Christine O’Donnell Cancels Sunday Morning Appearances At Last Minute
And no, it wasn’t just a slap at the left-wing media, either. She canceled on FOX News Sunday — the home network of Sean Hannity, one of her most prominent supporters. So she just dumped everyone, including a network known for featuring commentary in support of her bid. Classy. Christine O’Donnell, the GOP nominee for [...]
School Apologizes After Students Prayed to Allah on Field Trip
18. September 2010
A school district in Massachusetts has been forced to apologize after video revealed students participating in Muslim prayers during a field trip to a local mosque. The incident occurred in May when a social studies class from Wellesley Middle School toured the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center, one of the largest mosques in the [...]
Rick Sanchez Sells Literally Hundreds of Copies of His Book
18. September 2010
Hundreds! Rick Sanchez has been on the air promoting Conventional Idiocy a lot recently – 36 times in the last three weeks. So how did the book sell? According to numbers Mediaite obtained from Bookscan, Sanchez’ book sold 802 copies in its first week. The Bookscan number is generally the accept metric in the book [...]
Here We Go: Polling Stations Are Open in Afghanistan
18. September 2010
For a pretty good analysis of the imminent Afghan parliamentary election, might I suggest Colonel Clayton Perce who provided support during the 2009 presidential election. He runs down the good, bad, and ugly. Basically: The good: Afghans will vote, which is significant in a country like Afghanistan. The bad: There will be corruption. Fake registration [...]
French Foreign Minister: Mullah Omar is in Pakistan
18. September 2010
As both he and Bill Roggio note, it’s no big secret that Mullah Omar — the leader of the Taliban and former Afghan head of state — is being harbored somewhere in Pakistan. But it’s interesting to see a somewhat high-profile global leader admit as much. “It’s not a secret for anyone, everyone knows that [...]
Murkowski Resigns From Senate GOP Leadership
17. September 2010
She’s running a write-in campaign because she can’t come to terms with rejection. So she loses her seniority and leadership spot. Conservatives like myself will miss her like a hemorrhoid. Now, about the write-in campaign. As I’ve said before, she won’t actually win the seat. Momentum for conservatives aside, that would rely on too many [...]
Barack Obama Mocks Liberals at $30,000/Plate Dinner
17. September 2010
You know the surest way to present yourself as an elitist? Mock even your party’s most loyal activists behind closed doors at a $30,000 per plate dinner. Democrats, just congenitally, tend to get — to see the glass as half empty. (Laughter.) If we get an historic health care bill passed — oh, well, the [...]
House Democrat’s Ad Features Word “Republican” Multiple Times
17. September 2010
See, he never directly claims he’s a Republican. He just has people who say they’re Republicans supporting him. Oh, and he conveniently never gets around to mentioning the fact he’s a Democrat. All a coincidence, I’m sure. The slimy guy in question here is Harry Mitchell, running for re-election in Arizona’s 5th Congressional district. He [...]
Los Angeles Received $111 Million in Stimulus Funds, Created 54 Jobs
16. September 2010
Not 5,400. Not 54,000. Not even 540. Just 54. That means Uncle Sam spent more than $2 million for each job Los Angeles created. I’m no economist, but that doesn’t seem like a bargain. DPW has received $70.65 million and created or retained 45.46 jobs, though they are expected to create 238 jobs overall (the [...]
Good News: Scourge of Society to Play Super Bowl Halftime Show
16. September 2010
Halftime performers over the past few years have included Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Prince, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, and The Who. So apparently the NFL decided it was time for a crappy halftime show. And who better to achieve that goal than the Black Eyed Peas? Well, FOX Sports Chief Executive David Hill got [...]
