People Less HopeyChangey On Barry’s Economy

I wonder how he will blame this on Bush? He spent more time yesterday blaming Bush, excuse me, the previous administration, during his jobs speech (which Rush Limbaugh tore apart, check out this post by Nice Deb), and is now saying he was against the TARP, despite voting for it. And people are not enthused […]

Iran’s Burning Yet Again

I wonder if our supposed peace lovin’, freedom for all, human rights matter (except when it is inconvenient for Socialist positions) administration will take notice, and whose side they will take?

President Chump Uses Weekly Address To Prop Up His Crappy Policies

And, of course, make it All About Barry. Starting with his crappy policies (which he, if you remember, outsourced to Congress) So, it is true that we, as a country, are in a very different place than we were when 2009 began. Because of the Recovery Act and a number of other steps we’ve taken, […]

Most Transparent Admin Evah! Blocks Testimony On Party Crashers
