    Restoring The Republic VI: Destroy The America Left

    By: Repair_Man_Jack (Diary)  |  May 16th at 11:38 AM  | 

    What does Eric Holder really think of his fellow Americans? It’s a rhetorical question. I can’t read his mind and smut is not my thing. What does the average American Leftist really believe about Americans with whom they disagree? If Dr. Sternberg accurately pegged The Modern Left; perhaps this clip from The Matrix provides us the answer (Start at 1:55). Take out the words “Human Beings” and substitute “Conservatism” or “Conservative” instead, and you will see what Modern Liberals truly think of Modern Conservatives as human beings.

    If you willing continue to compromise with those who believe that you are a virus, do not expect your life to substantially get any better any time soon. If you think well of those who consider you a cockroach, do you not admit to the universe that they are your masters? Within the limits of law and reason, we must oppose, defang, and destroy every functioning liberal that we can possibly get our hands on.

    Don’t Make it About Barack Obama

    By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  May 16th at 11:07 AM  | 

    I have to agree with Ben Domenech from the Transom this morning. Republicans will lose if they try to make the IRS scandal about Barack Obama. We are not going to convince a majority of Americans who voted for him that they were wrong. We spent the last four years trying that. As Domenech noted this morning: Here’s the hard thing Republicans have to do | Read More »

    AG Holder Not Familiar With Born Alive Infant Protection Act Enforcement

    AG Holder Not Familiar With Born Alive Infant Protection Act Enforcement

    Now that abortionist Kermit Gosnell has been convicted of murdering three infants born alive in his Philadelphia house of horrors, a new case has come to light in Houston, TX.  Abortionist Douglas Karpen is accused of, among other heinous acts, twisting the heads off living babies.  Unfortunately, infants being born alive and subsequently murdered during botched abortions has been happening in the United States for | Read More »

    On today’s edition of Coffee and Markets, Brad Jackson and Ben Domenech are joined by Senator Mike Lee to discuss the growing scandal at the IRS, its constitutional implications and his efforts to protect your emails from the feds. Then Ben and Brad discuss the political opportunities and traps that Republicans face with these brewing scandals.

    Republicans & GOP Donors Should Focus Here

    By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  May 16th at 04:30 AM  | 

    We are all — all of us — attracted to shiny objects. Oftentimes we fixate on the shiny object and never see past the shine to what the object actually is or what it can actually do for us or whether it is even a distraction. The IRS scandal is the latest shiny object on which the GOP will fixate. But if, instead of fixating, | Read More »

    Tech at Night: Bitcoin’s central bankers. Kim Dotcom censors Mega.

    By: Neil Stevens (Diary)  |  May 16th at 02:30 AM  | 

    Tech at Night

    Some fascinating Bitcoin developments: As I predicted, Mt. Gox just got trouble with its US dollar processor, Dwolla. Meanwhile it comes out that a cabal of developers has de facto control over the Bitcoin network and is devaluing very small wallets. The net effect of this is to reduce the money supply, deflating Bitcoin to benefit those with large holdings.

    So even as Bitcoin is revealed to have its own central bankers, the new Megaupload is getting censored per New Zealand law, as Kim Dotcom weighs (heavily) in against Obama to attempt to distract from this censorship.

    Star Trek Into Darkness

    By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  May 15th at 11:41 PM  | 

    Yes, a movie review from your Editor. I went to Star Trek: Into Darkness tonight. I liked it in the way you might like a good piece of escapism, but it left me a bit empty. The JJ Abrams concept was supposed to be a reboot of the Star Trek franchise — a way to restart with the characters we love, but with a clean | Read More »

    Union Bosses Demand Nuclear Option On Obama’s Flawed NLRB & Labor Nominations

    By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  May 15th at 11:30 PM  | 

    NLRB Members chalk

    As surely as union bosses want a union-friendly NLRB and Department of Labor to be fully operational, short-sighted Democrats must also realize that political winds shift (see above-referenced scandals)–just as they did in 1980, when unions represented 25% of the workforce (and 1947 and 1959 before that).

    Embattled Eric Holder Promises Gun Control

    By: Dana Loesch (Diary)  |  May 15th at 08:20 PM  | 

    Eric Holder may be under intense scrutiny for his department’s part in wiretapping AP phones, seizing phone records, allowing IRS persecution, and gun-running, but that doesn’t mean his goal of gun control is in the backseat. During an interview with NPR, Holder reiterated his desire for gun control by focusing on impeding access and drying up supply, bold my emphasis: Holder stated that although the | Read More »

    IRS Persecution Is A War On Women

    By: Dana Loesch (Diary)  |  May 15th at 08:05 PM  | 

    Forget “binders full of women” — the IRS’s persecution of hundreds of tea party groups is the real war on women. I co-founded the movement in my hometown of St. Louis and have travelled the country with various tea party groups and I’ve seen it first hand: the tea party movement was predominately led by women. It isn’t a slight to our men; in speech after speech | Read More »

    Skynet on the Potomac

    By: John Hayward  |  May 15th at 03:33 PM  | 

    Obama’s favorite henchman, David Axelrod, deployed the famed Incompetence Defense on behalf of the embattled President during an MSNBC appearance on Wednesday.  That’s the hot new line from Obama apologists: he’s so incredibly inept that he can’t be held responsible for anything his Administration does.  He golfs, he raises money, he takes a lot of vacations… there’s not much time left over for management.  He learns | Read More »

    Choreographing The News On The DOJ’s AP Investigation With Media Matters

    By: Repair_Man_Jack (Diary)  |  May 15th at 11:30 AM  | 

    While the ORS* busies itself with the deliberate political harassment of Barack Obama’s political opponents, his Department of Justice seems to be busily engaged in doing similar things to members of the previously untouchable 4th Estate. Some of these previously loyal Professional Democratic Party Activists with press credentials have the utter effrontery to have gotten their backs up. Jake Tapper sticks it to Jay Carney in the exchange below.

    Jake Tapper, the senior White House correspondent for ABC News, asked White House Press Secretary Jay Carney how public support of those journalists’ work “square[s] with the fact that this administration has been so aggressively trying to stop aggressive journalism in the United States by using the Espionage Act to take whistleblowers to court. There just seems to be a disconnect here,” Tapper added. “You want aggressive journalism abroad; you just don’t want it in the United States.”

    (HT: Huffington Post)

    As the vassals of Barack Obama busily minding the 4th Estate threaten to go rogue and commit spontaneous acts of professional reportage, the alarm claxon sounds and the highly trained manipulators of Media Matters man the trebuchets in defense of the empire. They tell us all what key issues must be raised. A discussion can’t flow freely – it must be channelized in the manner suggested below.

    IRS Targeted Well-Known Christian Ministries

    By: toddstarnes (Diary)  |  May 15th at 11:17 AM  | 

    Several well-known religious organizations say they were targeted by the Internal Revenue Service, including the ministry founded by famed evangelist Billy Graham and a 180-year-old Baptist newspaper, Fox News has learned. Among the ministries targeted are the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, Samaritan’s Purse and the Biblical Recorder – the newspaper of the North Carolina Baptist State Convention. The revelations seem to indicate the IRS was | Read More »

    Love, Sin and Grace in the Christian University

    On today’s edition of Coffee and Markets, Brad Jackson and Allysen Efferson are joined by by RJ Snell to discuss his new book Authentic Cosmopolitanism: Love, Sin, and Grace in the Christian University, the nature of sin, and a normative vision for Christian higher education.

    I know, I know: you are wounded unto death about such a thing occurring. Wounded unto death. Attorney General Eric Holder will testify before the House Judiciary Committee Wednesday, where Republicans say they’ll grill him about the Justice Department’s secret review of Associated Press phone records and the IRS targeting of conservative groups for extra tax scrutiny, among other issues. The oversight hearing had already | Read More »
