Obama Presidency – Wherefore Art Thou?
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 13th at 07:49 AM |
We’ve been pretty harsh on our young President. We’ve taken him to task on virtually every word and every item of his agenda… with good reason. Those of us who managed not to be mesmerized by the glitzy rock concert/camp meeting atmosphere that surrounded the unlikely, albeit meteoric, rise of this young first term senator from Illinois were in turn bemused and then alarmed. We | Read More »
Obanostic… Bohica – Bend Over, Here It Comes Again!
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 12th at 09:31 AM |
To paraphrase Sarah Palin, “How’s that hopey changey thing workin’ out for ya?” Mr ‘No family making less than 250,000.00 dollars will see a tax increase’.. ad nauseum. Now Mr Presidential Chameleon has come up with another mind-torturing shape change. Our wonderful leader has discovered that he is ‘AGNOSTIC’ to tax increases for the “middle class”, whatever his definition of that may be this week. | Read More »
Feb 11… Iranian People May Sucker Punch Mullahs.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 11th at 01:32 PM |
The ‘Grand Aya-told-ya-so’ has been muttering through his beard about how the WEST (read Israel and the US) is going to be ‘punched’ on Feb 11, 2010, the anniversary of the overthrow of the Shah of Iran and the advent of the most virulent Islamic fundamentalist regime in the world. The Ayatollahs, with the weak, inept Jimmy Carter at the helm of the United States, | Read More »
If Wishes Were Fishes… Obama’s Pond Would Overflow.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 10th at 11:52 AM |
But they (wishes) are not (fishes) and those nasty and hateful TEABAGGERS pulled the plug on the pond. Shucks, seems like a feller just can’t have any fun any more. Well, President Obama, it hasn’t been any fun out here for Americans for a very long time. Now, you can keep going back to the well and dredging up the specter of the Bush administration | Read More »
Public Unions – Government Glut – Public Menace.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 9th at 12:08 PM |
This is a HUGE problem. Michael Barone has written an excellent in-depth article on this increasingly important issue and you can read it on Townhall.com, Mon Feb 8, 2010. I don’t wish to duplicate his work but I don’t think it can be stated strongly enough. These unions have to be brought under control before it is too late – and it is very late | Read More »
Republicans! Beware Of Obama’s Move To The Right.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 8th at 01:09 PM |
Be wary… be very wary. There are a number of gutless Republicans who would like nothing better than to be thought of as ‘reaching across the aisle’ to find some sort of accommodation with the White House, so as not to be seen as the ‘party of no’. Any Republican who thinks that this may be a good idea has missed the entire message of | Read More »
H1N1, Obama’s Pandemic That Wasn’t – ‘Nuther Snow Job.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 7th at 08:52 AM |
How far would Barack Obama and his administration go in order to gin up support/panic for his signature health care legislation? If you’ll remember, the grandstanding and informational blitz for the ‘UPCOMING’ H1N1 started back around January and February of last year. The Democrats were shouting from the roof tops that “THE PANDEMIC IS COMING, THE PANDEMIC IS COMING”. We HAD to have health care | Read More »
9.7% – What’s Wrong With That Figure?
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 6th at 04:49 AM |
Like every thing else about this Obama Presidency and administration, nothing is straight forward. It’s always a conjuration of smoke and mirrors. It’s just like Rush Limbaugh used to say about the Clinton administration, “These people get out of bed in the morning saying to themselves, ‘HOW CAN WE FOOL THEM TODAY?’ “ Fact is, it’s getting a lot harder to do. The leftists can | Read More »
Cortex Loses Its Courage.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 5th at 12:47 PM |
One of the many sites on which this column is posted is/was Political Cortex. In the beginning we were on half a dozen or so sites and Political Cortex was one of them. It really sort of surprised me given the decidedly left-leaning bent of most of the articles and comments on their site. Wonderful I thought. A leftie site that is fair enough to | Read More »
Congressional Quail Break For Cover – Conservative Bird Hunt.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | February 4th at 05:28 AM |
IT’S MAGIC! Congressional leftists are finding all sorts of mainstream centrist and even (gasp) right of center issues to take up… as they scatter in all directions trying to distance themselves from a President and a Democratic party leadership who they see as leading them down a rocky road to destruction. This magic transformation has come about, as predicted by yours truly, by the turn | Read More »
