KenoshaMarge penned a comment that I wish Mitt Romney could read himself: The frantic anti-Romney media will play this as a bad “win” because it was so close in Michigan. Romney had the best answer for that when he said, “We didn’t win by much, but we won by enough.” The fact that Romney wins [...]

Have you seen this FBI PSA on your TV recently? Below, NoQuarterUSA contributor Larry Doyle comments on the FBI’s effort to warn Americans about insider trading and the dangers of white-collar crimes. Michael Douglas? Have we gone totally soft? Does America need to call on Michael Douglas, as the FBI recently did, to promote that [...]

The media’s anti-Romney sentiment took a real kick to the nuts tonight. Two weeks ago Romney was being written off as a dead man walking. Even though Romney has almost twice as many delegates as the other three Republican candidates combined, the media was insisting that he was on the ropes and going down hard. [...]

Santorum is politically clueless. He had a shot at beating Romney in Michigan and being perceived as an alternative. But not now. He may very well win Michigan tonight, but it will be a tainted, tarnished victory. Why? Because he appealed to Democrats to vote for him and stop Romney. What a goddamn idiot! Had [...]

The Hill is a thoroughly prim and proper news source, which makes this headline and clip all the more stunning and sickening. I swear by all that is holy that the following is not satire: Santorum blames 2008 mortgage crisis on $4-per-gallon gas Stop. Read that again. Santorum blames 2008 mortgage crisis on $4-per-gallon gas [...]

As a long time fan of Hillary, I am troubled and distressed by her conduct of U.S. foreign policy on behalf of Barack Obama. This is more than a dust up over “policy” differences. Let’s start with the abominable “apology” by Barack Obama, General Allen and others over the burning of desecrated Korans confiscated from [...]

UPDATE: The most beautiful moments of last night’s show, at the end of the post. Ever since I can remember, I have loved watching the Academy Awards. True confession: I even enjoy the frivolous pre-Awards Red Carpet appearances by the nominees. The Academy Awards have always been “appointment TV.” Until now. Last night’s production was [...]

I’m not even going to bother to find links to Santorum’s quotes because I’ve heard them at least 10 times already today, and probably so have you. Nor will I give him “air time” on this blog by posting a video of his insane drivel. Santorum is one of the top reasons I am going [...]

POTUS Obama? His delusion in the Moslem Brothers means that he may vouchsafe a UN/NATO “protect” operation. … continued below … Briefed these hours on the Syria scenario. Rough business. The Obama administration (POTUS personally) is backing the Moslem Brothers at 1000%. Brothers out of Cairo and other capitals are running the Homs/Hama provocation operation. [...]

* BUMPED UP * The Obama Administration–from CENTCOM to the White House–has botched the entire response to the report that Korans taken from prisoners suspected of terrorism were burned. I don’t care whether this was intentional or a mistake. The Administration should have kept its damn collective-mouth shut. There was no compelling reason to admit [...]

From “Santorum benefits from mistaken religious identity,” an original op-ed written for the Associated Press by Rachel Zoll, AP Religion Editor: Peter Wehner, a Republican who served three presidential administrations, most recently under George W. Bush, said in an article about Santorum that social conservatism must be discussed in positive terms, as promoting human dignity, [...]

A few months ago, I wrote a series of articles (you’ll find the links below) about a blogger who calls himself “Ulsterman,” and a recurring feature of his blog, interviews with a mysterious long-time Democratic operative, known only as “White House Insider.” WHI pops up every few weeks on Ulsterman’s blog, sharing his latest insights [...]
