The Obama Energy Plan: Inflating your tires and getting regular tune-ups can save you as much gas as we’ll get from drilling.
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 31st at 01:12 PM |
There you go ladies and gentlemen. Barack Obama has let loose with where he actually stands — that is directly against you, the American people. You can listen to Rush talking about it here. He rightly draws the connection to Jimmy Carter’s policies. Next, I suppose, Obama will advocate the maximum speed limit be 55 mph again. First, let’s point out that he’s full of | Read More »
Obama Pre-emptively Pulls Race Card Then Goes Back to Staring at His Reflection in the Stream
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 31st at 06:23 AM |
Well done you effete snob, but race has nothing to do with it.* Barack Obama has finally pulled the race card against John McCain and the Republicans. You know, Mr. “I transcend politics” has finally, tacitly admitted he is just a typical politician by accusing those who don’t like him of being racist. “Nobody thinks that Bush or McCain have a real answer for the | Read More »

Is it Okay to Vote Against a Candidate Because of His Race?
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 30th at 01:38 PM |
UPDATED and BUMPED: According to the Politico late yesterday, the Democrats have denied a request by Cohen for money to fight off Nikki Tinker. But, the Congressional Black Caucus has given Nikki Tinker $5,000.00 and additional fundraising support from Stephanie Tubbs Jones. The answer to the question is no. It is, in fact, the only acceptable answer and if you think otherwise, RedState is not | Read More »

Sarah Lai Strickland Totally Downplays Tony Rezko, Bill Ayers, and Marilyn Katz
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 29th at 05:40 PM |
Check this out. Wired blogger Sarah Lai Strickland has a look at the GOP’s Facebook parody site of Obama. In it, she notes: Rezko, a Chicago landlord, *most recently was in the headlines for being on trial for corruption*. Ayers, now a university professor, was a member of the violent 1960s group The Weather Underground, and Katz, now a public-relations consultant, was a former student | Read More »
Obama Leaked His Prayer to Press Before He Didn’t
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 28th at 05:43 PM |
Though there was a lot of outrage expressed over someone pulling Obama’s prayer out of the Western Wall, I personally figured he’d focus grouped the heck out of it first, knowing someone was going to get hold of it. Well, it appears I was probably right. In fact, according to the Israeli paper that published Obama’s prayer, he, well, from the New Republic: the Obama | Read More »
Obama’s Crooks and Cronies a/k/a His Economic Policy Team
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 28th at 02:53 PM |
Today Barack Obama met with his economic policy advisers. Let’s review who they are. First, there is St. Robert Rubin. The media prefers us to remember Rubin as the savior of the economy; such a good Secretary of the Treasury, Bush wanted a Democrat and found Hank Paulson. They don’t like to talk about this. Yeah, that’s right, Robert Rubin has his hands in Citigroup, | Read More »
Obama Surrogate Debbie Wasserman Schultz Says “Surge Was Not Effective.”
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 28th at 10:48 AM |
This is a stunning interview with Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Just get a load of this part: CBSNews.com: But isn’t it somewhat ironic that it may be the surge that he opposed, that John McCain supported, that allows Senator Obama, if he becomes president, to begin withdrawing troops from a much more stable situation? Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz: Look, **the whole stated purpose of the | Read More »
Barack Obama Blew Off Troops According to Email Now Retracted by Captain Jeff Porter
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 28th at 08:42 AM |
Yesterday, I pointed out that it does not matter if Barack Obama actually did blow off the troops, as an email from Captain Jeffrey S. Porter reported to friends and family back home. The email got onto the internet and spread like wildfire. The point is not that the email is true. The point is that a lot of people who do not really even | Read More »
This is probably not true, but . . .
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 27th at 08:30 PM |
The following is circulating rapidly around the internets. In fact, it is circulating faster than the “Barack Hussein Obama is a closet jihadist” chain emails of yore. Hello everyone, As you know I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to “The War Zone”. I wanted | Read More »
The Gospel of Obamessiah According to Gerard Baker
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 25th at 09:35 AM |
Go here. And it came to pass, in the eighth year of the reign of the evil Bush the Younger (The Ignorant), when the whole land from the Arabian desert to the shores of the Great Lakes had been laid barren, that a Child appeared in the wilderness. The Child was blessed in looks and intellect. Scion of a simple family, offspring of a miraculous | Read More »
RedState Graphic Design Contest 3: Obama Ditches Wounded Troops For Shopping in Berlin
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 24th at 06:09 PM |
Here are the rules. Here’s your prize for this one: a coffee mug from the RedState Store. There is no starting picture here. Here is the topic: Barack Obama went to Germany and said to the German people he was not speaking as a candidate for office, but as a citizen of the world. He then cancelled a trip to visit wounded soldiers at Landstuhl | Read More »
Bar Complaint Filed Against Obama For His Lack of Honesty
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 24th at 09:31 AM |
Though Obama has not released his bar application (transparency is just a bumper sticker for him), someone has filed a bar complaint. The complaint charges Barack Obama with failing to disclose his drug use. As I’ve written about in the past, bar applications are lengthy things to fill out and they go into a host of details from drug use to parking tickets. Given how | Read More »
Barack Obamessiah Goes To Berlin: Not Since 1939 Have So Many Germans Turned Out To Hear A Politician in Berlin
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 24th at 08:43 AM |
Barack Obama is set to speak at the Victory Column in Berlin. The Victory Column commemorates Germany’s last military victory over France and Austria in the last 1860′s – early 1870′s. From that link: Berlin authorities say that as many as a million people could attend. Four TV stations are broadcasting the entire speech, and the rest are scrambling to secure prime locations at the | Read More »
The Potemkin Candidate Benefits From Leni Riefenstahl’s Heir
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 23rd at 08:46 AM |
In Israel, Barack Obama was twice given the chance to answer the question, “Can you ensure that there will be no second Holocaust?” Both times Obama declined to answer. The American media did nothing to engage Obama on the issue. Obama has likewise stripped the American flag from the back of his new 757 in favor of his campaign logo. The American media has done | Read More »
Will Barack Obama Use Islamofascist Terrorists For Security?
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 22nd at 08:27 PM |
Yesterday I saw the World Net Daily article suggesting Islamofascist terrorist organizations, including the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, will be providing security for Obama in Palestinian territory. Tony Blair, in a recent trip to Israel, cancelled a trip into Palestinian territory because the Palestinians intended that arrangement for him. I did not blog this then because I tend to want other sources to back up | Read More »
Mike Allen pushes a left wing smear against McCain and treats it as his own
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 22nd at 05:35 AM |
Mike Allen at the Politico has an article that says all of McCain’s gaffes are raising questions about his age. The McCain campaign says Obama has had plenty of flubs of his own, including a reference to “57 states” and a string of misstated place names during the primaries that Republicans gleefully sent around as YouTubes. But the mistakes raise a serious, if uncomfortable question: | Read More »
