Obama Cut Your Taxes, and Other Lies Frank Rich Wants You to Believe In

You’ve got to marvel at the effrontery of the man: President Obama, the Rodney Dangerfield of 2010, gets no respect for averting another Great Depression, for saving 3.3 million jobs with stimulus spending, or for salvaging GM and Chrysler from the junkyard. And none of these good deeds, no matter how substantial, will go unpunished […]

President’s Cousin Devastates BHO’s Centerpiece Legislation

by Smitty The doctor has weighed in. To summarize, the diagnosis is that the President is his own man, and no one can take that away from him, but the country really can’t sustain snorting all this policy Drano. Let’s you and I hold a public discussion on America’s health care for those C-SPAN cameras […]

‘I Want Your Money’ Was On The Money, Indeed

by Smitty I give it eight out of ten on IMDB. The movie essentially juxtaposes the Gipper and BHO personally, while building a mostly linear historical framework of Progressivism in which to drop the ideological conflict. I Want Your Money works for at least three audiences: Conservatives will have a blast enjoying Reagan, McCotter, Gingrich […]

Obama Went Down To Delaware

by Smitty Obama going to Delaware on Friday? Via AmericanGlob, Rush says it’s all panic. Allahpundit likes the WaPo analysis: Obama isn’t just visiting; he is also bringing Vice President Biden, who formerly occupied the Senate seat and has already campaigned on behalf of Coons. Democratic officials insisted the stop isn’t all about celebrating their […]

OBAMA COMING TO BOSTON!

BOSTON — Gov. Deval Patrick’s campaign announced today that President Obama will be here Saturday for a fundraiser and public rally at the Hynes Convention Center. Every Tea Party and 9/12 group in Massachusetts is calling for volunteers to greet the president. We remember the turnout in January when Obama came to Boston to campaign […]

Allen West to Obama: ‘Heck, I’ll Even Debate You and Klein Together’

When Florida Democrat Ron Klein’s campaign announced that the incumbent would bring in President Obama and Nancy Pelosi for a big-money Oct. 11 fundraiser, his 22nd District challenger Allen West declared, “Welcome to the jungle.” Now the Republican has formalized that invitation in a new 30-second TV spot: Welcome to South Florida Mr. President. You and Ron Klein should leave […]

Nefarious Or Stuck In A Kafka Machine, You Decide

by Smitty (h/t House of Eratosthenes) I’m going to risk irritating Andrew Cline at the American Spectator just a tad bit by rejecting this assertion: Campaigning in Des Moines, Iowa, yesterday, the President repeated his biggest health care reform whopper: You can keep your current health insurance. Here is what he said: “There’s nothing in […]
