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 [...]

Before Obama majorly embarrassed Secretary Clinton. Oh, many of us knew this was coming - and it has happened on a smaller scale here and there (except during the Primaries in which Mr. Ditto copied almost ALL of her policy positions). Now, it is on the big stage, about a big issue: Iran. [...]

Oh, the irony is just too rich. Some of you may have heard that President Obama decided the other day, after getting hammered by the LGBT community over DADT and DOMA, to grant LGB federal employees partner benefits by Executive Decision. Kind of. First, it begs the question, if he could have [...]

While I have long thought VP Dick Cheney was the devil incarnate, no one ever said he wasn’t a smart guy. Cheney was also arguably our most unpopular Vice President evah! He looked to be hiding out in a bunker most of the eight years President Bush was in office, and was probably [...]

I don’t know how anyone can watch the above video and not be both sickened and infuriated. It’s bad enough that, every day for 18 years, this man had to live a lie and keep a secret — that dishonesty and subterfuge are [...]

You’re a bunch of friggin’ idiots. As if Obama’s broken promises on FISA, Guantanamo, Iraq, military tribunals and _____ (just add to the list) weren’t enough to convince you — as well as your appointment of Ken Salazar, a proponent of Bush-era environmental standards and an opponent of wildlife protection, as Secretary of the [...]

The issue of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” is in the news again after the dismissal of a gay Army Arabic linguist recently (H/T to American Girl in Italy), as Steve Clemons mentioned in his post, “Do Obama’s Private Promises on Don’t Ask Don’t Tell Matter?“). Below is an interesting history of how the act [...]

Talk about your marketing ploy, which I, along with others, have been doing for a while now (most recently, “The Campaign’s Over, Obama: It’s Time To Lead“). But the incomparable Chris Hedges has done a remarkable job at highlighting just exactly how true that is (and it is true - his campaign won the [...]

David Axelrod manufactures commodities, not politicians: they don suits; they read teleprompters; they promise something new and unprecedented; but these newfangled objects cannot govern. No, I am not referring to Barack Obama, although this news does not bode well for Axelrod’s latest product; I am discussing Deval Patrick, who according to a 7News [...]

Who is Joshua DuBois, you ask (pictured here with Obama)? Well, he is the 26 yr old Obama tagged to be the Director of Obama’s new Faith Based Office. Yes, this 26 yr old Pentecostal pastor, without any formal seminary training, who, from his “resume” has done little more than go to school, [...]

Here’s part of CNN’s AC360 coverage of — and commentary on — Obama’s interview with al-Arabiya last night (we have the full two-part interview below). Huffington Post has the full text. I find the panel’s comments about the probable reaction by Al Qaeda to be interesting, if just a tad over-the-moon adulatory, heh:

As in Anne Hathaway, an actress I actually like, and one whose movies I have seen (yes, both Princess Diaries - what’s your point??!). She has taken such a strong stand, I am sure you will agree, on an important issue. Oh, yes - I am talking, of course, about her decision to [...]

I just returned from working in Miami Dade as the coordinator for Citizens for McCain. As a former Hillary Clinton supporter who volunteered for her all over the country, to many, I know it can seem like a stretch to have crossed over to the other side.
But as I reviewed the history of the [...]

Let me say right up front, I was ADAMANTLY opposed to invading Iraq. And I mean, ADAMANT. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, and we NEVER should have invaded a sovereign nation unprovoked. General Powell ginned up support from the UN based on a pack of lies. Bush took the [...]

Future Comrades, here’s yet another case of Obama supporters Enabled in The Overthrow Leading By Example. Let me know if you still think Barack “Fisa” Obama is about America as we know it. Kind of makes you feel all warm and fuzzy, free and safe doesn’t it?

As I watched the assault on Joe the Plumber the last couple of days, launched by Obama, Biden, the media, and Obama supporters made me think about Obama and his vote on the FISA bill.
Does everyone remember the outrage by Obama supporters, when Obama pulled a massive flip flop and voted for the FISA bill?
Well, [...]
