Obamarama is at it again: making dumb remarks about a subject he knows nothing about. Although, in one sense, he does: the subject is gas. Unfortunately, the kind of gas that Obama specializes in is not usable in our cars and trucks.
Here’s the Chosen One on how we can save as [...]

Sorry, indeed

Yet another apology for slavery, this time from the House of Representatives. From the WaPo story, the basics:
The House yesterday apologized to black Americans, more than 140 years after slavery was abolished, for the “fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality and inhumanity of slavery and Jim Crow” segregation.
Now I’ll be able to sleep at [...]

Read this column by Rich Lowry. From it, on your knees, in awe, of the coming Obama One World Messiah:
Consider [Obama's] gaffes: The world won’t stand for us driving and eating and air-conditioning our homes as we please. We should worry less about immigrants learning English and more about teaching our kids Spanish. Gun-owning, [...]
Tim Kaine for Veep?
Posted in Politics on July 29, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Virginia, my state, may be about to be provide a Southerner to balance the foreign-sounding Barack Hussein Obama on the Democratic ticket. Gov. Tim Kaine as veep is all the talk today among the mainstream media.
The party line is that Tim Kaine is likable, and, as a Catholic, is, well, Catholic. Which may [...]

Talking about the former Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, one of the more egregious examples of how Africans can’t seem to run a country or set things right when one of their number screws the pooch. Zimbabwe under Mugabe has become the poster child for how not to do things.
Formerly the “breadbasket of Africa,” the [...]
Depends on what “always” and “never” mean

Barack Hussein Obama is, among other things, a liar. He was born and raised a Muslim; lived in a Muslim country and attended Muslim schools. According to Daniel Pipes’ analysis, Obama, having been born to a Muslim father, was a Muslim.
What Obama has said about this are two absolutes: “I’ve always been [...]

I’ve said it before (and, more recently here), Ill say it again: Bobby Jindal for veep.
The only slam that the Dems might make against Jindal is that he is too young and inexperienced to be a heartbeat away from the top. Oh, wait, that’s right – Obama has sooo much more experience [...]
Europe ♥ Obama

Of course they love him. He’s the un-Bush. Also, un-American. To EuroLefties, this is a very good thing.
Obama has wowed them in Old Europe. He’s a rock star; he’s the new JFK. He’s the savior who will deliver the world into a new reign of, well, audaciously hoping for change. [...]

Barack Hussein Obama has some 300 advisors on foreign policy. BHO must really be clueless as to need quite so many, but, with essentially zero relevant experience, hey, someone in the crowd of advisers must know what’s up.
Perhaps so; perhaps not. The Obama Victory Tour continues, with the Great One’s speechifying at a [...]

ABC’s The Note reports on the planned uber-rally by President Candidate Savior in Germany.
There are opportunities to look and sound presidential. There are opportunities to look and sound like an anti-American blowhard. There are opportunities to really, really alienate the millions of Americans who don’t much think anything about Europe [...]

As reported by James Taranto’s Best of the Web, Obama has changed his tune on genocide. From BoTW, quotes from the Anointed One:
“…preventing a potential genocide in Iraq isn’t a good enough reason to keep U.S. forces there.” From that AP report:
“Well, look, if that’s the criteria by which [...]
Even the WaPo has noticed…
Posted in Obama on July 23, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Noticed that Barack Hussein Obama seems to be immune to new information. The WaPo is a reliably liberal voice for the national Democratic agenda. They’re against restrictions on immigration, in favor of abortion on demand, in favor of a top-down, centralized approach to virtually all problems. And, in their “news” [...]

Via The Corner at NRO, this from Barack Hussein Obama on the surge:

The Obama campaign has apparently banned green clothing for his Obamarama World Victory Tour. From Politico:
AMMAN, Jordan—An Obama campaign ban on green clothing during the candidate’s visits to Israel and Jordan has created wide puzzlement among observers of the Middle East.
In a memo to reporters, described as “a few guidelines we sent staff before [...]

Now this is just plain unfair. Comparing Osama to Obama? Over the top.
The picture is satire, but with a minty-fresh hint of truth. Unfair? Yes. Almost as unfair as the New York Times wanting to muzzle John McCain’s free speech because “he wasn’t responding to Senator Obama.” That last [...]
Meet the Grievances

The editors at NRO have Obama neatly pegged: the Grievance King. Or is that Grievance Messiah? From their brief but laser-sharp piece, we learn that Obama has a very thin skin.
His response to valid criticism of his spouse, Mean Michelle, who has been sent out on the hustings to campaign for His [...]

The quotation is from the Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Michael Mullen. The subject is whether we should have a fixed timetable for withdrawal from Iraq, as Barack Hussein Obama insists on.
Obama, he with the Arab middle name, apparently has the Arab vote sewn up: Malignant Maliki, the goombah-looking thug who is [...]

Remember FoB? That’s Friends of Bill Clinton; folks who overtly and covertly helped our lovable ex-smearer of semen on young interns dresses survive his teen age years in the White House.

the height of absurdity

“To say you’re going to get out on a certain schedule – regardless of what the Iraqis do, regardless of what our enemies do, regardless of what is happening on the ground – is the height of absurdity.”

This just about sums about the moral cowardice of Barack Hussein Obama. [...]
The truth hurts?

The New Yorker might be one of media outlets most hospitable to Barack Hussein Obama. And, correspondingly, least hospitable to John McCain.
There’s also the, to some, extreme snarkiness of the New Yorker. In simplest terms, they are nasty and on crack about anything remotely smacking of the United States and middle American values. [...]
The gravity of the situation

Gotta love Calvin. I’d never have thought of blaming gravity, or its absence, as the reason I didn’t do my homework.
Which is why I learned, partly out of fear of punishment, to actually do my homework. Usually. But besides the obvious humor of this Calvin and Hobbes strip, the first thought that [...]

Will the real Obama please stand? Interesting piece by Michael Goodwin by that title, up at the Daily News. Goodwin describes himself as a “centrist Democrat and a hawk on security,” and while he finds the new post-primary Obama an improvement, he’s not convinced.
From the article, the flip-floppiness that is Obama:

The photo of Barack Hussein Obama disrespecting our national anthem was taken September 16, 2007. According to this source, the occasion was a Steak Fry hosted by Iowa Senator Tom Harkin. You may note the two senators to Obama’s left, both at the time candidates for the Democratic nomination.

The mini-language flap that’s arisen around Barack Hussein Obama has sparked some sympathy. Some. Very little, actually. As described here, it’s classic elitist nonsense: look at you poor rubes out there in fly-over country; you can’t speak French.
Oh, the shame! I hang me head in abject sorrow. What [...]

An op-ed piece in the Wall Street Journal reminds us that there is a movement afoot to force a back-door change to the Constitution: the “National Popular Vote” would neuter the Electoral College by requiring each state that adapts it to cast its electoral votes for whoever wins the national popular vote.

Bobby Jindal took office as governor of Louisiana on January 14, 2008. As such, he’s got 178 days more executive experience in government than either Barack Obama or John McCain. More than both combined, actually, as they each have zero such days.
At 36, Gov. Jindal is a mere lad in electoral politics, and [...]

We are a nation of individuals. Our liberty is rooted in the individual; that liberty derives not from government or other men, but from God. As a nation of individuals, tribe, ethnicity, race, and creed should all become secondary to our first loyalty: America.

What follows is a classic example of how right-thinking (meaning left-thinking) elites view us bitter, clingy slobs just trying to get from point A to point B without breaking the bank. And without having to ride in flimsy econoboxes.
