We now know the names of nine of the twelve members of Congress who will make up the Joint Committee. This committee’s job is to find at least $1.5 trillion in “deficit reduction” from the next ten years of federal budgets that will likely total more than $37 trillion. John Heyward has a good bit [...]
You may think you have plumbed the depths of idiocy in the debt ceiling debate, but you have not. I warn you, if you continue to read this post, you will come across an idea so stupid that it may well blast large parts of knowledge from your brain that you may not be able [...]
Oh, dear. The Republicans have done it now. They’ve gone and made the effete left-wingers at the New York Times so miffed that they felt the need to write an editorial full of many harsh words. House Republicans have lost sight of the country’s welfare. It’s hard to conclude anything else from their latest actions, [...]
I haven’t written much about the growing News of the World scandal, mostly because it’s still a very new story and there is no way for anyone to know how it will play out based on how it’s played out thus far. I don’t doubt that people will go to jail; it’s obvious that quite [...]
It boggles my mind that Michele Bachmann was so pressed by the scurrilous Daily Caller story on her migraines that she felt the need to bring a note from her doctor. This is from a press-release I received today from her campaign. Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann released a letter today from The Attending Physician [...]
Really, left-wing media? That’s the story? Palin spent a lot of money to get a custom paint job on her tour bus? Well, okay, but as Stacy McCain notes, at least that money went to small businesses and other folks not employed by Big Poppa Government. Of course, I’m sure the guys employed by the [...]
There are days I am immensely proud of my friends. Today is one of those days. Prompted by the story about which I wrote in this post, Ben Domenech posted a series of tweets that together are as eloquent a defense of the wonder that is America as I’ve ever read. With his permission, I [...]
Man, I love it when the left starts firing on itself, and these days, it’s been happening at lot more often. Mark Halperin, of Time magazine and a frequent contributor to the shrieking monkey cage that is MS-NBC, uttered an indelicate phrase about the Obamessiah and was subsequently sent into a television time-out for a [...]
I get that a significant portion of the MSM is in the tank for President Obama. That doesn’t bother me quite as much as it does come conservatives. I can discount most of what’s reported by the major media as thinly-veiled propaganda or ignorance borne of comfort and laziness. I do get insulted, though, when [...]
What insightful question did CBS News have for Bachmann? Did their ace dig into one of her policy position on energy independence, taxation, the relationship between government and business, foreign policy Heh. No. Of course not. CBS News sent a reporter to ask whether or not she and her husband really did raise 23 foster [...]
