When Will Obama Take Responsibility For Being President?

At what point does Obama Man Up and be Thee President? I can’t remember Bush blaming Clinton for not taking out Osama 3 times, for the Wall between law enforcement and intelligence, etc and so on. Clinton wasn’t out there blaming Bush 41. Reagan wasn’t blaming Carter for the recession he inherited and the Iran […]

Ireland Will Accept Two Gitmo Vacationers

This is where I am supposed to put in some sort of Irish saying, but, that would be entirely too easy and cutesy Ireland’s agreement Wednesday to take two homeless Guantanamo prisoners demonstrates that patient diplomacy between the United States and Europe is starting to play its part in shutting down the notorious U.S. prison. […]

Science Based On Facts, Not Ideology?

Remember when Obama stated that he wanted science to be based on facts, not ideology? Of course, he was discussing the use of federal money for embryonic stem cell research, so, was a silly statement to start with. And, how about Obama also signed a memorandum that directs the White House Office of Science and […]

Gates Half-Irish, Related To Officer Crowley

Here we have the Credentialed Media digging for their OMG, we’re all one world! story Henry Louis Gates Jr., the black professor at the center of the racial story involving his arrest outside his Harvard University-owned house, has spoken proudly of his Irish roots.

Michael Jackson To Get Nobel Prize?

He will if some of his fans get their way. My one and only Michael Jackson post Michael Jackson fans have launched a campaign calling for the superstar to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Five Freedoms You’ll Lose Under Government Health Care

Taking the advice of Dr. Melissa Coulthier, I’m going to stop referring to the Democrat health care proposals as ObamaCare. Like she writes, “government run health care” doesn’t poll well, and “”Obamacare” sounds snipey and non-descriptive.” Another good way to term it would be “government taking away your freedom health care,” but, that tends not […]

AGW Today: Solar Panel Fines, Summer Idiots, And Bigfoot

As people put up solar panels, whether for the energy savings or because they are barking moonbat climate changers, they could run in to a wee bit of a problem  Solar energy customers are worried a new fee proposed by Xcel Energy would punish new customers for getting solar panels.  The monthly fee, which would […]

You Knew The “R” Word Had To Appear For The Birther Debate At Some Point

Primarily, because once the left runs out of rational arguments, usually about 5 minutes after the debate starts, they cry racism! And that time is now (via Just One Minute) Mr. Phil Griffin [president of MSNBC] said the claims were legitimate to cover “in that there’s a segment of our population that believes this and keeps […]

Fail Tag: Man Can’t Get Arrested For Traveling To Cuba

A U.S. citizen trying to challenge the ban on travel to Cuba on Friday bemoaned his inability to get arrested or cited — even after having his passport stamped in Havana and bringing back Cuban memorabilia. Mytchell Mora, a 39-year-old freelance entertainment news producer, said he told U.S. customs officials he broke the law after […]

The 47 Million Uninsured

These are the folks who Obama wants to give force to accept the government option, as done by Michael Ramirez (h/t Ed Morrissey) Great reason to fundamentally change the way health care is delivered in America, giving us the same, um, ah, oh, heck, put it bluntly, crappy socialistic health care that Canadians and the British […]
