Obama’s Big Sky Problem

CNN finds a paradox: Spend a day in this tiny town about 23 miles or so from where President Obama will be holding a town hall meeting on Friday, and it’s easy to see why his health-care push is facing big problems in Big Sky country — even from the people he’s trying to help. […]

Intelligence Gathering at Today’s DHS

People blamed 9/11 on an intelligence failure. But with Crappy Nappy Napolitano (aka Uncle Mort) running the Department of Homeland Security, the problem has been resolved. For example, in compiling her report on the security menace posed by those who don’t share her left-wing politics, she demonstrated great creativity in exploiting new sources of information: […]

Profiles in Countermoonbattery: Charles Augusto Jr.

Bad as things are getting under Hope & Change, it’s still not too late for some heroism: A 72-year-old Irvington [New York] man turned a 12-gauge shotgun on four armed bandits who tried to hold up his restaurant supply store in Harlem Thursday, killing two and wounding the others, police said.

Now CNN Reporting on What Sarah ISN’T Doing

To show how obsessed the Old Media is over Governor Palin, now CNN has a story on its website ruminating over what Sarah isn’t doing. It seems that she can’t get away from the Old Media even by doing nothing. First they lose their minds over what she is doing, and then when she stops […]

Daddy Warbama Drops Stimulus Money On Kids

Nothing like a little bribe to create more little Obama zombies, eh? A $200 back-to-school giveaway for needy kids sparked a mad rush for money on the streets of New York on Tuesday. “It’s free money!” said Alecia Rumph, 26, who waited in a Morris Park, Bronx, line 300 people deep for the cash to […]

Obama Advisor Linked To Boycott Of Glenn Beck Show

Is this what Obama meant by “post-partisan,” healing the divide, doing things differently in Washington, hopenchange? A racially charged activist group called “Color of Change” founded by Van Jones, a special advisor to the Obama Administration, is trying to silence popular radio and Fox News personality Glenn Beck by calling for a boycott of Beck’s […]

Union Pensions Getting BIG Payoff From Obamacare

It isn’t just out of the goodness of their hearts that Big Labor is gearing up to spend millions to help President Obama to jam Obamacare down the throats of the American people. The unions stand to get a big payoff of $10 billion to supplement their failing pension plans. The President of the AFL-CIO […]

In Cyberspace You Snoop Citizens, Not Terrorists

The Airplane movies would be proud of this one. It’s wrong to find out why an “ordinary American” who has never been within five thousand miles of America in his entire life, wants to call Osama bin Laden on his satellite phone from Amman or Damascus. But the feds are going to put cookies on […]

D’JEver Notice? XXIV

Neo-Neocon aptly dissects Camille Paglia, who in turn represents many Obama supporters that are beginning to wake up to the fact that He is slightly different from what He was pretending to be…but still want to cling to some part of last year’s dream, and therefore remain partially clueless. Obama is a savior for the […]

Futility

Thing I Know #94. There are a lot of people walking around who put lots of energy into telling others that something can’t be done. Gregory Clark, a perfesser of Economics at UCal/Davis, seems to think success is something our modern society cannot afford: With the march of technology, the size of a future American […]

Memo For File XCII

I had this horrible nightmare in which I was becoming a good friend of mine, an older gentleman who drank himself to death. It got me to thinking some more about Meghan McCain’s idiotic comments, and how they connect together with what I had to say in response to one of Mahatma Ghandi’s most famous […]

Congress: Do As I Say, But Don’t Expect Me To

Want to see how far our political system has fallen since the bight days of promise in 1776? Check out this quote from Federalist No. 57, published on February 19, 1788, penned by James Madison: “The House of Representatives … can make no law which will not have its full operation on themselves and their […]

CYA: ACORN, ACLU Attempt to Throw Out Penn. Voter Law

So, what do you do if you are the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) and you are accused of violating state election laws? What else but hire the ACLU to try and get those laws thrown out as unconstitutional? In Pennsylvania, six members of ACORN have been indicted for violating a state […]

At The Right Online Conference In Pittsburgh

I’m at the Right Online Conference in Pittsburgh today and tomorrow — so’s Melissa Clouthier. I meant to post about this last night before I left, but I got behind schedule and wanted to make sure that I got at least 7 hours sleep before I drove. That’s right; I drove from the Carolina coast […]

David Frum: stupid conservatives, inciting violence like that!

From the “when you’re on a roll, keep rolling” files, this is the second time this week I’m taking after David Frum for saying something…well, stupid. Writing in The Week, Frum tells us that conservatives are inciting violence at health care town hall meetings: A man bearing a sidearm appears outside President Obama’s Aug. 11 […]

No Such Thing As Death Panels Removed From Senate Version

The Hill Is reporting The Senate Finance Committee will drop a controversial provision on consultations for end-of-life care from its proposed healthcare bill, its top Republican member said Thursday.

Who Is It That Is Spreading “Fear” Out There?

You may recall from Obama’s health care pep rally townhall where he claimed that those in opposition to his healthcare plan were spreading disinformation and fear. But he also talked about doctors being more inclined to cut off a diabetic’s foot than treat him because they would make more doing the amputation than with preventive […]

Comrade Obama Loses the Middle

There is no way any patriot is going to like our Marxist Community Activist in Chief. By the same token, no matter what horrific damage Chairman Zero inflicts on our country, moonbats will continue to revere him; they didn’t vote for him despite his communist, anti-Caucasian, anti-American background and attitudes, but because of them. The […]

Sheila Jackson Lee’s Phony Doctor

Rep Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) doesn’t always yap into her cell phone when citizens try to get through to her at town halls meetings. No doubt she listened attentively when a self-identified doctor named Roxanna Mayer voiced her support for socialized medicine. From the Houston Comical: One supporter, Roxana Mayer, praised the reform plan for […]

Democrats show their true colors at town halls

It’s been great fun watching the Democrats’ Marie Antoinettes host town hall meetings on health care. First, Arlen Specter claimed that meeting with his constituents isn’t his job, snapping at a hostile crowd in Pennsylvania, “I don’t have any requirement to be here.” Really? Really? Meeting with the people you supposedly represent isn’t a job […]

Mayor Bloomberg Afraid of 200-Year-Old Rifle

New York City’s Mayor Michael Bloomberg has repeatedly proven that he hates the U.S. Constitution and that he feels that he a right to harass any citizen he pleases — even ones that have broken no laws. But now he has also shown his lack of manhood because it has been revealed that Bloomberg is […]

Union Bosses Trying to Bust Strike of OWN Staffer’s Union

Remember how unions are for “the little guy”? Remember how unions can’t wait to take to the street with obnoxious signs and thug behavior to strong-arm some business or another to their will? It’s all about the workers, dontcha know? Well, unless those workers that want to strike happen to be a union’s headquarters staff, […]

AGW Today: Scare Mongering? You Want Scare Mongering?

Well, here, have a dose, via a few United Nations nuts, starting with this wacko pronouncement, via Andrew Bolt “Climate change will displace 25-50 million people by next year. The situation will be the worst in the poorer countries,” says Koko Warner of the UN University’s Institute for Environment and Human Security. Besides the fact […]

Remember That Palin Private Email Snafu? Yeah, About That….

Liberals freaked out. Newspapers wanted answers. How dare Sarah Palin use a private Yahoo account! She was going all mavericky and subverting the law, hiding business from the people! They had little issue regarding another liberal hacking the email account, of course. However….. A judge has ruled that the Alaska governor’s office can use private […]

Obamacare Will Take Away Your Children

Do you want government healthcare? OK, then you shouldn’t mind if the government comes knocking at your door to see if you are raising your child in the government approved manner, right? Well that is just another of the authoritarian provisions of Obamacare. Former Hollywood tough guy and current conservative columnist Chuck Norris found another […]

The Healing Sounds of ObamaCare

What will healthcare be like, when it is controlled by the militant flakes who dominate the Democrat Party and the primary objective is to contain cost? Maybe like this video of Maui sound healing: Tibetan bowls are at the cutting edge of sound healing technology: The first Tibetan Bowl Sound Healing School (TBSHS) in the […]

Senate Restaurants Offered a Foretaste of ObamaCare

If the Dems succeed in seizing control of the entire healthcare industry, we can only hope that it’s easier to run than restaurants. From last year: Year after year, decade upon decade, the U.S. Senate’s network of restaurants has lost staggering amounts of money — more than $18 million since 1993, according to one report, […]
