A Democrat Admits the Truth
When a Democrat says something that’s actually true, that’s what we call “news,” and Rep. Pete Stark calls the debt-ceiling debate a “charade.” “Charade,” “kabuki dance” — to-may-to, to-mah-to — Obama and Harry Reid are putting on a political pageant that doesn’t deceive anyone with enough brains to see what’s really going on. Andy at […]
Obama’s Foreign Policy Is About as Successful as Obama’s Domestic Policy
Which is to say, it’s a pathetic joke: The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs’ pronouncement today that Libya is a “stalemate” would, I think, have gotten a bit more attention but for the debt debate. We recently passed the four-month anniversary of “Operation Odyssey Dawn,” the U.S.-led air assault on Moammar Qaddafi’s regime. Now, 128 […]
More Honest and Interesting Than Whatever Obama’s Gonna Say on TV
Because I refuse to watch Obama’s phony primetime TV speech, and figure you don’t want to watch it either, here’s a three-minute video press release about a proposed independent conservative film: They’re trying to raise $130,000 to turn that into a movie, so go check ’em out and see what you think. Whatever you do, […]
Spooky Kabuki: More Free Primetime TV for the Summer Bummer Obama Drama
The World’s Least Plausible Reality Show continues: Mr Obama will address the nation tonight at 9pm Eastern Time and U.S. leaders are trying to reassure jittery investors as Wall Street markets closed down and global indexes wobbled today. Jeebus, this guy doesn’t know when to quit, does he? On the bright side, Black Monday was merely […]
Terrorists for Tax Increases
This morning I got a Twitter message from a friend who works at the DC offices of Americans for Tax Reform, informing me that they had been evacuated after a bomb threat. Alex Pappas at The Daily Caller reports: Staffers at Americans for Tax Reform, the anti-tax group run by conservative activist Grover Norquist, evacuated their building […]
Bogus ‘Facts’? Twisted Logic? Raw Hate? Of Course: It’s Democratic Underground!
Next time somebody tries to tell you that the Right is a collection of crazy wingnuts, tell ’em to check out the DUmmies: Compared to the poltroons at DU, the Huffington Post* is a regular collection of rocket scientists. Even the assemblage of cretins at the Daily Kos has been heard to advise the DU, […]
BLACK MONDAY? Obama’s Debt-Ceiling Crisis Strategy Could Sink Wall Street
Let’s be clear: President Obama has orchestrated this unnecessary drama for the specific political purpose of causing a crisis that he — with the willing assistance of the liberal media — hopes to blame on Republicans. Yet while Obama, the Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) are scripting a kabuki dance, economic reality […]
A: Have You Considered Tendering Your Resignation, Sir?
by Smitty (via Memeorandum) “Obama: Can They Say Yes to Anything?” Gerard noted this great typo, figures that the phrase ‘Hope and Change‘ may have engendered a reassignment of meaning as a result of the debt limit negotiations: “I’ve been left at the alter now a couple of times,” Obama said of the talks with […]
