Bush: “I don’t want to be out there critiquing him, his every move”

Jimmie | December 3, 2008 | Comments (0)

George W. Bush is a rare man and we really should be thankful that he served us the very best he could. In his wide-ranging interview with Captain Interruption Charles Gibson, he said something that, I believe, encapsulates his goodness and humility about as well as it could be done. GIBSON: How do you mentally [...]

Friedman: Iraq’s Triumphs are Obama’s Triumphs

Jimmie | November 30, 2008 | Comments (0)

The boldness of the MSM’s bias is simply breathtaking sometimes. Thomas Friedman asserts, without any shame at all, that any triumph of the strengthening Iraqi civil society will be credited to Barack Obama. No, really. In 2003, the United States, under President Bush, invaded Iraq to change the regime. Terrible postwar execution and unrelenting attempts [...]

Will Obama Rehabilitate Bush?

Jimmie | November 29, 2008 | Comments (0)

Victor Davis Hanson takes a look at P-E Obama’s early staffing picks and concludes that the Obama administration may well improve President Bush’s reputation. I think we are slowly (and things of course could change) beginning in retrospect to look back at the outline of one of most profound bait-and-switch campaigns in our political history, [...]

Thank You, Mr. President, for Holding Fast to Your Values

Jimmie | November 28, 2008 | Comments (0)

Though I’ve not liked a lot of what President Bush has done, this statement endears me to him greatly. “I would like to be a person remembered as a person who, first and foremost, did not sell his soul in order to accommodate the political process. I came to Washington with a set of values, [...]

Suddenly, Comparing the President to Hitler Isn’t Okay

Jimmie | November 19, 2008 | Comments (0)

Wait…it’s not cool anymore to compare the President to Hitler? When the heck did that go out of style? Oh…right. The new President is a Democrat. I keep forgetting the whole progressive hypocrisy thing. JWF has some appropriately arch comments on the matter including this perfectly brutal observation. The fact anyone on the left has [...]

I Think They Might Need to Review What the Word “Protect” Means

Jimmie | November 6, 2008 | Comments (3)

You know you’re in trouble when the New York Times begins an editorial like this: This is one of those moments in history when it is worth pausing to reflect on the basic facts: Here is the most basic of the Times’ “basic facts”. You can see just how far into Bizarro World the paper [...]

Why I Don’t Love Libertarians

Jimmie | October 30, 2008 | Comments (1)

I understand that these guys are supposed to be the best and brightest that Libertarianism has to offer, but please. If you want to know why I don’t give Libertarians much love despite being one myself, that article goes a very long way toward answering that question. Especially most of the answers to Question 5.

It’s Their Party and They’ll Cry if We Make Them…

Jimmie | October 30, 2008 | Comments (1)

Here’s today’s latest election commercial from Islamist killer and probably sheep-sodomizing pedophile Abu Yahya al-Libi: O God, humiliate Bush and his party, O Lord of the Worlds, degrade and defy him… And here’s the welcome partner of several prominent Democratic members of Congress and presidential candidates Markos Moulitsas Zuniga: Now’s the time for us to [...]
