Why Chris Christie Will Not Be President in 2013
If you follow conservative politics even a little, you know that NJ Governor Chris Christie is a rock star. Over the past year or so, his name continues to come up as a real contender for the White House in 2012. The only problem is, he’s repeatedly and forcefully said he won’t run. That hasn’t stopped [...]
Clearing the Browser Tabs - Union Beatdown Monday Edition
Well, this weekend in Wisconsin went pretty much as we figured it would. The progressives attempted a gigantic nationwide rally, which fizzled (via memeorandum), the protesters who did show up let fly with the vitriol, racism, and physical violence of which the right has been accused since at least the very first Tea Party rally, [...]
Clearing the Browser Tabs - Hashtag Game Sunday Edition
If you use Twitter, even a little bit, you’ll have seen a hashtag game.

Clearing the Browser Tabs - Hooray Friday Edition
Hooray for Friday! Can I get an Amen? And now, links! Run, do not walk, to Fingers Malloy’s latest piece at News Real Blog, which gives an entirely new take on the union thug’s assault against Tabitha Hale. I’ll give you a tease: Karate Kid 2 is involved. “That’s your problem. You’re an entrepreneur, so [...]
The Dream Police, They Coming to Give You Health Care, Oh No!
Well, this is certainly a novel defense of Obamacare. Unfortunately for us, it was made by a federal judge and now has the binding power of law until a higher judge can strike it down for the codswallop it is. As previous Commerce Clause cases have all involved physical activity, as opposed to mental activity, [...]
