]
Jaz Mckay is out today, so they’ve told me that there is going to be a John Hawkins/Jaz McKay “Best of” segment that starts at 4:07 PM EST. You can listen to it here.
It’s getting so it is hard to keep up with all these guys. Anes Subasic – a Bosnian Muslim. Plenty of info and links via Wikio. A CD labeled “September 11, 2001” in Arabic? Gee, what could that possibly be? RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Federal investigators have searched the home of a North Carolina terrorism […]
The left is in an uproar today. They got their panties in a bunch over a piece that ran on the conservative newsblog NewsMax.com where it was suggested that Obama’s irresponsible actions as president could result in a military coup that would “restore” the Constitution. Not completely without reason, many lefty blogs have lost their […]
If you want to know what the ultimate goal is of those that want reparations for the American slave trade, you have to look no farther than a telling quote that appeared in the Memphis Commercial Appeal on September 25. For slavery reparation advocates, the ultimate desire is not contrition, no apology will do, no […]
