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 […]

It appears that House Speaker John Boehner has found his spine and isn’t going to be bullied into raising taxes, and this has driven the president into paroxyms […]

The Terrible Legislative Catastrophe No One Will Remember in November 2012

For weeks we’ve endured non-stop sturm und drang about the debt-ceiling crisis, and the tightrope negotations between President Obama and Republican leaders in Congress: President Obama and House Speaker John A. Boehner rushed Thursday to strike agreement on a far-reaching plan to reduce the national debt but faced a revolt from Democrats furious that the […]

Jim Moran: Clownish Buffoon, Or Buffoonish Clown?

by Smitty (hat tip: BlogProf) Ol’ “Gentleman” Jim Moran just does Northern Virginia Proud: I suppose that, if you hold a condescending, equestrian viewpoint, and taxpayers are a flock of sheep to be shorn in support of your Vision of Progress, then Moran’s viewpoint may seem sensible. Moran’s point seems to be that if you’ve […]

Pregnancy Is Not a Disease and Contraception Is Not ‘Health Care’

Why, therefore, does Obama want to make insurance coverage for birth control mandatory? Virtually all health insurance plans could soon be required to offer female patients free coverage of prescription birth control, breast-pump rentals, counseling for domestic violence, and annual wellness exams and HIV tests as a result of recommendations released Tuesday by an independent […]
