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 [...]

Some Suggestions If You Are Traveling Into The USA »

After seeing this article the other day, Bush’s Search Policy For Travelers Is Kept; Obama Officials Say Oversight Will Grow, I felt compelled to share some helpful suggestions when you are traveling into the USA: carry some change to make phone calls, bring some paper and a pen to be able to write a letters/documents, [...]

“Obama On Drugs: 98% Cheney?” »

The other day, I saw a post by Greg Palast, one he originally wrote for Huffington Post. When you read it, you will see why that is kind of funny. I wonder how they responded to it over there? I’m not about to go there and give them the traffic to find [...]

“Mr. Obfuscation”? »

I saw this excellent piece by Jay Ambrose in my local paper recently, “Seeing Through Obama’s Promise Of Transparency.” In the article, Mr. Ambrose lays out a number of ways in which Obama has reneged on being “transparent”:
Transparency, said President Barack Obama in a memo not long after he took the oath of office, [...]

“Painful” »

This ad is very effective. I worry that not every American has realized yet that, in 2005, Barack Obama chose to side with his lobbyist benefactors over the American people, and that he voted FOR the Bush-Cheney Energy bill. Hillary Clinton or John McCain voted against the bill.
Imho, that alone is reason enough to [...]

Allyson Schwartz (D-PA) on Obama’s Vote for the Bush-Cheney Energy Policy — Let’s Play Dodgeball »

Poor, poor Allyson Schwartz, a Democratic Congresswoman from Pennsylvania, who yesterday was embarrassed on national television by MSNBC’s David Schuster who asked in the wake of Obama’s attacks on the Bush-Cheney Energy Policy:
Didn’t Barack Obama vote for the 2005 Bush-Cheney energy bill?

At first she dodged the question and tried the valiant, let’s not talk about [...]

Obama just doesn’t like to be questioned … »

Here’s another classic find by one of our readers, “Obama Doesn’t Really Like a Debate” that ties in perfectly with PatRacimora’s cartoon and commentary this morning. Thanks, TM. [STAY TUNED for a great post by Larry Johnson on Obama's thuggery in his treatment of the press. I added a new Category today to [...]

Paris Hilton’s Response to McCain »

Well, she certainly has a sense of humour if scantily clad. Reclining in a pool-side sun-lounger, Ms. Hilton says: “Hey America, I’m Paris Hilton and I’m a celebrity, too. Only I’m not from the olden days and I’m not promising change like that other guy. I’m just hot.”
“But then that wrinkly, white-haired guy used [...]

Obama’s Fundraising Comes Under Scrutiny »

Last week, the Obama campaign reported that it had a $52 million haul in the month of June. In releasing this information, Obama campaign manager David Plouffe wrote in an e-mail to supporters that:
“You continue to prove what ordinary Americans committed to change can accomplish, despite the Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs funding so [...]

Backtracking with Barack — Corn Ethanol »

Unexpectedly or perhaps surprising to me anyway, energy policy is actually getting debated. That’s a good thing even though I don’t really expected it to lead to the tough choices we need to make in the time frame we need to make them. To be honest, we are past the tipping point. We’re doomed. The [...]

The Plight of the Obama Crowd »

I have zero compassion for them. Anyone who supported Obama after March 2008 is clearly either a delusional Obama cultist or a head in the sand idiot. This one is on you.
You had better more experienced choices, say Senator Joe Biden. You had better more principled candidates who live their convictions, say Representative Dennis [...]

Greta Van Susteren and Nancy Pelosi »

Greta Van Susteran conducted a three-part interview with Speaker Pelosi yesterday on her show, On The Record. (Here is the video for Part I. The other two parts are below the fold. Fox News also has a partial transcript.)

Ms. Van Susteren does an excellent job in this interview. She does not let Speaker [...]

Women’s Checklist for Change »

Via Clinton Democrats, today’s action item of the day:
Today Senator Barbara Mikulski joined Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), Patty Murray (D-Wash.), Mary Landrieu (D-La.), Blanche Lincoln (D-Ark.), Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.), Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) to announce their “Checklist for Change,” a list of ten issues Congress [...]

What’s Gas Cost In Your Neck of the Woods? »

It’s quickly approaching $4.00 in our part of Maryland (just north of DC).  $3.80 last I checked and the way things are going I wouldn’t be surprised to see it hit $4.00 by the time the last of our primaries are done on June 3rd.  People are hurting guys and it’s only going to get [...]

Obama’s Credibility Gap »

Obama continues to say one thing and do another. The Los Angeles Times reported on Wednesday that Obama has continued to take money from oil executives:
Sen. Barack Obama continued accepting donations from oil company executives and employees last month even as he aired ads in which he stated he took no oil company money, [...]
