Who’s Coming To Hang Out With Obama In Our White House? »

You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it [...]

“‘barack obama is a big fat liar’, illustrated” times two – UPDATE »

I read two great posts from NRO, Barack Obama Is a Big Fat Liar by Jim Geraghty, and ‘Barack Obama is a Big Fat Liar,’ Illustrated, by Guy Benson.
Geraghty writes:
Ever since Barack Obama declared his candidacy for president, it’s been easy — and great fun — to spotlight when his promises and statements come with [...]

The GOP: Past, Present, and Future »

The Republicans really screwed the pooch by allowing the Neo-Cons to take over their party. At this point in time, the mainstream media is promoting the meme that the Republican Party is dead, or dying. That’s a huge load of crap. As always happens in the history of politics, the pendulum swings to the left [...]

Open Thread * Fox News Special Programming Tonight (Let’s All Watch and “Live Blog”) »

Here is Fox News’s promo for this important programming. (By the way, Fox’s schedule says this program is at 10 p.m. ET, but I heard an anchor say it’s at 9 p.m. ET. Please check your TV at both times, because this isn’t the first time that Fox’s scheduling and actual programming have been [...]

Our Tattered Constitution, Rent By Cruelty and Unanimity »

[This story was published on February 23, 2007, and written by me (Susan). You can see that my politics changed during the 2008 election. But I'm not excising those sections, even if they may cause me some embarrassment. So what. I'll leave them be. But what I WANT you to do is [...]

What do Rashid Khalidi and Sirhan Sirhan have in common? Ayers and Obama »

Bill Ayers, domestic terrorist and Obama benefactor, dedicated his book to Sirhan Sirhan, the man who assassinated Robert F. Kennedy.
Prairie Fire, published in 1974, is described as Ayers’ communist manifesto.
Dedicating a book to Sirhan Sirhan isn’t radical chic or a youthful indulgence. Dedicating a book to Sirhan Sirhan is tantamount to denying the [...]

Intelligence & Humility: JFK on Tape »

A new audio tape was released this week of John F. Kennedy at a dinner party with Toni and Ben Bradlee (of Watergate fame), journalist James M. Cannon, and Kennedy’s wife Jacqueline. The conversation was recorded shortly after Kennedy announced that he was running for president. It’s about politics, of course, but it’s [...]

Three Candidates for Vice President »

(Cartoon by Pat Racimora)
Obama’s choice of Joe Biden, I suspect, will go down as one of worst political decisions in recent memory. John McCain’s pick of Sarah Palin will be remembered as one of the best.
Biden reinforces Obama’s worst traits: egoism, verbosity, elitism, and D.C.-insider status.
Palin, of course, reminds us of the best of McCain: [...]

Move On Needs To Do Just That… »

Move On already. They have SO jumped the shark. I used to belong to them until they endorsed Obama with a limited number of members voting, and with the voting rigged (surprise!) by Obama people. I bring them up because THREE different people sent me the following email:
Dear MoveOn member,
Yesterday was John McCain’s 72nd [...]

More People Think Obama’s Comments Racist than Do McCain’s “Britney Ad”, OK not ok w/Obama, WaPo finds bias, TIME finds bias, and a “bus trip” for the rulz »

1) While many people were wringing hands over the racist / nonracist McCain ad comparing Obama to vacuous celebrities, Rasmussen was doing a poll on what viewers thought.
Viewers largely thought it was NOT racist.

The Adulation of a Leader: a Cautionary Tale »

Barack Obama broke with tradition when he moved the Democratic National Committee from DC to Chicago. For many of us, this move emphasized the merger of the Obama campaign with the Democratic Party. And to many of us, that merger made clear that the Democratic Party no longer belongs to the people, it belongs to [...]

Appeasement at Tehran? »

The post below was written by Mary Jo Kopechne, PhD, with assistance from Bud White:

Upon being discharged from the Navy, John F. Kennedy worked briefly for the Hearst newspapers covering the newly formed United Nations. He wrote to a friend from San Francisco:
