Hmm, hasn’t President Snippy Pants been running around, scaring people, telling them the US credit rating will get downgraded if Someone Else doesn’t put a deal together? Not so fast, “according to PIMCO founder and managing director Bill Gross” When asked by CNN host Ali Velshi on Sunday whether the U.S. deserved to maintain its […]

ABC News is reporting that there is tentative debt deal, per “congressional sources”. Here’s the deal they are reporting, according to both Dem and GOP sources A debt ceiling increase of up to $2.1 to $2.4 trillion (depending on the size of the spending cuts agreed to in the final deal). They have now agreed […]

I know, I know, you’re saying “how could that possibly happen after two years of far left Keynesian economic policies?” The economic recovery faltered dramatically in the first half of the year, and that means more trouble ahead. The latest Commerce Department figures show that the nation’s economic output was gasping for breath long before […]

President Snippy Pants is doing what he does best: voting present, then giving speeches As House Republicans slog toward a Thursday vote on raising the debt ceiling, President Obama and his staff have hit the airwaves in a massive, all-hands-on-deck public-relations effort to turn the tide of political opinion in their favor. All told, the […]

Consider: the population of the United States is a bit over 311 million, yet, we start off with Obama unintentionally telling us that government is too damned involved in American life If nothing else, the crisis over the debt ceiling is reminding the country of the astonishing reach of the federal spigot, encapsulated by a […]

Apparently, they watched a different speech than the rest of us did. Here’s Charles Krauthammer on Obama’s Monday night repeat, via Gateway Pundit: Don Surber has some other quotes which lambaste President Snippy Pants. And So It Goes In Shreveport eviscerates (whoops, sorry, uncivil word) Obama’s class warfare scaremongering blamestorming 5 year old tantrum presser. […]

….if the first thought that came to mind was “enormous and reckless spending by Obama and the Democrats,” well, sorry, nope, uh uh, you have to go back to the B and T words With President Obama and Republican leaders calling for cutting the budget by trillions over the next 10 years, it is worth […]

Been seeing this one on Fox News a few times today, both as a commercial and as a news blurb, from the Concerned Women for America, which both Ed Morrissey and Jim Geraghty love, as do I. Of course, if there is some grand deal that the Republicans sign on to that raises taxes and […]

Surely, he is going to blame Obama and the Democrats for racking up $3 trillion in debt since Obama took office, and creating deficits of well over a trillion since he took office. Spending has skyrocketed. Obamacare creates trillions in new entitlement spending. Their policies have completely failed. Guess who gets blamed? Media reports are […]

Shocked? When both National Review and The Politico hate it……… Starting with National Review But now, along comes the Gang of Six plan, and some Republicans are apparently intrigued by it. They shouldn’t be. It’s a terrible, terrible plan. It will hand the president a huge strategic victory and deliver nothing that the GOP should […]
