By Mark Alexander Last fall, Barack Hussein Obama pledged that his administration would carry out a “fundamental transformation of the United States of America.” Today, as we reflect on the first 100 days of the Obama regime’s occupation of the executive branch, with Party allegiance in the legislative branch, it pains me to report that […]
by Turtle After only a day and a half of defense witness testimony, the defense rests its case. The prosecution rested on day 3. Day 4 started the defense’s side of the story, and now it’s only closing arguments and deliberation of the jury. This case may even be over today. Background: Four teenagers in […]
William J Federer’s American Minute. The size of the U.S. doubled APRIL 30, 1803, with the Louisiana Purchase. Nearly a million square miles, at less than three cents an acre – it was the greatest land bargain in history! President Thomas Jefferson commented on it in his Second Inaugural Address, March 4, 1805: “I know […]
Michelle Malkin. Come on, who’s surprised? The White House-engineered photo-op of low-flying Air Force aircraft that caused terror in New York City this week epitomizes the Age of Obama. What better way to mark 100 days in office than with an appalling exercise in pointless taxpayer-funded stagecraft? The superficiality, the unseriousness, the hubris, the obliviousness […]
From The Endive The News Leader of the Known Universe. Wrestling fans were shocked this week when Arlen Specter turned on long-time friend Hulk Hogan by blind-siding him with a steel chair. Hogan and Specter had just lost their fifth consecutive tag team match to the evil Russian Bolsheviks when a frustrated Specter blamed Hogan […]
Nick Loris. TonyfromOz prefaces ….. The image here shows an offshore Wind Power Generating Farm. Here you see 20 huge towers, each with a 3MW nacelle on top. The rated nameplate capacity in total is 60 MW. The power rating operates at 30% efficiency, so, over a full year, it will supply 160,000,000 Kilowatthours (KWH) […]
These are not my figures. They are taken directly from the Gallup Poll results, and mentioned in this article from The Washington Times. This shows the approval rating of Presidents after their first 100 days, and includes data for recent Presidents. Gallup started taking this data in 1969. Ronald Reagan (1981) 67% Jimmy Carter (1977) […]
by Turtle I was unable to attend the trial for day 2 due to one of my children undergoing a medical procedure after a lump was found. She’s sore, but doing well. I think she may go back to school Thursday. Your prayers for her full recovery and that the testing proves nothing sinister are […]
Okay, I can’t turn on the TV or a radio without hearing about how this apocalyptic Swine Flu plague has wiped out the last few Mexicans who haven’t already moved to the U.S. or been killed by drug cartels, and now threatens to anilate aniela annila kill the crap out of us. It goes without saying this disease scares me, as […]
by Turtle The show starts off with a hispanic man getting up in the morning and apparently waiting for his ride to work as a day laborer. Someone appears to have been hit by a car. As the investigators discuss the scene, it becomes apparent that the person was either thrown or jumped out of […]
by Turtle Janet Napolitano. The name sends chills down the backs of freedom-loving Americans across the nation. Her semantics are becoming quite comical. In case you haven’t been keeping up with it, Nappy seems to think that illegal aliens aren’t criminals and that terrorist actions are only “man made disasters.” With that in mind, it’s […]
by Turtle I guess that’s about the same as bowing to the Democrats, which he’s been doing for three decades now. As the brainless twit who dumbed us all down with his “Magic Bullet Theory” in the JFK assassination, it’s a wonder as to how he’s even still in a Senate seat at all, let […]
William J Federer’s American Minute. “Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!” yelled Admiral David Farragut, who had lashed himself atop the mainsail to see above the smoke. His fleet of wooden ships with hulls wrapped in chains, and his four iron clad monitors, were attacking Fort Morgan in Mobile Bay, August 5, 1864. When one […]
By Yid With Lid The Obama administration has done it again. Now we are sorry for something that hasn’t even been proven, man-made climate change. Today Hillary Clinton apologized for the United States at a two day meeting of the world’s major polluters. Just what the heck are these people thinking? Maybe it’s me, but […]
A lot has been said about Arlen Specter switching from the Republicans to the Democrats, and you probably think that there’s not much I can add. After all, I’m from Australia, so what would I know about anything like this. However, before you brush off my comments, consider this. Arlen was a Democrat in his […]
Nick Loris. Republicans and Democrats alike are voicing their concerns over the Clean Energy and Security Act that includes a renewable portfolio standard, federal spending for clean energy technology, and above all else, a cap-and-tax program that would attempt to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Introduced by Chairman Henry Waxman (D–CA) of the House Energy and […]
Part of the Obama Defense cutbacks includes the closing of the F 22 Raptor program. Now you may think that cutting back on really expensive programs like this may not mean much in the overall scheme of things, but consider this. A lot has been said about the F 22 Raptor, and most of it […]
By Pat at DBKP. First new navy ships, then the F-22. Now another program dies. The Air Force was in the process of finally upgrading its long-range heavy bomber, the B-52 with a new platform. Dubbed the New Generation Bomber (NGB), the aircraft was to be a subsonic and stealthy, incorporating many features developed for […]
William J Federer’s American Minute. Leading the charge at the Battle of Trenton, a musket ball struck his shoulder, hitting an artery. He recovered and continued to fight for General Washington, becoming friends with French officer Lafayette. His name was James Monroe, born APRIL 28, 1758. After the Revolution, James Monroe studied law under Thomas […]
ONE VICTIM, TWO PUPPETS, AND THE PUPPET MASTER. From left to right. Rep. John Dingell (D-MI), Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CAL), Rep. Ed Markey (D-MAS), House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CAL). So, then, what’s the story here? Yesterday I posted this 7 second video of John Dingell telling everybody that Carbon Cap and Trade was nothing but […]
Alan Caruba. The end of the world has always been a popular theme for various religions and for doomsayers in general. The Mayan calendar identifies December 12, 2012 as the end of the world. In the second century B.C., the Jewish cult, the Essenes, framed it as a battle between good and evil, and the […]
I want you to watch this really scary video, and I want you to watch it very closely. It’s a promotion for NBC’s four part Documentary, that started on Sunday night. The Documentary is titled ‘Future Earth: Journey To The End Of The World.’ It tells us that the North Polar Arctic Ice Mass will […]
Jeff Poor. NBC Universal and its networks have been criticized for the global warming alarmism it parades on a regular basis. However, now the criticism is coming from its own affiliates. Prior to its April 26 airing on MSNBC, shows on NBC had been promoting the first part of the climate special “Future Earth” – […]
Neither you nor I will ever be able to own a house like either of these. However, it does provide us with a startling example of environmental friendliness that may raise your eyebrows. Keep in mind, the average size for a family home in the U.S. is around 2300 square feet. This image shows a […]
