Pausing in the middle of helping to (successfully) get Kermit Gosnell’s name trending on Twitter – so as to shame the national MSM into devoting more attention to it – to bring you this story (hat tip): A career criminal who stole a truck containing President Obama’s audio equipment was sentenced Thursday to seven years in [...]

The New Year’s Day deal to avoid going over the cliff, which included higher marginal tax rates [...]
**Posted by Phineas National debt approaching $17 trillion? North Korean nukes and the threat of war on the peninsula? America’s credit rating? Nah, it’s March Madness, baby! And Barack Obama, President of the United States, tweeted this morning to remind everyone to get in on the fun: Finish your bracket: It’s time for #MarchMadness. twitter.com/BarackObama/st… [...]
**Posted by Phineas It struck me recently that I hadn’t posted one of Bill’s excellent Afterburner videos in a while, so here’s a good one to get re-started with. In it, Bill looks at the cuts made, so the administration claims, due to the devastating effects of sequestration and asks, “If things are so tough [...]
**Posted by Phineas They made and broke the same promises: Compare that to this statement by the Man Who Would Be FDR: “This is big,” wrote White House director of new media Macon Phillips in a February 23, 2009 blog post, ”the President today promised that by the end of his first term, he will [...]
