Israeli Left-Wing Activist, Terror Associate, Converts To Islam

She was convicted of aiding Muslims in carrying out terrorism, so I guess she figures she may as well become a full member of the club. Interesting that the religion of peace wants anything to do with an unrepentant terror associate, though. Israeli left-wing activist Tali Fahima, previously convicted of aiding Palestinian terrorists, told Ynet [...]

Crist Removes Pro-Life Support From Website

8. June 2010

0 Comments

Taking his hard-fought campaign for Jackass of the Year to a whole new level, Florida Governor Charlie Crist — a former Republican now running as an Independent — has scrubbed his website of references to his pro-life stance. Because you know what’s classy? Revoking your support for the unborn for political reasons. In the latest [...]

Leftists Heckle Pelosi For Not Being Liberal Enough

Really. The woman is already qualified to keynote a DSA convention, but sure enough here come the leftists to demand she force the Democratic Party to commit political suicide at an even faster rate. The video was shot at the America’s Future Now conference, where Pelosi was supposed to talk about the future of the [...]

Surprise: Wal-Mart Rivals Underwriting Community Outrage

They certainly have the right to financially back opposition movements targeted at their competitors (as far as I know). But let’s not pretend the anti-Wal-Mart movement is some grassroots operation running off the hard work and sweat of preservationists. Because it’s not. According to the Wall Street Journal, Wal-Mart competitors Supervalu, Safeway, and Ahold NV [...]

Rahm’s Rent-Free Apartment? Owned By BP Adviser

7. June 2010

1 Comment

We already knew that BP — the oil company whose destroyed rig is gushing oil into the Gulf of Mexico — has been in bed with Democrats for years now. Federal election records reveal that the company and its employees were major donors to the Obama presidential campaign. And the Obama Administration decided to give [...]

Video: Bill Clinton Goes After The Unions?

7. June 2010

0 Comments

Pardon my skepticism that this will mean anything substantive moving forward. Sure Clinton has had the fortitude to go after unions in the past (think NAFTA) but the two sides seem to reconcile shortly after and return to pushing the far-left agenda. So it’s more of an argument within the family than all-out war between [...]

Dow Closes At Lowest Point Since November

Concerns over Europe’s fiscal stability (at least according to the Associated Press) extended losses on Monday, leading the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) to give back 115 points. The index closed at 9,816 — its lowest point since November. The bigger problem isn’t that we lost 115 points today, but rather that today’s losses follow [...]

Oy Vey: Deficit Reduction Panel Needs More Money

7. June 2010

0 Comments

I feel like the grand master of the universe is just screwing with us at this point. Really? The deficit reduction panel needs more taxpayer funds than it’s been allocated? Only in Washington. Saddled with a tight deadline and great expectations, members of President Obama’s deficit reduction commission say they may not have the resources [...]

Jim Greer, Charlie Crist’s hand-picked state GOP chair, has been indicted for diverting cash from the Republican Party of Florida. Basically, he ripped off the state party and stole from its donors. But according to Greer’s attorney, the former GOP chair wasn’t the only prominent Florida politician involved. He is now saying that Charlie Crist, [...]

Poll: Just 19% Blame Israel For Flotilla Incident

7. June 2010

We’ll call the 19% the “Helen Thomas contingent”. Forty-nine percent (49%) of U.S. voters believe pro-Palestinian activists on the Gaza-bound aid ships raided by Israeli forces are to blame for the deaths that resulted in the high-profile incident. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 19% of voters think the Israelis are [...]
