Vice Presidents don’t matter even if they aren’t Jack Kennedy

    Joe Biden is no Jack Kennedy or Neil Kinnock, but he is from a slave state that Obama should carry Nothing to see here unless Vice President Biden turns plugs into real hair, water into wine and food stamps into well-paying jobs; and Obama promises to resign the presidency after failing to stop the oceans from rising. Does anyone think that Gore secured victory for | Read More »

    Obama’s post-debate executive order path to re-election

    Obamacare Lobbyist-in-Chief urges Obama to better feel voters’ pain while other Democrats demand get tough strategy The world changed for non-Democrats before the 2010 GOP election landslide, but since Pew, Gallup and Rasmussen only yesterday counted the right beans, Democrats and inside the beltway Republicans only just now joined the rest of us: President Barack Obama is getting conflicting advice on how to rebound from his | Read More »

    Obama’s BLS gobbledygook, cooked jobs book trifecta and Columbus

    Would the Bureau of Labor Statistics have considered the 40-man crew of Columbus’s shipwrecked Santa Maria (pictured) stranded on Hispaniola, as having dropped out of the work force altogether, or to have accepted part-time jobs? Millions of self-”employed” Americans whose phones stopped ringing after Noon on Thursdays since the 2008 bursting of the housing bubble and the millions that have of late eschewed filing job application | Read More »

    But in Georgia…voters should weigh Barrow against his Democratic Party

    In a recent issue of Atlanta Times News, Mike DeVine admonished DeKalb County voters to send only Republicans to represent them in Washington, D.C. given the desperate need to repeal Obamacare and pass economic growth-friendly legislation so that a real recovery can commence across the Fruited Plain, including in the Peach State. But given the circumstance in portions of Georgia south of DeKalb, this Sandlapper thinks an | Read More »

    Romneycare as states rights debating point

    Remember those conservatives during the Republican presidential primaries that thought Romneycare would prevent Mitt from being able to take on Obamacare? I do. I was one of them. We were wrong. Rarely have we had a true back and forth debate between presidential candidates of opposing parties like we did last night. Thanks to Mitt Romney’s initiative and Jim Lehrer’s wisdom to let it flow, and to Hades | Read More »

    Obama wouldn’t deserve re-election even if economy boomed today

    Would a President Bill Clinton have been incapable of saying yes to the Keystone Pipeline? We tire of the narrative foisted upon us by the Media faction of the Democratic Party that suggests signs of an uptick in economic activity, and especially jobs created, should portend an increase in expected votes for President Barack Obama’s re-election. Weeks ago we tired of the “Bill Clinton convention | Read More »

    Since Romney is headed for a landslide victory, isn’t it time to seek a mandate?

    As some conservatives contend, Mitt Romney may well be running a timid campaign, but for a decidedly different reason than did John McCain. Given the disaster that has been life under Obama for the last four years, the 2012 GOP presidential nominee could justifiably assume that the only way he could lose to the incumbent would be to commit a huge verbal gaffe. Sadly, too | Read More »

    After-election flexibility? US has few allies left for Obama to betray

    Re-election of Barack Obama would hand over the future to those that punish with death the worship of any God whose “prophet” is not Mohammad An open mike in Seoul revealed a re-elected President Obama poised to gut Reagan’s missile defense that reduced the evil Soviet Union empire to the borders of Vladimir Putin’s Russia, but hasn’t his pre-election “flexibility”, including the moral equivalence between Holocaust-deniers and | Read More »

    Obama throws cAARP-ing seniors over short term debt cliff

    No president could have fixed the inherited mess in just four years and this President wants to stay inside Washington where, by his own admission, he can’t fix it? See also private sector, that didn’t build itself, is doing fine. The story should have been the courage of Daniel aka Paul Ryan to venture into the Lion’s Den aka AARP aka just another faction of the | Read More »

    Must Egypt hold 52 Americans for 444 days before we cut off aid?

    President Barack Hussein Obama is no James Earl Carter Before “extremists” overthrew the America’s ally in the Shah of Iran, then President Carter signaled his willingness, and even desire, to work with the Ayatollah Khomeini, since he was a “religious” man. Before the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, Carter famously chided his fellow Americans for their “inordinate fear” of Communism. But, unlike the Citizen of the World | Read More »

    The 47%-ers for Mitt

    Limousine liberals and government workers for Obama are not among The 47% Who knew that private political fundraisers produce bitter clinger identifications across the political spectrum? Famously during the 2008 presidential campaign, thanks solely to conservative media, Barack Obama was revealed to have identified Democratic primary voters for Hillary in Pennsylvania as racist, religious gun nuts. Last May, Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, in a | Read More »

    The Stalinization Obamanation goes beyond mere Hollywood black lists

    Obama swore second oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of Arab Street Sensibilities? The Obama Administration enlisted Los Angeles County deputies to arrest a private film maker in the wee hours of Saturday morning, essentially re-enacting the Sedition Act of 1918 via executive fiat: Just after midnight Saturday morning, authorities descended on the Cerritos [California] home of the man believed to be the filmmaker behind | Read More »

    Obama takes first of 12 steps: Egypt is not a U.S. ally

    Egypt was an ally since Camp David and until Obama planted Muslim Brotherhood seeds during the Arab Spring Iran was a key U.S. ally before President Jimmy Carter through the Shah under the bus after famously declaring that he could deal with the Ayatollah Khomeini since he as “a religious man.” Yesterday, the former president distanced himself from the statement of the current occupant of | Read More »

    911×11: Can after-election Obama flexibility be trusted?

    Yes, Osama bin Laden was killed under President Barack Obama’s watch, but does anyone think his presence as Commander-in-Chief deters any terrorist organization, state terror sponsors or even Russia? As he was leaning toward Medvedev in Seoul, Obama was overheard asking for time – “particularly with missile defense” – until he is in a better position politically to resolve such issues. “I understand your message about | Read More »

    Obama promises FDR-like experimentation during second Great Depression

    I guess the private sector was doing fine then too, since the poor got to hear periodic fireside chats on the latest anti-business experiment Last night during his indoor speech accepting the presidential nomination of the Democratic Party in Charlotte, we finally got the non-Hope & Change truth from Barack Obama: And the truth is, it will take more than a few years for us to solve | Read More »

    The Big Lie from Democrats’ Big Creep

    America has never been a “you’re on your own, winner take all” society By most accounts, former President Bill Clinton delivered a rousing speech last night in Charlotte nominating President Barack Obama for re-election at the Democratic National Convention. Clinton summed up the choice Americans will face on Election Day, thusly: “The most important question is, what kind of country do you want to live in? | Read More »

    The Big Creep: Not only isn’t Obama, Bill Clinton; neither is Bill Clinton

    DNC threatens to out Black & White TV the RNC with tonight’s Der Schliekmeister rerun Even before my Summer of 2001 conservative epiphany after 18 years a Democratic Party official, I used to chastise fellow Democrats for emphasizing President Bill Clinton’s glib wit on TV as the main reason for their support. The presidency is not a TV show, I would urge. No, politicians should | Read More »

    Democrats, primarily, caused the recession and prevent a real recovery

    But didn’t Democrat Obama inherit “the mess” from Republican Bush and haven’t congressional Republicans obstructed Obama’s recovery agenda? This is how a Democratic Party, with no Gene McCarthy (pictured), feels compelled to frame re-election issues given a failed incumbent with no record of popular achievements to run on. At least LBJ declined to run and Ted Kennedy challenged Carter in 1980, but I digress. It | Read More »

    Labor, preferably in a union, but only at Obama’s indulgence, Day

    Labor, preferably in a union, but only at Obama’s indulgence, Day It hurts this proud son and grandson of former Brotherhood Railway Carmen (TCU) union members, and me their former union lawyer, to say this, especially given how I personally benefitted from the gains of that particular union, but I think Labor Day, as it has evolved, should be abolished. I would be in favor | Read More »

    Labor not in Camel-Not

    Less government union Labor per Day, please The original meanings of many American national holidays, including tomorrow’s The holiday celebrating labor was originally celebrated on a Tuesday, but with its and other holiday’s removal to Mondays, the celebration of leisure, and especially the three-day weekend variety for federal employees, now rules the day.
