Barack Obama will try to milk every ounce of credit for being drug against his will to sign off on killing Bin Laden, but his real accomplishment will be the loss of Afghanistan. Since the Obama Administration decided to go on its Qu’ran apology tour, U.S. military operations in Afghanistan have ceased. We are hunkered [...]

The right weeps and the left rejoices. Me? Really could care less. I mourn for Andrew’s young family and wife. It is shitty when anyone at the ripe young age of 43 cashes it in. Just another reminder that life is short and fleeting and we should seize the day each morning we climb out [...]

The media’s anti-Romney sentiment took a real kick to the nuts tonight. Two weeks ago Romney was being written off as a dead man walking. Even though Romney has almost twice as many delegates as the other three Republican candidates combined, the media was insisting that he was on the ropes and going down hard. [...]

Santorum is politically clueless. He had a shot at beating Romney in Michigan and being perceived as an alternative. But not now. He may very well win Michigan tonight, but it will be a tainted, tarnished victory. Why? Because he appealed to Democrats to vote for him and stop Romney. What a goddamn idiot! Had [...]

As a long time fan of Hillary, I am troubled and distressed by her conduct of U.S. foreign policy on behalf of Barack Obama. This is more than a dust up over “policy” differences. Let’s start with the abominable “apology” by Barack Obama, General Allen and others over the burning of desecrated Korans confiscated from [...]

* BUMPED UP * The Obama Administration–from CENTCOM to the White House–has botched the entire response to the report that Korans taken from prisoners suspected of terrorism were burned. I don’t care whether this was intentional or a mistake. The Administration should have kept its damn collective-mouth shut. There was no compelling reason to admit [...]

* BUMPED UP * I wish Rupert Murdoch would put parachutes on the backs of his children and drop them into the middle of a Syrian neighborhood under barrage. Maybe, just maybe the deaths of his offspring might cool his enthusiasm, and that of his cable news TV network, for a new war with Iran. [...]

Conservatives claim to believe that the power of government should be limited when it comes to personal privacy. At least that is what I believe. Conservatives bristle justifiably at the intrusion of TSA agents groping one’s crotch at an airport security checkpoint. So here comes Virginia with a new law requiring a woman who wants [...]

A movie hits the theaters this week, Act of Valor, touted as a “real” action movie that features honest to goodness, real life Navy SEALS. The officers who signed off on letting active duty SEALS appear in this turd ought to be subject to a courts-martial. Not only is this a waste of government resources [...]

Can’t wait for Wednesday night’s debate. Santorum will be standing in the middle next to Mitt Romney. In previous contests Saint Rick sat in the peanut gallery and took potshots. He has never been given much time to hang himself. That changes on Wednesday. Rick and his team are a living, breathing gaffe machine. Did [...]

Set aside for a moment your personal feelings about Barack Obama. (That means you too PPAA and Marvin Marks). Let’s take an objective look at what is going on in the economy. I will make this real simple–if there is a genuine, strong economic turnaround this year, which means 350,000 new jobs per month, a [...]

This is not a question of “IF,” but “WHEN.” In previous debates, Santorum was considered a sidelight. Always stuck at the end of the stage and not treated as a serious candidate. Remember when Newt and Herman were once in that position? When they get moved to the center the heat is turned up. Everyone [...]

FBI did it again. Undercover agents persuaded a mentally challenged Sunni muslim from Morocco, to carry out a suicide bombing of the U.S. Capitol. Fox News is already wetting itself over this and drawing possible ties to Iran. Megan Kelly is proving her vacuous mental capabilities right now on air. She warns in ominous tones, [...]

Hopefully you can remember the crazy days of Bush Derangement Syndrome. Outrage over the polices and actions of Bush was so deep and so widespread that Democrats and Independents wanted anything but Bush. The biggest concern was the debacle in Iraq. Taking this country to war without cause and lying in the process alienated significant [...]

Therefore, going forward, if you want to comment you will have to register a verifiable email with Disqus. If you don’t like it, tough. This will smoke out the Obama trolls who have [...]
