Friday At The Freakshow

June 19, 2009

We have another Obama nominee who didn't pay taxes (notify the CDC. This is becoming an epidemic): President Obama’s choice as chief of protocol for the State Department, a position that carries the status of an ambassadorship, did not file tax returns for 2005 and 2006, errors she corrected last November. The nominee, Capricia Penavic [...]

Abortions Banned In 270th Trimester

June 5, 2009

This morning I wanted to write about President Obama's speech in Cairo, Egypt. I thought it was a very good speech, once you get past our President's troubling penchant to go overseas and heap blame on America again and again. That drives me nuts. Somebody should tell Obama that it is a real bad idea [...]

If You Can't Dazzle 'Em With Brilliance…

May 9, 2009

Baffle 'em with you-know-what. If Washington D.C. has a credo, that must surely be it. The media isn't far behind. But before I get into that, I'd like to take a moment to thank President Obama for saving us all from last week's swine flu pandemic (worldwide epidemic). Just think, if Bush was still the [...]

Politics First, National Security Second

April 27, 2009

In it's first 100 days, the Obama administration has shifted gears on national security issues. Does political ideology now trump national security ? Here are a few things to think about. – The release of the Bush OLC "torture" memos. There was NO reason to release those memos, other than political ones. Obama cited a [...]

Obama's Foreign Policy Benefits

April 20, 2009

President Obama has been criticized in conservative circles for going around the world and apologizing for America, and also for reaching out to America's enemies. I have criticized Obama myself for the apologizing, which I consider counterproductive. America does, after all, engage in diplomacy in order to advance America's interests, not to immolate itself on [...]

Political Tidbits Of The Week

April 11, 2009

What if Bush or Palin said this ?: "It was also interesting to see that political interaction in Europe is not that different from the United States Senate. There's a lot of — I don't know what the term is in Austrian — wheeling and dealing — and, you know, people are pursuing their interests, [...]

The United Nations Resolves…

April 6, 2009

In 2006, North Korea attempted a launch of a Taepodong-2 ballistic missile. The launch failed, with the missile blowing apart about 40 seconds after takeoff. In response to the North Korean launch, the United Nations issued Resolution 1718, which stated, "[We demand] that the DPRK [North Korea] not conduct any further nuclear test or launch [...]

Submission ?

April 5, 2009

I'm no expert in international protocol, so maybe someone can explain this to me: The Queen of England, our greatest ally, gets a little nod from Obama, but the Saudi Arabian monarch, who heads a repressive and radical regime, gets a deep submissive bow (notice that the Saudi didn't return the gesture). Former President Bush [...]

Hopenchange, Meet World

February 18, 2009

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is quite pleased that the United States government is approaching foreign policy with a new attitude. He is willing to deal with the USA based upon "mutual respect and equality." Ahmadinejad is all about CHANGE. As long as it's the United States that does all the changing.

The Joe Biden Experience

September 24, 2008

The media's obsession with John McCain's VP nominee, Sarah Palin, is matched only by it's total lack of curiosity regarding Obama's VP pick, Hillary Clinton Joe Biden. In one short month, America has become intimately acquainted with Palin's entire life history, including, at last count, about 125 phony smears. If you want to know what [...]

Sarah Palin With Charles Gibson

September 12, 2008

As ABC's Charlie Gibson started interviewing Governor Sarah Palin (R-AL), asking her this series of questions: "Governor, let me start by asking you a question that I asked John McCain about you, and it is really the central question. Can you look the country in the eye and say "I have the experience and I [...]

Obama Surrounds Foreign Policy

May 19, 2008

Warning to liberals – I am going to talk about Barack Obama again, so please read carefully. I extend this warning because, in the past, when I write something like "Obama's foreign policy regarding Iran doesn't make sense", liberals read it as "I'm a heartless racist Republican dittohead who hates black people and the poor".
