Just before midnight Saturday, the House rammed through the 2,000 page monstrosity laughingly known as the health care bill. I’d say they did it under cover of night, reneging on a promise of a 72-hour waiting period. Again, who read this thing? How much arm twisting was involved to prevail in this [...]

Okay, I admit it - I have tried to be in total denial about the following interview of Secretary of State Clinton and Ann Curry. My aunt sent me the pertinent quote earlier this week, and I just didn’t want to believe it. I still don’t want to believe it, to be honest. [...]

Dr. Sima Samar. Now, some of you may know who she is already. For those who do not, or for those who are want to learn more, this is for you. (H/t to my aunt for sending me a mini biography on her, and to American Girl in Italy for mentioning her [...]

You may have heard that this weekend, the White House strongly suggested that David Paterson, the current governor of New York, really shouldn’t consider a run in 2010. You know, the way only Chicago politicians can: leak out a strong encouragement, deny that they did any such thing, and make it seem like they [...]

Yes, yes he has. Here’s the video of TYT pondering this question in light of the recent “revelations” of Obama’s duplicity:

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 [...]

Apparently Obama really didn’t know all the vile hate Reverend Wright was preaching at Trinity United. He just lied about being a faithful churchgoer to garner votes. It was all just a big fabrication to make Obama out to be the good christian, who attended church every Sunday, at 11am.

(bumped up from earlier yesterday)
Oh, boy. Well, Obama recently showed his true colors on “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” (see this, this, and this) and he has REALLY shown them on “DOMA” (Defense of Marriage Act). I’m sorry to keep harping on this, but hey - it IS Pride month, after all, and what [...]

Even when I don’t agree with Charles Krauthammer, I so enjoy reading him. But his latest WaPo commentary on the President, entitled Obama Hovers From on High is spot on. Few columnists or commentators (well, except us, of course, ahem) came to the conclusion as early or called Mr. Obama out on 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 [...]

Alert NQ reader, CG, provided the link to this article, and asked me what I thought about it. Here’s the article:
Obama on Spot Over a Benefit to Gay Couples
Just seven weeks into office, President Obama is being forced to confront one of the most sensitive social and political issues of the day: whether the [...]

And other news on the ever-changing Barack Obama.
Perhaps you have now heard that a 1996 questionnaire for Barack Obama has mysteriously reappeared AFTER he was elected (which of course he could not have done without the DNC’s new take on voting, i.e., it doesn’t really matter for whom you cast your vote - they will [...]

“Barack Obama’s rise to the presidency of the United States is something local African Americans who lived through segregation and the civil rights movement never imagined would happen in their lifetime. Madison remembers the time when she wasn’t allowed to eat lunch with white shoppers at the ….lunch counter. She remembers the days when she [...]

“Not by the color of his skin, but by the content of (his) character…” To paraphrase the famous words of The Rev.Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in his, “I Have A Dream” speech. Alas, his words came true on November 4th, 2008: a man was judged by the color of his skin, [...]

My partner and I CHOOSE to spread our wealth around to a number of non-profit organizations (our choice, not the govenrment’s), unlike the Obamas and Bidens, who choose to give very little of theirs, especially compared to the McCains and Palins. But I digress. The point is that one of the (many)organizations we [...]

Or: Obama is throwing out more smokescreens to obscure his connections with Ayers and ACORN.
Yes, it is true, in the conversation Charlie Gibson of ABC (”American Barack Broadcasting,” as my aunt says) with Barack Obama the other day, Obama threw down a challenge to John McCain. In this interview, which was VERY different from [...]

I seem to be on a roll here with this issue, so why fight it? Alert NQ reader, WorkingClassArtist, informed me that Senator John McCain had done an interview with the Washington Blade, a GLBT magazine. Now, some of you may recall that it was like pulling teeth to get Obama to ever [...]

Not long ago, I was able to share The Good News with you on how the Obamessiah is reaching out to the Faithful! Remember this?
How about this?
Oh, and we cannot forget this one - I know it was a hit with the Catholics in the crowd (right Divine?):
O, ye people of faith - wait [...]

Do you think the media is getting paid to push Obama on us? I think Tony Blankley wondered the same thing in his article, “Media Campaigns Hard for Obama.” He states:
While they have been liberal and blinkered in their worldview for decades, in 2007-08, for the first time, the major media consciously are [...]

Good news, All Ye Faithful! The Obama Camp has designed religious paraphernalia on which you can spend your hard-earned dollars! Now you can show your adoration for your faith and for Obama all at the same time! Oh, wait - was that redundant?? At God-O-Meter, the new items available were revealed. Oh, yes.
