NASA now says the bright streak of light seen in the skies over the southwest United States was a meteor. Witnesses say it dazzled brightly, then flamed out quickly – kind of like Obama’s presidency. – Jay Leno
Blacks In The GOP
A Black Liberal cyber friend wrote in commentary, “the GOP will never nominate a Black”. This is a profound statement and I am sure he thinks it is the truth and it may well be, but I have heard many Conservatives on talk radio express the opposite opinion.
Let me start by saying Conservatives and Republicans may swim in the same pond, but since Reagan, there have been some major differences. A Republican will consider a Conservative part of the GOP, but many Conservatives are looking at the profligate and capitulating behavior of GOP members in Washington with indignation, while wondering if they may as well be whispering to a typhoon. Consequently, many Conservatives only consider ourselves Republicans by default; with resignation, many Conservatives feel the GOP is their only option.
Did Sen. Patrick Leahy obstruct Gunwalker investigation? [Reader Post]
Recordings released via CBS reporter Sharyl Atkisson offer many disturbing comments regarding the Gunwalker scandal. Weapons dealer Andre Howard is speaking with ATF agent Hope McAlister.
On one of the recordings it is suggested that putting a private investigator on Senator Chuck Grassley could help diminish Grassley’s enthusiasm for the Gunwalker investigation:
Actually, Your Opinion on Gays in the Military Probably Doesn’t Matter [Reader Post]
With “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” ending, the subject of gays serving in the military is making the discussion rounds again, and I thought this would be a good a time as any to chime in. Without going too deep into the issue the biggest arguments for and against break down into two main schools of thought. Those in favor of allowing gays to openly serve argue that we’re keeping qualified personnel from serving during a time of need and this is discrimination akin to racial integration in the military. Those against argue that the sexual element interferes with unit cohesion and creates an unnecessary distraction. Or to repeat a phrase that Rush Limbaugh likes to use, “the purpose of the military is to hurt people and to break things. It is not the place for a social experiment.”

Why Were Infrastructure Improvements Not Paid For By The Last Stimulus? [Reader Post]
President Barack Obama wants to improve infrastructure. His $447 billion “jobs bill” has in it $50 billion for infrastructure repair/improvement, and $10 billion to start a National Infrastructure Bank. So the questions are, Why were infrastructure improvements not paid for by the last stimulus? What happened to the money for infrastructure in his $787 billion stimulus bill? To answer these questions, let’s examine both stimulus bills, stimulus spending, and infrastructure spending.
Democrats Threaten Government Shutdown, Hold Up Of Disaster Relief, To Protect Green Energy Cronies
So let me get this straight. With unemployment over 9%, with our economy in shambles, and the world starting to panic over their own economy, the brilliant plan by Reid and his cronies is to shut down the federal government?
Wow!
NASA Can Predict Temperature 200 Years Into The Future, But Where To Park Bus Sized Satellite?
NASA scientists are hoping a bus sized satellite will disintegrate on reentry and people won’t be run down by their dead climate satellite that they presumably used to contribute to the Anthropomorphic Global Warming hysteria. It will land today, but by using the same mathematical skills they employed in the Left’s political ploy to weaken the US and redistribute its’ wealth among developing countries like China, they don’t have a clue as to where to reserve a parking space for their dead orbiting climate change bus.
NASA gained valuable insight and a sense of relief into the parking issue on Thursday, when they decided the bus sized satellite would miss the Western Hemisphere, saving them the hassles of litigation in an LA or NY civil law court. The prospect of a confrontation in a Liberal court that has no tort reform must be frightening to the wizards at NASA.
The 99% Doctrine
What is the 99% Doctrine? I’m confident, man, that anything Ron Suskind writes should be held suspect of being made up of about 99% Bull****. Yes, this includes his new book, Confidence Men: Wall Street, Washington, and the Education of a President.
Democrat Fix To A Failing Green Economy? Throw More Money At It [Reader Post]
Bill Clinton demonstrates the business acumen as Barack Obama. That is to say, none.
It seems axiomatic that when a program is proven to be a failure, democrats will redouble their efforts to institute it.
