Is that all? Sigh – it seems like this has been going on forever. Maybe it’s just the MSM’s continued fawning over Obama, like yelling to the rafters what a HIGH poll number he has. Okay, it is more than half, but they are going this nuts over 56%? Seriously??? Wow, I guess it is [...]

We have been exposed to an education lately on International Law and the Rule of Law. Everyone has been following the torture memos and some of us have a quaint understanding of how the U.S. signing the treaty at the Geneva Convention forcibly influenced laws that we were required, by the treaty, to add to [...]

(bumped up from Wednesday morning) George Soros, maybe? The problem in appeasing these activist groups is that there are profoundly serious intelligence-gathering and counterterrorism implications, and extraordinarily time- and energy-consuming legal tasks and confusing agency expectations behind what Obama is suddenly proposing that could suck all the oxygen out of his presidency and the entire [...]

You all read American Girl In Italy‘s takedown of Janeane Garofalo in “‘this is racism straight up and is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks’.” Now, via The Right Scoop, we have a mash-up of Ms. Garofalo’s wildly inconsistent — and might I add anti-democratic? — thoughts on the importance of dissent: Ms. Garofalo’s [...]

On Tax Day, Texas Governor Rick Perry shrewdly made a play to take over the shoddily managed GOP noise at the Obama administration’s spend and tax policies. This is a middle-aged man’s vigorous performance on a baseball diamond, and the more so because everything about it looks scripted, rehearsed, manufactured, overexposed.

Though critics will probably try to write the tea parties off as partisan publicity stunts, they’re really a post-partisan expression of outrage. In this video, Instapundit‘s Glenn Reynolds, a professor and cogent blogger, gives the real history of Wednesday’s tea parties on C-Span. Of Note: Reynold’s op-ed, “Tax Day Becomes Protest Day: How the tea [...]

Excuse me, but I have a huge problem with this: Americans are attending over 500 non-partisan tea parties throughout the country today, and Obama has no idea? Talk about out of touch.

Please USE THIS THREAD to report on events in your area, and to provide us with images and videos. Fox has streaming video all day of the protests at FoxNation.com. If your video can be embedded, e-mail it to me at susanunpc at gmail dot com, and I’ll add it below the fold. Despite that [...]

In a brilliant rebuttal to coordinated attacks from the far left, this Wall Street Journal op-ed, “Tax Day Becomes Protest Day – How the tea parties could change American politics.” (related stories) nails the true genesis of today’s protests: Today American taxpayers in more than 300 locations in all 50 states will hold rallies — [...]

(Bumped up from this morning. And don’t miss the Boston Tea Party “Tax Day” plans just below this post. ALSO: Here’s another attack via HuffyPoop, “Teabagging: Redux Anti-Intellectualism.” Get that, you redneck hooligans?) Hey, all you Tax Day people. You’re not part of some ‘winger cabal, are you? You’re not into some dangerous, extremist rightwing [...]

In “President Obama’s Ambitious Agenda on Crash Course With Fiscal Realities,” Stu Varney, on Fox News’s America’s Newsroom, exposed a ruinous weakness in Obama’s reckless, contraindicated spending spree: Tax revenues are down 25% (!), and April 15th is NOT going to be a lucrative day for the U.S. government. With escalating unemployment, and more and [...]

ACORN, HuffPo [Huffington Post] Organizing Efforts to Infiltrate Tax Day Tea Parties to Shape Media Coverage: “FNC’s Neil Cavuto says efforts underway to make protests appear as ‘fringe-group efforts’ and in some cases as ‘racist undertakings.’” – YouTube channel I am SHOCKED that Obots would use the race card! I am stunned they’d thuggishly try [...]

Or perhaps this essay should be entitled “Some Advocates Are Idiots.” The idiots are MoveOn.org and Americans United for Change, who according to Karl Rove, the idiot par excellence, are targeting moderate Democrats in a vain attempt to garner support for Obama’s budget proposal. I quote the Wall Street Journal: Americans United is going after [...]

You know I have long though Obama was just another Dubya. And he has found yet another way to demonstrate that. Now, this one had to wait until he was actually in office, but happen it has! Remember how we all blew a gasket over Bush making sure people who asked him questions were his [...]
