Last Friday, President Obama gave a speech in Roanoake, VA in which he excoriated business owners and the “successful” for their rampant greed and confronted them with the truth about how they built their businesses.

Brian Williams was right last night when he said the story of Operation Fast and Furious and yesterday’s contempt hearing was complex. Perhaps if he and the rest of his merry MSM brigade had reported diligently on the story, it’d be easier to understand.

President Obama gave a speech Wednesday, a part of which genuinely boggled my mind. Now, I know you’re probably thinking I’ll quote a stirring bit of admiration of the heroes who stormed the beaches of Normandy so many years ago.

I admit, I didn’t watch President Obama’s State of the Union address. I rarely watch big Presidential speeches live; I get a far better sense of the speech when I wait a little bit and read the full text (and you can get that text from the peerless Andrew Malcolm here). I’m glad I read [...]

I admit, I love a good political rant. Over the years, I’ve heard a lot of them and I’ve found that those who do it best — Rush Limbaugh, Dennis Miller, and Bill Whittle sit at the top of that short list — combine passion with reason and humor. Most folks who step to the [...]
