Oh, things are really starting to get good. Um, I mean to say, that stories buried during 2008 are starting to make their way back up into the light of day. For instance, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Jr. is making some headlines now, not just for his “extra-constitutional” exhortation to Obama he made recently. That was [...]

I imagine by now you have heard all about Obama’s latest snitch program, “Attack Watch.” This is a program funded, well, by YOU, for people to go and rat out their friends, families, and neighbors, who dare to say something negative about Obama. Even if it is true. Remember the days when we all hooted [...]

There is so much going on in the news today. A few stories are mentioned below, but these are just the tip of the iceberg. Feel free to add some of your own. First there is the massive upset in New York City when a Republican, Bob Turner, took Anthony Weiner’s seat, the first time [...]

This has been an evolving issue, the ATF’s Operation Fast and Furious. In case you are unfamiliar with this program, here are the basics to this program: A U.S. law enforcement operation intended to crack down on major weapons traffickers on the Southwest border spiraled out of control as federal agents were told by superiors [...]

It is odd that progressives and conservatives alike are so preoccupied with Donald Trump’s potential run for the Presidency while simultaneously averring from the depths of their collective beings that he would have no merit as a candidate. Whether he would make a good or horrible president is not the point — not at this [...]

What did we miss in the news? Well, a bunch of things, actually. And perhaps this is why this whole ginned up “civility” discussion has been the primary focus of the talking heads. I hasten to add, the stories of the six victims in Tucson, Judge John Roll, Christina Taylor Green, Giffords Aide Gabe Zimmerman, [...]

In the current bout of progressive hand-wringing over President Obama’s latest “compromise” on the Bush tax cuts, everyone from Keith Olbermann to Frank Rich to Paul Krugman to Bill Maher to Eleanor Clift is directing their erstwhile wunderkind to return to his principles, get his mojo back, stop being wimpy and declare his refusal to [...]

Tom Junod of Esquire, who recently shocked himself by doing a rather complimentary piece on Secretary Clinton acknowledging her “unforgivable competence” and tireless work ethic, has also shocked himself by falling to earth regarding his assessment of President Obama. In his piece, Why President Obama Will Never Be Barack Obama Again, Junod joins the circular [...]

Rhode Island Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Frank Caprio heard in the most backhanded manner that he would not be receiving Obama’s endorsement because of the President’s “friendship” with Caprio’s opponent Lincoln Chafee. Chafee endorsed Obama in 2008 which is clearly more important to Obama than endorsing a fellow Democrat. Many wonder where Obama’s priorities are. But [...]

* Bumped Up * With the mid-term elections five weeks away, it’s desperation time. President Obama scolds voters for “apathy,” and for “not being serious in the first place,” VP Biden tells them to “stop whining,” and Senator John Kerry pronounces voters ill-informed on the issues, i.e. stupid. One has to wonder if that is [...]

Actually, here are a number of signs, in fact. Allegedly, these are real signs on Northbound I-5 in Washington State, below Seattle (and I wish I knew who to credit for these). With so much going on right now, there is nothing like a little humor to deal with it all, right (even if some [...]

/ Bumped up / Leave it to Maureen Dowd to miss the forest for the trees in her argument that “The Obama White House is too white.” In Dowd’s latest NYT column, You’ll Never Believe What This White House Is Missing, she discusses the Shirley Sherrod incident, and writes that “unlike Bill Clinton, who never [...]

/ Bumped up + stay tuned for more from the Reverend later today / And what does it mean for our foundational rights as a country? Recently, J. Christian Adams, former DOJ attorney, made some serious accusations about how the DOJ is doing business under Obama. Adams’ initial comments had to do with the New [...]

Can you hear it in the wind? Suddenly, this is the word on everyone’s lips — Hillary! Sally Quinn of WaPo, the grande dame of all that is socially correct, who called Hillary ‘a tortured person who doesn’t know what she wants,’ who accused her of all manner of evil over the years, now wants [...]

Having long ago been chased away from the Huffington Post, disgusted by their ceaseless Hillary bashing during the 2008 primaries, I have ventured back a little bit of late, if for no other reason than to see if their messiah-worship is as strong as ever. Imagine my surprise to discover the blog’s owner, Arianna Huffington, [...]
