Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Calls Senator Inhofe a ‘Prostitute’ and a ‘Call Girl’ – Will Media Be Outraged?

March 7, 2012 by

0

By Noel Sheppard ~ In the midst of all the media outrage over Rush Limbaugh calling Georgetown University law student and women’s rights activist Sandra Fluke a slut, one would think political figures would shy away from using such words against their opponents, at least in public. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. clearly doesn’t think so […]

A federal court in Bogota, Colombia, sentenced the disgraced former director of Colombia’s Administrative Department of Security (DAS) on Wednesday to 25 years in prison for his involvement in a number of crimes including murder, abuse of power and conspiracy in major crimes. Following a long and all-encompassing investigation, the Supreme […]

Australian Politics – If Not Prime Minister Julia Gillard, Then Who?

September 7, 2011 by

0

By Andrew Bolt Julia Gillard is now the zombie Prime Minister – the walking dead. Her government dropped yesterday to a record low in Newspoll, at just 41 per cent of the preferred vote to the Coalition’s 59. Just a quarter of voters like the job she’s doing, and from that there is no coming […]

Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard Considers An Inquiry That Could Muzzle Her Critics

August 31, 2011 by

2

By Andrew Bolt The threat and the demand: THE Gillard government has a fortnight to decide whether to hold an inquiry into the regulation and ownership of the media after the Greens leader Bob Brown gave notice last week he would seek to establish one. Senator Brown’s motion on Thursday went unnoticed amid the furore […]

Independents Cling Even Harder To Prime Minister Julia Gillard

August 28, 2011 by

2

By Andrew Bolt In Australia, the current Government led by the ALP (Australian Labor Party) is governing only in a minority capacity with the support of one member of The Australian Greens Party and three Independent Members of Parliament. Both sides, in effect, are beholden to each other, and the Independents have the most to […]

Voters Would Divorce Australian Labor Government Over Same-Sex Marriage

August 27, 2011 by

0

By Andrew Bolt Paul Kelly warns Labor against falling for the glib assurances that the public will thank it for backing same-sex marriage: The past year has seen a succession of journalists and celebrities telling Labor as a “no-brainer” to back same-sex marriage. Indeed, a number of state ALP conferences have called for the ALP […]

Name That Party: Blago’s Dem Affiliation Left Out of Seven AP Stories

June 28, 2011 by

By Tom Blumer Earlier today, a grand jury convicted former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, a Democrat, on 17 of 20 counts of corruption. 11 of of the guilty verdicts related to attempts to profit from the “sale” of the U.S. Senate seat Barack Obama vacated when he became president. At USA Today’s On Deadline blog […]

Weiner’s Woes: No Skillz to Pay the Billz

June 20, 2011 by

4

By Michelle Malkin “There is life after Congress for Anthony Weiner,” New York Democratic Rep. Nita Lowey grimly assured reporters on Thursday before his resignation announcement. But Weiner’s life has been nothing but Congress. Nothing but government. Nothing but taxpayer-subsidized self-perpetuation. In other words: the life of a pathetic public leech. Amid vulgar heckling brought […]

Obama will Resign and for Good Reason

June 19, 2011 by

2

By Alan Caruba I always thought it was creepy the way Barack Hussein Obama has repeatedly referred to the likelihood of his being a one-term President. It is as if he knew, even as he campaigned in 2008, that all the loose ends and unanswered questions about his life would eventually disqualify him. It is […]

It’s About Personal Responsibility

June 13, 2011 by

0

By Frank Salvato Weiner-mania: if the story weren’t so infuriating and sad – and such a damning commentary on our society – it would be laughable. Alas, here we stand at a moment in time when a sitting US congressman – a newly married, sitting US congressman – felt it was “okay” to take pictures […]

Why Is Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard Terrified To Meet A Sceptic?

June 6, 2011 by

0

By Andrew Bolt Global warmists are terrified of debate. No warming activist or Labor minister has agreed to come on The Bolt Report to discuss their claims. Almost no global warming scientists here will agree to debate sceptical ones. Global warming prophet Al Gore refuses interviews with more sceptical journalists. ABC warmists lobbied against the […]

Pelosi’s District Scores Big With Obamacare Waivers

May 18, 2011 by

0

By Mike Brownfield When Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said of Obamacare, “[W]e have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it,” apparently she meant that it would include pain and suffering for America’s businesses, except for those fortunate enough to get waivers, including a few high-class restaurants, night clubs […]

Obama Still Channeling His Inner Carter

May 11, 2011 by

0

By James Carafano, PhD Comparing the foreign policies of Presidents Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama has been like comparing apples to, well, apples. Carter tried accommodating America’s enemies. He cut back on defense. He made humility the hallmark of American diplomacy. Sound familiar? It might be too much to argue that the current President’s doctrine […]

Our National Day of Prayer

May 5, 2011 by

1

By Alan Caruba Thursday, May 5, is our National Day of Prayer. Among my many friends few regularly attend a house of prayer, nor even believe in a greater power. I have heard it said that “Courage is fear that has said a prayer” and every time I get a request to say a prayer […]

Osama is All About Obama

May 4, 2011 by

0

By Alan Caruba In the interest of being seen as fair-minded, bipartisan, ecumenical, unbiased, and an all-round decent American, I have been searching my mind for things about America that President Barack Obama likes. He likes its golf courses, basketball, Hawaii, unions, and crowds, large and small that openly adore him. He does not like […]

Maxine Waters: Swamp Queen

April 28, 2011 by

1

By Michelle Malkin Confirmed: “Drain the swamp” is Washington-speak for “Let it fester.” While House ethics watchdogs dither, it’s shady business as usual for ethics scandal-plagued Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters. Last summer, the House Ethics Committee charged the entrenched California congresswoman with three violations related to her wheeling and dealing on behalf of minority-owned OneUnited […]

Obama, The Great Prevaricator

March 26, 2011 by

By Alan Caruba “President Obama told congressional leaders there are no plans to use the U.S. military to assassinate Libyan strongman Muammar Gadhafi — despite the administration’s policy of seeking regime change in the North African country — according to sources familiar with a Friday White House Situation Room briefing.” — March 25, 2011, Politico.com […]

A Man-Made Flood in Queensland, All Right

February 1, 2011 by

0

By Andrew Bolt National hazards consultant Steven Molino wonders how much of the damage in Queensland was caused by its government’s failure to protect flood-prone areas: As far back as 1999, Dingle Smith of the Australian National University illustrated this by comparing NSW and Queensland flood funding figures from 1983 to 1993. Nationally, 85 per […]

A Levy to Fix a Flood of Spending

January 28, 2011 by

0

By Andrew Bolt Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard’s flood levy proves how criminally wasteful Labor has been, and so do her cuts to green schemes. The Prime Minister’s levy will raise $1.8 billion of the more than $5 billion the Government expects to spend to fix flood damage in Queensland and Victoria. And, while Gillard […]

Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard Levies to Find the Money She Wasted

January 27, 2011 by

0

By Andrew Bolt The Prime Minister might in fact have trouble implementing this range of measures. The Levy (a new tax) is just part of the plan. If as she proposes, those other plans are to be implemented, the trouble then arises on the floor of The Senate where Gillard only has control with the […]

This Flood Levy is to save Gillard, not Queensland

January 26, 2011 by

0

By Andrew Bolt Having frittered away billions, Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard comes asking for $3.5 billion more: AUSTRALIANS will pay more tax under a temporary flood recovery levy set to be announced by Prime Minister Julia Gillard in Canberra tomorrow. Ms Gillard and senior ministers, including her deputy and Treasurer Wayne Swan, Infrastructure Minister […]

House Health Care Repeal More Reality TV than Theatre

January 23, 2011 by

0

By Star Parker Democrats who are calling the House’s decisively passed repeal of Obamacare — the so-called ” Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care” act — theater are hallucinating. Perhaps it was theatrical to include in the name of the repeal act “job killing”, though that is what it is. But I prefer melodrama to […]

Brisbane Flood Update – But Never Too Soon for Brown to Blame a Coal Miner for the Floods

January 17, 2011 by

1

By Andrew Bolt This media release from Senator Brown is drawing comment from nearly every media outlet, and none of that comment is praise. In this Post here from Andrew, he links directly to my Post from yesterday on the same subject…..TonyfromOz. Australian Greens Party leader Bob Brown thought it was too soon to (correctly) […]

The Lamest Duck of All

January 5, 2011 by

0

By Burt Prelutsky The question, boys and girls, is: Just how dumb do you have to be in order to be a Republican politician? I actually believed those ignoramuses had learned their lesson after the elections of 2006 and 2008. I was convinced that they’d seen the error of their ways, that cozying up to […]
