Ex-WH Counsel to Represent Goldman Sachs
This is going to hurt the left’s whole “Goldman Sachs is a Republican organization” narrative. Never mind Democratic connections to the company over the years, progressives have been trying to pain this as a right-wing scandal. Not so much. Greg Craig must really be pissed at the Obama Administration, no? Coming into the midterms, with [...]
US Forces Kill Top Two Al-Qaeda Leaders in Iraq
19. April 2010
These guys have been reported dead more times than I can remember. They’re major fish, the top two leaders of al-Qaeda in Iraq, and their deaths would deliver a significant blow against the terror group. So there have been plenty of false reports about their deaths. But this time it’s real. MNF-Iraq confirms that they’re [...]
Gates: US Lacks Strategy on Iran
17. April 2010
A secret memo from Secretary of Defense Robert Gates to White House officials reveals that the Obama Administration lacks any effective long-term strategy to deal with Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons. The New York Times reports: Several officials said the highly classified analysis, written in January to President Obama’s national security adviser, Gen. James L. [...]

16. April 2010
Disgraced Representative Eric Massa (D-NY) paid his chief of staff $40,000 from campaign funds just prior to resigning his Congressional seat. The mystery payment to Joe Racalto came on March 4th, the day before Massa resigned. It was marked as a “campaign management fee” but was the only payment made to Racalto since Massa took [...]

Fifty percent of Americans say Barack Obama doesn’t deserve a second term, while just forty-six percent say he does. That according to a Gallup poll released today.

CNN’s Rick Sanchez: Certified Moron
16. April 2010
How stupid is CNN’s Rick Sanchez? Jon Stewart devoted the better part of a segment to mocking his ignorance. We watched Sanchez act like a control freak, misplace Hawaii on a map, and express confusion about the conversion of meters to feet. Seriously, he wanted to know what meters meant “in English”. Well, Einstein’s back [...]
Report: Crist To Announce Indy Bid Today
16. April 2010
Like I said yesterday, Charlie Crist is only interested in what’s best for Charlie Crist at this moment. Even if it hurts his country or himself in the future, it’s worth it. Because it helps him right this very second. He’s a reactionary son of a bitch. LAKE MARY, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35 News) – [...]
Quick Review: Taking Chance (2009)
15. April 2010
I watched Taking Chance this evening. The 2009 film, a true story, stars Kevin Bacon as Lt. Col. Michael Strobl as he escorts home the remains of PFC Chance Phelps. It premiered at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and was picked up for HBO. It’s a must-see. This isn’t a typical Hollywood film where the [...]
Obama Laughs At Those Concerned About Taxes
15. April 2010
He’s reached a whole new level of elitism. We have record deficits, his own economic advisers are talking about instituting a national sales tax, a Gallup poll released yesterday finds six in ten Americans expecting a direct tax increase, and the Associated Press found his tax pledge was violated last April. So where’s Barack Obama? [...]

15. April 2010
Michael Yon, the famous independent war correspondent who was recently disembedded by the US military, has a couple of updates about his situation today. – First, understand that Michael Yon is not reactionary nor is he anti-American/anti-military. He’s a former member of the Special Forces and his dispatches are read by military families, individual soldiers, [...]
