People Are Not Paying Attention To What Obama Says

by Smitty She said she was honored to meet Obama, but she is also frustrated that she has yet to receive help from either her insurance companies or the government. “The president told me I would get immediate help,” she said. @jammiewf The immediate help was delivered. After that instant, however, the differences in the […]

BHO, Theoretically Best President EVAR!

by Smitty Of course, as I’m wont to say, “The difference between theory and practice is greater in practice than in theory.” The Right Scoop, and Radio Equalizer  point to Al “Not so” Sharpton, who seemingly cannot differentiate between public and private sector: One of the reasons that I think people do not understand that unemployment […]

Sun Rises In East, And President Obama Knew About Benghazi

by Smitty We explore realms of the obvious: In a blockbuster report, John Solomon, the former Associated Press and Post reporter, has ferreted out the president’s daily brief that informed him within 72 hours of the Sept. 11 attack that the Benghazi attack was a jihadist operation. Citing officials directly familiar with the information, Solomon […]

Obama Administration’s Benghazi Gambit: Protect Rice, Scapegoat CIA

A suspiciously timely scoop: CBS News has obtained the CIA talking points given to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on Sept. 15 regarding the fatal attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, four days earlier. CBS News correspondent Margaret Brennan says the talking points, which were also given to members of the House intelligence committee, […]

2013: A Century Of Progress

by Smitty Conservatives should plan to mark the century since the inauguration of Woodrow Wilson on 17 January, 1913 with somber reminders of how bad the results of Progressivism have been. The 1910 census marked the end of the House of Representatives growing to represent the people. Thus, it is in danger of being the Lesser […]

Heckuva Job, Susan Rice!

She went all over TV and repeated the administration’s lies about Libya, and how dare you criticize her! Q: Thank you, Mr. President. Senator John McCain and Senator Lindsey Graham both said today that they want to have Watergate-style hearings on the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi and said that if you nominate […]

Ace of Spades: Eric Holder Is Obviously Lying About the Petraeus Affair

The logic is impeccable: Holder’s FBI discovers the CIA chief is dangerously compromised and doesn’t tell the President? Bovine excrement! Therefore, the alternative hypothesis that Holder was negligent in not telling the President is merely an interesting counterfactual along the lines of, “What if Lee’s army had AK-47s at Gettysburg?” We know Holder is lying. The […]

Great One From Erickson

by Smitty There is no permanence in politics. All is fleeting. All is cyclical. We find comfort in our cycle and distress when others rise to the top. Right now, conservatives are bitterly disappointed. Some choose to check out mentally. Some have decided to throw in the towel. A few blame the American people. Many […]
