Reminder: Obama Only Leader to Bow to Akihito

15. November 2009

1 Comment

The White House and its defenders in the left-wing media are trying to spin President Obama’s bow to Japanese Emperor Akihito as simple protocol and respect for the figurehead leaders of other nations. Those evil Republicans are just so Cowboyish and out-of-touch that they don’t understand common courtesy, or so we’re told. There are only [...]

Poll: British Voters Don’t Buy Man-Made Global Warming

14. November 2009

I’m actually shocked. Britain is usually considered a nation on the forefront of the global warming alarmism, pushing for economy-killing restrictions at climate change meetings across the globe. The United Kingdom signed and ratified the Kyoto Protocol, while its leaders are consistently preaching about carbon emissions and saving the planet. And yet here we are. [...]

Flashback: NYT Blasted Clinton For Almost Bowing to Royalty

14. November 2009

Anyone really think for a second that the Paper of Record Official Liberal Newsletter will blast Barack Obama for his full, blatant bow to Emperor Akihito? Considering the paper (to the best of my knowledge and search skills) said nothing about his similar bow to Saudi King Abdullah, smart money is on “no”. And yet [...]

Anita Dunn Hints Obama Approved Her Attacks on Fox News

She may be going quickly but she’s not going quietly. Anita Dunn, outgoing White House Communications Director, hinted in an interview that President Barack Obama himself approved of her attacks on Fox News. Here’s the relevant section of the Bloomberg interview: HUNT: Just – just – just a follow-on on this. Was President Obama aware [...]

Good News: Obama (Literally) Bows To Another Royal Figurehead

14. November 2009

2 Comments

A few thoughts here. The first thing that comes to my mind is how this is a metaphor for Obama’s entire foreign policy: America bowing to foreign powers, trying to win the love of other nations by kissing their leader’s asses and making itself subordinate to the interests of other countries. Losing dignity and putting [...]

Video: Obama Refuses to Defend Bombing of Hiroshima, Nagasaki

14. November 2009

I’ve never quite understood the problem today’s Democrats have had with defending the decision of another Democrat, President Harry Truman, to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Surely no one thinks it was an attractive option. I can’t say I know someone who is totally psyched over the thought of killing over 140,000 people in the span [...]

Obama: Hey, Let’s Cut the Deficit!

13. November 2009

0 Comments

This coming from a guy who turned a $400 billion annual deficit into a $1.4 trillion annual deficit in just nine months, who just racked up a $176.36 billion deficit for the month of October alone, and who wants to pass a government take-over of the healthcare system that would add hundreds of billions of [...]

Napolitano: How About Amnesty for Illegal Aliens in 2010?

13. November 2009

1 Comment

Sure, why not. The deficit will reach a new high, unemployment will be on the rise, and Democrats will be defending their seats in typically conservative districts. Seems like the perfect time for Democrats to suggest giving amnesty to 12 million illegal aliens because they’re apparently doing jobs Americans won’t do. Like working in factories [...]

Dem Senator: You Know What’s A Stupid Idea? Criminal Trials for Terrorists

13. November 2009

Not all Democrats are on board with the Obama Administration’s decision to treat murderous terrorists like your run-of-the-mill civil criminal. In fact, one powerful Senate Democrat is being vocal about his opposition to the disastrous plan. Senator James Webb (D-WV) says that suspects believed responsible for killing 3,000 innocent Americans don’t belong on American soil [...]

Government Claims Sale of One Lawnmower Saves Fifty Jobs

13. November 2009

0 Comments

Only the government would claim that the sale of one lawnmower costing $1,047 saved a total of fifty jobs. The private sector and most normal people would call “bullsh*t” immediately. Props to the New York Times for reporting on the waste. In June, the federal government spent $1,047 in stimulus money to buy a rider [...]
