When I entered the military service 35 years ago, I took an oath ” to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same”. All public officials swear a similar oath when they are admitted to their elected or appointed office. When I entered public employment, I gave up many of the rights that employees in the private sector are entitled to have. Continue reading
Oh Praise The Weiner, at least until he has disgraced himself beyond levels of decency. Lies and false incriminations of criminality are acceptable to a point, but eventually, even a Democrat reaches a point too far. Now that the hounds of reality and truth have treed the dark haired spokesman for Progressivism and all things Socialist in the tree of accountability, there is still one option open.
Weiner now must fall upon the sword of mental illness; in a move meant to gather a sympathetic army of thoughtless Progressive Socialists around him, he now feigns a disease that no one has heard of, but one that guarantees him time and an excuse for his wretched behavior. He is no longer considered a wretched pervert: he is now a victim of a terrible disease and he was helpless to resist the symptoms of the disease. Continue reading
Barack Obama has unveiled a crisp, fresh and new campaign theme.
President Obama has devised a new strategy for dealing with troubling economic developments: Showcase optimism about turning around the economy while reassuring voters that although he understands their fears he isn’t directly responsible for their pain.
Looks like the “unbiased” comedian Jon Stewart is a bit pissed with Steven Crowder. It seems Crowder received an email from a senior producer of Stewarts show in which he/she admitted “they never book conservative pundits.” Crowder released the email, Stewart got pissed, and after receiving a call from Stewarts office Crowder’s agent dropped him.
The life of being conservative in Hollywood: Continue reading
Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) is reportedly “dug in,” refusing to resign despite the growing list of Democrats calling for his ouster. Perhaps Democratic leadership (the minority leader included) should have the nerve to kick him off his committees and publicly call for him to scram.
Meanwhile, Newt Gingrich’s senior staff and his Iowa crew have quit. En masse. Whether it was the general flakiness, the attack on Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) or the bizarre decision to go on a cruise just when the campaign was getting underway, his staff simply couldn’t take it.
President Obama and his administration have had a difficult (at best) time with his economic policies, and those policy decisions will (if we do our job) have an effect upon his reelection prospects. So let’s examine his policies and be knowledgeable so WE are ready to spread the word. As Lao-tzu (604 BC – 531 BC) said, “People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.” Continue reading
Chris Matthews, after Mitt Romney said he believed in global warming: “”He [Romney] believes in science. Republicans on the right hate science, remember? Certainly Rush does. That’s ahead. The battle between the college guys and the rubes. ”
Chris Matthews, who is becoming almost a parody of himself: “If [Weiner] stays, [Democrats] never get the leadership [in the House] back. They never get the speakership back. Because the people in the rural areas of this country who are Christian, conservative, culturally – you can say `backward’ if you want – they don’t like this stuff.” Continue reading
We must not forget the heroic words of Nancy Pelosi in 2006, when she vowed that if she became Speaker of The House that she would, “drain the swamp of corruption.” It was a noble phrase that Americans were waiting to hear and Nancy surely paid a speech writer well for his effort. The phrase could have been a pledge to be honored, bringing bothb honor and integrity to a House that has been marred with corruption and scandal. Instead, it became another empty slogan of a campaign, to be forgotten amid wars and an increasingly vulnerable economy. Unfortunately, the dirty Weiner arose from his pulpit of sanctimonious indignation and served to remind the public of the outrageous hyperbole of Pelosi’s proclamation.

In Dickens’ Oliver Twist, Mr. Bumble is told “the law supposes that your wife acts under your direction”. To that Bumble replies “If the law supposes that, the law is a ass—a idiot.”
The press is also a ass. Specifically, the NY Times, WaPo, the LA Times and mostly, Politico. Continue reading
