A Little Perspective Is Called For, I Think.

I’ve seen several lists of Obama’s failures that include his “betrayal” of Poland over the whole missile defense thing.  Here’s the deal:  It wasn’t him, and it wasn’t a betrayal.
What happened was that Obama accepted the recommendation of his Secretary of Defense to adopt a different method of strategic missile defense based around Aegis guided [...]

That there is one giant basket full of HAWTNESS!

Now, I’m not normally prone to fashion blogging, as I usually try to keep my metrosexual roots dyed, if you know what I mean and I think you do, but this here fashion travesty just cryed out to me.  I give you, the fabulous, beautifully-armed Michelle Obama:

Now, I readily admit that it takes a bold [...]

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 [...]

Q: How do you know when Obama is lying?

A: His lips are moving.  (Remember, Obama started out as a lawyer.)
There’s been much ado lately about the posters with the Obamanation dressed out to look like the Joker from Batman.  I think they chose the wrong villian.  It should have been Two-Face.
Today via Patterico, I read about the Obama Adminstration stance which is threatening [...]

It Doesn’t Take A Felony

In response to “The Hidden Costs of ObamaCare,” commentor Kate has asked the most burning question of the day:  If we see so clearly the dangers of the path down which Barack Obama is taking us, what then can we do?  What should we do?
I say, ask instead what  MUST we do?
By way of an answer, [...]

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 [...]

“A Republic, if you can keep it.”

Well, I sorta “missed” the Fourth of July this year.  It just doesn’t have the same verve when you are living in a foreign country.  Folks here in Germany do New Years better than the Chinese by far, but the Fourth of July just doesn’t seem to be on their radar for some reason.  So, [...]

How much is a trillion dollars? – Updated

If you haven’t seen it already, the UK Sun does a great job of breaking down how much actual money is a “trillion” dollars:
72 years to print a trillion dollars
The US Bureau Of Engraving And Printing produces 38million notes a day, so printing one trillion new notes from scratch and working seven days a week [...]

Poetic Justices

Does anyone else find it slap-your-knee hilarious that Obama’s first Supreme Court nominee just got one of her appellate court decisions overturned by….the Supreme Court?
Ah don’t cayuh who you are, that’s funny raht thair.

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 [...]
