He Has Got To Go

This morning I pulled together some samples of failed Obama Math from the last three years. I need to go back over and update it with this...
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Friday that President Obama’s 2013 budget will hurt the economy in the long term, arguing the larger deficits it would produce would reduce [...]

Heart Failure…

The above picture is "A Tribute To Breitbart, In His Own Words" made up of Andrew's quotes at the BlogCon (via AoSHQ) I see Val has already grabbed it for his FaceBook profile picture.
(Breitbart) — The Los Angeles County coroner’s office has ruled that conservative blogger and commentator Andrew Breitbart died of heart failure stemming [...]

Fudgy Pop-Off: Bob Beckel’s “Oh Fuuuudge!” Moment on Live TV

"Only I didn't say "Fudge." I said THE word, the big one, the queen-mother of dirty words, the "F-dash-dash-dash" word! It was all over - I was dead. What would it be? The guillotine? Hanging? The chair? The rack? The Chinese water torture? Hmmph. Mere child's play compared to what surely awaited me."
Just bite [...]

“We Should Never Have Believed Them” … Well, Yeah.

I guess some people actually need to be hit by the meteor in order to believe it's actually coming...
Stanford Prof. Joel Brinkley, who also worked for the NY Times at one time, is apparently one of those people who now opines, "Islamists in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia not democratic".
Ever since Islamists took office in Tunisia, Libya [...]

For Your Consideration…

I happened to watch this live online this evening. It was an hour long show, but "The Blaze" only has a bit of the beginning (go to the link) and the end of the program up as videos (I've posted the end, warnings). The individual stories were fascinating and frightening, as many here already know [...]

Dueling American Dreams: Which Do You Believe In?

U.S. Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis ...

Or Sen. Marco Rubio?

Which speaks to you? Because, contrary to what Sec. Hilda Solis believes or wants, her goals really cannot even begin to be considered as plausible or possible, even in a limited manner, without Sen. Rubio's goals.
"The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of [...]

Tell Me Again Who Has A “War On Women”? – UPDATED

We all remember the nasty and filthy attacks hurled at 2008 Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin (and continue to this day). Here was a feminist's dream ... a woman who had it all. Family. Career(s). Even a somewhat "stay-at-home-Dad/Husband", rather a partnership where he was in full support of her political career. Yet, the irrational [...]

NBC’s Implausible and Impossible “Mistake”

A follow-up to a previous post.
PJTV illustrates the unlikelihood of NBC's assertion that the racial-editing of the George Zimmerman 911 call was an accident or a "mistake".

Breitbart's John Nolte reminds everyone this makes at least three times NBC/MSNBC has been caught editing to fit their race-hustling agenda in the last three years ... and that [...]

“I’ll Be Back Faster Than You Can Say Furious”

James O’Keefe pretty much PWNs the DOJ's AG Eric Holder...

So, what do you do if you are the AG of the nation's DOJ and have been fighting with (all the way to the United Nations) and blocking individual states "voter ID" laws and refusing to recognize such laws are needed ... and some upstart, troublemaking [...]

Adaptation…

I have been saying the same thing for the last few years (emphasis mine)...
The Associated Press describes itself as “the essential global news network.”
It is indeed essential — to Barack Obama, and for the next seven months, his reelection campaign. Recent management actions and “news” coverage at the AP confirm that it is no longer [...]

The Stein and Steyn Tag Team Against Obama

Both Ben Stein and Mark Steyn take on Obama's recent monumental gaffes. Both pieces are great reads in full.
Ben Stein:
1. The President supposedly went to Harvard Law School, graduated from same, was Law Review President of the Harvard Law Review at Harvard Law School. Then he supposedly taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago. [...]

America’s Terrorist is Upset at “Uniformed Military” Getting Seated First on Planes

Bill Ayers and wife Bernadine Dohrn dropped in on the "Occupy" gathering the other day to show their support. First Dohrn expresses how "we" (as in she and Bill and "Occupy") do not want a nationally secure future here in the USA. They just want lots and lots of public (see: socialist) this and [...]

Constitutions vs Coups

We are constantly reminded Obama is experienced in U.S. Constitutional law as a former Harvard Law professor. Yet, is it Obama's ignorance of the U.S. Constitution, or blatant defiance of it that drives his contrary governing while sitting in the Oval Office after swearing an oath to uphold and protect said Constitution? Jame Toranto of [...]

Electile Dysfunction … When The Unicorn Horn Goes Limp

As I replied to the Peggy Noonan commentary link Jim Treacher posted on his Face Book status I realized my multiple comments were pretty much my own commentary in progress, so I went with it...
As we approach the most important election of this nation's history those that praised Obama in 2008, some that grace our [...]

Want To Hear What an ObamaCare “Death Panel” Might Sound Like?

Tim Graham @ Newsbusters points out...
Brent Baker told me I only found half the story in Newsweek’s coverage of Dick Cheney’s heart transplant. Posted in the middle of the Kent Sepkowitz hit piece was Monday’s edition of their daily NewsBeast in-house video. In the first seconds, the “highlight” was Newsweek/Daily Beast assignment editor Allison Yarrow [...]

Go Figure: A Tale of Three Budgets

I sat down at the computer this morning with my cup of coffee and logged onto Face Book. Right smack at the top of my updated news feed homepage was Val's morning status post referencing this AP headline (which stands as of this posting, much to my surprise):
"GOP-run House easily rejects Obama budget".
Really? [...]

He wasn't done...

HotAir has more.
I have a round-up @ CW of some of the more interesting observations on the last two days of hearings on ObamaCare at the SCOTUS.
Could the SCOTUS be the Death Panel on ObamaCare?

Prayers…

Former Vice President Dick Cheney has had a heart transplant today...
Former GOP Vice President Dick Cheney is recovering from heart transplant surgery at Inova Fairfax Hospital in Northern Virginia, a spokeswoman said Saturday evening.
In 2010, Cheney had a left ventricular assist device implanted for treatment of end-stage heart failure. The former vice president has been [...]
