- Syrian Slander
March 9, 2010Immediately following the devastating earthquake in Haiti, Israel flew an incredible amount of doctors and equipment there (more so than any other country, proportionately speaking)—some of the best and most advanced technology—and made an incredible difference in the aftermath. While most critics of Israel at least acknowledged the humanitarianism and generosity of the country, there are [...]
- More Blatant Reuters Bias
March 5, 2010I couldn’t help but seethe as I read a recent “news alert” from Reuters AlertNet, loaded with an unbelievable amount of spin and bias. The story involves Muslims hurling rocks at Jews from above, as the Jews pray below harmlessly at the Western Wall. Note that these large rocks (sometimes euphemized as “stones”) can cause—and have [...]
- Dubai Police Chief Should “Be Ashamed” Of His Moral Confusion
February 28, 2010CNN is reporting that the Dubai police chief said that the Mossad “needs to be ashamed” after the assassination Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. His statement was: The Mossad needs to be ashamed of its actions… They sent 26, 27 persons to assassinate one man who was involved in the capturing and killing of two Israeli solders. So, let me [...]
- The Epitome of Hypocrisy
February 24, 2010Naked Emperor News has compiled what has to be one of the most hearty meals of crow that the Dems are going to have to eat right now, as they all continue to babble on about using the “nuclear option” to ram their corpulent health care obscenity through Congress. This beautiful compilation includes an all-star cast [...]
- Muslim Students at UC Irvine Twist “Free Speech”
February 21, 2010About two weeks ago, Michael Oren, the Israeli ambassador to the United States came to the University of California at Irvine to speak, by invitation of the university’s faculty. Muslim hecklers in the crowd interrupted him almost a dozen times, to the point where Professor Mark Petracca, chairman of the university’s Political Science department, issued [...]

Out Of Touch Congress
In case you’re wondering why Congress seems so out of touch with “normal people”, look no further than the new report put out by the Center for Responsive Politics, in which they list a whopping 237 millionaire members of Congress. Politico reports: Talk about bad timing. As Washington reels from the news of 10.2 percent unemployment, the... »
1,990 Pages of Crap
“(a) Outpatient Hospitals – (1) In General – Section 1833(t)(3)(C)(iv) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395(t)(3)(C)(iv)) is amended – (A) in the first sentence – (i) by inserting “(which is subject to the productivity adjustment described in subclause (II) of such section)” after “1886(b)(3)(B)(iii); and (ii) by inserting “(but not below 0)”... »
Connecticut Has Solitaire Representation In Congress
If you live in Connecticut, you now have another reason to hate your representation in Congress: instead of taking part in–or at the very least paying attention to–ongoing debate, your representatives are keeping themselves quite busy… playing solitaire. Just check out this picture of Rep. Barbara Lambert (D-CT), and Rep. Jack F. Hennessy (D-CT) playing solitaire... »
Ted Kennedy Has No Shame
Yes, I know the headline of this post is hardly news to anyone, but how else do you describe it when a senator brazenly attempts to change a law multiple times with the sole objective of retaining political power for his party? He first did it in 2004, when John Kerry, his fellow Democrat senator... »
Senators Press Obama To Press Arab World, Part II
I posted previously regarding the efforts of Senators Evan Bayh (D-IN) and James Risch (R-ID) to press Obama to put pressure on the Arab world. Despite some rabblerousing by the leftist organization Americans for Peace Now, trying to stop the impact of the letter and trying to counter the initiative with a letter of their... »
Democrat Scare Tactics
The quick rollout of the Democrats fear machine against legitimate protests taking place across the nation in astounding numbers is not something to take lightly or underestimate. This new scare tactic of the Democrats in trying to paint those opposed to their rush job on health care as part of “an angry mob” and... »
More Congressional Hypocrisy
Roll Call has this infuriating report: Last year, lawmakers excoriated the CEOs of the Big Three automakers for traveling to Washington, D.C., by private jet to attend a hearing about a possible bailout of their companies. But apparently Congress is not philosophically averse to private air travel: At the end of July, the House approved nearly... »
Heat: Wrap-Up
James Taranto’s Best of the Web Today has a great summary of all the heat the Democrat congressman are feeling now, coming home to their constituents, as well as a good take on the Democrats’ diversionary tactics in attempting to deal with all the heat: Now you can see why President Obama was in such... »
Heat, continued
Yesterday, I posted a couple of YouTube videos showing the heat being turned up on the Democrats in Congress. Here are a couple more for your viewing pleasure: First, here’s Congressman Steve Driehaus (D-OH) getting read the riot act from one of his constituents… and exhibiting a truly hilarious look on his face at the... »
More on Specter and Unreadably Long Bills
I recently posted about Senator Arlen Specter’s (D-PA) stupid comments that Congress has “to make judgments very fast” instead of actually reading bills. A Specter defender out there on the internet tried to claim that: Every CEO in the country, including Ronald Reagan as President, reads executive summaries of important documents. The idea that any Senator... »
Turning Up The Heat On The Democrats
As “tea parties” proliferate nationwide and Obama finally faces some serious questions about some items on his agenda, Democrat members of Congress are also feeling the heat as their constituents ratchet up the criticism. And now, with Congress’s August Recess here, you can bet that a lot of Democrat congressmen are afraid to go... »
Congressman Conyers: “What Good Is Reading The Bill?”
In a very candid moment, Congressman John Conyers (D-MI) revealed his disenchantment with actually reading such long bills for voting in Congress, when he says, “what good is reading the bill if it’s a thousand pages and you don’t have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you read... »
Obama Chastises: “When you rush these budgets… and nobody has read them”
Naked Emperor News has just posted a great clip on YouTube. In it (seen below, followed by an excerpted transcript), you’ll hear Obama complaining about Congress voting on bills in haste without reading them. Of course, though, he wasn’t talking about the 111th Congress voting on his supported initiatives. Noooo, he was talking about Congress... »
What’s Good For The Goose…?
Opinion Journal reports on a recent amendment that was proposed and voted on in the Senate health committee that would require all members of Congress and their staff to enroll in the “public option”. Here are the (not-so-)surprising results: All Democrats — with the exceptions of acting chairman Chris Dodd, Barbara Mikulski and Ted Kennedy via... »
