Glenn Beck Leader of Republican Party

As scary as this may sound… Glenn Beck might actually have more power than anybody else representing the republican party. As the republican party seemingly has no leader in their ranks, at least one that can represent the voice of the people. Even though Glenn Beck is an independent, he represents more republicans than the […]

March on Washington 912DC [Pictures]

As the clouds loomed over the capital hundreds of thousands of people gathered to protest the corruption and greed in Washington D.C. Protesting everything from the health care bills, or lack thereof, taxes, the deficit, the continuation of the Iraq & Afgan wars, the lies, failure to read the bills, failure to listen… Just about […]

Finding Racism Everywhere

You have to read Maureen Dowd’s column in full to understand how far the left will go to try to make any disagreement with this administration into racism. They still believe that the political correctness they’ve attempted to impose on the country over the least few decades makes that charge into a magic bullet they […]

Obama’s Approval Ratings Continue to Sink in NC

For my fellow North Carolinians disgusted with the news last fall that North Carolina went to a Democrat nominee for President for the first time since Jimmy Carter – thus now making this once solidly red state now a “battleground state,” here is a welcome bit of news: The latest survey by Public Policy Polling […]

Nice Counting There, New York Times!

It doesn’t speak well of the New York Times’ layers upon layers of fact-checkers and editors that this paragraph made it to publication. The demonstrators numbered well into the tens of thousands, though the police declined to estimate the size of the crowd. Many came on their own and were not part of an organization […]

NFL Opening Day!

We’ll give it a shot, see if we can keep this going throughout the season. Who’s playing? Cowboys (-5): at Bucs Detroit and New Orleans (-14) Dolphins at Falcons (-4) Jets at Texans (-4) Broncos at Bengals (-5) Eagles (2 1/2) at Panthers Jaugars at Colts (-6 1/2) Vikings (-4) at Browns Chiefs at Ravens (-13) […]

9/12 Teaser Post

So I’m going to do the big photo dump tomorrow and get the rest of this stuff out there, but let me just say that this was the most amazing thing I’ve been a part of. I was just stunned by the amount of people that showed up. I spent the day taking as many […]

California’s Mass Job Loss… Except in Government

-By Warner Todd Huston A recent report by the Sacramento based California Budget Project shows that two out of five working-age Californians are out of work. The jobless rate has not been this bad since 1977. California’s unemployment rate is one of the worst in the country at 12 percent. Yet, union membership has grown […]

Obama Inspires Me to Put in 120%

The President made a whole lot of comments regarding truth and falsehood in His speech to a joint session of Congress this week. However, after He “corrected” the record and the fact-checkers got done fact-checking His corrections, it seems the “rumors” that He was “correcting” were not regarding anything that exists on this plane of […]

Nine/Twelve Mentality

We know precisely what a nine/ten mentality is. Precisely. Let anyone forget, Senator Kerry in the week just past was kind enough to remind us. As James Taranto observed in his Best of the Web online column, the headline said it all: Kerry Marks Eve of 9/11 Anniversary With Push for Climate Legislation The nine/eleven […]

“The Soup is Terrible and the Portions Are Too Small”

Much of the “governing” that took place in our country throughout the twentieth century, has consisted of a) identifying a problematic social program that had been put in place in some past generation to redistribute money — what in God’s name were we thinking when we put that turkey in?? — and b) putting together […]

Well, yeah, maybe Obama wasn’t lying about illegals under ObamaCare

President Obama said it: illegal aliens (or immigrants, or “undocumented” immigrants…or workers…pick your euphemism) will not be covered under his health care plan. Actually, they could be, in several different circumstances. But they won’t be. The president said so. They so won’t be covered under ObamaCare, in fact, the U.S. Senate working to take the […]

Glenn Beck: The One Thing, 9/11

This is the only YouTube I could find (at the link),: so apologies about the idiotic “tearful rant” title you’ll see there. Thank God for him, Glenn Beck shows his emotion on his sleeve, and it’s not an act. He makes the case that we as Americans have fallen down on the job in constructing new […]

Joe Wilson’s dirty secret…he served in the Army!

No, really. The South Carolina Republican who yelled “you lie” at President Obama Wednesday night served 31 in the Army and National Guard. Retired as a Colonel. His four sons all serve, too. That hypocritical bastard. Newsweek’s Adam Weinstein writes: Cut the man some slack. He’s passionate! I know this because he told me, in […]

September 11. We are doomed. By choice.

Or more accurately: The self-loathing, apathy, craven opportunism, laziness and sheer stupidity of millions of other people — who, worst of all, know who they are — are dooming me, and I’m not very happy about that. Anyhow, I regret to say that I can’t think of a better way to remember 9/11 than to […]

Lt David Halderman Jr. – FDNY

A post I did in September of 2006 for the 2996 Project, originally entitled “September 11th, 2001 – “We Lost David”. It is the ongoing fulfillment of a promise made in the last sentence of the post. This is what 9/11 should be about. ____________________________________________________________ Each week I do a tribute, called Project Hero, about […]

For Once Obama May Not Have Been Lying

Maybe Chairman Zero wasn’t lying after all when he proclaimed that illegal aliens won’t be eligible for free medical care at our extravagant expense under socialized medicine: It is true that both the House and Senate health care bills as they are now drafted would make illegal aliens ineligible for federally funded health care. But […]

Federal Agency Fights Card Check For Its Own Employees

As the president and Congress considers passing the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) in which the “card check” feature is still a major provision, a federal agency is trying to prevent its own employees from using the card check practice to organize. The Legal Services Corp., a congressionally chartered, taxpayer-funded entity has hired legal counsel […]

More ACORN Goons Caught Trying to Facilitate Prostitution

In case you thought Obama’s ACORNistas in Baltimore were atypical in their willingness to help use taxpayer money to set up a brothel for child sex slaves, let’s turn to DC: One day after two ACORN officials in Baltimore were fired for offering to help a man and woman posing as a pimp and prostitute […]

Rachel Maddow: Glenn Beck Exploiting Tragedy of 9/11 – But, Guest Melissa Harris-Lacewell Says ‘Healthcare Similar Time of Crisis’ to September 11

I admit, Rachel Maddow is infuriating. She basically spouts off netroots lies as fact and assumes she’s got some kind of wisdom from on high. It’s always pretty pathetic, but it’s especially bad to hear her attack Glenn Beck’s 9-12 Project with a load of distortions and untruths. Maddow claims 9-12 tea parties are politically […]

Ann Coulter on Joe Wilson, “The Greatest Living Statesman”

More on Congressman Joe Wilson: This is a must-watch. Ann Coulter is right on point about healthcare, while Bill O’Reilly beats around the bush defending big government. Ann defends Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) for being one of the few Republicans will the boldness to stand up to the Democrats and their “chosen one.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGCAB2h4US8 (Sorry, […]

Pat Toomey: How A Smart Conservative Appeals To Moderates

There is a difference between ideology and politics. It’s easy for talk radio hosts, bloggers, and columnists (including me) to talk about what needs to be done. Our audiences tend to be made up of like minded people and we don’t have to worry about moderates who barely know who the Vice-President is or which […]

An Un-American Display? No Way To Treat A President?

Eugene Robinson, Washington Post opinion writer, apparently thinks history started on January 20, 2009. On the Opinions front page, the article is entitled “An Un-American Display,” while in the screeching single page, it is called “No Way To Treat A President.” Anyone who watched Wednesday night as President Obama explained his health-care reform proposals to […]

An Interview With Congressman Joe Wilson

On Wednesday night Congressman Joe Wilson made big news when he shouted out, “You lie,” while Barack Obama was falsely claiming that illegal aliens aren’t going to be covered by the health care bills winding their way through Congress. Last night I got an opportunity to interview him. What follows is the slightly edited transcript […]

Will Obamacare Put Abortion Providers in Schools?

In a section innocuously titled “School-Based Health Clinics,” the House bill, H.R. 3200, seems to set up Democrats to invite groups like Planned Parenthood into our schools to serve as a school “health clinic.” (‘Sec. 399Z-1. School-Based Health Clinics.) And even more insidiously the bill provides for these “clinics” to be initiated immediately — effective […]

This Week In Quotes: 9/4 – 9/10

I reject the whole Birth Certificate Conspiracy. I don’t buy it. It requires the falsification of too many facts I know to be true to be considered borderline-plausible. But I’ll tell you one thing: You need to falsify far more facts, and assume much greater malignancy of the main actors, to buy into Trutherism. Birtherism […]
