If you were to search Google News this morning for the word “vetting”, you’d find well over 1500 hits in relation to that word and the Van Jones story. The current meme is that Jones was not sufficiently vetted by the Obama administration – that his shortcomings and controversial positions were not exposed, primarily because he was an appointed “czar” with no Congressional approval or | Read More »
You really have to give the Air America hostess credit for the phrase “charming liar”. This recording is just unbelievable, considering the source. Don’t be afraid to click on it and listen – this is the sweetest thing you’ll hear all night. It’s amazing that he has come to the point of antagonizing his own party and supporters just as much as he does us. | Read More »
It started during the campaign: “We are the ones we’ve been waiting for”. The messianic allusions were everywhere. The pictures of Obama with halos, white robes and other God-like adornments littered the interwebs. We were to believe that the “O” stood for the “three O’s” – omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence. He was even afraid to have the name of the true Messiah present at one | Read More »
Remember this? My, oh my, how soon they forget.
Last week during his visit with Pope Benedict XVI, Barack Obama made the ludicrous claim that he “wants fewer abortions” and “would work to limit how many abortions take place each year in the United States”. Now I suppose that the Pope doesn’t spend a lot of time paying attention to United States politics or he would have realized that Obama was telling a bald-faced lie, | Read More »
There’s talk in DC about how the current stimulus isn’t working, so we really need another stimulus to really get the economy going. In yesterday’s Kansas City Star, columnist E. Thomas McClanahan commented about the thought of another “stimulus”: Former Clinton Treasury man Roger Altman had a troubling piece the other day in The Wall Street Journal, saying that quite soon we’ll be facing a big | Read More »
Schizophrenia: A form of psychosis marked by a strong tendency to dissociate oneself from reality. Schizophrenia is often characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and inappropriate reactions to situations. The word schizophrenia is often used informally as well as scientifically to indicate a split personality. (from The American Heritage® New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy, Third Edition) One thing I’ve always agreed with was the title of Michael Savage’s book “Liberalism is a Mental Disorder,” as | Read More »
For several years now the Democrats have sought to overcome the GOP’s advantage with Christian voters. But their attempts to use “Jesus talk” have not been taken seriously by Christian conservatives, as their policies have largely flown in the face of their words. There are some on the so-called “Christian Left” who have taken up with the Democrats, much like they have accused Christian conservatives | Read More »
It was inevitable that the foreign press would eventually catch on to the buffoonish nature of Obama’s non-teleprompted persona. And so it has. The Guardian’s John Crace updates us on what the POTUS is thinking when functioning sans TOTUS. Here’s an excerpt: Barack Obama: ”I, I, would say that, er … pause [I HAVEN'T A CLUE] … if you look at … pause [WHO IS THIS NICK ROBINSON JERK?] … the, the | Read More »
Opinion polls ratings for the Prez continue to dive. All the major polling groups are showing a shrinking approval-to-disapproval ratio. Today Pew Research, Gallup and CNN all published new numbers, and all showed significant slips. The Pew polling showed a rather amusing result: Pew attributes Obama’s slippage in its poll to a change in public perception about his political leanings, with respondents saying by 44 | Read More »
We are all aware that Barack Obama is on the path to move the USA towards his vision of a socialist paradise. Hidden in Obama’s budget proposal is another plan to raise taxes – but this time it’s being done on the backs of those who are trying to help the needy and unfortunate: charities. His budget proposal calls for reducing the deductibility of charitable | Read More »
The President this week stated that there would be a “catastrophe” if the so-called “stimulus” bill isn’t passed immediately. But the only “catastrophe” I see coming is the bill itself. Yesterday the WSJ referred to “The Stimulus Tragedy,” and it seems an apt descriptor for what we’re seeing emerge from Capitol Hill. From the WSJ: …Mr. Obama chose to let House Democrats write the bill, | Read More »
Well, the N00b-in-Chief has a couple of weeks under his belt, and the track record ain’t good. Cabinet nominees are dropping faster than the approval rating for the economic “stimulus” package, despite their numeric disadvantage, the GOP in Congress is gaining momentum, and America’s Mother-in-Law is struggling with the concept of numbers. Could it be a conspiracy, or are the Dems just that dumb?
As fellow contributor Warner Todd Huston has demonstrated several times, the Associated Press is hardly the textbook example of an unbiased media source. Today the AP again showed their Obama-slanted bias with an article titled “Obama breaks from Bush, avoids divisive stands”. But unsurprisingly, in the AP’s alternate universe, “divisive stands” is defined as “conservative positions”. The AP piece begins: Barack Obama opened his presidency | Read More »
If you weren’t convinced that the Dems weren’t really serious about re-instituting the “Fairness Doctrine,” then take a gander at The O’s latest: “You can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done,” he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package. One White House official confirmed the comment but said he | Read More »
There are so many metaphors to use to frame the discussion of the treatment of Barack Obama’s pre- and post-inauguration performance. To a parent, everything their kids do is cute, creative, or beautiful. In the case of President Obama, to the mainstream media everything he does is beautiful. How else can we explain the reaction to a decidedly mundane inauguration speech, not to mention the | Read More »
That’s how fast Ronald Reagan was spinning in his grave yesterday as The One delivered his speech on the economy. When President Reagan entered office in 1981, he was faced with an economic problem brought on by four years of Carter ineptitude. Did he call for massive government intervention? No. Let me refresh your memory, in case you need it: In this present crisis, government | Read More »
Exit polls from the 2008 Presidential election showed that Obama received around 77% of the Jewish vote. I’m at a loss to understand why. Guys like this claim that Obama “represents the values of (their) community” but fail to describe what those “values” are. And now we see that support for Israel’s action against Hamas is coming largely from the GOP side. Per Rasmussen: Sixty-two | Read More »
I’m getting ready to go to church, where I will be standing in front of the congregation to pray for our Prez-to-be. I offer this article from Ligon Duncan on how Christians are to pray for Mr. Obama. From 1 Timothy 2:1-2 – I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— for kings and all those in | Read More »
In the aftermath of the election, many Obama supporters have lost their reason to live. They’ve now become … the undead. Obama Win Causes Obsessive Supporters To Realize How Empty Their Lives Are Hide your children. Lock your doors.
