On Wednesday, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac executives had to appear before Congress to discuss the recent issue of their wanting to give themselves some big, huge bonuses. Needless to say, the Congresspeople were none too thrilled with these folks, as this LA Times article highlights: The chief executives of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac [...]

A whole bunch of numbers are coming out today, but one in particular stands out: as you read this, the US Debt will have reached $15 TRILLION for the first time in history. While Obama is hanging out in Hawaii on the links with his prostitute-seeking-and-busted-by-an-undercover-cop friend, complaining about Americans being lazy (the hypocrisy on [...]

That’s the latest from our illustrious (cough, cough) president in a nutshell. The problem with his jobs bill isn’t what is IN the jobs bill, but that the GOP is just too darn stupid to get it through their thick heads what an awesome, fantastic, super duper plan it is, or at least all at [...]

One would have to be living under a rock to not be aware of the struggles going on in Washington, SC, over the debt ceiling and the budget. Jay Leno used the following video to sum up the bickering on Capitol Hill: Uh, yeah. That sounds about right.

That would be the cost of each new job saved by the $666 billion dollar stimulus. A bargain it most definitely was not. But can we just pause for a moment as we look at this figure – 666? I mean, really – can this be a coincidence that the number for the Anti-Christ is [...]

With the New Year only days away, you can smell the change is in the air. Or, is that just more PR? All natural, but the process Let the change begin with snack foods. Well maybe not. Apparently we consumers are ‘howling’ for natural. Or at least the absence of artificial – as in additives, [...]

On Friday’s Political Punch, it was reported that Vice President Biden Predicts Massive Job Growth in Coming Months: Usually the Obama administration downplays expectations for job growth, but apparently Vice President Joe Biden didn’t get the memo – or he did, but just blew it off. Well, it wouldn’t be the first time our loquacious [...]

Who’s afraid of a little Tea Party? Everyone, fortunately. So says Kevin O’Brien of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, who correctly points out that while Tea Partiers may lean conservative, they are filled with more anti-incumbent fever (for both sides) than anyone would care to admit: Democratic officeholders should be afraid. Republican officeholders, too. For many [...]

AP reported today that President Obama once again told people they shouldn’t waste their hard earned dough in Vegas. Writer Oskar Garcia details the shock of several lawmakers as Obama carelessly singled out Vegas yet again. (Be sure to check out the video below the fold.) Their economy is based on tourism and his comments [...]

Recently, Vice President Biden reported that the Stimulus Program had created a huge number of jobs. If you have 41 minutes to spend to watch him – what the hell is the matter with you?? Oh, no wait – sorry. Ahem. I meant to say, if you have the time, you can watch Biden announce [...]

(Bumped up from Tuesday.) This is rich. We know about Obama’s many, many czars. Mark Steyn believes Obama has another one, someone of whom you have heard, but who isn’t on the usual list, Obama Makes Bush His Blame Czar. You know, he has a point – we’ve been hearing for months now “He did [...]

(Bumped up from Saturday.) General McChrystal’s proposal for Afghanistan has been on Obama’s desk for almost two months now. And what is Obama doing about it? Well, he appears to be deciding on how to decide what his decision will be, but he’s not there yet. Nope, instead, he is throwing up some smokescreen about [...]

I came across an article the other day, and was really taken by it, especially as it came out in the midst of the undercover videos by James O’Keefe, four in total thus far, with more to come, which have gone far in exposing the underside of ACORN. O’Keefe’s staggering videos can be found here [...]

Yes, more numbers to report to you you today. “Tens of Thousands” is the phrase the Washington Post and The New York Times used to describe the numbers of people marching on Washington yesterday, voicing their concerns over the rampant spending by Congress. “Tens of thousands” has apparently become a euphemism for 1.2 – 2 [...]
