Don’t Touch My Birth Certificate Junk

by Smitty Ann Althouse: You could criticize Obama for wasting our time by not just releasing the damned thing earlier. But he could have thought it was demeaning to have to do this, so I’m inclined to give him a pass. No, really: if we are truly an egalitarian society, then there is no pass […]

Trump Certainly Heightens The
Dramatic Tension

by Smitty I, for one, am thankful that the birth certificate release proved to be pure anti-climax. Let this be a lesson to everyone to avoid investing energy in distractions. Try not to notice the amount of Obama Exceptionalism that was brought to bear. The blog seems to have its comb-over in place today. Professor […]

2012: Still A Muddle

by Smitty Rich Galen at CNSNews contrasts BHO with predecessors’ approval ratings at this point in their first administration. Carter was doing about 10 points worse. The interesting point is that BHO’s approval equals that of the Gipper: The best example is Ronald Reagan whose 43 percent matches Obama’s current rating. Reagan, let us remember, […]

Respecting Lawrence O’Donnell

The fact that the Progressive Faith arrives in a sodomized expression of Christianity comes close to triggering a puke reflex. It happens. May Heaven have mercy upon you, Lawrence O’Donnell, and the […]

Progressive Economics Fail At The Huffington Post

by Smitty Over at SOL/PuffHo, they just don’t get the new Progressive Economics. Jobs are what matter. Product? Not so much. Thus, if the State of Illinois pays for signs with spelling errors, that isn’t a bug, that’s a feature! Workers and materials suppliers will be kept busy moving the location of the typo all […]

VIDEO: Obama Sermonizes About This Silly Distraction From His Incompetence

Professor Glenn Reynolds: The White House may think it’s sprung a trap, but I think they waited too long. By now — as the polls from earlier this week showing how many independents thought Obama wasn’t born here, and which probably prompted the release decision, indicate — the damage is done. UPDATE: We now have […]
