Obama’s Foreign Policy: America Could Lose a War That We’re Not Even Fighting

Ace of Spades describes the situation that St. Hopey has maneuvered us into with the Libyan rebels: Now, if Obama has in fact arrived far too late and backed a losing cause, he’s going to have to face a serious dilemma. 1. “Americanize” the war and win what the indigenous forces cannot. 2. Allow the rebels […]

Obama Sends CIA Into Libya Ground Operations; Andrew Sullivan Stunned

New York Times: The Central Intelligence Agency has inserted clandestine operatives into Libya to gather intelligence for military airstrikes and contact rebels battling Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi’s forces, according to American officials. And don’t you know it’s just breaking Sully’s poor little heart? I’m still absorbing this news and don’t want to vent immediately, because there […]

New Motherf–g Tone, Libya War Edition

“I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you’re not patriotic. We should stand up and say, we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration.” — Hillary Clinton, April 2003 “Republicans are attacking the Commander-in-Chief during […]

In Case You Missed It: Democrats Waving White Flag on Taking Back House in 2012

Thanks to Moe Lane for pointing this out. In the immediate aftermath of the mid-term GOP tsunami, Democrats were boasting about how many of the Republican freshmen they were targeting for 2012.

Homo Bureaucratus: A Goal Set Is Essentially A Goal Achieved

by Smitty Via SOL/PuffHO: Seeking to show the public he understands the burden of rising gas prices, President Barack Obama set an ambitious goal of reducing U.S. oil imports by one-third by 2025, and vowed to break through the political gridlock that has stymied similar initiatives for decades. So, yeah, Jimmy C. made the DoE, […]

Random Freaking Adults (Again)

From time to time, I find myself obliged to give this little lecture. I get tired of repeating myself, so listen up: LEARN TO READ POLL DATA PROPERLY OR STOP TELLING ME ABOUT POLLS Every two years from 1998 through 2006 (five consecutive elections), my job at The Washington Times required me to compile a weekly […]

Chuck You, Schumer

Jay Homnick of The American Spectator contemplates the shamelessly sleazy senior senator from New York: By a weird quirk of fate, I was present as a sixteen-year-old boy at a local meeting of well-meaning Jews who were gulled into making him State Senator for the neighborhood where I grew up, in Brooklyn, New York. The […]

Libya: Serious or Not?

One of the reasons I’m having trouble taking the war in Libya seriously is that President Obama keeps treating it like another opportunity for political posturing. He gives his big nationally televised primetime speech on Monday and is off to wine and dine $30,000-a-plate donors on Tuesday while Vice President Joe Biden vacations in Aspen. Wait, […]
