Some Dems See “Climate Change” As A Winning Issue

Well, it’s certainly not as dangerous as campaigning on support of Ocare (NY Times) He is a Democrat in a marquee Senate race, pressed by a strong Republican in a state with a challenging political environment. So when a new proposal to limit power plant emissions was seen as posing a threat to allies of […]

White House: Some Soldiers Can Be Left Behind

In relation to Bowe Bergdahl, Obama has said many times since the swap “We don’t leave men and women in uniform behind”, or something to that tune. He even doubled down by adding “We don’t condition that.” Of course, the issue isn’t Bergdahl, but a failure to notify Congress and, #1, trading 5 high ranking Taliban […]

Man With Largest Carbon Footprint In World Would Like To “Go Off On Deniers”

Thomas Friedman has a little op-ed piece up regarding Obama’s “climate change” power plant rules, which includes an interview with Obama. Remember, this is the same guy who will take a fossil fueled helicopter over to Andrews Air Force Base, jump on Air Force 1 to fly all the way across the country (with a […]

Obama Has Typical Solution For Student Loans

Another week, another Obama avoidance of the VA scandal. He has yet to truly address it during a Weekly Address, despite the terrible care so many veterans are receiving. This week, he decides he wants to patronize students who took out loans that left them with crushing debt. At least he wasn’t chewing gum (video […]

Poll: Most Find Clinton, Bush More Competent Than Obama

And Now Obama Deflects Bergdahl Controversy

@ShannonBream: PresObama on Bergdahl swap: “I’m never surprised by controversies that are whipped up in Washington. That’s par for the course.” Shared via TweetCaster I unfortunately haven’t figured out a way to embed tweets using Droid. Head to Twitchy to see a full raftload of this utter disgrace of a president. How can he be […]

Obama’s “Carbon” Plan: Killing Jobs, Costing Americans Money

I’m still not that concerned with Obama’s climate change plan: there is a low probability that it will actually be implemented. There will be too many lawsuits filed and fought. Republican led states, and perhaps energy states with Democrat leadership, will blow the regulations off. A GOP president starting in 2017 will roll the regs […]

Team Obama “Surprised” By Bergdahl Reaction

One does have to wonder what was going through the heads of Obama and the people working for him regarding the prisoner swap that released 5 hardcore Islamists, high ranking members of the Taliban, in exchange for a soldier who deserted, and possibly gave aid and comfort to the enemy. Defense and CIA were overruled, […]

White House Accuses Soldiers Complaining About Bergdahl Of “Swift Boating”

Let’s be clear on one thing: this is Chuck Todd, appearing on The Today Show, reporting this, so take it with a grain of salt. But, having seen the way Team Obama has acted over the past 5+ years, would anyone be surprised if this was dead on? via The Weekly Standard’s Mark Hemingway Every […]

Obama’s Climate Policy Thought: “Are we ready for battle?”

As I noted yesterday, I’m not going to get to worked up when it comes to Obama’s climate change plan. There are many things we could discuss, such as The EPA admitting that it will raise the cost of energy by 6.5% by 2020, regardless of any spin by Obama and EPA head Gina McCarthy […]
