Not that he really it calls it that. If you remember, his administration changed it to “overseas contingency” early on. And while the NY Times says that this “was the most important statement on counterterrorism policy since the 2001 attacks, a momentous turning point in post-9/11 America”, there are two issues, the first being that […]

Those who’ve read my blog posts know that I always refer to him as Obama or (NMP) Obama (not my president). When I refer to Obama as President Obama I do it to make a point. Case in point, per this McClatchy article at the Raleigh News and Observer With Obama in the dark, administration […]

As Ace points out, the LA Times originally buried their own scoop way down on the page. They’ve moved it up near the top as of my looking at it, and is now showing on the National page of their Droid app A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke […]

Is it any wonder Conservatives worry about tyrannical government? (Times Union) The sheriffs thought they were being summoned to the Capitol to discuss ideas for changes to New York’s gun control law, the SAFE Act. Instead, Gov. Andrew Cuomo told them to keep quiet. In January, the New York State Sheriffs’ Association wrote Cuomo with […]

It’s like clockwork: there’s some event, be it a holiday or breaking news, and Liberals use it to push one of their unhinged belief sets. If it’s bad weather they push “climate change”. Here’s disgusting and abhorent Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (Daily Caller) “So, you may have a question for me,†Whitehouse said. “Why do you […]

It’s not the first time they’ve tried this: they attempted to include it in the American Clean Energy and Security Act, but it did not pass (Noozhawk) Rep. Lois Capps, D-Santa Barbara, joined by Reps. Ed Markey of Massachusetts, Doris Matsui of California and Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, on Friday introduced legislation to improve the […]

An interesting juxtaposition from The Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza Can Obama bridge the divide between the two Americas? John Edwards was right. There are two Americas. In one America, the events of the past 10 days have exposed the true colors of President Obama and his administration. From edited talking points about the Sept. 11, […]

We jump in the wayback machine, and learn that “smart power” was the Obama/Hillary Clinton term for how America was going to deal with the world. It is defined by the Center for Strategic and International Studies as “an approach that underscores the necessity of a strong military, but also invests heavily in alliances, partnerships, […]

In an attempt to change the discourse from his scandal plagued reign, Peter Obama has pivoted back to the economy yet again during his Weekly Address Hi, everybody. Over the past few months, I’ve laid out a series of commonsense ideas to reignite the true engine of our economic growth: a rising, thriving middle class.

I highly doubt whether anyone will obtain information linking Obama to either the IRS or phone records scandal. Say what you will about his “governance” style, but the man is able to keep his hands clean. Surely no emails, phone records, or paper records will link him, nor will anyone say “yup, Obama (or one […]
