Does the President Think The Government Got Him Where He Is Today?
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 16th at 04:46 AM |
It is a lie premised on Marxism. It really is. It is not hyperbole to say it. Prior to Marx, people did not clearly think of economics as class divided and did not think of the collective overriding the individual. Certainly the thinking was there sociologically, but not crystalized in economics. As Daniel Henninger noted in the Wall Street Journal recently, “There is no theory | Read More »
Blowing up the Romney vs. Obama dead heat meme
By: Dan Spencer (Diary) | July 14th at 02:17 PM |
Friday I spoke with WBYZ 94.5 Radio’s Wild Bill McKubby about my recent article, “Romney extends lead among Independents to 14 percent.” During the interview we blow up mainstream media’s meme that the presidential race tied. We also take Obama to task for his $trillion deficits, his 50% increase in the national debt and his incessant Pinocchio campaign falsehoods. You can listen to the interview | Read More »

Tech at Night: Safe Web Act, Samsung copycatting, Obama’s PROTECT IP/SOPA mastermind rides again [HTML fixed]
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 14th at 02:30 AM |
It’s clear that the Obama administration wants the Safe Web Act renewed, what with the big showy announcement over at ICE (though if ICE is going after “Copy Cats,” how long until Samsung gets nailed?). I’d want to look carefully though. We don’t have to just renew it. We can examine it and change it in any ways that make sense given the Obama administration’s | Read More »

Stephanie Cutter: A Liar Or A Fool
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 12th at 03:06 PM |
Stephanie Cutter of the Barack Obama campaign claims that MItt Romney is either a liar or a felon. There’s just one problem. Stephanie Cutter appears to be the liar or a fool. This all stems from when Mitt Romney left Bain Capital. Guy Benson lays it out over at Townhall. In short, it has been well documented that while Mitt Romney had some interest in | Read More »
Tech at Night: Kim Dotcom’s Massive Hubris, Google has it coming on Safari hack, a reasonable child pornography bill
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 12th at 02:30 AM |
US attempts to extradite Kim Dotcom have been delayed until 2013. It is unconfirmed whether the delay is related to the need to send a reinforced tanker to New Zealand in order to have a vehicle strong enough carry his weight back to the United States. In the meantime, the hubris (and food) filled man is trying to dictate terms to the US. That won’t | Read More »

Obama’s Middle Class Tax Hikes
By: Daniel Horowitz (Diary) | July 10th at 12:00 PM |
While Obama is prosecuting a flaccid war overseas and apologizing for our troops when they defend against Taliban attacks, he is fighting a no-holds-barred class war at home. Once again, Obama has announced that he will orchestrate the largest tax hike in American history on those earning more than $200,000. After all, taxing the rich is a great way to raise revenue; it worked so | Read More »
Romney extends lead among Independents to 14 percent
By: Dan Spencer (Diary) | July 10th at 11:00 AM |
In the new ABC News/Washington Post poll, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney extends his lead among Independents to 14 points, 53-39 percent. Two months ago, a POLITICO/George Washington University Battleground poll found Romney had a ten-point lead among the critical Independent voters. The mainstream media is touting the poll as showing the race is “dead even” — a 47-47 percent Obama-Romney contest among registered voters. | Read More »
Tech at Night: FCC to get grilled, Cybersecurity debate continues
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 10th at 12:30 AM |
Darrell Issa’s House Energy and Commerce is going to have a special hearing with all five members of the FCC, including newly confirmed members Jessica Rosenworcel and Ajit Pai. The FCC is expected to be questioned about issues ranging from wired phone competition to spectrum. I hope Mitt Romney’s people are listening, because the hearing should also highlight regulatory reforms needed across the executive branch | Read More »

For the Thirtieth Time, the Obama Administration Admonishes Voters Not to Read Too Much into One Month’s Jobs Numbers
By: Jeff Emanuel (Diary) | July 6th at 08:19 PM |
In case you missed it, the June jobs report is out, and the numbers are not good (though the Obama administration had a ready-made – and well-worn – excuse ready to go at a moment’s notice; more on that below). As Daniel Horowitz wrote here this morning: The headline number of the establishment survey is that only 80,000 net jobs were created last month, about | Read More »
Transportation Secretary Praises Murderous Communists as “More Successful”
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 5th at 05:37 PM |
Obama Administration Transportation Secretary Ray Lahood has come out in favor of the Chicoms over Americans claiming that in China “only three people make the decision. In our country, 3,000 people do.” Hannah Sternberg of Regnery gives a great example of that Chinese 3 man success. Likewise, the famed high spec rail system in China has come under investigation for corruption, is not making money, | Read More »
Romney accepts ObamaTax decision: Calls Obama out for broken tax pledge
By: Dan Spencer (Diary) | July 5th at 04:30 PM |
Mitt Romney tells CBS News chief political correspondent Jan Crawford, that he accepts the Supreme Court’s decision that President Obama’s individual mandate is “a tax.” In the Crawford interview Romney said there is no way around the Court’s decision: “I said that I agreed with the dissent, and the dissent made it very clear that they felt it was unconstitutional. But the dissent lost – | Read More »
Obama takes another excursion in taxpayer-funded million dollar buses
By: Dan Spencer (Diary) | July 5th at 12:07 PM |
President Obama is off on another campaign tour utilizing his two $1.1 million buses he had us buy for him so his campaign, unlike the Romney campaign, wouldn’t have to pay the bus fare. Along with a scheduled stop for ice cream on Thursday and attending a full fledged ice cream social on Friday, Obama intends to hype his taxpayer-funded so-called investment in manufacturing. Unfortunately, | Read More »
Tech at Night: Hitting the news through glitchy thunderstorm power
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | June 30th at 04:00 AM |
I hope nobody’s surprised that the Obama administration is stonewalling Darrell Issa from Trans-Pacific Partnership oversight. Because the President would love to get a power grab out of this, I’m thinking. In other House news, the Republican Study Committee is going Tech. Which is good; the less we have to rely on Democrats for good policy outcomes, the better. So I wish luck to Marsha | Read More »

Air Force Waaaaaaaaaaahhhhh
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | June 27th at 04:46 AM |
Air Force One turned to Air Force Waaaaahhhh yesterday in Atlanta. Barack Obama tied up lunch time traffic in the Peach State once again while he milked it for money. During a public speech, President Obama formally abdicated his role as Commander in Chief to become Chief Victim. Those dirty Republicans are outspending him, he cried to a sympathetic audience. In fact, this may be | Read More »
Obama Terminates 287(g) Immigration Enforcement Program. Anyone Home?
By: Daniel Horowitz (Diary) | June 26th at 11:49 AM |
December 2010 was not ancient history; it was a mere 18 months ago. On December 8, 2010, using the proper legal channels to change our immigration laws, the Democrat-controlled House passed the DREAM Act. Just 4.5% of Republicans supported it, even though it represented a “long-term solution” and was introduced in Congress. A week later, the bill failed to win 60 votes in the Senate, | Read More »
