Republicans are on the verge of a major upset in Tuesday’s special election for New York’s 9th congressional district, the seat previously held by the now-disgraced Anthony Weiner (D). The Republican nominee, Bob Turner, leads Democratic nominee (and relentless imbecile) David Weprin by a margin of 47-41. The socialist candidate in the race, Christopher Hoeppner, [...]

The latest real-world reminder that tax hikes stifle the economy. Dear California, We’re terribly sorry to have to do this but we’re no longer a good match for each other. And trust us when we say it’s you, not us…we just can’t afford you anymore. Ever since you and your new BFF–the Affiliate Nexus Tax–started [...]

Wow: PBS Alters Transcript to Hide Obama’s Gaffe

Here’s what happened. It turns out Barack Obama went off script during his joint session speech to talk about the origins of the Republican Party. Apparently his knowledge of history is weak off-script, and he made a gaffe: He said Abraham Lincoln was the founder of the Republican Party. Which is wrong. First president? Yes. [...]

Awesome. Pure defense of the free market and the classic American way. Post it to Facebook. Spread it around like Obama wants to spread wealth around.

AFL-CIO Chief: Let’s Remember 9/11 By Fighting These Tea Partiers

Classy. Remember that this is the same guy with which Barack Obama regularly meets and who was invited by the president to attend last night’s jobs speech. He’s a regular fixture in the Obama White House. Just 10 years after 9/11, despite our vows, the public servants, construction workers and others who lost their lives [...]

If you’re unfamiliar with the scandal, check here and here and here. If you’ve been following along, continue reading. Officials from Barack Obama’s Department of Energy sat-in on board meetings for the now-bankrupt, politically-connected Solyndra “green” energy company. The officials had a close-up view of the non-viable, failing company that mysteriously managed to get a [...]

Even J Street Opposes Palestinian Statehood Bid

J Street was founded as an anti-Israel “pro-Israeli” left-wing group that could provide political cover for left-wing anti-Israeli policies. It’d be like me starting a “pro-Social Security” group that backs anti-Social Security candidates and policies. It’s anti-Social Security, but a candidate gets to claim support from and agreement with a “pro-Social Security” group. Anyway, even [...]

Democrat Seeking Weiner’s Seat: I Can’t Vote For Myself Because I Don’t Live in the District

So…yeah. The candidates were also forced to defend where they live. Weprin does not reside in the district and cannot vote for himself on Tuesday. “My mother lives in the district, and I’ll be happy to go with her to vote,” said Weprin. He would not, however, commit to moving into the district should he [...]
