Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Yup. Yahoo felt compelled to help Obama out by fact-checking a Saturday Night Life sketch that noted Obama’s inability to carry through any legislative agenda. First, here’s the SNL sketch: I just have to fisk the Yahoo story, because it’s insanely stupid: This weekend “Saturday Night Live” opened with Fred

Continue readingI found this news snippet interesting, beyond the fact that Obama, the missing and passive Commander in Chief, is at odds with his general (emphasis mine): According to sources close to the administration, Gen McChrystal shocked and angered presidential advisers with the bluntness of a speech given in London last

Continue readingThe Breitbarth site headlines the following video as follows: SHOCK DISCOVERY: COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS PRAY TO PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA With my pre-Obama mindset, I promptly inverted the language and read it as a normal sentence: SHOCK DISCOVERY: COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS PRAY TO ELECT PRESIDENT OBAMA How naive I was. This political activism group,

When I sign my kids up for Chorus or Girl Scouts or soccer, the organization asks me for permission to use my children’s photos on line or in other publicity material. Obama’s State Department, however, didn’t think that far
Continue readingI always like the way Bret Stephens thinks, but I’ve seldom even noticed how he writes. He’s a great writer — clear and concise — but he’s never struck me as a particular luminous writer. I think he must have been inspired when he wrote about the rebirth of the

Continue readingWhen Bush was in Iraq, the war in Afghanistan was the good war and Iraq was Vietnam. Now that Bush is gone, and Iraq is holding stable (for the time being at least), the liberals can give over their pretense about the possibility of a good war and, instead, given
Continue readingObama lies. He does not merely prevaricate, waffle, beg the question, evade, mince words or engage in any other delicate dodge around the truth. When it comes to the health care bill he is trying to sell American, he and out and lies. He tries to sell us big, fat,
Continue readingIs Obama telling a true story or not? I don’t know and with Obama’s credibility gap, it’s impossible to tell. It doesn’t matter, though. What does matter is that, by relaying this anecdote, Obama is keeping alive the Obama/Hitler analogy: President Obama at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation dinner last

There was, of course, this picture: Others understood it too: His identity couldn’t be more clear: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74_Vhqwz-lo[/youtube] Yes, it’s Superman, strange visitor from another planet, with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men! Superman, who can change

(And no, it’s not Photoshopped. Here are the originals, from the State Department’s own album.) UPDATE: Welcome, Wizbang
