LOL of the Day: Sneering WaPo blogger goofs big time on Sarah Palin hit piece

Posted by: ST on February 12, 2013 at 2:18 pm » 5 Comments

Oh, this is SO delicious. Dylan Byers at Politico writes (hat tip): The Washington Post has erroneously reported that Sarah Palin, the former vice presidential candidate and former Fox News contributor, is joining the Qatari-owned news network Al Jazeera. “Late last week Al Jazeera America announced the former vice-presidential candidate would be joining their news network,” [...]

 

Oh, gee. Look at that. Pro-Obama voter fraud in… Ohio

Posted by: Phineas on February 8, 2013 at 2:59 pm » 10 Comments

**Posted by Phineas No, I’m not one of those who believe Obama stole the 2012 election. He won that fair and square through superb organization. (And a pathetic GOTV effort by the Romney campaign.) But there are persistent reports of voter fraud: people voting twice, “dead people” voting, non-citizens voting, et cetera. Mention these concerns, [...]

Governor Bobby Jindal joined a meeting of the Republican National Committee here in Charlotte this week as the party licks its wounds from the devastating election losses last year, and tries to look for a path forward.  Jindal’s speech was last night and has generated quite a buzz, and a LOT of 2016 speculation.  For [...]

 

Obamacare guts the pay of yet more of its strongest supporters

Posted by: Phineas on January 22, 2013 at 2:36 pm » 10 Comments

**Posted by Phineas We’ve seen this before: state and community colleges cutting the hours of its part-time faculty to avoid the increased financial burdens of Obamacare. Well, to paraphrase Ronald Reagan, here we go again: In Ohio, instructor Robert Balla faces a new cap on the number of hours he can teach at Stark State [...]

 

CAPTION THIS: Biden sworn in at #Inaugural2013 while Obama seemingly smirks

Posted by: ST on January 21, 2013 at 7:32 pm » 7 Comments

Heh. Via the Sacramento Bee: The look on Obama’s face as he looks at Biden is intriguing. Gotta wonder what he’s thinking there. And for extra laughs from the VP on a day where conservatives weren’t laughing much at all, there is this: “I’m proud to be president of the United States, but I am [...]

 

#MSDNC’s Tingles Matthews compares #Inaug2013 speech to … Gettysburg Address

Posted by: ST on January 21, 2013 at 6:00 pm » 2 Comments

This about sum’s up the nauseating tone of the fawning MSM coverage of our celebrity President’s second (and thank goodness – LAST) inaugural address today (via Eliana Johnson at NRO): Barack Obama is perhaps the only modern president who has had the burden of swatting away comparisons between his own soaring rhetoric and that of [...]

 

Aww: Tina Fey tired of being mistaken for Sarah Palin

Posted by: ST on January 18, 2013 at 11:09 am » 29 Comments

Politico reports: Tina Fey isn’t thrilled that she’s constantly associated with former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, whom she famously impersonated during the 2008 presidential election. From Rolling Stone: As the late-middle-aged couple at the table next to us get up, the male half approaches, grinning: “Excuse me, aren’t you Governor Sarah Palin?” It’s so lame [...]

Posted by: Phineas on January 16, 2013 at 3:18 pm » 2 Comments

**Posted by Phineas Wait, wasn’t the PPACA supposed to lower medical costs? Why yes, yes it was: Congress and the President have enacted a historic health care reform law that will help ensure that all families are able to get the care they need, as well as financial security and relief from rising premiums. The [...]

 

Obamacare: the regulations avalanche begins

Posted by: Phineas on December 5, 2012 at 3:51 pm » 6 Comments

**Posted by Phineas People are going to hate this, but, hey, it’s what they voted for: It took the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) 159 pages to explain one new Obamacare tax on investments that will be used to pay for Obamacare. Only individuals and families making more than $200,000 and $250,000, respectively, will be impacted [...]
