The September unemployment rate of 9.1% is nonsense. This is merely the “official” number that is being disseminated by the Obama-friendly media. If this were a Republican president, we would be hearing about the millions of ‘hidden’ unemployed, about the increasing numbers of homeless (where have those people disappeared to under Obama?), about millions who have given up looking for work and are no longer | Read More »
Herman Cain, the black conservative Republican who is running for president of the United States, is really starting to get under the skin of our Media Left. Because any black who is not a card-carrying socialist is savaged by the “tolerant” Democrats of America. It is the most vicious form of racism imaginable. But par for the course. Remember Clarence Thomas, our black Supreme Court | Read More »
Steven Jobs, the founder of Apple Computer, has died at age 56. Who knows what he might have achieved had he lived another 30 years. But someone else will take up the torch. There’s too much money in computers not to attract many hungry innovators. Only a few will succeed like Jobs, however. Since I am a conservative commentator, I did something that I like | Read More »
For several years now we have been hearing that European violence is coming to America. Yes, the masses are going to rise up and take over and protest austerity and unemployment here just as they have in Greece and France. But first it is interesting to note that those Euro protests are very small groups of people who get big coverage in the left-wing world | Read More »
Have you heard about Cuba?! They are making major reforms! They are going to allow… private auto sales! Yes, indeed, after 52 years of dictatorship a “major” reform is being instituted that is going to bring peace and happiness to all the oppressed Cuban people… the freedom to buy and sell automobiles. Next thing you know they’ll be able to vote in rigged elections! Oh, | Read More »
Activists on the political left from Ralph Nader to Dennis Kucinich are now calling for a presidential primary challenge to Barack Obama. This is only adding insult to Obama’s current political injury. Even savvy political strategist Dick Morris is predicting that Obama could step down to save his party. Meanwhile Wall Street fundraisers who once supported him are backing away from Obama. Obama has even | Read More »
There is a big problem brewing in the Republican party. After nine good candidates – down from ten – have entered the race and have worked hard at getting the presidential nomination, Establishment Republican chiefs like former president George W. Bush and former secretary of state Henry Kissinger are not satisfied and are trying to convince New Jersey governor Chris Christie to enter the race. | Read More »
Here are four things that happened on September 27, 2011: *Donald Trump, whose business is headquartered in New York City, said in an interview on the Sean Hannity radio show that creating jobs in the private sector is “free”. This is true (i.e., the private sector creates wealth, it does not consume wealth like the estimate that Obama’s new economic plan is going to cost | Read More »
Here is an excerpt from washingtonpost.com about the failed California solar energy company Solyndra that closed after receiving $535 million in federal loan guarantees: ‘“Solyndra’s revenues grew from $6 million in 2008 to $100 million in 2009 to $140 million in 2010,” (CEO Brian) Harrison wrote. “For 2011, revenues are projected to nearly double again.”’ So it certainly seems that Solyndra was doing well. But | Read More »
Barack Obama said this on September 24 to an all-black audience at a Congressional Black Caucus dinner: “Take off your bedroom slippers! Put on your marching shoes! Shake it off! Stop complainin’! Stop grumblin’! Stop cryin’! We are going to press on! We have work to do!” he said to arouse his base voters after blacks recently have been expressing anger at Obama’s failed agenda. | Read More »
A new book refutes the centuries-old canard that our second president Thomas Jefferson fathered children with one of his slaves Sarah ‘Sally’ Hemmings. For those of us who have long contended that this story is a hoax that has never been proven, a hoax being perpetrated to slander our Founders, this book is overdue. Because we know how this game is played: Liberals claim that | Read More »
In the September 22 Fox News Republican presidential debate, Texas governor and putative front-runner Rick Perry harmed himself among conservatives with his stand on illegal immigration and with a flat performance. Meanwhile former Godfather’s Pizza chain CEO Herman Cain won the September 24 Florida straw poll by a huge margin after a strong debate performance. Cain took a whopping 37% of the vote, while Perry | Read More »
President Obama’s recent call for $1.5 trillion in new taxes to solve the nation’s budget crisis is frightening on two levels. After all, Obama himself once said in an interview that “the last thing you want to do is raise taxes in the middle of a recession.” You can see the interview with NBC’s Chuck Todd on YouTube. So Obama’s new proposal is alarming in | Read More »
With the recent news that the California solar-energy company Solyndra has closed after receiving $535 million in federal loan guarantees, it is time to do some ‘green’ energy math. First look at history. The environmental movement has evolved in three phases: A) It forced the cleanup of dirty rivers and polluted air. B) It expanded wilderness and obstructed economic development through extremes of law (species | Read More »
Yesterday, September 20, the military’s ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ (DADT) policy on homosexuals and lesbians was officially ended. That repeal is a mistake because it allows gays to serve openly in the military and is highly problematic for the armed services on a number of fronts. DADT should be reinstated as soon as possible. Here are the potential trouble spots: *By allowing homosexuals and lesbians | Read More »
Here are five stories that were in the news recently: *Iranian president and radical Islamic Israel-hater Mahmoud Ahmedinejad recently ordered the release of two American backpackers jailed in his country. Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal were seized in Summer 2009 after they allegedly wandered over the border into Iran while hiking in the mountains of Iraq. They will be released after their families pay Iran | Read More »
(Gawker.com has reported that the New York Times is working on a story claiming that Obama is clinically depressed. Nikitas3 had prepared the editorial below before the Gawker story appeared.) “If you love me, you got to help me pass this bill!” president Obama shouted recently in a speech about the American Jobs Act that he proposed September 8. Do you sense an encroaching desperation | Read More »
There can be only panic among Democrats over the September 13 special election that gave the US House seat in a strongly Jewish and Orthodox Jewish New York City district called NY-9 to conservative Republican Bob Turner. Democrats have held that seat since… 1922! And Turner is no shrinking violet. He is a pro-life Catholic, the TV producer who put Rush Limbaugh on the air | Read More »
The memorial at the 9/11 Ground Zero site in New York City is an affront to decent Americans. You can see it here at www.911memorial.org/ It is a pair of massive black, square holes in the ground, perhaps 50 feet deep and 200 feet on each side, with water flowing over their edges to make waterfalls. They each represent one of the fallen World Trade | Read More »
In 1980, George Bush the Elder was challenging Ronald Reagan for the Republican nomination for president. Bush referred to Reagan’s tax-cutting proposals as “voodoo economics” and the term was picked up by the media and Reagan was battered with it for years. The term still is kicking around although it never is applied to whom it rightfully should be applied – Barack Obama. Because “voodoo | Read More »
