(Hat tip to Blue Crab Boulevard.) I certainly remember Democrats and the mainstream media (the same thing, really) ranting about the millions of jobs lost under Bush, not to mention the climbing deficits. Funny how quiet they are now. I’m not sure we will see unemployment under Obama get back down to the highest point […]
…can’t trust that day. Or the weekend, apparently. Video above courtesy of Gateway Pundit. Not what George Lucas had in mind, I dare say. Backlash? What backlash? Once again, the “Serenity” trailer as a metaphor for the growing conservative rebellion. “No. They’re not going to see this coming.” The poster below has been showing up […]
You know, the massive stimulus that was absolutely necessary to keep unemployment from rising above 8.0%? Kind of missed the target, didn’t it? Anyone want to guess what unemployment will be in November 2010? November 2012? I’m willing to bet $1000 that it won’t be down to 7.0% and 5.5%, respectively, as the Obama economic […]
From USA Today: The Obama administration’s $3 billion “cash for clunkers” program should be renamed “cash for gas-guzzling pickup trucks,” according to an Associated Press analysis of the data. AP reports that for 8,200 deals — the most common — buyers traded in their old Ford 150 pickups for new Ford 150 pickups. Fuel economy […]
…oh what a beautiful day! McDonnell wins in Virginia by nearly a 20% margin; ditto for the Republican candidates in the Lt. Governor and State Attorney General races. Christie wins in New Jersey in spite of Democratic control of the state top to bottom. And, of course, Obama isn’t watching the returns. Went to New […]
Via Wesley J. Smith at Critical Condition (National Review Online) comes this ‘death panel’ tale from the health care paradise to the north of us: Bonnie Cameron and Cindy Waters-Goodman do not know each other, but they have much in common. Both are feisty, small-town Ontarians who were young, busy mothers when hit with diagnoses […]
Much like Cash for Clunkers, but on a vaster scale, the Obama stimulus package is being revealed as a fraudulent failure. The Denver Post shows that the numbers here in Colorado just don’t add up: The federal government reported Friday that Colorado created or saved 8,094 jobs through grants, loans and contracts funded by the […]
Yeah, the process scares me as well. Hat tip to Mark Tapscott at the Washington Examiner. ..bruce w..
I’ve got a nephew (CPL Darren Green, USMC) who’s just coming back from Afghanistan (Helmand Province, no less). I’m very thankful he wasn’t one of the ones that Pres. Obama met at midnight at Dover AFB, and that my sister, brother-in-law, and niece didn’t have to travel there to meet him as well. While (like […]
I have largely put presidential politics on “mute” since March or so, it is clear that given the dynamics of the current government, the Democrats have a clear field and may do as they wish for now. As such there has been little going on that I would single out for compliment. But today is […]
