If you believe that the expansion of government and deficit spending are serious issues, then there almost could not be a starker difference between the two candidates for President. From the LA Times, Among other proposals during the course of the campaign, Obama has said he would strengthen the nation’s bridges and dams ($6 billion […]

This recommended diary from the Daily Kos isn’t the usual “I am happy this Republican died and is burning in hell” or “I can’t wait for the revolution so I can murder Republicans” post from Kos, but yet and still, it was such a brilliant window into the liberal mindset that I had to excerpt […]

I sometimes wonder (in fact I often wonder) about the real mental acuity of the Speaker of the House. She does not impress me as the brightest bulb in the pack: The speaker blames what she labels the Bush-Cheney big oil agenda, using graphics to point out gasoline prices have more than doubled in the […]

The GOP is in trouble right now for one simple reason: too many Republicans in DC seem to be under the impression that it’s the job of conservative voters to fall in line with their beliefs and serve their needs instead of vice-versa.

Cheri Jacobus, who is a brilliant woman, a Republican strategerist, she lives in Washington, she’s worked on Capitol Hill, posted a little blurb: “Just how much Senate experience does Barack Obama have in terms of actual work days? Not much. …how many days experience, from the time he’s inaugurated in the Senate, sworn in, until […]

Being terrorist’s metaphorical friends is not the same thing as actively working against one’s own government, but that’s exactly what Nancy Pelosi has done. No doubt, being in bed with terrorist scum will endear her to her constituents, but will average voters like it? And there’s this: How will Barack Obama respond to the House […]

Conservative groups begin highlighting one of Barack Obama’s more extreme positions: his views on abortion. CBN reports this from the Christian Defense Coalition: “Senator Obama talks about bringing hope, faith and change to American politics. We now see this is all just political ‘doublespeak.’ One of his top priorities as President would be protecting abortion […]

Monty Python in its prime would have been at a loss to outdo the self-parody into which Britain’s totalitarian political correctness has descended. In the name of combating “racism,” toddlers are now required to like foreign foods: The National Children’s Bureau, which receives £12 million a year, mainly from Government funded organisations, has issued guidance […]

The House is lost to Republicans and the numbers there are predicted to be worse after the November election. The Senate has been the Republican’s only bastion of power in this Congress, albeit as a minority party. But in the Senate, being the minority is a very powerful position to hold, if the majority held […]

It’s a great day to be an American. Now that this Fourth of July weekend has wound down, I realize that I appreciate it particularly this year because I spent last year’s out of the country while I was on vacation visiting family. And while I cherished the wonderful time I had in Malaysia with […]

I hope you enjoyed your Fourth of July weekend more than the moonbats at AP, who predictably spent it wallowing in gloom. We’re told that even the Optimists Club can hardly find a reason for America to go on living: They use words such as “terrified,” “disgusted” and “scary” to describe what one calls “this […]

“If Bill Clinton can get above 60% in the polls, he can start dating again” — Fritz Hollings Now typically, I’m the first person to sneer at stories that come from trashy gossip rags like the Globe, but they just might be onto something here, “The former President was caught on camera holding hands with […]

After taking an entire week off on vacation, I thought it would be fun to write that classic essay that all of us were forced to scribble, way back in 3rd grade: What I did on my summer vacation! Of course, back then, we had a whole summer off and it still wasn’t enough. Now? […]

“John Kerry says Republican John McCain doesn’t have the judgment to be president. If that’s the case, then it’s probably a good thing McCain rejected overtures from Kerry, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2004, to form a bipartisan ticket and run with Kerry as his candidate for vice president. … McCain came to Kerry’s aid […]

I haven’t seen all of this guy’s videos, but the ones I have seen are truly outstanding. Hat tip to Maggie’s Farm for the clip.

Predicting whom a particular candidate will take as Vice-President is always difficult because so many factors play into it. Do both candidates get along? Is the presidential nominee looking to carry a particular state, region, or demographic group, is he looking to solidify his base, or is he just trying to add strength across the […]

The brilliant Penn Jillette makes a living from being a skeptic. Skepticism, he reports in the LA Times, isn’t good enough for the “reality based community,” however — not on matters central to the canon: [S]omeone asked us about global warming, or climate change, or however they’re branding it now. Teller and I were both […]

And the fact that the ones not done by citizen journalists both come from the British media rather than our own mainstream media right here in the US should surprise no one. —– Headline: Al-Qaeda is driven from Mosul bastion after bloody last stand Subheading: The murder toll is dropping, the insurgents are on the […]

As Barack Obama is finding out, if polls are any indication: One week after Sen. Hillary Clinton made a public show of unity with Sen. Barack Obama, a new survey suggests supporters of the New York senator are increasingly less likely to follow her lead. A growing number of Clinton supporters polled say they may […]

The AP wants to make damned sure you get their point: [T]alk turns to the state of the Union, and the Optimists become decidedly bleak. They use words such as “terrified,” “disgusted” and “scary” to describe what one calls “this mess” we Americans find ourselves in. Then comes the list of problems constituting the mess: […]

Spiritual But perhaps a spiritual response is also needed to global warming — to provide the inner strength necessary to face and combat the worst effects that are to come from the Earth’s erratically changing climate. You don’t have to go to a church, synagogue or temple to be “spiritual” (although it doesn’t often hurt). […]

Without preamble, NY Times – Hippie Arrests Draw A.C.L.U.’s Attention CHEYENNE, Wyo.

Two schoolboys in Britain were punished for refusing to kneel and pray to Allah. Two schoolboys were given detention after refusing to kneel down and ‘pray to Allah’ during a religious education lesson. Parents were outraged that the two boys from year seven (11 to 12-year-olds) were punished for not wanting to take part in […]

This is serious: Barack Obama’s campaign has endorsed the accuracy of what is almost cerrtainly a forged birth certificate for Obama. And the Daily Kos website actively deleted other forged documents that betrayed the forged nature of the “Obama” birth certificate: Jay McKinnon, a self-described Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist, has implicated himself in […]
