Police Now Enforcing Sharia Law in Michigan
23. June 2010
In case you don’t know, sharia is the fundamentalist legal system of Islam. It prescribes unthinkable treatment for “crimes” as seemingly accepted as converting to other religions. In fact, proselytizing to Muslims — that is, informing them of another religious option — is illegal under sharia. Not a big threat here in the United States, [...]

The crowd is now cheering for whomever appears to be on the verge of victory. Update: Now it’s 58-58 and it’s time [...]
Obama Administration Considering Price Controls for Health Insurance
23. June 2010
What could go wrong? Oh, right, the same thing that went wrong when Richard Nixon implemented price controls that resulted in stagflation.

23. June 2010
When Judge Martin Feldman threw out the Obama Administration’s unlawful six-month moratorium on off-shore drilling, you had to know the left and its allies in the media would go after the judge.

Federal Government Halts Berm Dredging
23. June 2010
This is getting ridiculous. I understand the federal government needs to cover the Obama Administration’s incompetent ass by making sure local officials look no more competent, but come on. Shutting down the sand berm dredging to run CYA for the president? Pathetic. NEW ORLEANS — The federal government is shutting down the dredging that was [...]
Obama Administration To Reimpose Drilling Moratorium
23. June 2010
The federal judge threw out the moratorium because the administration’s justification seemed to be that one rig’s failure meant that all rigs from all companies posed an imminent risk. So the Obama Administration will reimpose the unlawful ban under the guise of…providing the same reasoning in more words? WASHINGTON (AP) – Interior Secretary Ken Salazar [...]
Obama Energy Secretary in 2007: BP Will Help Save The World
22. June 2010
