First off, I didn’t live blog on RWN, nor did I intend to do so on Twitter, but the comments just poured out of me as I listened to that President jerkface blather on. Here were my comments in order, My economic agenda will provide a rainbow in every pot and a kitten riding a […]

10:06 EST Hugs all around. Oh, bring on Jindel. Hallelujah! It’s over. Thank you, thank you, thank you…. but not for the reasons these sycophants are saying and believing. 10:03 EST Leonard Abess is sleepy. Paying a $60 million dollar bonus makes one fatigued. 9:59 EST Oh thank Buddha. This is almost over. Military guys […]

No doubt this will somehow end up being blamed on “global warming”: A rocket carrying a NASA global warming satellite has landed in the ocean near Antarctica after an early morning launch failure. The mishap occurred Tuesday after the Taurus XL rocket carrying the Orbiting Carbon Observatory blasted off into the pre-dawn sky from California’s […]

I’m sick of the euphemisms in the media about this recession. It’s the same old language assault. Joe Smith didn’t murder John Brown. Oh no, John Brown died in “alleged gun-related violence” or some such nonsense. In the case of the economy, greedy home buyers, lenders, and stupid government policy didn’t cause this economic mess. […]

While our civilization circles the drain as a result of the cultural corrosion and economic insanity they’ve imposed, liberals attempt to distract us with righteous crusades against make-believe menaces like bottled water, a favorite bugaboo of San Franfreakshow Mayor Gavim Newsom. But what’s this? This week, the City Insider spotted an almost empty case of […]

Not all of the mountains of money Obama is stealing from us, our children, and our grandchildren will be showered upon parasitical welfare queens like Henrietta Hughes. Remember when Palestinians ran phone banks from their terror nest, urging Americans to vote for BHO? This won’t go unrewarded. First Obama declared he would spend a fortune […]

The RNC needs to get back on track and you can help it succeed!

Our illustrious Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has some good news for everybody, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said on Monday that the banking industry is “very close” to being stabilized and the nation’s economy is starting to rebound. “We tend to talk about the negative. … Things are beginning to turn and I […]

The stimulus bill was the single most expensive bill in world history. It’s 1.2 trillion dollars — and it’s just a warm up act for Obama, who’s planning to waste hundreds of billions more on banks, people who didn’t pay their mortgages, the Big 3, and next up: socializing our health care system, which will […]

The idea that the government can and should “fix” an economic crisis comes from a number of bad assumptions. #1) That the government is the primary factor in economic growth: The government does almost nothing to grow the economy. In fact, as a general rule, the only way the government can positively impact the economy […]

This chart, showing the utter devastation Obama has wrought on the stock market, is from Investor’s Business Daily.

15) The stimulus bill is the single largest spending bill in the history of humankind and yet, Obama is running around telling everyone how he’s going to cut the deficit in a few years. Obama claiming to be a deficit hawk — that’s like getting a lecture on honesty from Bill Clinton. 14) ACORN, which […]

I know I’ve expressed this before, but I really don’t believe that the current election contest between Norm Coleman and Al Franken is being given its due attention. With the very principles of our democracy at stake, the only reason I can see for this lack of exposure is that the left wing conspiracy within […]

“…I went into the local Food 4-Less again the other day, a cut-rate, bulk-buy chain food store. The parking lot was full of late model trucks and cars–not the sort I prefer, but those V-8 monsters, loaded up with high-priced rims, wide tires, custom paint, tinted windows, oversized trailer hitches, the whole American shebang so […]

The Obama team was not only silent on the new “Israel is racist” language, it also said nothing when faced with Holocaust denial. Negotiators from the European Union suggested on Wednesday a new provision to “condemn without reservation any denial of the Holocaust and urges all states to reject denial of the Holocaust as an […]

Not all potential casualties of Chairman Zero’s disastrous regime are Americans. Some live on the other side of the world: Amnesty International and a pro-Tibet group voiced shock Friday after US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton vowed not to let human rights concerns hinder cooperation with China. Paying her first visit to Asia as the […]

Totalitarian regimes often require ostensibly independent action. An example would be the maniacal students who went wild during China’s Cultural Revolution, inflicting violence on those deemed insufficiently fanatical in their devotion to communism. Similar tactics will be required to push through the global warming agenda, which will entail radically restricting our liberty and lowering our […]

The Obama presidency thus far has been anything but post-racial. Rather, Americans have been reminded by Obama’s representatives that anyone feeling “over” the subject lacks courage. At the Huffington Post, Rinku Sin posits that Americans prove Eric Holder’s point when the deny that America is racist: Smartly, Holder noted that our goal should not be […]

What Barack Obama’s decision to close Gitmo means in real terms: allowing a terrorist who may one day be responsible for setting off a dirty bomb in an American city to walk free, Binyam Mohamed was also planning to blow up an apartment block in the United States when he was arrested, investigators claimed. …U.S. […]

One of the things the Left repeated over and over during Bush’s time in office was that he was a belligerent cowboy who “squandered” all the goodwill that America had after 9/11. Of course, that was always a lot of hooey. It’s one thing to say something like, “We’re all Americans now,” and it’s another […]

Isn’t there something creepy and demeaning about having our Secretary of State publicly prostrating herself before the Chinese? Later, Clinton met Chinese women’s rights advocates at the US embassy but continued to steer clear of speaking on contentious human rights issues. Instead, while taping an interview on a Chinese talk show, she focused on the […]

Over at Hot Air, they’re discussing the worst movies of all-time and I have to respectfully disagree with some of their choices. Granted, I have odd taste, but I LIKED Showgirls, Waterworld, Battlefield Earth, Volcano, and Date Movie — all of which made their list. Granted, I’m not saying that any of these are my […]

It’s bad enough when Nanny-staters do it, but when the party of small-government and individualism and freedom gets in your business, it’s worse. At CNET via RedState: Republican politicians on Thursday called for a sweeping new federal law that would require all Internet providers and operators of millions of Wi-Fi access points, even hotels, local […]

I have a good friend, a retired general officer, who served in the Pentagon during the invasion of Iraq and a year or so afterward. When I saw him at a military reunion a year ago, he told me about duty at Dover Air Force Base in DE in the course of our conversation. By […]

Accused of Being Little More Than a Low-Level Taliban Fighter, Abdallah al-Ajmi Was Held by the U.S. for Nearly Four Years. After His Release, He Blew Up an Iraqi Army Outpost. Did Guantanamo Propel Him to Do It?” — Rajiv Chandrasekaran at the Washington Post

Via the BBC: Detainees being held at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan cannot use US courts to challenge their detention, the US says. The justice department ruled that some 600 so-called enemy combatants at Bagram have no constitutional rights. Most have been arrested in Afghanistan on suspicion of waging a terrorist war against the US. […]

Where to start with this joker: California Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger suggested that his party is out of touch with average Americans on the issue of health care. “You’ve got to listen to the people. If the nation is screaming out loud, ‘We need health care reform. We want to have universal health care. We […]
