Obama Weekly Address: “Soon You’ll Be Able To Only Afford To Fill Up Every Two Weeks!”

He’s still beating the “alternative energy will help save you money sometime in the future” drum, though he’s not particularly concerned with rising gas prices now Hi, everybody. I’m speaking to you this week from a factory in Petersburg, Virginia, where they’re bringing on more than 100 new workers to build parts for the next […]

White House Quietly Works To Shape Debate On ObamaCare

Interestingly, Obama still mostly avoids any mention of ObamaCare in his campaign speechs (which is pretty much every appearance he makes), but, he puts his only real knowledge, community agitation, er, organizing, to work (NY Times) The White House has begun an aggressive campaign to use approaching Supreme Court arguments on the new health care […]

Bachmann Terms Obama A “Health Care Dictator”

I usually avoid back to back posts on our Failure In Chief, but, Michele Bachmann makes some good points in between going a bit overboard (The Hill) Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-Minn.) suggested Tuesday that President Obama’s health care reform law could give the government a dangerous amount of power in individual’s health care decisions, going […]

Obama Pushing Dems To Vote Against Keystone XL Amendment

So reports the Politico President Barack Obama is intervening in a Senate fight over the Keystone XL oil pipeline and personally lobbying Democrats to reject an amendment calling for its construction, according to several sources familiar with the talks. The White House lobbying effort, including phone calls from the president to Democrats, signals that the […]

When Will Liberals Denounce RFK, Jr For His “Prostitute” Slur?

As Junk Science points out “Limbaugh mispoke. RFK Jr. actually took the time to type it out.” Weasel Zippers has a few choice words for RFK, Jr. Well, looks like there’s a Memeorandum thread up now, with a link to a Politico story (I wrote this as a draft in the am). No liberals denouncing […]

Jimmy Carter Pops Up And Blames Israel Over Iran

I thought Groundhog Day was last month. But, I guess any discussion regarding Israel defending itself wouldn’t be complete without the input of a miserable failure at being POTUS, and a rabid anti-Semite (Washington Times) Former President Jimmy Carter expressed concerns Tuesday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may be too willing to go to […]

ACLU On Targeted Killing: We’re Cool With Obama, But, We Don’t Trust Future Presidents

On first blush, I wrote the headline to reflect that it was weird for the ACLU to even attack Holder and Obama. How often do they do that? Not that often, and, the attacks are generally soft. They haven’t even bothered with Fast and Furious. On targeted killing, yes, they ACLU has been all over […]

Liberals Losing Their Collective Minds Over Rush Comments

I really thought Sunday’s post regarding Rush’s apology would be the last (and only) post on the topic, as, really this whole thing is cheap theater designed to deflect from Obama’s horrible record. I’m surprised Team Obama didn’t wait till closer to the actual election to trot the issue out. And, let’s face it, Rush […]

Obama To Congressional Dems: You’re On Your Own, Chumps

First he spends lots of time campaigning against Congress, which is obviously meant to be about Republicans, but, catches Democrats up in the negativity, too. And now he refuses to share the wealth (Politico) President Barack Obama has a bleak message for House and Senate Democrats this year when it comes to campaign cash: You’re […]

USA Today Picks Up The Mantle That Obama’s Not At Fault For Gas Prices

Ah, how times change Anyhow What can U.S. do to halt rising gas prices? Not much Rising gas prices are always a bad thing for an incumbent president, especially one heading into a tough re-election battle. But President Obama admitted in a speech in Miami recently that there’s not all that much he can do […]
