Lawyers Proving the ‘Slippery Slope’ is Real
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | June 7th at 09:23 AM |
If you’ve spent any time at all on Internet message boards or in college debate class you’ll have seen the rafters vibrate with righteous condemnation against the “slippery slope argument.” It is claimed that a worst case, ultimate extrapolation of a thing is a bad argument because it isn’t necessarily a truism. Supporters of the Second Amendment, for instance, are scolded by liberals when the | Read More »
Obama Ignoring Longtime Allies
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | June 5th at 07:19 AM |
Obama is well into his ongoing adventure I’ll call TWAT (The World Apology Tour). And while he is bowing to Saudi Princes, groveling at the feet of South American communists, and promising radical Islamists that the U.S. wants to be their bestest buddy, all the while telling the world how wrong we are on everything, he also seems to be steadily torking off our allies. | Read More »
Euros Upset at Lack of Obama ‘Change’ With Ambassador Picks
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | May 30th at 05:39 AM |
Wanna be an Ambassador in the era of “change”? OK, then what do you have to do? Do you need to speak a foreign tongue? How about have some training in diplomacy? Maybe exhibit familiarity with any particular foreign culture? Nope, not in Obama’s Washington. All you need to do is donate a hefty sum to the Obama campaign and voila, you are in like | Read More »
Obama Pays to Treat Alcoholism in Chinese Hookers
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | May 13th at 05:08 AM |
Chinese hookers have a drinking problem. Obama has the answer: U.S. Tax money. So it appears that the President of “change” seems to be The One that drunken Chinese prostitutes “have been waiting for.” Our informative friends at CNSNews.com discovered that the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse (NIAA) has been awarded $2.6 million U.S. tax dollars to help train Chinese prostitutes to “drink responsibly on | Read More »
Pianist Cancels All U.S. Concerts Over Foreign Policy
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | April 29th at 06:02 AM |
I respect Polish concert pianist Krystian Zimmerman’s moxie. Oh, he hasn’t a clue what he is talking about, but he has the courage of his convictions at least, which is more than I can say for all those wild-eyed, half-informed, hypocrites in the American entertainment industry. You see, a few days ago, pianist Zimmerman announced in the middle of a concert that he would no | Read More »
About Dick Cheney: How the Old Media Creates a False Attack
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | April 27th at 06:02 AM |
The newest false meme invented by the Old Media is this claim that ex-presidents and ex-vice presidents have some sort of “tradition of silence” where it concerns commenting on those that take residence in the White House after they leave. The reason the Old Media is pushing this false claim is because Dick Cheney has been commenting on Obama’s security mistakes and the Old Media | Read More »
Barack Obama: The Soft on Tyranny President
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | April 21st at 07:27 AM |
In May of 2008 when Barack Obama was running for president he made a stop in Miami, Florida, a place well known for being a hotbed of anti-Castro, anti-communist sentiment. Miami is a place where many thousands of self-exiled Cubans settled after they fled a life of religious and political oppression and torture at the hands of Cuban communist dictator Fidel Castro. While in Miami | Read More »
AP Analysis: Good for Obama for Knocking Down Arrogant U.S.A.
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | April 21st at 07:24 AM |
The Associated Press has for years been good for inventing the news out of its own vivid imagination. But now, not only is the AP inventing news it is inventing an entire national self-image, then batting it down all in an effort to prop up the feckless foreign policy of its messiah Barrack Obama. Obama’s “The U.S. Sucks” tour isn’t over yet and the AP | Read More »
A Prime Example of The Left Lying to Itself and Everyone Else
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | April 20th at 06:34 AM |
Barack Obama has just taken the next step towards a complete disregard for America’s foreign policy by back slapping self-professed enemy to the “great Satan,” tin pot dictator and oppressor, Hugo Chavez. As Obama grins and associates with such low-end characters, treating them as worthy members of the international community, he drags down both the United States and any country that strives to treat its | Read More »
USA Today Writes Pseudo History of ‘Transformational’ Obama as ‘Global President’
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | April 10th at 06:31 AM |
USA Today’s Chuck Raasch has decided that President Obama is a “transformational American leader abroad” and that his America Stinks tour of Europe is a “confirming stamp of that new reality.” This effluvia of over indulgent praise heaped on Obama is ubiquitous in the media, we all know, but what makes Raasch’s piece egregious is the assumption of historical “truth” that posits that Obama has | Read More »
Obama: A Study in Presidential Arrogance
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | March 17th at 08:06 AM |
The whole world was supposed to fall at his feet. He was supposed to spend the next four to eight years (or four to ten as he once said during the late campaign) just making airy pronouncements while everyone danced lemming-like to his tune of hope-n-change. It was supposed to be easy. Heck, The One himself even pronounced that he enjoyed being president. “And it | Read More »
Brits Officials Can’t Get Obama Folks on Phone, U.S. Media Not Picking Up Either
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | March 12th at 05:16 AM |
If the snub of British PM Gordon Brown at the hands of President Obama and his wife weren’t enough, now British Cabinet Secretary Sir Gus O’Donnell is saying that Downing Street is finding it “unbelievably difficult” to get hold of officials from Obama’s administration. British officials can’t seem to ever get past the administration’s answer machines as they call here to try and coordinate plans | Read More »
More ‘Gift Gaffes’
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | March 8th at 04:05 AM |
On top of the major faux pas in gifting promulgated by the Obamas during the visit of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown comes the story of the ridiculous mistake that Secretary of State Hillary “the linguist” Clinton made with her gift to Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov. The “gift” was supposed to be a funny one, but it was a misfire because it seems that | Read More »
Obama’s British ‘Gift Gaffe’ Not Reported By U.S. Media
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | March 8th at 04:04 AM |
I know a few other RSers have hit on this, but the Obamas, Barack and Michelle both, pretty much diplomatically botched the recent visit of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and his wife. Oddly enough, the U.S. Old Media seems uninterested in the story that is a hot topic in England, a story that’s left many Brits a bit miffed. As the visit of the | Read More »
Obama Hits a Wall! Will Media Highlight MAJOR Obama Gaffe in Berlin Speech?
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | July 25th at 12:32 AM |
Obama’s speech today in Berlin, hailed as a “major” address, has at least one major, glaring error that shows that nether Obama nor his handlers and speech writers were thoroughly familiar with the facts. Obama’s main theme was about the “walls” that separate all of us one from another. He claims that many of these “walls” have been taken down and hails that as progress. | Read More »
These are the Torturing, Maniacs Obama Thinks he can Befriend
By: Warner Todd Huston (Diary) | July 23rd at 08:01 AM |
In 1999 a handsome, earnest young man named Ahmad Batebi defied Ayatollah Khamenei in Iran. His photo caused an instant sensation and became a symbol of the flower of Iran standing ready to oppose the oppression of the Iranian religious regime. Batebi, 31, became an icon after he was photographed as a handsome young student waving the blood-stained shirt of a fallen demonstrator during mass | Read More »
