Oh, Noes! Tea Parties Failed, Per HuffPo

I find it truly funny that the Left is so scared by the TEA Parties. They are out there saying they are “carefully orchestrated by Republican think tanks, funded by large corporations, and advertised by none other than Fox News.” They’re misconstruing what the purpose was, either because they just don’t get it, or intentionally […]

How’s That Federally Funded ESC Research Going?

Mixed bag: Some Stem Cell Research Limits Lifted The Obama administration announced Friday that it planned to lift some but not all federal financing restrictions on human embryonic stem cell research, drawing criticism both from abortion opponents and from scientists who had expected a more liberal policy.

Napolitano Ignored Civil Liberties Lawyers For “Right Wing Extremists” Hit Job

So, while Jazz Shaw at “The Moderate Liberal Voice” is wringing his hands over Bush supposedly targeting veterans as right wing extremists in the waning days, but completely missing the point (read Ed Morrisseys analysis, first paragraph after the blockquote in particular), I’m wondering when he and the rest of the so-called civil liberties protectors […]

Sarkozy Calls Obama Weak And A Neophyte

Your humor story of the day The US President is weak, the Spanish leader is dim, the German Chancellor is clinging on to France’s coat-tails and the head of the European Commission is irrelevant. That, at any rate, is the world according to President Sarkozy, who has spent the week airing his unvarnished opinions of […]

Torture Documents: What’s The Deal And Who Cares?

Excitable Andy No mention of the torture memos appears right now on the Drudge Report (which provides news of a prank at Dominos pizza), Instapundit (which mentions the new DVD for the Lord of The Rings trilogy), Pajamas Media, or Michelle Malkin. They are reacting to the evidence of war crimes committed by the president […]

OCPs: Will Seek Out Americans And Slaughter Them

Meanwhile, French forces detained 11 hijackers […]

Napolitano Apologizes To Veterans For DHS Report – Video Added

Or, does she? Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano apologized to veterans after a report issued by her department said troops returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were at risk for being recruited by right-wing extremists. “To the extent veterans read it as an accusation — and apology is owed,” she said in an […]

Obama May Drop Key Pre-Condition For Iran Talks

Well, he did say he would sit down with Mohmoud Ahmadinejad without any pre-conditions. I supposed this is a step in that direction The Obama administration and its European allies are preparing proposals that would shift strategy toward Iran by dropping a longstanding American insistence that Tehran rapidly shut down nuclear facilities during the early […]

Hell Of A Job With North Korea, President Neophyte

If only Obama hadn’t taken his eye off the ball with North Korea, had told Pyongyang he was interested in unilateral negotions, had listened to what North Korea had to say instead of isolating them from the world community, we might not have had North Korea go down a route which reflects the failure of […]

Gallup Poll Apparently Says Us Teabaggers Are Out Of Touch (?)

So says one of the leading Nutroots voices at MyDD I’m sure it hasn’t gone unnoticed that I’ve been blogging a lot lately about how out of touch the right-wing is with mainstream public opinion. There is a consensus in this country of support for our president as well as his agenda that is driven […]
