I was talking to a very credible Capitol Hill source (who wishes to remain anonymous) today and that person told me a story that just blew my mind. Well actually, it should have blown my mind, but unfortunately, it is the sort of laziness and terrible messaging that we have too often seen from the […]

“Look at the incredible decline in the stock market, in all indices, since the inauguration of the president, with the drop accelerating when the budget plan came to light because of the massive fear and indecision the document sowed: Raising taxes on the eve of what could be a second Great Depression, destroying the profits […]

Although I think the Democratic attacks on Rush make for dumb political strategy, the RNC could learn something from the “Send Rush a message” contest that the Democratic Party is running, We’ll go through all of the slogans you submit, and the winner will have his or her submission appear on a billboard in Rush […]

“Liberals hate religion because politics is a religion substitute for liberals and they can’t stand the competition.” — Ann Coulter More proof that Ann was right yet again, Guess where those votive candles were on sale? Hint: It’s an extremely liberal city in the US and probably the least friendly place to Christianity and mainstream […]

This morning, I work up to the classic blinking alarm clock. We had a power outage and because of that, I am a couple of hours behind my normal schedule. So unfortunately, for those of you who are used to swinging by early, it will be a little later than normal before my updates are […]

What’s next? I’ll tell you what’s next… Listen! Listen! Can you hear it? it’s the sound of Barack Obama bumper stickers being torn off of cars all over this freaking country. Are you kidding me?! This guy is a disaster. Change? Change? Nobody knew what change was then. And Nobody knows what change is now. […]

So, 95% are going to get a tax cut are they? Well, that’s great. But what the government gives on the one hand, it will find a way of taking with the other. It needs money folks, and it will get what it needs one way or the other: A senior Senate Democrat said Tuesday […]

It was once a high honor to become a British knight. Then came moonbattery. Now, knights include the likes of pervert pop star Elton John and the comparably squirrelly Paul McCartney. The embarrassing remnants of Britain hit rock bottom today with this: Ted Kennedy, one of the leading members of the family dynasty that dominated […]

Let’s see, what will Obama throw our money at next? Welfare? Just did that, although welfare is now called “tax cuts.” Socialized medicine? He just made a “down payment” of $634 billion. I know, how about a $350 trillion space shield to deflect light from the sun: Scientists claim they can fight global warming by […]

So Senators using Twitter are giving constituents a peak behind conference doors. Evidently, it’s unpleasant. Not surprising. A room full of politicians….anyway. Here’s the kerfluffle as reported by AirCongress: The Arizona Republican posted his first anti-pork list under the Twitter name @SenJohnMcCain late last week, calling attention to projects like $650,000 for beaver management and […]

Barack Obama’s administration is tanking the stock market. The massive deficits and new government programs, the talk about bank nationalization, the talk about a trillion dollar tax hike, bailouts, the new regulations they’re discussing, cutting executive pay, etc., etc. What they’re doing, in a terrible economy, is introducing wild new variables and elements of risk […]

“Look, if we could get the Iranian nuclear program stopped with Russian’s helping us in return for selling out the Poles and the Czechs on missile defense, I’m enough of a cynic and a realist to say we would do it the same way that Kissinger agreed to delegitimize and de-recognize Taiwan in return for […]

…to keep tanking the stock market. …to keep creating massive debts our children will have to pay off. …to infringe on the 2nd Amendment rights of Americans. …to lose the war on terrorism and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. …to close Gitmo. …to expand government. …to use the power of government to silence his […]

There has been a lot of excitement from Barack Obama supporters about a new poll that shows he’s more popular than evah! After Barack Obama’s first six weeks as president, the American public’s attitudes about the two political parties couldn’t be more different, the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds. Despite the country’s struggling […]

Last week, I had an opportunity to talk to former House Republican Whip, Roy Blunt. Blunt stepped down from his leadership position and is now preparing for a run at the Senate in Missouri. What follows is a slightly edited transcript of our conversation. All right, first of all, now the GOP was in control […]

From the Republican Study Committee: Deficit Spending With Democrats Feb. 13, 2008 – The first “stimulus” bill, H.R. 5140, became law, putting checks in the mail. Democrat Response: 215 House Democrats (93%) voted to add $124.4 billion to the deficit (CBO). Senator Obama did not show up to vote. July 30, 2008 – H.R. 3221 […]

When Michael Steele originally announced his intention to run for RNC Chair, I said some very nice things about him, Michael Steele would be an excellent selection as well. He’s young, charismatic, gets it, likes the blogosphere, is popular with conservatives, and understands how to pitch younger voters. Moreover, when the RNC Chair race turned […]

As you might imagine, the 5% (the taxable “rich”) are trying to figure out how to become a part of the 95% (the “tax cut” rest): President Barack Obama’s tax proposal – which promises to increasetaxes for those families with incomes of $250,000 or more — has some Americans brainstorming ways to decrease their pay, […]

Not another one… Ron Kirk, the nominee for U.S. trade representative, has agreed to pay about $10,000 in back taxes, becoming the latest top-level appointee in the Obama administration to face the embarrassment of dealing with an income tax problem. At least Kirk can make use of the classic liberal defense so often heard when […]

Chairman Zero’s ability to slip carbon caps into law without any serious debate may cripple our already hobbling economy, but there is one group that will benefit, other than antihuman enviromaniacs: lobbyists. The Heritage Foundation quotes a study by the Center for Public Integrity: …more than 770 companies and interest groups hired an estimated 2,340 […]

I was wondering how long it would take the squishy Republicans who despised Sarah Palin and cozied up to Barack Obama during the campaign to come to the realization that they had been completely bamboozled by the most radically liberal President in American history. Well, the scales are finally, at long last, starting to lazily […]

I have written on manliness before since I dig manly men and find the softening male culture…well, boring if nothing else. Men and women are made different and their differences make life interesting. The sexual revolution resulted in a boring world where men are metrosexuals–all pointy-toed shoes and manicures, and women are butch she-beasts. In […]

If you’re black and you’re conservative, you belong in the Republican Party — period, end of story. If you’re black and you’re moderate, you should be at least considering voting for the Republican Party. That’s how it should be, but it doesn’t happen, does it? A tiny percentage of black Americans, maybe one in ten […]

“There is a mysterious cycle in human events. To some generations much is given. Of other generations much is expected. This generation of Americans has a rendezvous with destiny.” — FDR We Americans, complain though we may, are a generation to which much has been given.

A billion dollars of your tax dollars is on its way to Palestine, 300 million of it earmarked for the Gaza Strip where Hamas still rules: U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Monday will pledge about $300 million in U.S. humanitarian aid for the war-torn Gaza Strip, plus about $600 million in assistance […]
