Last August, the Washington Post sold Newsweak Newsweek magazine for a buck to a 91-year old stereo equipment magnate Sidney Harman, who also assumed the periodical’s debt. Three months later the Daily Beast merged with Newsweek. The cheap purchase price from the Newsweek buy has allowed the Daily Beast to entice Andrew “Excitable Andy” Sullivan, the “conservative” pot-smoker and “expert to the masses” on all | Read More »
I’ve seen arrogance before, but I’ve never seen such arrogance in the federal government as it is exhibited by the lawless Obama regime. Even after Gov. Rick Scott (R-FL) rejected $2.4 billion for what would eventually be the expensive high-speed rail boondoggle subsidized by Florida’s taxpayers, the attempt by U.S. Senator Bill Nelson (D-FL) to put the Democratic Party’s interest ahead of the state he | Read More »
The South Dakota state legislature recently put together a bill to update a justifiable homicide law that added protecting the unborn from criminal harm in its classification. Pro-abortion fanatics had a cow. The deceit was so bad the legislature shelved the bill for now; they wouldn’t even work on fixing the language in the bill. The zealots are back in force as Nebraska and Iowa | Read More »
Brian Beutler at TPM said Republican Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker “ginned up” a “budget shortfall“. As if on cue, Jamelle Bouie at The American Prospect said Walker’s deficit reducing plan was “a ginned up crisis“. Political fiction writer Steven Benen (that’s what his posts are) says Walker is insincere. The Constitutionally confused Ezra Klein claims the “Badger State was actually in pretty good shape. It | Read More »
You know, there are still a lot of people who believe President Obama is a Muslim (I’m with Ann Coulter; I think he’s an atheist). He insists he’s a Christian who prays frequently. Members of the Democrat media keep bringing this up to various Republicans and conservatives, usually with a birther question to go with it, in order to keep this going as an issue | Read More »
The Kermit Gosnall revelations haven’t slowed down the pro-abortion zealots in their mission to advance infanticide. Kate Sheppard of Mother Jones claims a new bill making its way through the South Dakota state legislature would justify the murder of abortion providers. The bill passed by the SD House Judiciary Committee does no such thing. But here’s the deal, as recounted by Sheppard [emphasis mine]: The | Read More »
We all know about the left’s horrible attacks on Sarah Palin. Although I’m sure it’s not the first time, but the left isn’t fond of Herman Cain either. Not only because he is a successful conservative, but because he has committed the liberal crime of being a successful conservative who is black and not a Democrat. Via Power Line, lefty trash AlterNet (I won’t link | Read More »
Speaking of petulant children, the leftosphere is “up in arms” over the Chamber of Commerce allegedly targeting the “good folks” at Think Progress and the SEIU, other groups, along with Brad Friedman. Their real complaint is that the Chamber is doing to these lefties what the lefties do to conservatives.
George Soros poo-flinger Eric Boehlert tries his hand at “journalism” with ‘FOX NEWS INSIDER: “Stuff Is Just Made Up”‘. Boehlert claims he’s been talking to an anonymous former Fox News employee about how the cable channel does not do the news, strictly being some kind of “Republicans-only club”. There is no indication of when this supposed employee worked at FNC, whether the supposed employee was | Read More »
I don’t know if the Soros puppets at his Media Matters are Christians, but I have my doubts. During yesterday’s National Prayer Breakfast, President Obama shared this passage from Isaiah 40:31: “Those who wait on the Lord will soar on wings like eagles, and they will run and not be weary, and they will walk and not faint,” the president said during a speech to | Read More »
You know, I get more woozy listening to Barack Obama than I do drinking several boilermakers, each consisting of a shot of my favorite tequila (Sauza Conmemorativo) with a beer chaser (I also like 1800 Reposado). I’m listening to Barack Obama speak on Mark Levin’s show and it makes my head spin (full video here). All of a sudden we have a replay of history | Read More »
Greg Sargent and Adam Serwer get paid to be advocates for a leftist agenda via the Democratic Party. Serwer, who normally writes for leftist trash American Prospect has a post on Sargent’s Plum Line blog that is short on the Constitution and the law and long on snark. He links to one of his own posts at American Prospect, which links to another post by | Read More »
I took a glimpse at the left’s next attack on Palin. I thought it so stupid and petty as to be completely undeserving of a comment. I need to remember to stop underestimating how persistent the left is when pushing their deliberate falsehoods. The latest meme is their claim that Palin said the Soviets won the Space Race with Sputnik although it led to the | Read More »
Newsweek has a story that indicates the Obama administration may start pushing gun control. Apparently, gun control groups were not one bit happy that the President failed to mention anything about guns during the SOTU, which the White House says was intentional to avoid the appearance of trying to capitalize on the Tucson tragedy. But not to worry. The administration’s “never let a crisis go | Read More »
The pro-abortion zealots reach to great lengths to justify the barbarity they support. Thers at Whiskey Fire put up a snark-filled “rebuttal” to this RedState post from the Directors, replete with the typical dehumanization of the unborn, as if the unborn were somehow a different species, and an inane accusation that the RedState post might incite violence. But Thers isn’t alone; Media Matters also makes | Read More »
Today marks the 38th anniversary of the infamous Roe v. Wade Supreme Court travesty. As we’ve been horrified to learn, Kermit Gosnall ran a house of horrors that some would call an abortion clinic. If he and the others are guilty of the crimes they have allegedly committed, nothing would please me more than to see him and those others fried for their crimes. But | Read More »
This has to be the first course those on the Left have to take. Don Surber wrote a great piece that says a lot of what I feel. Surber restates the facts: Last week, the left quickly blamed the right for the national tragedy of a shooting spree by a madman who never watched Fox News, never listened to Rush Limbaugh and likely did not | Read More »
But in a good way. Remember that Stuxnet virus? Well, the New York Times has a long story on how it was a joint U.S./Israeli venture to undermine Iran’s nuclear weapons capabilities. The key point is about a third of the way into the piece: The project’s political origins can be found in the last months of the Bush administration. In January 2009, The New | Read More »
The other day, I posted on Sarah Palin’s video regarding last week’s tragedy in Tuscon. I had said at the end that I hoped President Obama would keep politics out of his speech. To be fair, I think he did that; metaphorically speaking, I believe he made it a point to spank the Left, his support, for their completely outrageous behavior (Byron York somewhat disagrees, | Read More »
Promoted from Diaries – Moe Lane. Great stuff (you can get to the video on her Facebook page). I don’t think I’ve seen this better said. Naturally, the Left has started targeting Palin (and targeting is the right word) for her use of the phrase “blood libel”, although the phrase is quite appropriate. Politico was the first to mention it, using the phrase in their | Read More »
