AP: Unemployment Benefits Killing New Jobs
Consider it just the latest unintended consequence of the $787 billion liberal pet project appropriation (aka “stimulus bill”). The new unemployment benefits have placed yet another burden on businesses, so revenue is going towards paying the government rather than hiring new workers or retaining current ones. As if small businesses needed another reason not to [...]
David Obey: We’d Need Higher Taxes to Pay for an Afghan Surge
23. November 2009
He can’t be serious. Democrats want to spend $1.8 trillion taking over the nation’s healthcare system, have already spent $787 billion in “stimulus” legislation that has yet to stimulate anything, and support legislation (cap-and-trade) that independent studies have confirmed will cost American jobs and harm the GDP. The annual deficit is $1.4 trillion and climbing, [...]
Defense Confirms: 9/11 Suspects Will Use Trial As Their Stage
23. November 2009
Hey, remember how those nutty conservatives were concerned that the 9/11 suspects will use a civilian trial as a stage to spread their nuttiness and inflict emotional harm on Americans? Yeah, turns out those nutty conservatives were right. Defense lawyers have confirmed that their suspects will utilize the limelight to attack the United States’ foreign [...]
Poll: Support for ObamaCare Falls To New Low
23. November 2009
The inevitable end result of Americans being exposed to what the legislation actually contains rather than what liberals have claimed it contains. Exposure of the truth and facts usually hurts support for the liberal agenda. The latest survey from Rasmussen Reports shows just 38% of the public supporting the Democratic efforts to socialized the nation’s [...]
Hacked Emails Expose Global Warming Conspiracy
20. November 2009
Computers at a major global warming alarmist center in the United Kingdom were hacked the other day, resulting in private emails being posted on the internet. What was found contained within those emails has set the internet ablaze. The organization in question is the University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit, considered a leading organization [...]
Busted Again: L.A. ACORN Office Exposed Trying to Further Underage Prostitution
19. November 2009
Hey, remember when ACORN claimed that no other offices had been fooled by investigative journalists James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles? That everywhere else they tried their skit they were turned down by local employees? That helping further underage prostitution and tax fraud was strictly limited to offices in Maryland, New York, California, and our nation’s [...]
Surprise: Housing Takes “Unexpected” Tumble
19. November 2009
To listen to much of the mainstream (read: lefty) media these days, you’d think the economy’s doing just dandy thanks to President Obama’s policies. Happy days are here again, we’re lead to believe by the same commentators who cried wolf when unemployment was about 5% under President Bush. And yet the national unemployment rate currently [...]
Schumer In 2001: 9/11 Terrorists Won’t Get Civilian Trials
19. November 2009
Schumer probably would’ve been right had a Republican won the presidency in 2008, but we now have a liberal Democratic pantywaist occupying the Oval Office and he wants to put on a show trial for political benefit. So we’re left with a war criminal being tried like a car jacker in a civilian court just blocks [...]
Obama: Closing Gitmo By January? Uh…Never Mind
18. November 2009
This is a promise I’m glad he ended up breaking, of course, but it’s a broken promise nevertheless. And it’s just the latest in a seemingly endless series. Apparently talking about closing the detention center during a campaign is easier than actually closing it. As they say, governing is hard to do. President Obama acknowledged [...]
We’re Now Fighting Global Warming With Free Condoms
18. November 2009
Is anyone surprised that the same people who support abortion (not just a right to choice, mind you, but abortion) are now using condoms to fight “global warming”? As Michelle Malkin says, it’s about population control. The battle against global warming could be helped if the world slowed population growth by making free condoms and [...]
