Or, should this be a witch hunt President Obama has launched a major crackdown on big city police departments to make sure officers are behaving themselves on the ground. In a major shift in policy since the Bush era, ‘civil rights investigators’ are being sent out by Obama’s Justice Department to large urban police departments […]

I don’t think anyone saw this coming at all. It should be a complete and utter shock to everyone out there, right? President Obama has subtly shifted Washington’s public explanation of its goals in Libya, declaring now that he wants to assure the Libyan people are “finally free of 40 years of tyranny†at the […]

Out in Washington, Lake Washington High School is considering (remember that word) making every student take a breathalyzer test prior to entering the prom. As Komo News points out “Close to 60 percent of all alcohol-related fatal car crashes happen during prom season.” Obviously, the ACLU has an issue with this attempt to keep kids […]

Apparently, federal workers are, in fact, above the law A threat from the federal government to shut down Texas airports or cancel flights may have killed legislation by Tea Party conservatives in the Texas Capitol to prohibit federal Transportation Security Agents from conducting “invasive searches.” “I don’t cave in to heavy handed threats by the […]

Why, yes, The Politico is bringing us the Palestinian perspective on you not understanding that he really wasn’t talking about going back to 1967 border lines, just using them for the discussion about land swaps based on the 1967 lines. Because there’s a huge difference, mostly having to do with how Obama is going to […]

Obama zombies tell us we should be more positive about the economy, ones such as Robert Samuelson at the Washington Post It may be time to move beyond pessimism. Ever since the financial crisis, Americans have wallowed in fear and anxiety. Understandably. Although a recovery — as defined by academic economists — started about two […]

I hate to do back to back posts on El Presidente, however, he started it with his soaring, grandiose opus of a thousand different ideals, which was meant to tell the Muslim World and Middle East how to act. How’s that working out? Defying a stern warning from President Obama, Syrian forces opened fire on […]

We know how it was received in Israel and by Israeli supporters: both are pretty ticked off. Liberals tended to cheer the appearance of Obama supporting the Palestinians, because Liberals tend to support the violent actions of anyone attempting to kill Israeli civilians. But, what of the Arabs? How does “wariness and apathy” grab you? […]

First there was the speech. Then there was the criticism for what seemed to be a case where Obama was calling for the Israeli pre-1967 lines to be reestablished. Then cooler heads like Ed Morrissey and Doug chimed in, throwing a bit of cold water on the kefuffle. Oh, and then the BBC chimed in […]

That’s right, Obama is going to give another speech this morning at 11:40am, giving him plenty of time to get 18 holes in As the democracy movement now known as the Arab Spring hurtled across the Mideast earlier this year, President Barack Obama often tiptoed alongside history. His public statements tended to be cautious, his […]
