Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
During the campaign, Biden warned that Obama would be tested in his first six months in office. We all assumed that Biden knew about a planned terrorist attack on the US. That could still happen, of course, although I devoutly hope it won’t. At exactly the five month mark, however,
Continue readingThings are not going well for Mr. Obama in Washington. (Please note the studied lack of an honorific in the way I am referring to the man in the White House. I don’t think he worked hard enough to earn it. The things we learn when we listen to our
Continue readingHere’s your matched set for today: Richard Baehr comments on Obama’s allegiance to Islam. Pamela Geller points out that radical Islamists groups that explicitly seek to overthrow America and replace it with a caliphate are staging coming out parties. And to those who feel like saying that we’re being just
Continue readingHere’s the article from an extremely Progressive San Francisco blog. Here’s my distillation: 1. Liberals truly care about freedom, because they protested their hearts out over the illegal U.S. war in Iraq. 2. For all that screaming against the evil U.S. government, American liberals really weren’t risking anything because, unlike
Continue readingAs you know, not only did Obama say he wouldn’t “meddle” in Iran, he said that Mousavi and Ahmadinejad are two peas in a pod, so who cares? James Taranto explains perfectly why Obama is dead wrong: [W]e think it is very telling that the very first point he made
Continue readingMy liberal husband still hasn’t forgiven me for pointing out that the MSM deleted from it’s coverage Obama’s request for poupon at a burger joint, nor can he understand why I (and other conservatives) find the request both telling and amusing. These things matter very deeply to the liberals. Tom
Continue readingTwo nights ago, I had an Obama dream, which probably happened because he’s become omnipresent in our lives. I dreamed that I was staying at a luxury hotel and that, despite the fact that he was president, he was acting as concierge. I remember saying in my dream that, while
Continue readingRonald Reagan, speaking to Evangelicals about the Soviet Union, in 1983: Yes, let us pray for the salvation of all of those who live in that totalitarian darkness — pray they will discover the joy of knowing God. But until they do, let us be aware that while they preach
Continue readingIn one paragraph, Richard Baehr says so much: Voters can be fooled, but they can tell the difference between a friend and a bully. Obama made the decision to bully Israel over settlements, and make it the focus of his Middle East strategy. The events in Iran over the weekend
Continue readingI commented on and graded Obama’s much heralded speech to the Muslim world, so I think it only fair to grade Bibi’s speech, which is directed to much the same audience (plus the western world, too). As I did with Obama’s speech, I’m making me comments in real time, without
Continue readingAs far as blogs go, you heard it here first (or nearly first), but it’s a bigger story than my little blog. Michelle Malkin has the round-up. My only hope is that the MSM will part the curtain long enough to allow the American people to realize just how big
Continue readingThis could be sour grapes or it could be something much more serious. Amusingly, the NAACP hopes the charges are true, even if that means the State and Feds acted illegally: An association of contractors accused Caltrans in a lawsuit Thursday of colluding with the Obama administration to flout California’s
Continue readingRemember the hoo-ha about the Bush administration’s decision to fire a handful of US attorneys (as opposed to the noncontroversial Clinton decision to fire almost all the US attorneys)? Well, Obama’s in a firing mood now, too. I wonder if Republicans will have the cojones to check out whether the
Continue readingConservatives have spent years railing at the liberal propensity to by-pass the legislative process and head straight for the courts. It turns out, though, that there are situations in which liberals prefer to avoid the court all together — and will take legislative action to try to avoid it. Those
Continue readingHitting on many of the same points I did in my analysis of Obama’s Cairo speech, Frank Gaffney makes the compelling argument that, whether Obama is a believing Muslim or just an ideologue, he has aligned himself in significant ways with the Muslim world, and clearly hopes to drag America
