john edwards: the paris hilton of politics »

John Edwards, he’s cute in an odd sort of way, spends a fortune on his hair, likes to primp in front of the camera, and has an infantile fixation of the phrase *you’re hot*.
He got caught with his panties down, and now, god save us all, there is a sex tape.
“Former presidential candidate John [...]

Sexist Pig Kerry Is NOT Funny »

Some of you may have heard that Senator John Kerry tried to make a joke about Governor Palin recently in light of Gov. Sanford’s, um, “adventure”. Like his previous comedic attempts, it was NOT funny. Seriously - he should leave comedy to the professionals (and Letterman doesn’t count). Anyway, The Sleuth from [...]

msnbc upset because *fierce advocate* obama not such a fierce advocate after all »

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow is finding out that President Obama is not such an advocate of gay rights, after all. The funny thing is that Rachel couldn’t see through Obama all along. Now, she is complaining because the President msnbc helped get elected, pined over, and well, hell, got all tingly over, defended the Defense of [...]

Stop Making Excuses For This Guy!! (Correction) »

“This Guy” being President Obama, and the ones making excuses for him are people in the LGBT community. In this particular instance, I mean over “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Yes, the Supreme Court has rejected a challenge to “DADT” in the case of Infantryman, and JAG officer, James Pietrangelo II (H/T to Soldier4Hillary [...]

“Renegade: The Making of a President.” Wolffe’s Book on Obama Misses No Opportunity to Diss Hillary »

(bumped up from yesterday)
Huffington Post featured an exclusive excerpt from Wolffe’s book on Obama’s ascent to the Presidency. You can run over and see it for yourselves if you feel so inclined, I will not link to it. Much as I would wish otherwise, I must express bottomless contempt for the continuously disrespectful [...]

Payback’s A Bitch »

The other day, a friend asked me if it was really so bad for the government to run a corporation, and added that they do some of that over in Britain. My answer was, “Yes, yes it is.” For a whole host of reasons of which I can think (and feel free to [...]

Obama Held Hostage by Cheney on National Security, Says MoDo »

Lord knows I miss no opportunity to take Maureen Dowd to task for her near criminal Hillary bashing, but today her column is a scathing satire entitled “Cheney’s Third Term” which depicts the former Vice President and Don Rumsfeld sharing a fancy Washington dinner while gamely bragging they are controlling President Obama on national security. [...]

John Edwards’ Staff Infection! »

My jaw dropped when I read this column by George Stephanopoulos. You mean to tell me that the Edwards staffers who suspected the affair was real didn’t have the guts, not to mention decency, to insist that John Edwards withdraw from the Democratic primary?
… I’ve talked to a lot of former Edwards staffers about [...]

Politico Says Obama Snarfed Hillary’s Winning Platform. We Say, He Still Ain’t Hill. »

(Bumped up from yesterday evening.)
In his article Obama morphs into old rival Clinton, Politico’s Alex Conant posits that all Obama’s campaign promises which distinguished him from Hillary have now been thrown out the window:
A year ago today, with returns rolling in from the North Carolina and Indiana primaries, the late Tim Russert so famously declared, [...]

Bush Redux, Redux, Redux… »

As in Obama is continuing to channel Bush. I could just as easily entitle this, “Obama is going to make my head explode - AGAIN.” So this morning, I’m watching the news, and they’re all getting ready for Obama to make YET ANOTHER &*#$#&& press conference about how he wants to cut a [...]

Hillary Back In The Day »

My good buddy, SusanUnPC (No Quarter), told me about this lovely story. I figured since I ended up writing about Hillary Clinton yesterday, I might as well continue the theme and write about her today, too. Oh, who am I kidding - I could write about her EVERY day. She is the [...]

The First One Hundred Days »

Is that all? Sigh - it seems like this has been going on forever. Maybe it’s just the MSM’s continued fawning over Obama, like yelling to the rafters what a HIGH poll number he has. Okay, it is more than half, but they are going this nuts over 56%? Seriously??? [...]

A Principled Former Republican or Election Winning Democrat? »

The Democrats are celebrating, Republicans are lamenting and MSM are excitedly analyzing every nuanced angle of every political strategy imaginable over Arlen Specters decision to switch his nearly four decade affiliation as a Republican to that of a Democrat. An excerpt from his statement earlier today in the WSJ:
I am not making this decision [...]

Retreat from Moscow 2009 »

Arlen Specter goes over to the new Tsar. The senator has been warning on this maneuver at least since he challenged Dick Cheney and George Bush in 2007 on war-making powers (above).

The More Things Change… »

The more they stay the same. Sad to say, but true, no matter what the Obama PR machine says about the whole Hope-y, Change-y Unicorn Magical Mystery Tour, change seems to take a mighty long time. Oh, sure, things started out well while reading the Sunday paper. I was reading the latest [...]

Pope Nixes Kennedy as Ambassador to Vatican »

BO really has personnel problems, doesn’t he? Even so, this one will make your jaw drop. The Telegraph (UK) is reporting that the Vatican has rejected Obama’s pick for US ambassador to the Vatican.
The pick? Caroline Kennedy.
Vatican sources told Il Giornale that their support for abortion disqualified Ms Kennedy and other Roman [...]

GOP R.I.P. »

Originally published today at The Daily Beast, which wrote, “Conservative radio host John Batchelor says it’s obvious: His Republican Party is a corpse. And its response to the financial crisis reveals how and when it died.”
The Republican Party is dead like Lehman Brothers and Robert E. Lee, not to be revived by [...]

The Idiocy of Advocacy »

Or perhaps this essay should be entitled “Some Advocates Are Idiots.” The idiots are MoveOn.org and Americans United for Change, who according to Karl Rove, the idiot par excellence, are targeting moderate Democrats in a vain attempt to garner support for Obama’s budget proposal. I quote the Wall Street Journal:
Americans United is going [...]
