2012 Is About Barack Obama: This Cannot Be Over-Emphasized

by Smitty Power Line nails it, emphasis mine: What happened to Herman Cain is what the Democrats intend to do to whoever the Republican nominee turns out to be. They know they can’t win a debate on the economy or on President Obama’s record, so they will do everything they can to distract the voters’ […]

Why Can’t Obama?

by Smitty This. Must. Be. The. Question: Click the image to watch: If The Tea Party Can Balance Budget In Four Years, Why Can’t Obama? There are a couple of issues of equal weight today, and maybe the boom gets lowered after the GOP primaries, but, to paraphrase Da Tech Guy, every day the failure […]

Candidate Cain Said “I’m Not Supposed To Know Anything About Foreign Policy”, Whereas President Obama Lives It

by Smitty In case the president is unaware, England forms part of Great Britain, which also includes Scotland and Wales, though not Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. There is no such thing as an “English” embassy anywhere in the world, and there hasn’t been one for several centuries. This blog doubles […]

Obama Flunks History, Mischaracterizes Herbert Hoover’s Economic Policy

Ed Driscoll called this to my attention: “This competition for new jobs and businesses and middle-class security, that’s the race I know we can win. But you don’t win it by saying every American is on their own. We’re not going to win it if we just hand out more tax cuts to people who […]

Stupor Committee A Study In Farce.
Yet Mitt’s Ad ‘A Deceitful And Dishonest Attack’? Maybe Santorum Can Help

by Smitty Hensarling: Ultimately, the committee did not succeed because we could not bridge the gap between two dramatically competing visions of the role government should play in a free society, the proper purpose and design of the social safety net, and the fundamentals of job creation and economic growth. Well, that is about as […]

President Obama Sends Me E-Mail

Maybe it’s because I’m so influential in the blogosphere (no matter what Tabitha Hale says). Or maybe it’s because I signed up for an e-mail news alert while I was covering the 2008 campaign. Either way, I think you’ll agree that it’s pretty nice of President Obama to take time from his busy schedule to […]

VIDEO: Rep. Allen West Serves Up The Red Meat Clip Of The Year

by Smitty Rep. Allen West summarizes “Bag” Holder’s ignoble career, and politely suggests that even #OccupyResoluteDesk may be complicit in Fast & Furious. Wow. To be a fly on the wall when Barack saw that one. . . via Nice Deb, who has a whole lot more. Update: Daily Pundit is less impressed. In response […]
