Radicals In Power

September 2, 2009

One of the most disturbing things about Barack Obama is not Obama himself, but rather some of the people around him, including several people he has put into positions of authority. I've already detailed the radical nature of a couple Obama administration personnel, Science Czar John Holdren and FCC Diversity Officer Mark Lloyd. Holdren has [...]

One Liners

August 20, 2009

- One nice thing about Bill Clinton's presidency was that you could oppose his policies without being called a racist (mostly).
- People who think Bush went into Iraq to enrich Halliburton have no right to complain about the Birthers.
- When you go looking for "code words" for racism, aren't you just making stuff up [...]

Killing The Land Of Opportunity

August 18, 2009

In the last nine months, our federal government has bailed out big business left and right. Wall Street, banks, insurance companies, car companies. The federal government serves as a backstop for big business. Big business also happens to be the ones with the deep pockets, lobbyists, and campaign cash to help get the politicians re-elected. [...]

Your Government At Work

July 29, 2009

President Obama is a fiscal hawk. I know that might sound strange to some of you (the sane ones), seeing as how Obama passed an $800 billion stimulus package, a record breaking, pork-laden $410 billion Omnibus bill, and a record breaking $3.55 trillion budget during the worst recession in 70 years. Yes, Obama will have [...]

Getting Beyond Race

June 30, 2009

The Senate formally apologized for slavery yesterday, one hundred and forty four years too late, one hundred and forty four years after slavery was abolished.
Do we all feel better now ? A bunch of people who had nothing whatsoever to do with slavery have apologized for it. Now we know that America doesn't condone slavery [...]

Enough Already – Stop Cap-And-Trade

June 28, 2009

“Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends – life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government.” – Thomas Jefferson
Allow me to construct a hypothetical set of circumstances. Let's say our country was in the midst of [...]

Pelosi-bot Blows A Chip

May 16, 2009

The biggest reason Nancy Pelosi's lies matter is – she's third in line to be the President of the United States. If President Obama were to become unable to serve, Vice President and Gaffemaster General Joe Biden would succeed him. After Biden, the job falls to the Speaker of the House, and that's Pelosi. After [...]

Hating Hate Crime Legislation

May 8, 2009

"Liberals are always proposing perfectly insane ideas, laws that will make everybody happy, laws that will make everything right, make us live forever, and all be rich. Conservatives are never that stupid." – P. J. O'Rourke
I don't know about the last sentence in the above quote, but the first sentence sounds right. To illustrate Mr. [...]

News The Media Can't Use

May 6, 2009

Following are some news stories our esteemed mainstream media just can't manage to find time for, at least not when such pressing issues as whether or not Miss California, Carrie Prejean, has had a boob job are still under investigation.

April 29, 2009

After 34 years as a Republican politician, Sen. Arlen Specter (?-PA), at 79 years of age, has finally figured it out….he's a Democrat.
Here's Specter's statement about making the switch:
Since my election in 1980, as part of the Reagan Big Tent, the Republican Party has moved far to the right. Last year, more than 200,000 Republicans [...]

Review: Mortgage Meltdown Video

April 27, 2009

The standard Democratic version of what caused the financial crisis is – a lack of regulation from the Bush administration, you know, all those "failed policies." That's a convenient story for the Democrats, but let's briefly review again what happened with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, who together bundle and securitize 60% of the mortgage [...]
