Good News! Our Economy Is SO Much Better Now, Especially For Democrats! »

Or at least that was the impression this headline from The Hill wanted us to believe, “Signs Of Turning Tide On Economy Lift Democrats, Obama’s Hopes.” Oh, Happy Day! Woohoo! The tide has turned, the economy is recovering, people are going back to work, Obama has parted the waters and slowed their rising, oh Hallelujah… [...]

Senate Subpoena and Media Coverage Followup »

Recently, I reported that Senators Lieberman and Collins subpoenaed the White House to have access to all of the information available on the Fort Hood Shooting, and Major Hasan. Well, the White House, Pentagon, and Justice Department have all said, “No.” Ah, such transparency: “We have repeatedly sought your departments’ cooperation,” they wrote. “Our efforts [...]

Obama’s Fairness Doctrine, Iran/Russia gas cartel and Palin, some “character” concerns, race-baiting for Dummies, and Secret Service finds NO ONE yelled “kill him” »

While pundits talk endlessly and badly about the debate (that CNN panel is ridiculous – isn’t anyone embarrassed to be there? They should be), I thought I’d look around and see what else is out there. 1)The NYPost talks about Joe the Plumber today. It calls Obama’s “economic plan” a wealth redistribution scheme. Obama’s plan [...]

Obama Forgets the Forgotten Middle Class »

During the opening night of the Olympics, John McCain broadcast the following ad, titled “Painful”: I was struck by the high quality of the ad. It tweaks Obama’s celebrity status, and then unleashes a full-throttle class attack on Obama. “Life in the spotlight must be grand,” intones a woman’s voice, dropping her voice off for [...]

Barack Obama Forgot Latin America »

A new Web video. OF NOTE: NoQuarterUSA.net does not endorse John McCain. However, we think this video points out a critical omission by Obama in his much-vaunted speech in Berlin:

It would be interesting to find out just what companies are getting all the business from the DNC.

“White Guilt” Politics of Obama Crowd Undermined »

If you believe the rhetoric of the “social justice” crowd influencing the Obama camp’s approach to education policy – the authoritarian leftists Bill Ayers and his sidekick Mike Klonsky as well ed school professors like Linda Darling-Hammond and Gloria Ladson-Billings – only reparations for 400 years of oppression of non-whites will allow us to close the [...]

Hostility, Angriness and Arrogance Are Anything But Unifying »

Obama partisans should take a lesson or two in civility if they desire the support of Hillary Clinton’s 18,000,000 voters. Last night an unruly crowd of Obama supporters indecorously heckled Governor Jennifer Granholm, who mentioned Hillary during her introduction of Barack Obama before the audience of the “Unity Rally” that took place in Detroit, Michigan. [...]

A final rant from an eternal Clinton supporter »

I received this in the comments section at my blog and thought it deserved to be a diary unto itself. The author’s name is Regencyg. I am sure you will agree that this is an excellent observation. Pagan I like to think that I have led my life with distinction. I was raised by a [...]

Obama Tiene Un Problema Muy Grande »

The Congress-watcher news magazine The Hill writes this week that: Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) must commit to helping illegal immigrants achieve citizenship or else risk losing the vital Latino vote in the general election, Hispanic Democratic lawmakers are warning. If he does not promise so-called comprehensive immigration reform, the lawmakers say, the only other way [...]
