Rachel Maddow and the Politics of Stupid

Why hasn’t the American public completely repudiated the policies of the Obama administration? At a time when the unemployment rate has been hovering near 10 percent for nearly a year, Obama’s job approval numbers are very near dead even, and Republicans are just barely leading on the generic ballot. Why isn’t the administration’s abject failure on economic issues more […]

No Valid Criticism Is Possible

Ace of Spades noticed this convenient rationalization: During the interview Wednesday, when confronted with the anxiety that some Israelis feel toward him, Obama said that “some of it may just be the fact that my middle name is Hussein, and that creates suspicion.” Maybe that also explains why 55% of voters say Obama is a socialist. […]

D Is For Democrat

by Smitty (via iOwnTheWorld) GradeGov warns of the lame duck session: Depending on the results of the election, it would seem that McConnell may have the mandate to just announce a standing filibuster.

Does This Work As A Metaphor For This Congress And Administration?

Whether or not, as my title implies, he’s being groomed […]

Steady Development In The Virginia Lawsuit To Declare ObamaCare
Both An Exercise In Foolishness And Un-Constitutional, But Mostly Un-Constitutional

by Smitty (h/t Bill Dupray @ Liberty Pundits Bill Dupray introduces the jurisprudence upon which much could hinge: Judge Henry Hudson, a Bush appointee and former U.S. Attorney in the high-profile ‘Rocket Docket’ in the Eastern District of Virginia is a very solid judge.
