Granholm: Criticizing Chevrolet Is “Un-American”

17. August 2010

0 Comments

More specifically, criticizing the Chevy Volt is “un-American”. And so we’ve reached a point where the Democratic governor of Michigan has decided that anyone who criticizes a specific product made by a specific automaker should have his patriotic credentials revoked. Hope’nChange, baby. By the way, she’s lying about what Rush Limbaugh actually said. Limbaugh repeatedly [...]

Apocalypse: Bill Clinton Visits Newsmax Offices

16. August 2010

Just the latest evidence that Bill Clinton was and is a shrewder communicator/bullshitter than Barack Obama ever has been. Obama relied on media apologia and cover-ups. He never had to work for positive media coverage. If he actually had to use his own political skills, he’d still be a community organizer. Newsmax is an apologetically [...]

We already know that Democrats face major losses in November. Even the most casual political observer can tell you that the nation’s leftist party risks losing control of one or both chambers of Congress. But much of the bad news is spread out over days or even weeks. So let’s put all, or at least [...]

What could the leadership of the Ground Zero mosque possibly do to further prove that they’re lying when they talk about tolerance and building bridges? I mean, the imam has already gone on record backing an Islamic take-over of the legal system and saying the United States deserved the 9/11 attacks. And the leadership refuses [...]

Bill Kristol: Senate Should Condemn Victory Mosque Plan

16. August 2010

0 Comments

I like the idea. First of all, just because the federal government can’t legally just shut down the project doesn’t mean it should condone the same. There’s no constitutional or general legal barrier to the United States Congress condemning a private project, at least as far as I know. Second, there should be a bipartisan [...]
