Obama’s Failed Presidency

“Obama: Anatomy of a World Leader,” by Alex Gray (detail) A disaster, a catastrophe, a cataclysm: “I want to make government cool again,” he said. Obama believed in government, and he was confident that his election would signal that the American people were ready to believe again, too. As we approach the sixth anniversary of […]

Jerry Seinfeld Accidentally Explains The Obama Administration

by Smitty Alternate title: “If only Barack Obama had delivered this for his Nobel Prize acceptance. . .” I shared the clip a second time with Mrs. Other Smitty this morning, and I realized that Seinfeld was really explaining how this country could possibly be duped by a no-talent rodeo clown.

The Democrat Lifestyle™

William Costello was a serial rapist and a Colorado Democrat. But I repeat myself. Costello, 47, was arrested in July 2012 after he assaulted an old man in the parking lot of a Denver supermarket.

Another Community Organizer? We Need That Like Additional Cranial Ventilation

by Smitty Emphasis original: The Obama Doctrine – “Don’t do stupid sh*t” – has been rendered in non-PG version as “Don’t do stupid stuff”. But it should be more pithily streamlined yet: Don’t do. I guess one major value added by the Obama Administration is that we’ve more or less seen an operational test of […]

Question For An Office Holder

Dear @BarackObama: If it's OK for you to say ISIL is not Islamic, does that justify those who say you're not Christian? R, C @instapundit — 'Teahadist' h/t@DMat (@smitty_one_each) September 11, 2014 Spake Bobo: I think a president should always be saluted when they go against their natural inclinations. His inclination is not to use military force. It’s certainly […]

Violence, Foreign and Domestic

Americans demand that action be taken to deal with two grave threats, radical Islamic terrorism and NFL running backs: The N.F.L. remained on the defensive Tuesday as questions mounted over its handling of the domestic abuse case involving one of its star running backs, Ray Rice. Commissioner Roger Goodell went on national television to address […]
