Why am I reading this story in a British newspaper instead of an American one? A British-Iraqi billionaire lent millions of dollars to Barack Obama’s fundraiser just weeks before an imprudent land deal that has returned to haunt the presidential contender, an investigation by The Times discloses. The money transfer raises the question of whether [...]
Robert McCain has some thoughts about last night’s snoozer of a Democratic Debate. Last night’s Democratic debate (via Memeorandum) was merely about tactics, beginning with a discussion of the mutual finger-pointing between Hillary and Obama over whose health-care plan would provide the most coverage for the most people. Yawn. I reject the idea that it [...]
Shocking news. Kathryn Lopez has received word that William F. Buckley, Jr has died in his home in Connecticut this morning. I had heard that he was ill, but I had no idea of the severity of the illness. Buckley had, without a single doubt, the greatest influence on the development of my conservative thought. [...]
Apparently, a talk-show guy who introduces John McCain at a campaign stop yesterday went just a bit over the line. He said Barack Obama’s middle name a time or three too often, which is, as we all know, code for “Barack Obama’s a dirty stinking MOOOOOOSLAM”, right? Apparently, that’s considered an “attack” and must be [...]
You could just knock me over with a dainty little feather. Both Democratic presidential candidates, who promise to curb the influence of corporate lobbyists in Washington, helped enact narrowly tailored tax breaks sought by major campaign contributors. Oh sure, this is something you might expect from the politically-adept Hillary Clinton for whom murky political contributions [...]
I know that seems a silly question to ask. Of course it couldn’t have. All that temperature increase can’t go away that quickly, can it? Global Warming is an inexorable process and it’s on the verge of becoming a runaway threat to life on Earth, or so I keep hearing. So there’s no way it [...]
Okay, civil libertarians, it’s about the time where the rubber hits the road. We’ve heard a lot of talk from some quarters about how our rights are being eroded right out from underneath us thanks to seven years of His Fascist Chimpitude. Now, I’ve yet to actually see one of these eroded rights, but I [...]
I can’t remember the last time a headline has disappointed me as badly as the one in the New York Times today: Clinton Campaign Starts 5-Point Attack on Obama Finally, some real campaigning! There’s a debate tonight which would be the perfect time to unveil it. When can we expect Hillary to reach over and [...]
It’s not every day that you get to read the words of a Messianic Herald mere hours after they are proclaimed. Well, okay, these days it is just about every day. But that’s only because Michelle Obama, wife of the Obamessiah, keeps insisting that her husband has achieved, or will achieve, works just short of [...]
Robert McCain is back in town! It looks like he had a heck of a trip to Uganda. He’s going to be writing about the trip and I’m looking forward to reading more about his experiences. It’s good to have him back.
