I applaud the many brilliant minds that grace America. Good for you for thinking deep thoughts and expounding on complexities and nuances of this, that and the other. I think that is grand. But I also think that most of the truths that can guide us aright are right out there in the open. I believe they are stunningly, astoundingly obvious. I bring them up | Read More »
The events of the last 17 months need no rehashing here. What is noteworthy is the tremendous backlash in response to the Left’s machinations. America is now focused. They want an end to intrusive, bloated, nanny government, and an end to an activist judiciary. They want an America that proudly faces the world and says “We have been and remain the beacon of freedom and | Read More »
Honestly, I thought the NYT Times had that sewn up. Somewhere between Paul Krugman (“if you’re not Keynesian, you’re a rich white hoarder of America’s money — AND seditious”), Bob Herbert (“if you’re not hunky-dory with the dramatic Democrat expansion of government, you’re a racist — AND seditious”), and Maureen Dowd (“if you’re a man, you’re a sexist — AND seditious”). Tom Friedman too, but | Read More »
For generations after the Moses-Joshua era, the Israelites had been ruled by nobody. They had been governed by God’s law handed down to Moses, guided loosely by citizen judges under the watchful eye of the Lord Almighty. Other nations were ruled by kings, and at long last the foolish and shortsighted Israelites were no longer content to be God’s chosen people, operating under His providence: | Read More »
What we have here is a failure to communicate. At no time in American history has the ruling party so insistently striven to impose its iron will on such a loudly unwilling citizenry. They are not listening, and they will stop at nothing. When flim-flammery fails, try intimidation. When intimidation fails, try chicanery. When chicanery fails, try illegal. And when illegal fails, try unconstitutional.
I’ve been thinking about this for awhile. I believe there’s a way to do this, for both parties to meet in the middle to get this country back on track economically. Probably with less than 2000 pages of bill too, not to brag or anything. The Democrats have been making some noise for quite some time about a “Second Stimulus”, which of course has no | Read More »
[UPDATE : you can review the whole Fredhead Archive here at your leisure:] The past 9 months have been instructive, yes? We’ve seen what happens in the utter absence of conservative governance; when evil, arrogant, and ambitious people have unfettered control over the reins of power. We’ve seen they are unable to govern either themselves or their lust for power, riding roughshod over all Constitutional | Read More »
Which two voting constituencies would you suppose despise Obama the most these days? I’m just speculating, because for so many people Hope-n-Change™ has become Hope-You-Won’t-Steal-My-Change™, now that America has gotten to know this jerk. My guess: (1) older citizens who see that he wants to rob Medicare to fund his health care system take-over, and (2) supporters of American military. With his poll numbers consistently | Read More »
It’s really that simple. Obamacare has already been rejected by America. It is manifestly outside the legitimate purview of the government in a free country. It is fiscally irresponsible on an epic level. The “bill” being passed around in the Senate is a blank slate to be signed at the bottom, with the details to be filled out later by Democrats, likely by people whose | Read More »
If Al Sharpton ever actually earned the title “Reverend”, I’d sure like to hear about it. Did this talking pile of pig-crap ever actually pastor a church? That would be a sad, unshepherded flock if so. Irrelevant Al is bleating again, in the oh-so-unsurprising matter that has come to light recently. He’s unhappy, and the left-biased media wants to make sure you hear about it, | Read More »
From the diaries, by Erick. If you are judged by the enemies you accumulate, Honduras is one of the better republics around — all the local tinpot Marxist despots in the region, one that would like to be (Ortega), and the cherry on top : the world’s lone Superpower, led by a radical Marxist sympathizer who has already acted against Honduras and signaled that the | Read More »
Promoted from the diaries by Erick From the lips of Obama at the United Freak Show last week: No one nation can or should try to dominate another nation. No world order that elevates one nation or group of people over another will succeed. . [snip] . There are basic principles that are universal; there are certain truths which are self-evident — and the United | Read More »
[h/t Hunter Baker and Robert Sloan at AmSpec] In an interview this week with Wall Street Journal‘s “Deal Journal” column, noted film-maker Michael Moore speaks out about soon-to-be released Capitalism: A Love Story, produced by his own film production company, Dog Eat Dog Films. In the interview he suggested some changes in the ownership and decision-making structure of his own company*: My role is not | Read More »
[UPDATE 6:30 EDT : the government has imposed a curfew from 4pm today till 6am tomorrow] Multiple sources (Reuters) (AP) report that ousted and exiled former president Manuel Zelaya is back in Honduras, hidden for the moment in somebody’s embassy and therefore out of the reach of authorities, who have promised to arrest him and try him for treason if he re-appears on sovereign Honduran | Read More »
During the 2008 presidential campaign, Obama’s 20-year association with preacher Jeremiah Wright became toxic when the magnitude of Wright’s anti-Americanism and racism came to light. When pressed, Obama grudgingly distanced himself from Wright, carefully orchestrated and packaged by the press as some sort of ‘falling out’. He first said “I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community” before later conceding | Read More »
The cure for sinking poll numbers – more lollipops! . And my very own newspapers! If you get your news primarily from the typical newspapers and alphabet-soup TV networks (ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, et al) then: Van Jones must be some kind of NBA center or NFL lineman, just like Johnny Malibu, Truck Johnson, or Tractor Traylor. The words ACORN, hidden cameras, underage prostitution, | Read More »
You may have missed this crisis if you get your news from the alphabet soup partisan media, who have mostly failed to cover it except to misrepresent it in favor of Obama. You are probably not surprised to find that Poland and the Czech Republic are not the only loyal and faithful American allies getting screwed by the Obama Administration these days. The ongoing drama | Read More »
You did not suffer under the delusion that Democrats are ashamed of their America-haters, cretins, adulterers, racists, perjurers, thieves, tax cheats, and other criminals, did you? Did you now? September 6 – Van Jones resigns under pressure as Obama’s ‘Green Jobs Czar’. September 9 – He’s back at the Center for American Progress, where he was previously a Senior Fellow. Not that there’s anything wrong | Read More »
A couple of days ago Barack Obama gave a speech for which he had demanded a prime-time joint session of Congress, an occasion nearly always reserved for national emergencies or extraordinary times. This session was called merely so Obama could mug in front of the cameras and deliver a bitterly partisan invective in hopes of shoring up badly sagging support for the unpopular Democrat proposal | Read More »
Yet another awesomely done video commemorating 9/11 and the GWOT, by country music, aka the patriotic wing of pop culture. . [h/t]Exposing Liberal Lies We must never forget.
