U.S. Has “Credible” Threat of Al Qaeda Attack
The American intelligence community has received credible information pertaining to a potential Al Qaeda terrorist attack on the anniversary of 9/11, ABC News reports. At least three individuals — one believed to be a U.S. citizen — entered the U.S. in August by air with the intent to launch a vehicle-borne attack against Washington D.C. [...]
Confirmed: Tonight’s Speech is a Political Speech
8. September 2011
We already knew as much. His talking points, which were blasted to DNC operatives, have him blaming Republicans and pushing for tax hikes. It’s red meat for his base. But now Mark Knoller of CBS News reports that Obama has sent out a pre-speech political email to his supporters. In it, he tells them to [...]
Romney Compared Social Security to a Criminal Enterprise
8. September 2011
Hey, Mitt? Perhaps you could relent in your self-righteous slamming of Rick Perry’s Social Security “The system is broken” comments long enough to explain this: Last night, Romney said, “Under no circumstances would I ever say, by any measure, it’s a failure. It is working for millions of Americans.” However, in his book “No Apology: [...]
Even Democrats Tired of Obama Blaming Congress
8. September 2011
I touched on this in my last post: The speech also blames Congress in general for inaction, which means he’s trying to offload blame that should be assigned to him to not only Republicans but his fellow Democrats, too. He’ll throw anyone and everyone under the bus to deflect blame from himself. And now de [...]
In Speech Tonight, Obama to Blame Republicans and Push for Tax Hikes
8. September 2011
The same tired crap we’ve heard a million times before. As expected. Now can we move on to football? The White House’s pre-speech spin ramped up this morning when Carney appeared on morning TV shows to announce that the president’s package of proposals will be collectively titled “The Americans Jobs Act.” The talking points begin [...]
Major Legal Flaw Discovered in ObamaCare Legislation
8. September 2011
Note to the left: This is why you don’t rush through legislation that hasn’t been read. Government-created exchanges are places for individuals to shop and purchase health insurance. ObamaCare will require individuals and families to buy insurance, starting in 2014. Those with incomes at 100% to 400% of the federal poverty level will be eligible [...]
Union Thugs Take Guards Hostage at Washington Port
8. September 2011
Not an exaggeration — union thugs took guards hostage at a port in Washington. The face of union activism. Work is at a standstill at the ports in Seattle and Everett as a labor dispute that started Thursday morning turned violent. At least 500 longshoremen stormed the Port of Longview about 4:30 a.m., broke out [...]
FBI Raids Obama Favorite and Now-Bankrupt Solyndra
8. September 2011
Federal authorities this morning raided the now-closing Solyndra solar company — a pet project of the Obama Administration, which mysteriously provided the non-viable company with $535 million in l0w-interest loans. FBI agents armed with search warrants descended this morning on bankrupt solar company Solynrda this morning. The investigation comes after a request by the Department [...]
Is Rick Perry Still Electable?
8. September 2011
Well, now I’m lost. Rick Perry has an outstanding record on job creation. One that would knock Barack Obama’s socks off. And Americans love job creation. But you know what Americans love more than job creation? Unsustainable entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare. Americans don’t want to hear the truth: That Social Security is [...]
AOL Fires Michael Arrington of TechCrunch
7. September 2011
A bunch of freaking geniuses over at AOL, huh? First they (disastrously) buy Huffington Post for more than it’s worth, then they fire Michael Arrington because he wants TechCrunch to have editorial independence from the Huffington machine. Instead, Fortune has learned that AOL executives have decided to terminate Arrington. It is unclear how this will [...]
