Or is that “nemisi?” Regardless, let’s see how the Republicans and Democrats will handle the health destruction debate during the August recess. I’ll skip through the New York Times article to see what the GOP will do first, and then I’ll highlight the Democrat strategy. You tell me which one will have the most problems, […]

Just more evidence that Charles Johnson is neither a conservative nor interested in any truth, but is basically a smear merchant (witness more Nirther, Glenn Beck hatred, and BNP posts, BNP meant to smear Robert Spencer and Pam Geller, among others.) Here’s what Kid Icarus goes with The Video Anthony Watts Doesn’t Want You to […]

Remember how The Politico headlined their story based on a Daily Kos (snicker)/Research 2000 poll? 58 percent of GOP not sure/doubt Obama born in US And the story A whopping 58 percent of Republicans either think Barack Obama wasn’t born in the US (28 percent) or aren’t sure (30 percent).

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 […]

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.

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.

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. Strangely enough, he and the Cambridge, Mass., police officer who arrested […]

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. The late star’s fans have flocked to sign online petitions supporting the move. They say he should be honoured […]
