Late last Monday I vowed to ignore talk radio, news and opinion websites of any kind, as well a cable or nightly news stations. The last memory I have Campaign 2012 is of Romney’s audio recording accurately describing the Democratic base. Naturally the media couldn’t have this (bitter clingers charge apparently was acceptable in 2008) and likely did what the White House wanted and attacked | Read More »
As the late George Steinbrenner would say while in the throes of a New York Yankees losing streak, “Enough is enough!” The 2012 presidential election has officially worn on me to the point where: 1. Hearing Barack Obama’s snake-oily slathered voice makes me cringe; 2. Watching Mitt Romney’s empty campaign makes me click off the television in disgust; 3. I realize the mainstream media is beyond redemption | Read More »
Late last month a British writer named Adam Shaw, writing for the American Thinker, proposed a theory that Republicans Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan might be in much better shape against President Barack Obama than is reflected in polling data. He argues that an early 1990s phenomenon in the United Kingdom called “the Shy Tory” factor — in which polls overwhelmingly showed Labour (liberals) candidates | Read More »
Should President Barack Obama lose reelection this November – and I’m not convinced that he will – his dismal stewardship of the economy and reckless spending will be primary reasons, but I also believe two other variables will have played a part. 1. The “You didn’t build that” speech made in Roanoke, Va. Heard in its entirety and not just one brief sound bite, it | Read More »
Rarely is it decent to revel in someone else’s self-inflicted misfortune, but it happens all the time (Todd Akin, anyone?). I am guilty of it today, Aug. 29, 2012, when journalist David Chalian’s disdain for the Republican party went viral. David Chalian up until a few hours ago was Yahoo! News’ Washington Bureau director who was covering the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla. Just a few | Read More »
Why am I, a New Jersey resident, furious with Todd Akin? The Missouri Republican Senate candidate’s breathtaking ignorance and stupidity regarding rape and conception not only immediately imperiled GOP chances to pick up a winnable seat held by the unpopular Claire McCaskill, but gave Democrats ammunition to lob at Republicans up and down ballots nationwide, including Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. Everyone on the planet | Read More »
Really. What was Todd Akin thinking when he uttered the phrase “legitimate rape”? What was throbbing through his gray matter that made him state that women who are in the process of being raped can somehow internally prevent fertilization? I listened to Todd Akin mount an incoherent apology/defense on Sean Hannity’s radio show today and heard the nonsensical ramblings of a politician who clearly isn’t aware that his | Read More »
What follows is the text of a July 9, 2012, ABC News report that should have been aired but wasn’t due to a power failure at network headquarters (I cannot believe this has only come to light now): GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Special Investigative Reporter Brian Ross is checking in with us with what could very well be the defining political moment in 2012. BRIAN ROSS: George, we have some | Read More »
The Most Interesting Man in the World! His Social Security Number can unlock most vaults. Dead people actively campaign for him. The New York Times seeks his endorsement. His fundraisers have brought small nations out of debt. Jesus has asked him what he would do. He leaves Barack Obama speechless. He is (ka-boom!) The Most Interesting Man in the World. “I don’t always vote Republican, | Read More »
