Only the criminal blames the snitch

You're sitting at home watching TV, and you see Charles Manson come to the door.  Of course, you don't answer it, so he reaches back and throws a package through your window. You're hesitant to open the package; after all, it'...

Okay, Make Bain the Poster Child

The Unmentioned Significance of Recent GSA Shenanigans

The wanton waste of taxpayer dollars for folly and fraudulent cronyism profit has been going on for decades.  That won't change much, regardless of who is at the wheel.  Who doesn't remember a time when stories such as the military buying $...

Whitney. Enough!

Does anyone else get upset when they walk by a TV set and see Oprah celebrating another famous person as a hero for getting off drugs? We all know the story.  Celebrities discuss the horrors of drug use and how they made life hell for their fami...

The Contraception Commandment And The Progressive Religion

Romney: Flip-Flopping or Open Minded?

We all want others who don't see things our way to change their minds.  When they do we are pleased.  Those who refuse to change their minds appear stubborn, dogmatic, contentious, and closed to new ideas. Is Romney a flip-flopper?  It...

They Went. I Played Basketball.

Life for a middle-class kid in the suburbs of the SF Bay Area was pretty good, with wonderful memories.  I never bought into the hippie thing.  I thought it was simply an excuse to defy authority and, quite frankly, get laid without strings...

Aren't we all sick of the 'Iowa show?'

I don't know about you, but I am sick of the "Iowa" show.  A lousy 6 electoral votes and they get all this attention. Can you imagine if California or New York were first? Sure, we know CA and NY are lost for the general election, but they have ...

Obama Grabs Credit for Iraq

The Stimulus: Jump Starting a Car with No Engine

Left-wing ideologues like Paul Krugman posing as economists believe that the reason why the Obama stimulus dumped upon us didn't work is because it wasn't big enough.  Krugman points to statistics that show a clear relationship between stimulus ...

Obama And His Band of Cowards

These guys are amazing. They chicken out on everything important and blame the GOP. My wife and I just got back from a vacation. I was hoping to play golf, and she had projects she was interested in tackling. Instead, I took care of business, and she...

Relaxed Standards for OWS Violence

If you want to destroy someone's property, simply organize a left-wing political rally.  Then you can bring your rocks and rebar and smash away without serious consequences.  It appears that the official attitude towards violence and vandal...

Get off Romney's Back

Bad-mouthing Romney is like saying Ronald Reagan was a failure because he didn't colonize China.  Romney is a conservative who will work well with a GOP Congress.  His flipflopedness is both on purpose and irrelevant.  Time to get off ...

Is the POTUS Stirring Up a Revolution?

Obama was hailed as a healing president, promising peace and harmony.  What we have seen, however, is a president distinctively divisive on racial issues, and instigating class warfare.  His actions are a prescription for a violent revoluti...

OWS and the Progressive Fantasy

The proclamations of the Occupy Wall Street crowd ring familiar.  They want top-quality free health care, education for all, and fairness.  They denounce capitalism, wealthy people, personal responsibility, and in effect, reality.  Sou...

Turning the tables on the left's 'racism' charges

The quotation "The lady doth protest too much, methinks." comes from Shakespeare's Hamlet, Act III, scene II. The phrase has come to mean that one can "insist so passionately about something not being true that people suspect the opposite of what one...

Romney and Rubio in 2012

In the September 22 Republican presidential debate, Michele Bachmannn declared it inevitable that Obama would lose to any Republican, and therefore it was time to get a true conservative instead of a moderate.  Bachmann is wrong. Don't get me...

Elizabeth Warren: Eloquent Tunnel Vision

Elizabeth Warren made quite a splash with her recent comments (see article by Lucy Madison from CBS News) in which she laid out a case why wealthy people should be paying more taxes.  As usual, liberal politicians like to play up the much-malign...

Obama's Math: More Fuzz Than a Peach

He's looking more like a bobblehead every time he speaks.  From left to right, nose in the air, all the while talking down to those of us he views as stupid.  Well, we may be stupid, but we certainly can add, subtract, multiply, and divide ...

Mr. Boehner, Here's Your Jobs Bill

Obama has the upper hand in the public debate.  Boehner can get it back fast. Although it isn't by large numbers, a recent Gallup poll shows Americans favor a jobs bill similar to the one proposed by President Obama, probably because Americans g...

Quit Coddling the Rich. Quit Coddling the Poor. Quit Coddling Everybody.

As President Obama said in his recent "Jobs" speech, "Yes, we are rugged individualists. Yes, we are strong and self- reliant. And it has been the drive and initiative of our workers and entrepreneurs that has made this economy the engine and the env...

Stop Calling the Tea Party Extreme. It Isn't.

The left-leaning mainstream media and liberal Democratic politicians continue to refer to the Tea Party as extreme, wacko, and out of touch with the American public.  Clear evidence indicates exactly the opposite. Many of us are getting increasi...

And They Still Haven't Tried KSM

It has been 10 years since one of the most horrific and demonic events in history.  We know who did it -- Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, also known as KSM.  We have had him in custody since March of 2003.  He confessed in March of 2007. ...

Obama's Address Was About Style, Not Substance

Since Obama has nothing new to say, how he says it is everything. Obama's long-awaited jobs plan is, unfortunately, yet another economic plan based on smoke and mirrors.  The hole in Obama's plan is so big Joe Plumber could drive his truck throu...

Obama Leaves the Bases Loaded. Dems Lose.

In what appeared to be a no-lose situation, the Dems sent an amateur to the plate.  Now, with serious damage done to the Democratic Party, they're scratching their heads wondering what happened. Bottom of the ninth.  Republicans are ahead b...

No, the Stimulus didn't work

Democrats Own the Stock Market Crash

The GOP presented many specific opportunities to Dems for a timely budget agreement.  Dems signed none, and presented none of their own.  And you're the loser.  The stock market is in free fall, theoretically because even though a "dea...

Integration and Diversity -- Mutually Exclusive Concepts?

When I attended college in the sixties, the mantra was integration.  MLK and the liberals told us to judge people by the "content of their character, not the color of their skin."  Good advice.  They got it right.Unfortunatel...
