So we are back from our excursion to Grand Cayman for some snorkeling, good food, and a look at a possible vacation investment. There is a reason why I am mentioning this. I just have to share what one of the owners of the development said while we were chatting. She said she didn’t know [...]

Obama is doing what he likes to do best – campaign. But he is doing it under the auspices of the People’s Business. Uh huh. I suppose if one completely ignored the blatantly partisan nature of his campaign, uh, I mean POLICY speeches, like the recent one in New Hampshire, one could buy that. The [...]

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 [...]

Well, well, well. All kinds of people are coming out of the woodwork suggesting Hillary Clinton oughta give Obama a run for him money. From the recent Chicago Tribune Editorial by Steve Chapman in which he exhorts Obama to step down, and Clinton to step up, to Dick Cheney, who not only suggested she would [...]

But yet, they can. This has got to be my all-time fave from the current White House spokeseasel, Jay Carney. He came out with a real doozy in response to some questions from ABC News journalist, Jake Tapper regarding the debt issue with which we are dealing: [snip] TAPPER: OK. The House is passing something [...]

Update below the fold. You know, I really should stop being astonished at the news, the sheer upside-down-ness of the world in which we live. But, no – I suppose I still expect a modicum of sanity to prevail. Sadly, that expectation fell far short when I saw some of the following news stories. For [...]

Update below the fold. Oh, my – Sarah Palin really stepped in it this time, didn’t she? She completely bungled the history of Paul Revere while up North. Yes, this short little clip says it all: What an idiot, right? I mean ALL the Lefty blogs and news channels are claiming so, from Think Progress [...]

“The operation was at this time effectively unknown to President Barack Obama or Valerie Jarrett and it remained that way until AFTER it had already been initiated. President Obama was literally pulled from a golf outing and escorted back to the White House to be informed of the mission. Upon his arrival there was a [...]

So speaketh Bill O’Reilly, who gets major props from Jon Stewart for saying so. The Business Insider has this headline declaring the Good News, “HALLELUJAH! Jon Stewart Thanks Bill O’Reilly For Smacking Down Trump’s Birther Nonsense.” O’Reilly responded to the issue since Donald Trump brought it up again. But that is not the point of [...]

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, [...]

* Bumped Up * Ross Douthat of the New York Times penned A Man for All Factions. It is a similar, if more civil, companion piece to the incendiary offering from Michael Goodwin of the NY Post, The Loneliest Man in DC, intimating that President Obama is increasingly isolated from his Democratic base. As Douthat [...]

* 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 [...]

In the not-too-distant past, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright played an instrumental role in the spiritual life of Barack Obama. Yes, Obama sat in Wright’s church, TUCC, for over 20 years. They were close, with Obama going to Wright for spiritual guidance often. Obama even referred to Rev. Wright as an “uncle,” and claimed that his [...]

Okay, not to harp on this subject or anything, but the Gulf Oil Spill continues to be horribly mismanaged by Obama. I don’t care how much he and the White House try to deflect attention away from Obama’s own shortcomings, whether by blaming BP CEO Heyward, or harping on Heyward taking an afternoon sail with [...]

The Hopium Haze of Obama’s followers? Well, if Jon Stewart is an example, I’d have to say yes. Larry Johnson finally got me to start watching Stewart again after a long hiatus. The hiatus began when Stewart jumped on the Obama Sycophant Bandwagon. I was very disappointed that Stewart went that route, but he did. [...]
