By Alan Caruba ~ “If the people cannot trust their government to do the job for which it exists – to protect them and to promote their common welfare – all else is lost.” – Barack Obama, August 28, 2006 I am trying to think of a time when the federal government was distrusted more. […]
By Amy Payne ~ The Obama Administration has a few problems. From Benghazi to the IRS to the phone records of journalists and everyday Americans, it’s not difficult to call up a scandal with investigations pending in Washington. So immigration reform makes for a nice distraction. In his weekly address on Saturday, President Obama called […]
By Alan Caruba ~ How is it that, time and again, the most powerful man on the planet doesn’t seem to have a clue what is happening in his own government? Famed for never accepting blame for anything, the more I see President Obama these days, the more I am reminded of Sergeant Hans Schultz […]
By Noel Sheppard Barbara Walters on Friday allowed Barack and Michelle Obama advance the myth that presidents always lose Congress during midterm elections. This not surprisingly happened during a special “20/20″ interview with the first family at the White House. BARBARA WALTERS, HOST: Your husband has said that you are his chief advisor. So what […]
By Herbert London Whatever one thinks about the increasingly partisan politics in the United States, there are, or should be, limits to indecency. However, in my opinion, President Barack Obama has abandoned any semblance of decency in his desperate bid to help Democrats maintain their control of Congress. Recently, in an attempt to appeal to […]
By Michelle Malkin Energy czar Carol Browner needs to go the way of disgraced green jobs czar Van Jones: under the bus and stripped of her unbridled power to destroy jobs and lives in the name of saving the planet. ASAP. One of the Beltway’s most influential, entrenched and unaccountable left-wing radicals, Browner has now […]
By Noel Sheppard Listen very closely to what is being said here. Bill press says that with just his stimulus alone, President Obama created 3.2 Billion jobs. Let me see now, the Stimulus package alone created a job for half the population of Planet Earth…..TonyfromOz. Bill Press this weekend said Barack Obama has created more […]
By Jim Kouri, CPP. “Besides the news media’s overall silence on illegal immigrants being terrorized, robbed and killed by Mexican authorities, the Obama Administration and US lawmakers are equally silent.” If the news media were truly unbiased in their reportage of Mexican illegal immigration and told the whole story, Americans would be shocked at the […]
By Alan Caruba I felt like this back in the days when the Watergate scandal slowly, painfully unraveled, revealing the most appalling stupidity and criminality emanating from the Oval Office. From the night when the burglars were arrested in the Democrat Committee headquarters on June 17, 1972 to the day Nixon resigned on August 9, […]
By Harrison H. Schmitt. President Obama’s Administration and its supportive media repeatedly say our 1970 Apollo 13 experience is analogous to the effort to contain and cap the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Not hardly! The rescue of Astronauts Jim Lovell, Fred Haise and Jack Swigert, after an oxygen tank explosion […]
By Nancy Morgan As Congress labored furiously to ensure that women have equal access to federal bathrooms, insurgents in Afghanistan this month launched a series of bold strikes on U.S. and NATO bases in Afghanistan. The Potty Parity Act is proceeding apace. The Obama administration response to the upsurge in violence in Afghanistan? It launched […]
By Alan Caruba Is it too much to expect the Attorney General of the United States, the Secretary of Homeland Security, and the President to have actually read the law that the State of Arizona passed regarding illegal aliens? Is it too much to expect the President not to use that law—-the same as a […]
By Alan Caruba We have an unemployment rate in America that rivals that of the 1930s Great Depression, high foreclosure rates on homes, and credit card defaults are reaching new levels, but we are still being told that America is “in recovery.” The longer I watch the members of the Obama administration and the President […]
By Alan Caruba In no particular order, here are ten myths that will affect U.S. domestic and international policy in the year ahead. 1. Myth: Global warming is real. It was never real except for the natural warming cycle that occurred from 1850 to 1998 when the Earth began another natural cycle, when it began […]

You just gotta love this new Administration. EPIC FAIL NUMBER 1 I’ve commented on the Democrat Administration’s ‘Do as I say, not as I do’ attitudes on a few occasions, and one thing that makes me ‘mad as hell and I’m not going to take any more‘ is the fiasco over the Executive jets. BACKGROUND. […]
By Nancy Morgan The elected representatives of ‘we the people’ were hard at work last week on our behalf. The new Obama administration churned out proposals and legislation on a variety of fronts including the environment, the economy, and the (former) war on terror. In response to the Federal Reserve’s report of an increasingly gloomy […]
Alan Caruba. I have this theory that every so often governments go insane. Usually they have someone who is already demented heading up the government, but it takes a majority of the elected body to enact crazy laws and it takes the government apparatchiks to engineer the systemic failures, the wars, and the crazed rush […]
Michelle Malkin. Sunlight is for suckers. The New York Post reported on Tuesday that the White House will not release the $328,835 snapshots taken of the president’s Boeing VC-25A that buzzed lower Manhattan. The entire world has seen news and amateur photos and videos of the incident, but if President Obama has his way, taxpayers […]
The Obama Administration is in the process of passing a Bill that will make Carbon Dioxide (CO2) a dangerous pollutant. To that end I’m going to post a series of posts just for today on just that thing. This post is a ‘Sticky’ just for today and will be the first post you see when […]
Ken Salazar, Secretary of the Interior, please read this. I wasn’t going to comment on this because over the last 14 months I have covered this in quite some depth, but after some thought, I decided to actually construct a post. I did this for the sole reason that these people appointed as Secretaries of […]
