Incapable Of The Truth

October 28, 2009

Here's Valerie Jarrett, senior advisor to President Barack Obama, speaking to CNN about Fox News:
Embedded video from CNN Video
I don't know how a clip could illustrated the dishonesty of politics any more than this clip does. When Jarrett is asked if Fox News is biased, she immediately answers "Of course they are biased. Of course [...]

White House Friends List

October 23, 2009

Earlier this week, I posted about the White House Enemies List, which consists mainly of Fox News and conservative talk radio. I assume ABC's Jake Tapper is also now on that list for daring to question the Great And Powerful Oz-bama team about bashing any media that isn't in Oz-bama's back pocket.
In that earlier post, [...]

White House Enemies List

October 19, 2009

The Nixon administration is back. Team Obama has identified the enemies, and found most of them working for Fox News. First, White House communications director Anita Dunn opined that Fox News was "opinion journalism masquerading as news." I took Dunn's initial criticism with a grain of salt, because this is a woman also cited the [...]

In Their Own Words

September 25, 2009

"For those who question the character and cause of my nation, I ask you to look at the concrete actions we have taken in just nine months." – President Barack Hussein Obama, narcissist, addressing the United Nations, September, 2009.
I'm sure glad Barry came along and fixed the character and cause of this nation after 232 [...]

Tort Reform And Race Cards

September 15, 2009

During President Obama's latest health care reform campaign speech before a joint session of Congress, he pretended to throw a bone to Republicans with a weak call for "demonstration projects" on medical tort reform. Rather odd, when you consider such demonstration projects have already been done, and have been done for years.
"Whole states are demonstration [...]

Dumber Than A Bag Of Hammers

September 9, 2009

Once again, I thought I was done with Obama's former Green Jobs Czar, Van Jones, but I HAVE to report this. Lord knows our media won't. It turns out that Mr. Jones is not only a 9/11 Truther, but he also thought that America DESERVED to be attacked on 9/11. Like Obama's 20-year pastor, Rev. [...]

A Few Things That Just Aren't True

August 31, 2009

1. Japanese officials were executed for waterboarding prisoners during World War II.
Wrong. Japanese officials were executed primarily for mass murder and for waging war against other countries. Torture was among the charges, and among the numerous torture charges was Japanese water torture (aka, water cure), not waterboarding. The two are not the same thing. Water [...]

The Daily Democrat

August 28, 2009

At a townhall meeting, former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair Howard Dean was asked why tort reform is not included in ObamaCare. Then an amazing thing happened. Dean came very close to telling the truth. I was stunned. The truth ? Did Dean get DNC clearance for that ? I hope he doesn't get flagged [...]

Passing The Buck

August 24, 2009

Do you believe our federal government is competent ? Do you think it's doing a good job of solving our problems ? Are we getting our money's worth ? Let's run through a checklist.
The government declared a war on poverty about 45 years ago. How'd that work out ? We may not have an exit [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
