Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I 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,
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 readingI think the world has sized Obama up and concluded that he’s weak, very weak. The Olympics are a good example of this. One theory has it that Chicago is in, and that the price for that is Obama’s appearance before the Olympic Committee. In other words, Obama got bossed
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
Continue readingAfter talking about a guest on NPR who explained that “personal responsibility” is racist code for hostility to blacks (because they can’t be responsible?), Mark Steyn states the obvious about the whole “criticizing Obama is racist” theme: “Code language” is code language for “total bollocks.” “Code word” is a code
Continue readingOne of the things I’ve been meaning to tell all of you about for ages is the weekly National Journal poll that asks bloggers from the Left and the Right to comment on current affairs. I know about it because I’m a participant. My views, therefore, won’t surprise you. What’s

Barack Hussein Obama He said that all must lend a hand [?] To make this country strong again Mmm, mmm, mm! Barack Hussein
Continue readingWhen it comes to Obama’s speech before the UN, Brett Schaefer and Nile Gardiner are both kind enough to attribute to naivete what I’m increasingly sure is a malignant combination of anti-American feeling and antisemitism. In the same vein, Paul, at PowerLine, a blogger who has tried to be level-headed
Continue readingJoe Wilson may have been reprimanded, and he may have been rude, but the man was right. Obama lies. This time, it’s not about illegal aliens, but about seniors and their Medicare. Rule of thumb for Obama: Don’t believe anything he says.

Bush’s critics claimed Iraq was the bad war and Afghanistan the good war. So Obama immediately stated that he’d focus on Afghanistan. Obama, though, true Leftist that he is, and with
