R.I.P.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. ~ John 14:27 Be at peace. The “establishment machine” is not to blame for Matt Geary’s apparent suicide. Stop it. This means you [...]

Grassroots Leader Michelle Malkin Makes Strong Case for Santorum (and against Newt)

Good points. Author of “The Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats, Crooks, and Cronies” Michelle Malkin gives one of the best endorsements I’ve heard so far, and this from a REAL tea party leader: For Santorum Rick Santorum opposed TARP. He didn’t cave when Chicken Littles in Washington invoked a manufactured crisis [...]

Palin: If For No Other Reason to Rage Against the Machine, Vote Newt

And annoy a liberal. Click to listen Newt. whose political career spanning decades in and around DC insiders supposedly makes him an outsider, is now suddenly the champion of the grassroots.  We know why this is, right?   Not because people really like him.  By simple virtue of the fact that he is one of the last men [...]

Progressives Celebrate the Military — As Their Model for Civilians

Fall in line, soldier! Click to watch @1:00 “So once again, the mystery man of politics gets his own way and his own country.” I cannot recommend George Will’s column in the Washington Post, enough. Obama to the nation:  Onward civilian soldiers The armed services’ ethos, although noble, is not a template for civilian society, [...]

About Those “Bold Ideas”, Herman

I’ll take the traditional crust. Well….at least he knows pizza Herman Cain “officially and enthusiastically” endorsed Newt at a Republican event in Palm Beach this evening. Cain cited the former House speaker’s “bold ideas” as the basis for his choice, saying Gingrich wasn’t afraid to propose big ideas that would benefit the nation. “There are [...]

Sarah Palin Is Wrong to Blame the Establishment for Newt’s Problems

Thinks the Establishment Should Be Kinder to the Imperfect Vessel Palin has posted a rather long defense of Newt on her Facebook page, accusing the GOP establishment of Alinsky style tactics against Gingrich this week.  I admire Sarah, but she’s just wrong here. Obviously Newt would love for us to think he’s the victim of [...]

The Cost of a College Schooling

Versus education. More Wrong Lessons via the Educator in Chief Obama discussed college affordability on the campus of the University of Michigan this morning, talking about plans to create competitive rewards for colleges that keep costs in check.  The “rewards”, in the form of financial incentives doled out by the feds, of course will be [...]

The US Department of Google, Part 2

Solutions. Money, and Power and Evil Intentions It stands to follow that any company with Don’t Be Evil as its mantra was really all about being evil in the first place. No surprise: The one who claims to be the most pure often harbors the most illicit secrets. From the beginning, Google has shown a [...]

Newt, the Not-Romney, is Not-Going to Beat Obama

This can’t be happening.  When a group of tea partiers came out for Newt last week, I was incredulous.  Newt Gingrich, the culmination of the tea party’s efforts?  No, seriously. Then Sarah Palin sort of endorsed him…followed by Perry. I lost respect for them both at that point.  Neither made a believable case for doing so, other [...]

The TSA Admits It Is a Cruel Joke

Had to feel through my hair to exert control. The TSA has admitted to publicly humiliating and degrading two elderly women at JFK airport: In an about-face, the feds have admitted wrongdoing in the cases of two elderly women who say they were strip-searched at Kennedy Airport by overzealous screeners. Federal officials had initially insisted [...]
