Colleen Kelley and the IRS targeting the Tea Party

May 20th, 2013 | No Comments

From Coincidence of the Day: President Barack Obama met with the President of the National Treasury Employees Union Colleen Kelley, on March 31, 2010. The NTEU is “the 150,000 member union that represents IRS employees along with 30 other separate government agencies.” The Inspector General’s report, blandly titled “Inappropriate Criteria Were Used to Identify Tax-Exempt [...]

Dan Pfeiffer thinks Republicans should apologize for Susan Rice’s lies

May 19th, 2013 | No Comments

This is just nuts: White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said Sunday Republicans owe Susan  Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, an apology for alleging she  played a part in formulating the White House’s response to the attacks in  Benghazi, Libya, last year that killed four Americans. Pfeiffer said on ABC’s “This Week” [...]

The problem with liberal arts universities these days

February 15th, 2013 | No Comments

Is summed up perfectly in this short five minute video.  I chose to use Fox News video feed for a very specific reason: Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com The flap is surrounding West Liberty University.  Particularly, a visiting professor named Stephanie Wolfe teaching political science.  The first problem is [...]

That strange nagging credibility problem

February 4th, 2013 | 1 Comment

Nothing Obama does seems to go without some element of confusion, crossed signals, or flat out apparent “misinformation”.  This week is no different.   On August 4, 2012, Reuters ran a LONG description of Obama’s birthday events.  Down to the fact that no details would be given of what he and Mrs. Obama planned to do [...]

That Hopey Changey thing: Eliminating filibusters

January 24th, 2013 | No Comments

Within one day after President Obama was sworn in for his second term, Harry Reid was putting in motion the vote to eliminate most filibusters. Here is the list of the Senators that think this is such a good idea they chose to co-sponsor it: Sen Baldwin, Tammy [WI] – 1/22/2013 Sen Begich, Mark [AK] [...]

Millionaire Freshmen Make Congress Even Wealthier

January 16th, 2013 | No Comments

Gotta love the usual irony of the average idiot voter here.  Following Obama’s cue to eat the rich and take everything they ever had, voters elected a richer group of Congressmen than they “threw out”. Ninety-four new senators and House members joined the 113th Congress. But if voters felt the last group of lawmakers was [...]

Roseanne Barr keeping it classy

July 26th, 2012 | No Comments

Yeah, I know, Roseanne Barr has never been kept to a classy standard.  But, she just seems to always find very easy ways to lower the bar.  Today’s case in point: “anyone who eats S–t Fil-A deserves to get the cancer that is sure to  come from eating antibiotic filled tortured chickens 4Christ”.

Obama paid a lower tax rate than his secretary

April 14th, 2012 | No Comments

All we’ve heard since “change” was chosen in 2008 was how the rich need to pay their fair share.  The perfect example would be to pass the “Buffett Rule” so that really rich guys would pay the same effective tax rate as the lower income peeps. Well guess who’s paying less than his secretary? Give [...]

Vanderbilt’s All-Comer’s Policy?

March 30th, 2012 | No Comments

Much is being made of Vanderbilt Catholic’s decision to not sign Vanderbilt University’s new Non-Discrimination policy.  Basically, it states: Registered student organizations must be open to all students as members and must permit all members in good standing to seek leadership posts. They then go to great lengths to assure everyone that gender discrimination is OK. Everything [...]

All about having sex, with that woman.

December 5th, 2011 | No Comments

Positively Republican puts it well: The guy accused of extra-marital affairs (and vehemently denies the accusations) drops out to endorse the guy who admits to extra-marital affairs. People immediately jumped all over Cain due to his issues with other women.  No one really wants to think about Newt and other women.  But it all goes [...]
