Obama “open” to Puerto Rican statehood
By: greghalvorson (Diary) | May 29th at 03:13 PM |
Obama “open” to Puerto Rico statehood Call it “Amnesty, East Coast style,” call it “the Bilingual Express,” but in keeping with the theme of “fundamental transformation,” the task force on Puerto Rican statehood (yes, there is one) has been quietly scheming to move this ball forward. Associate Attorney General, Thomas Perrelli, addressing “taskers,” recently shared some high-level thoughts: “President Obama is open to the idea | Read More »
Obama visits, workers lose pay

Obama visits, workers lose pay Green jobs! Yes, while the Gulf of Mexico (“that ocean,” according to Janet Napolitano) slicks with crude, and a prime contributor to Obama plugs the leak, the president managed to visit California. Obama, being a “regular guy,” sought to couple his appearance at a $17,000 per/plate fundraiser for Babs Boxer with a next-day, touch-the-people event. Green jobs, created by him, | Read More »
Obama on beheading: “It captured the world’s imagination.”

Obama on beheading: “It captured the world’s imagination.” The Daniel Pearl Press Freedom Act, which authorizes the State Department to include information about attacks on journalists in its human rights reports, was recently signed by president Obama. This is remarkable for two reasons: 1) Now, when asked whether there’s anything Obama has done that I support, I can enthusiastically answer, “The DPPFA!” and 2) because | Read More »

Sonoran lawmakers say returning citizens are a burden

Sonoran lawmakers say returning citizens are a burden You can’t make this up. On the heels of Eric Holder condemning Arizona’s SB 1070, which he HASN’T READ, comes a verbal lambasting by Sonoran officials. A delegation from the border state recently traveled to Tucson where, whining (in Spanish), they explained that the law “will have devastating consequences.” Returning countrymen will apparently burden schools, compete for | Read More »

Governor Christie schools reporter Do you want to see what a leader looks like? How a pol with no tolerance for fools asserts pragmatism?

Thieves steal Mojave cross Remember the Mojave Desert War Memorial? The one the ACLU wanted to tear down? On April 28th, the Supreme Court saved it, handing Veterans a victory, but as of last night (May11th), it’s gone. Stolen. Someone cut the bolts, felled the cross, and disappeared. The theft adds to the lunacy playing out across the nation—kids being asked to remove patriotic clothes; | Read More »
SCOTUS pick gels with Obama narcissism
By: greghalvorson (Diary) | May 11th at 05:13 AM |
SCOTUS pick gels with Obama narcissism By now, anyone with a working knowledge of narcissism recognizes the pathological condition of the president. Even liberals concede that the man who sends thrills up Chris Mathews’ leg is self-absorbed. It therefore makes sense that Elena Kagan, his Solicitor General, is the SCOTUS nominee. In 2005, at a Harvard luncheon, Ms. Kagan waxed eloquent on Obama. She’d had | Read More »
Obama sexualizes daughters, jokes about dropping predator drone
By: greghalvorson (Diary) | May 7th at 01:23 PM |
A small thing? Perhaps. Certainly nothing to Tea Party over. But since it’s stuck in my craw, I want to address the Huckster-in-Chief at last weekend’s gala. The White House Correspondence Dinner is an annual opportunity for humorless politicians to poke fun at themselves. Sometimes, it’s funny. Sometimes, it’s torture. But now, thanks to Obama, it’s sometimes disturbing. To wit: the Waggish One was half-way | Read More »
