The State of Obama Address

Friday, January 29th, 2010

President Barack Obama delivered his State of the Union address Wednesday night in typical campaign mode devoid of much detail while still blaming former President George W. Bush and Republicans for the nation’s ills and the lack of progress moving the economy toward real recovery. When asked yesterday if he would listen to the speech, Fred Thompson retorted how else would we know what Bush did wrong. After being President for a year now and coming to national prominence two years prior as a presidential candidate Barack Obama continues to deny his associations, acknowledge his shortcomings, or pursue the wishes of the American people while insisting he is misunderstood or victim to the malicious intent of the uncooperative opposition. The only thing we learn from the State of the Union Address is that the state of Obama hasn’t change one bit. (more…)

Anita MonCrief Fights Progressive Subversion

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Anita MonCrief, like so many others in urban America, was drawn to ACORN’s promise of bringing a better life to the disadvantaged in low income minority communities across the nation. But unlike most who join the ranks of ACORN, Anita attained recognition from the faculty at the University of Alabama where she graduated with an award for academic excellence. Her subsequent experience, before joining ACORN included interning as a legislative assistant with the American Bar Association Central European and Eurasian Law Initiative and as an election observer with the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. ACORN saw the opportunity to exploit experience that would require access to priority election agendas. What they didn’t see was Anita’s strong moral compass and the courage to back her convictions.

Van Jones: Solutions or Symptoms?

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

Van Jones received raves from Chicago lawyer Valerie Jerrett where she spoke at an August 16th Netroots meeting stating:

“Oooh. Van Jones, alright! So, Van Jones. We were so delighted to be able to recruit him into the White House. We were watching him, uh, really, he’s not that old, for as long as he’s been active out in Oakland. And all the creative ideas he has. And so now, we have captured that. And we have all that energy in the White House.”

Rove Attack Will Expose Corrupt Obama Justice Department

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009

While Attorney General Eric Holder collects evidence to make a case against former Bush Administration officials over the firing of 9 Federal prosecutors in 2007, public trust of the Obama Administration is collapsing as evidenced by wide spread protests in townhall meetings against congressional supporters trying to explain their support of pending health care reform legislation. To counter the public outcry, progressives have been summoning the paid thugs from the SEIU and ACORN. Further angering earnest citizens concerned, not only with the government health care proposal, but the progressive movements threat to liberties, the facts behind some of the firings would only incite concerned citizens all the more.

Tyranny on Independence Day

Saturday, July 4th, 2009

This Independence Day marks the 233rd anniversary of the American Declaration of Independence. But it also marks a year in which the liberty of individual citizens will be diminished to an extent unimaginable only a year ago. Only time tell how long we will tolerate the transgressions that progressives have set in motion with policies that take control of industry, banking, health care and energy watching the administration distribute the spoils as political patronage. At the same time, those who threaten our liberties will receive preferential treatment from the justice department while those represent a threat to the administration will be attacked. The vision that is unfolding comes from the mind of a community organizer not a student of The Constitution, the individual liberties expressed in the Declaration of Independence or the Bill of Rights.

Tweets From Tehran Streets

Sunday, June 14th, 2009

The streets of Tehran are in chaos following Friday’s highly charged elections that brought out 85% of eligible voters. The government of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad rushed to release the results Saturday showing a landslide victory that stunned supporters of the primary opposition candidate Hossein Mousavi. In what most anticipated would be a close election, some believing Mousavi would emerge victorious, the governments announcement that Ahmadinejad received 62.6% of the vote to Mousavi’s 33.75 was hardly believable.

Grand Theft UAW: Chrysler & GM Bankruptcies

Friday, May 29th, 2009

“He’s hopeful the government will look for additional authority to deal with the short-term liquidity crisis … and get onto a program and a plan that would ensure that the auto industry can … continue as … independent companies …”

Obama’s 98th Day

Monday, April 27th, 2009

The First Hundred Days is an arbitrary benchmark political commentators have used to judge the early success of new administrations since the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. You can bet that columnists from the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post along with other liberal print publications and the television news divisions at NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC and CNN have all prepared carefully crafted presentations exclaiming the accomplishments of the chosen one. Today’s events, however, will make “brilliance” a hard sell on this 98th day, promising the 99th, the eve of the event, will be filled with questions of the President’s incompetance and deception.

Reign of Ignorance at MSNBC - Garofolo on Olberman

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Reacting to the widespread protests over government budgetary policy, billed as “Tea Parties” and held on “Tax Day” April 15, Janeane Garofalo, a sometimes actress, liberal radio host, and truly clueless political commentator, blasted the protesters on Keith Olberman’s “Countdown” on MSNBC referring to the protesters as

“…a bunch of tea bagging rednecks… this is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up.”

Vicious Congress Slams AIG Angel to Hide Incompetence

Sunday, March 22nd, 2009

AIG CEO Edward Liddy took on the ills of the insurance giant with a sense of public service not seen since titans of industry answered the same call during the great depression. His compensation for this task: $1 per year. None the less, the Congress needed a scapegoat to avoid scrutiny from passing a Stimulus Package that included a clause protecting those bonus payments paid by AIG that prompted the public outrage and these congressional hearings. While none of the congressmen grilling Liddy bothered to read the mammoth $787 billion stimulus bill before voting to pass it, they were more than happy to turn the public’s outrage over the $165 million in bonuses toward Liddy rather than having it reflect on their own incompetence and deception.
