Apparently, Joe Biden is an easy lay because all it takes is the mere mention of giving Solyndra a cool half billion of our tax dollars to get him all hot and bothered. Incredibly, this is all contained in an email (well, more or less – they didn’t have the “easy lay” part, my partner [...]

Now, I know that many of us – members of the “reality based community” – did not believe for one skinny second that Barack Obama was ever going to be transparent or bring real change to the White House. Frankly, it is ludicrous on its face to refer to someone as “transparent” who refused to [...]

Of the duplicity that is Obamacare. Some time ago, August 12, 2009, to be exact, Obama-phile Greg Palast wrote about Obama meeting with Big Pharma from the get-go. He was not amused that Obama would do this, though others of us are not surprised one bit that Obamacare was a giveaway to Big Pharma. But [...]

Sometimes I feel sorry for Joe Biden. Our Vice President has to get out there every day and deliver the talking points. He pretends what is bad is good and makes policies we knew wouldn’t work sound like the greatest thing since sliced bread. I guess it goes with the territory. No wonder he wanted [...]

One would certainly think so if this article is any indication, “Why Reporters Are Down On President Obama“. Color me a bit surprised to learn that reporters were down on Obama. I could be jaded after the overwhelmingly positive articles of him during the election, especially compared to favorable articles on Hillary Clinton, but I [...]

Well, this is a fine how-do-you-do for a press that was completely sycophantic for Obama, did his bidding, published whatever he, Plouffe, or Axelrod claimed about Obama without EVER bothering to look it up (except for a very, very few intrepid reporters, like John Kass and Lynn Sweet, both out of Chicago). The same press [...]

You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it was a [...]

(bumped up by nasuS) [Truthteller's piece is terrific. I've added the latest video from the guys at the Nose On Your Face at the end. I think it is a dandy companion for this piece.] Barack Obama on Thursday stated the following: “I have never spoken to the governor on this subject. I am confident [...]

Times Online reports calls for Emanuel’s resignation as Obama’s Chief of Staff. I quote with emphasis: THE bullish, foul-mouthed but effective Chicago arm-twister Rahm Emanuel has come under pressure to resign as Barack Obama’s chief of staff after it was revealed that he had been captured on court-approved wire-taps discussing the names of candidates for [...]

Below is video of Obama being questioned by a Jewish man at an event in Florida about Rashad Khalidi. Obama basically said Khalidi is just a guy in the ‘hood, (you know, just like he did with Ayers). “A professor in Chicago, whose kids went to school with my kids.” “He is not one of [...]

Oh. Dear. GODDESS. Are you freakin’ kidding me? I had heard talk of such a thing, but I cannot believe they are actually doing this. What am I going on about?

Carolyn Kay of MakeThemAccountable.com So you thought the problem of Barack and Michelle Obamas’ 2005 mansion purchase was dead and buried. Well, not any more. A reader of my website who is a tax accountant of many years, one who specializes in criminal matters, says he believes the Obamas have a tax problem. Simply [...]

One of the lead stories listed on my Google homepage today was about Obama’s current tour of Middle America, and as the title of the article by Leonard Doyle makes clear, these folks aren’t sure who Obama is: Obama courts Middle America in attempt to counter ‘antiChrist’ image If Obama thinks he has problems with [...]

by Medusa and Bud White Two-faced? Hypocritical? Or showing his true colors? Last week Barack Obama made 180 degree turns on three previous positions he had taken in order to seduce liberal Democrats. In an article entitled “For Obama, winning is everything“, Michael Tomasky writes of these changes, claiming that: It’s acceptable – and necessary [...]
