Your Juvenile/Hypocritical DKos Post of the Day
Granted, juvenile and hypocritical posts on the Daily Kossack isn’t anything new. In fact, a difficult task would be finding one that doesn’t fit into one of those two categories (or both). But here’s one coming at you from the top post on the front page. “He’s your president now!” A little odd coming from [...]
Blue Dogs Starting to Crack Down on Obama Stimulus
20. January 2009
It’s nice to see that not all Democrats are so enthralled with the Messiah that their sole goal will be to pass what he wants. Rep. Heath Shuler (D-NC) is rightly concerned that the stimulus is just going to be one big pet projectpalooza. Shuler, who twice voted against the $700 billion bank rescue and [...]
Classless Jerks Jeer Bush At Inauguration
20. January 2009
How unclassy were they? The guy seen talking about MSNBC opening its “heart to change” was pleading that they wouldn’t do it even as they did. The reception by the Obama cultists didn’t stop at booing. Take note of the people wearing Obama pins and other merchandise chanting, “nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey, [...]
Dems Lose Potential Senate Frontrunner in Florida
17. January 2009
The only Democrat in a statewide office in the Sunshine State, Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink, will not be seeking the Senate seat being vacated by Mel Martinez in 2010. That’s according to the Miami Herald, which points out that the field is now open to less-known donkeys. Sink, the only statewide officeholder on the [...]
Obama To Create “Loophole” For Enhanced Interrogation
16. January 2009
Not that that’s a huge surprise, just that it’s nice to see him recognize the importance of being able to take interrogation a step further in a life-or-death scenario. You know, even if he did use the same policy to hit the Bush Administration and win the election over. Simply amazing how quickly The One’s [...]

15. January 2009
Via Michelle Malkin, CNN has identified the pilot of U.S. Airways flight 1549 — the flight that crashed into the Hudson River — as Chesley B. “Sully” Sullenberger. Sullenberger leads an aviation safety firm, aside from his regular job, and is a veteran of the United States Air Force. We often hear that captains will [...]
What If I Didn’t Pay Taxes?
15. January 2009
That’s what Roger Simon of Politico asks in his newest column. I offer this not so much for the commentary, but rather for the nice little summary Simon provides. He didn’t pay all of his federal taxes for years. Then, after Obama decided to name him treasury secretary, Obama’s vetting team discovered Geithner’s little oversight. [...]
Breaking: US Airways Jet Crashes in Hudson River Update: All Off Alive
15. January 2009
Absolutely horrible. Fire and police boats, apparently private crafts, and at least one water taxi are on the scene. There were reportedly 150+ people on board. There are many survivors, according to Fox. Update: A fricking miracle. Shep Smith and other sources say that police sources confirm all passengers made it off alive. Several en [...]
Obama Arrives at Washington Post to “Cheers”
15. January 2009
Bias? What bias? I’m sure that President Bush’s arrival at WaPo would be met with the same reception. If it’s not out of respect for the office, what else is it but political bias on display? After three and a half hours at his transition office, PEOTUS obama took another 6 minute ride through washington, [...]
