#ObamaCare: The Train Wreck You Know

by Smitty The most stunning thing about #ObamaCare is not that it's the most expensive train wreck imaginable, short of full-on war. Rather, + — Smitty #GoCruz (@smitty_one_each) September 26, 2013 what fascinates me about #ObamaCare is that these rodeo clowns would expect people to support their follow-on volcanic cockup, Single Prayer — Smitty #GoCruz […]

Ted Cruz Goes All Night; Vendors of Conventional Wisdom Say This Is Bad

Readers may have noticed that I have been ignoring the ObamaCare “Don’t Fund It” dramatics, along with the “government shutdown” threat and the punditry gabfest that have accompanied it. Depending on who you listen to, either Ted Cruz is the future of the Republican Party or else Ted Cruz is the harbinger of the final […]

‘Your Behavior Is Deviant,’ Jewish Voter Tells Disgraced Anthony Weiner

The Yiddish phrase a shanda fur die goyim comes to mind in watching this yamulke-wearing Jewish man confront nationally famous pervert Anthony Weiner at a deli in Brooklyn: To disgrace the tribe, to bring shame on Israel, is not acceptable: “You talk to God and work out your problems, but stay out of the public […]

Is Obama Pivoting From Jobs To Syria To ObamaCare Like A Rodeo Clown Ballerina?

by Smitty I guess if Syria isn’t proving enough of a distraction, or the IRS scandal, or the Benghazi scandal, then #OccupyResoluteDesk is just going to have to hit the road and whack the people with his rhetorical bludgeon to keep them from noticing the debt ceiling negotiations (emphasis mine): The White House is mapping […]

VIDEO: @SenTedCruz Is A Breath Of Fresh, Post-Obama Air

by Smitty What an awesome American: Here’s the link to which he alludes: “Don’t Fund It” I mostly don’t care about who the GOP nominates in 2016, as long as they have Cruz’s good humor, enthusiasm, and capacity to make a 45 minute speech seem a brief word. What a genius. via Breitbart
