By Michelle Malkin Barack Obama’s new era of civility was over before it began. You wouldn’t know it from reading The New York Times, watching Katie Couric or listening to the Democratic manners police. But America has been overrun by foul-mouthed, fist-clenching wildebeests. Yes, the tea party movement is responsible — for sending these liberal […]
By Star Parker Watching the wave of unrest in the Middle East, there are lessons to consider regarding how we view the world and how we manage our lives here at home. I’d call it getting perspective on what you can control and what you can’t. It should be pretty clear that the upheavals in […]
By John Howard I would call the New York Times my “guilty pleasure” if there were any pleasure in it. But there isn’t. There is, though, plenty of guilt at having been a subscriber for thirty years. I just don’t have the heart to stop my subscription. Call it sentimentality. Call it masochism. But it is a high […]
By C. Austin Burrell Our Congress is pending receipt of legislation that will produce the most egregious and regressive tax ever levied on the American people and our economy. This is coming at a time when no one can afford the escalation of all energy prices such a tax will produce in every area of […]
From the Editors at Family Security Matters. After a contentious session in the House last Friday, the largest tax increase in history – the Waxman-Markey bill – passed 219-11. Touted as a “jobs” bill by its supporters, how many Americans realize that the jobs created will not benefit Americans, but the nations of China and […]
By Paul L. Williams Ph.D. “A man can have sex with animals such as sheep, cows, camels, and so on. However, he should kill the animal after orgasm. He should not sell the meat to the people in the village; however, the selling of meat to people in a neighboring village is permissible.” – Ayatollah […]
James Delingpole. TonyfromOz prefaces ….. What a great line from this English commentator ….. “He’s just a hollow man spouting empty rhetoric.” Watching Obama lose his screen on screen duel with Dick Cheney yesterday I was reminded of some lines from Paradise Lost: “Thus Belial with words clothed in reason’s garb Counselled ignoble ease and […]
David Webb. The comedienne, Janeane Garofalo, recently referred to Tea Party-goers as a “bunch of teabagging rednecks,” adding “this is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up.” Such sweeping condemnation is not only fantastic but of course untrue, demonstrating that when it comes to playing the race card, […]
Jeffrey Imm. What world do you live in? This should be a simple question for anyone to answer – Earth. But some have fallen into using the language of policy wonks that the world actually has multiple “worlds” within it. For example, you continually hear references to “the Muslim world,” including President Obama’s recent comments […]
Brigadier General Greg Zanetti. “If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation then by deflation, the banks and the corporations will grow up around them, will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.” – […]
Roger Aronoff. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder announcing her intentions to hold a hearing on the issue of newspaper consolidation in the San Francisco Bay area, citing anti-trust laws as a potential avenue to do something about this. The hearing would be by the Courts […]
From the team at FSM. James Jay Carfano With almost two dozen attempted attacks thwarted since 9/11 by terrorists either already here or trying to come here to kill Americans it makes no sense to minimize the threat. - James Jay Carafano, Ph.D., is a leading expert in defense affaires, intelligence, military operations and strategy, […]
J.D. Longstreet TonyfromOz prefaces ….. Again, this bank raid from last September is mentioned. We have alluded to it in numerous posts, and the feeling is that there is something in it that is not quite right. It has hardly rated a mention, and yet something as catastrophic as this should have caused people to […]
Melanie Phillips From Egypt, further evidence that the Islamist hatred of the Jews is not caused by Israel’s behavior or even its existence. It’s caused by… hatred of the Jews. Here, Egyptian cleric Muhammad Hussein Ya’qoub raves: If the Jews left Palestine to us, would we start loving them? Of course not. We will never […]
Edward Cline The nation – indeed, the world – is waking up to the idea that ideas have consequences. One idea is that sacrificing is not a life-enhancing option and will lead to misery or death. Another is that the heedless policy of a spendthrift is not a rational course of action. Another is that […]
Satire by Shawn Goodwin President Obama signed the “omnibus” spending bill on Wednesday, a spending bill that contained more earmarks than a library copy of Tropic of Cancer. The bill possessed over 7,000 earmarks, totaling well over $5 billion. That is billion, with a “b.” Obama also issued a “signing statement” with the bill – […]
Michelle Malkin At a flail-and-wail House hearing last month, California Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters melted down in front of big banking CEOs. “Raise your hand! Raise your hand!” she shrieked as she harangued the executives on their business practices and management of federal bailout money. Sneering at the “captains of the universe,” whom she refused […]
Newt Gingrich After spending an astounding $61 million to elect Democrats in the 2008 elections, union bosses are getting their payback this week. Yesterday, so-called “Card Check” legislation was introduced in both the House and the Senate. Card Check strips American workers of the right to a secret ballot and gives the federal government the […]
William Hallowell Ideological Barriers to Change As Americans cope with immense fiscal challenges, Congressional spending continues to spiral out of control. Living out Rahm Emanuel’s tweaked philosophy of never allowing “a serious crisis to go to waste,” Democrats are spending at an enigmatic rate – and some Republicans are following suit. According to The Wall […]
Michelle Malkin Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is the Jennifer Lopez of congressional travel – fickle, demanding and notoriously insensitive to the time, costs and energy needed to accommodate her endless demands. On Tuesday, the indispensable government watchdog Judicial Watch released a trove of public records through the Freedom of Information Act on […]
Margaret Calhoun Hemenway My father-in-law has enjoined the Philip Berg suit, questioning President Barack Hussein Obama’s eligibility to be President, based on principle and patriotism. John Hemenway is a World War II veteran, a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, (class of 1951) and a Rhodes Scholar. He served in the Foreign Service in the […]
Newt Gingrich I’m beginning this week by doing something I don’t usually do: thanking the New York Times. Last week, this was the Times headline over a story about President Obama’s budget: “A Bold Plan Sweeps Away Reagan Ideas” And so I want to thank the New York Times for portraying the Obama budget for […]
Paul Hollrah It is a popular topic of discussion in political circles these days, and as the weeks pass more and more people are asking, “Is Barack Obama really a natural born citizen of the United States? Is he eligible to serve as President, or isn’t he?” If he is, then so be it. We’ll […]
THE KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND WET BAR Satire by Shawn Goodwin Ah, Britannia! You are the heart of the vaunted British Empire, the home of the Magna Carta, and the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. Nations have trembled at the sight of your armed forces and bowed at the writings of your literary giants. The […]
