Your Right to Vote Ends where the Bigot’s Billyclub Begins

Jimmie | June 1, 2009 | Comments (3)

This question gets to be tiring, but it’s worth asking. What do you think the outcry would have been had the men in this case been Klan members? Jennifer Rubin has the real heart of the story. Neither the men nor anyone from their organization bothered to show up at the trial. The judge ordered [...]

America is Getting Fed Up

Jimmie | May 26, 2009 | Comments (8)

I like the way Smitty put this: This administration needs to become the Battle of the Bulge for the collectivists, the time where they threw in everything to the last union, acorn, and unicorn but couldn’t quite crush the American spirit. Smitty links to this Peter Robinson column in Forbes that I recommend you read [...]

It’s a PelosiPalooza and You’ll Never Guess Whose Side the MSM is On (UPDATED: Good for the RNC!)

Jimmie | May 23, 2009 | Comments (8)

Jennifer Rubin says the Washington Post buried its lede badly when it didn’t mention until late in its story that lawmakers from both parties not only approved EITs but asked briefers if there was some authority Congress could give them to help. But there, you see, is the nub of the matter. At the time [...]

The Dems are Either Okay with Pelosi’s Smear or a Criminal CIA. Which One?

Jimmie | May 21, 2009 | Comments (22)

A week ago, Nancy Pelosi, the person two heartbeats away from being the President of the United States, accused the CIA of committing a serious crime. Today, Republicans proposed a bipartisan four-member commission to investigate that criminal allegation. The crime carries with it a jail sentence of up to eight years. The Democrats defeated it [...]

The Pelosi saga rolls on with yet another story about What Nancy Knew and When She Knew It. For those of you keeping track, this is now the fifth time she’s changed her story. So far, these are the stories she’s used: 1) I knew nothing about waterboarding. 2) I knew about waterboarding, but not [...]

Jimmie | May 12, 2009 | Comments (3)

You know those stories you’ve been hearing about the hundreds of thousands of jobs we’ve lost over the past few months? Well, you don’t know how lucky you are. The Obama administration’s fiscal stimulus plan will meet previous estimates to save 3.5 million U.S. jobs by the end of 2010, but the unemployment rate at [...]

Capita-What Again?

Capitalism? Pfffft! “You don’t need banks and bondholders to make cars,” said one administration official. Professor Bainbridge says, “…that official — who’s probably never run any business more complicated than a lemonade stand — will soon discover just how wrong s/he was.” I really don’t think so. See, the official was right in a totalitarian [...]

My President Scared the Bejeezus Out of Manhattan and All I Got Was this Lousy Photograph

Jimmie | May 6, 2009 | Comments (7)

So after telling us that no way, no how would we get the pictures of Air Faux One buzzing the Statue of Liberty, the administration has relented. According to Robert Gibbs, the White House has graciously decided to release one whole photograph along with its review of the incident. One. That’s it. That’s all we [...]
