Rahmie Go Bye-Bye?

Will Rahm Emanuel be the latest rat to flee the wreckage of the S.S. Hope ‘N’ Change? Jake Tapper has a tip that he’ll bail out soon. Although no final decision has been made because of family considerations, ABC News has learned that White House officials are preparing for Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel to [...]

Rahm Says We’re Righted, Jim Says We’re Back, but the Pictures Don’t Lie.

White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel apparently thinks things are going just swimmingly these days, from a certain point of view (via Cuffy Meigs’ Twitter feed). “If you take a wide-lens view of the domestic and international accomplishments, he has brought America back…We have righted the ship on the crises we inherited, and laid [...]

UK Telegraph: Rahm Gone by Year’s End; Me: 2012 Just Got A Lot More Interesting

Well, wouldn’t this make for an interesting 2011 (via allahpundit’s Twitter feed)? Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff, is expected to leave his job later this year after growing tired of the “idealism” of Barack Obama’s inner circle. Washington insiders say he will quit within six to eight months in frustration at their [...]

Conservatives Aren’t Embracing Massa, But We Are Egging Him On.

Jimmie | March 9, 2010 | Comments (2)

Both John McCormack and Michelle Malkin are warning conservatives today not to cuddle up too closely to Eric Massa. Their advice is good, but I don’t honestly know which conservatives have embraced Massa and his truckload of insanity (and examples, even in the MSM, are thin on the ground). Glenn Beck doesn’t count. He isn’t [...]

White House Blows a Great Opportunity and Makes a Busload of Schoolchildren Cry

Jimmie | May 22, 2009 | Comments (2)

I really wish I was making up that post title, but I’m not. That’s exactly what happened this morning. Thursday was supposed to be the highlight of the year for more than 100 kindergarteners from Stafford County, Va. They got up early and took a chartered bus to the White House for a school field [...]

Rahm Emanuel May Be a Great Attack Dog, But He’s A Rotten Chief of Staff

Jimmie | March 8, 2009 | Comments (4)

If even half of this is true, then we’re in serious trouble until our President gets on the stick. Sources close to the White House say Mr Obama and his staff have been “overwhelmed” by the economic meltdown and have voiced concerns that the new president is not getting enough rest. British officials, meanwhile, admit [...]

Rush’s Critics Need to Read What He Actually Said.

Jimmie | March 8, 2009 | Comments (27)

I’ve not written much about the Rush Limbaugh controversy that the White House has cooked up but, given the direction the argument has been moving among conservatives, it’s probably time I did. My post is prompted by this from Jeff Goldstein, this semi-retort my Patterico, and this overall analysis Gabriel Malor. I recommend you read [...]

Maybe Obama Could Sell the Eggs…

Jimmie | January 4, 2009 | Comments (1)

The Obama administration has suffered its first corruption casualty, even before it’s taken over. Bill Richardson, the P-E’s would-be Secretary of Commerce, has withdrawn his name from consideration due to a pending investigation into his company’s dealing with New Mexico. Richardson was Governor of that state, and also held two different positions within the Clinton [...]
