Malfeasance Redux

Because some things bear repeating, I’m reposting this in light of the current activities regarding the health care legislation, as well as rumblings that B.O. is going to try and sign us up for Kyoto 2.0, which however, I might add, still needs to get ratified by Congress if we are a “signatory.”  Before I [...]

The Conceit of Socialism, The Arrogance of Obama

As unemployment crests 10% and continue to climb, as layoffs continue by companies of all sizes who are tightening belts and trimming budgets, as banks continue to be tight-fisted about credit and loans, you have to kind of wonder who’s at the wheel here? Despite billions of “stimulus” dollars, despite lofty rhetoric and glowing promises [...]

My Thoughts on Ft. Hood and Two-Gun Hasan

It is disheartening to read all the various apologia and hand-wringing conjecture going on about what REALLY caused (Maj) Hasan to go all Al Qaeda at Ft. Hood. Some have even taken to invoking the Klebold Defense, something to the effect that he was bullied because he was a Muslim, he was a social outcast, [...]

Don’t Be Mean To The Black Man! For shame!

The recent controversy surrounding Sen. Wilson’s “outburst” when he accused the President of lying is another clarion example of how we on the outside are allowing the Prog spin machine to control the political narrative in this country.
Wilson’s “emotional outburst” has now being branded as “heckling” in the media.  Now, I ain’t no rocket scientist [...]

No, really, this time we MEAN it!

Keep in mind that five years ago, Al Gore was already preaching that the North Pole could be gone in five years.  Now, with this year’s perfectly healthy and growing ice cap at the North Pole, his schtick is, “No, I mean, the NEXT five years.”
I believe we call that “shifting the goal-posts,” a tradtion [...]

Definition of Progressivism

Imposing economic policies that force millions of people to lose their jobs and begin relying, perhaps for the first time in their lives, on welfare subsidies, then turn around and brag about how many people your social programs are helping!
See how effective our program is?  We are helping millions now, where before we were only helping [...]

Agenda 21: The Birth Parent of Cap and Trade

 Well, since the ”Cap-n-Trade” Bill, code named H.R. 2454: American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009, aka the Waxman-Markey contribution to national decline has passed into law, thanks quite literally to the eight Republicans who voted for it, Republicans who it will be shown, I’m sure, to have some sort of financial interest to gain, I [...]

The joys of “free” Health Care

Under the heading of, “You Get What You Pay For…”, I share with you this link to a friendly neighborhood blogger from Canadistan, Mayor of the delightful burg of Mitchieville,
No Room At The Inn (my title)
This is what *free* gets you. You wait in long lines for free, you wait 8 months for an MRI for free, you [...]

Global Warming and The Downing Street Memo

In the run up to the second Iraq war, there came to light a document which came to be know as the “Downing Street Memo.”  The crux of this document is that it reflected the author’s concerns that the culture in the White House at the time was such that there was only one right [...]

When the government fears the people…

You know, as I’ve watched and read and listened to all the various outrage, pontification, justification and sometimes even downplaying of the increasingly fervent protests in Iran, vs. the regime’s increasingly violent tactics in suppressing them, I bemusedly have begun to wonder.  Sort of a compare and contrast kind of thing.
I look at the protestors [...]
