Busy Supreme Court News Day!

March 15, 2010

As it turns out, today was a busy news day regarding the ordinarily quiet SCOTUS.  Usually, without any major decisions coming down, we hardly hear anything from The Nine*.  Here are three recent stories:
First, Butler University is cool with Chief Justice John Roberts attending his niece’s graduation this May, but think Roberts is simply too [...]

The Astroturfing of the “Coffee Party”

March 13, 2010

I heard a little buzz a few weeks back about some people who are upset with government who want to organize to get this country moving in the right direction by breaking the gridlock in Washington and get our representatives to be more representative.
Sounds great, right?  Kind of sounds like the Tea Party Movement, but [...]

What to do with a Bad Poll with a Great Outcome

February 26, 2010

I kind of experienced what it must be like to be a Lib today when I read that in a CNN poll, 56% of the American people believe that “the federal government poses a threat to rights of Americans.”
“But wait!” you say, “that’s not a Liberal position!”
No, but it is a poll of “adults” [...]

Former Secretary of State Alexander Haig has died from complications resulting from an infection at the age of 85.  A distinguished Korean and Vietnam War vet, NATO Commander, and four-star general, Haig served under President Nixon and Ford as White House Chief of Staff from 1973-1974, and most famously as the State Secretary under President [...]

Phil Jones — No Significant Global Warming Since 1995

February 15, 2010

The UK Daily Mail has published this article focusing on hacked ClimateGate scientist Phil Jones’ admission that there has NOT been any statistically significant global warming since 1995!  Ouch — that’s 15 years!
Think 1995 for a second:  Newt and crew take over Congress for the first time;  Jacques Chirac becomes President of France;  the Oklahoma [...]

SDI Not So “Pie-in-the-Sky” Anymore

February 13, 2010

Yesterday, the Pentagon announced the successful test of an airborne anti-ballistic missile (ABM) defense system which used frickin’ laser beams on a modified Boeing 747 to destroy its target!   The Airborne Laser Testbed (ALTB) was just a test, but a pretty cool one.  Using a directed energy laser system, two of ALTB’s targets were destroyed.  [...]

D.C. Snow Caused by – You Guessed It, Global Warming

February 10, 2010

We’ve always joked that the typical liberal eco-nazi tactic when faced with bad winter weather is that the cooling is part of the warming.  That trend holds true today in a Time Magazine piece which is entitled D.C. Snowstorm:  How Global Warming Makes Blizzards Worse.  The premise is that warmer air leads to more intense [...]

Miss Him Yet?

February 10, 2010

Well, duh, of course we do!  But, this is an actual billboard paid for by a “group of small business owners and individuals who just felt like Washington was against them” up in Wyoming, Minnesota.  Those who paid for the billboard want to remain anonymous, but their sentiment is made plain:  as much as George [...]

Reagan’s Birthday

February 6, 2010

Ronald Reagan (February 6, 1911 — June 5, 2004) would have turned 99 today.  As a rallying point to both Conservatives and Republicans, Reagan’s legacy continues to grow as the years go by.  Many historians have had to move on from their original “amiable dunce” interpretation of Reagan to grudgingly admit or contemplate the importance [...]

Rahm’s F*&%ing Retarded Statement

February 3, 2010

The President’s Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel used the phrase “f*&%ing retarded” during a strategy session last August, which has only recently come to light.  So, here we go — the Politically-Correct Police are on the move!
Some in the news media are making a HUGE deal about this.  So Rahm needed to get the obligatory [...]

Ryan’s Take on the State of the Union Address

January 28, 2010

I didn’t like it.
Pretty succinct, huh?!
Aside from the obvious liberal crap and fake platitudes, here’s what I really didn’t like:  Obama’s Chavez-like qualities shown through a few times last night.  The way he immaturely called out the Supreme Court with a poor, populist, and inaccurate argument, knowing they couldn’t respond lest Joe Wilson-like “You Lie” [...]

New Democrat Strategy — Divide Republicans

January 26, 2010

We already know that one 2010 Democrat strategy is to blame Bush for everything, even though the Dems have had more power to yield this past year than any President/Congress combo since the Great Society.  Yet, a memo released today also indicates another prong in the Democrat attack:  divide Republicans ideologically between the weak-kneed moderate [...]

Newsweek: Obama’s Really a Centrist

January 25, 2010

Newsweek’s Jon Meacham believes that President Obama is not a “Chicago Che” or an “unreconstructed Great Society liberal” (he’s at least both, by the way), but a centrist at heart who just tried to do too much too soon — Obama was merely thinking with his head not his heart.  Meacham’s apologetic and misleading about [...]

Tea Partying the National Tea Party Convention?

January 23, 2010

Seeing the widespread grassroots power of the amorphous Tea Party Movement it should come as no shock that some have sought to create an exclusive national leadership as an attempt to coalesce the movement around certain people, events, and message.  The catch is trying to be the first ones to do it so that your [...]

Corrupt Media Desperately Tries to Save Coakley

January 13, 2010

The most obvious enemy to modern conservatism is the Democrat Party because that is the structure liberals use to win enough elections to pass and implement policies that control the lives of productive citizens and in the process undermine American strength and prosperity.  The surprisingly competitive Massachusetts Senate election shows just how important party is [...]

January 12, 2010

Check out this video making the rounds all over the Internet from last night’s debate between Republican Scott Brown and Democrat Martha Coakley for “Ted Kennedy’s”  Senate seat in the People’s State of Massachusetts:

Harry Reid and the “Negro Dialect” Issue

January 10, 2010

What’s with old Democrat Senators and unscripted and inappropriate racial comments?  I mean Harry Reid’s comment about candidate Barack Obama not having a “negro dialect” ain’t as bad as Robert Byrd’s “white n-word” statement from a few years back, but it still ain’t cool at all (by the way that same Democrat Robert Byrd, former [...]

Obama Still Blaming Bush Too

January 9, 2010

Even the MSM is starting to notice how the Obama Administration’s continuing insistence on blaming Bush for all their political woes is getting ridiculous. We already know this is the 2010 Democrat political strategy for keeping their majorities in Congress.
In less than two weeks, the Obama Nation will officially celebrate its first anniversary, with not [...]

Fool Me 8 Times and What Does that Make Me?

January 6, 2010

Everybody knows that Obama Care is being negotiated behind closed doors at the expense the democratic process.  But the Naked Emperor News was able to dig up eight instances where Obama declared that these debates would, in fact, be publicized, open and even on C-SPAN for all to see.  Here’s a YouTube version:

Obviously, the Dems [...]

Baucus Wasn’t Drunk. He Was Articulate.

December 28, 2009

Max Baucus has been getting a bad rap lately.  A few weeks ago, Max Baucus was forced to explain that he didn’t recommend his concubine for a U.S. Attorney position just because she was his concubine.  Now Baucus supporters want you to know that their man was not drunk when he delivered the following rant [...]

Climate Change is Natural? You Don’t Say…

December 15, 2009

Today, the UK’s Daily Express listed 100 Reasons why climate change is natural.  Well, of course it is!  But, apparently with all the craziness in Copenhagen, this UK news source has decided to list some pretty common sense factoids for one to chew on.
Not all on this list are completely airtight, but neither are many [...]

Welcome to Obamaville!

December 13, 2009

Check this sign out in Colorado (notice the subtle tone of the news anchors):

Think about this:  the economy started growing again in the Spring of 1991, but Bush 41 still took the heat and lost the 1992 Election on that small eight-month recession (plus his RINO stripes had shown during his term alienating Conservatives and [...]

An Icy Blast from the Past

December 6, 2009

Scanning through the Internet this morning I bumped into this Forbes article regarding the “Coming Ice Age” hysteria of the 1970s, relating it to today’s global warming hysteria.  The author, Gary Sutton, brings up a point I’ve been saying for a while — scientists live on funding, while politicians live on panic.  It’s the perfect [...]

More Suspicious Climategate Revelations

November 30, 2009

So you want to change the planet’s behavior in regards to CO2 production?  You also want to tell us that man-made global warming will destroy us all one day soon unless we act right now this very instant.  You take your Nobel Prize and wag it in front of us saying that your science is [...]

November 29, 2009

John “F’in” Kerry* finally gets some revenge on the Bush Administration through a new report on how we missed our chance to get Bin Laden in December 2001 in the mountains around Tora Bora.  However, on page 9 of the 49 page file (pdf file) Kerry notes that his report’s thesis relies on the same [...]

More horror stories from the Obama Nation as three Navy SEALs on a special ops mission to seize wanted terrorist Ahmed Hashim Abed are facing court martial for beating up Abed a little before bringing him in.  The mission, code named “Operation Amber” was designed to capture and bring to justice the man who is [...]

Another “Hack” at Global Warming

November 21, 2009

Hackers are not very nice people — all that firewall busting and information stealing.  It’s a nuisance for the Pentagon and for companies as well as an unwelcome invasion of privacy.  But sometimes they expose some interesting things, like recently when some hackers broke into a British climate research center and exposed that there was [...]

Steven Crowder’s Club Gitmo Vacation

November 17, 2009

Mainstream media outlets have exorbitant budgets and entire departments dedicated to research.  Yet somehow, a young conservative comedian manages to produce a twelve minute video that provides more actual information and context on the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay than the state-run media has produced in years of “reporting” on the facility.  Thankfully, Crowder is [...]
