Who Knew @BarackObama Was A Fan Of @Vadum’s Old Band, Focus?

by Smitty If only the United Nations were half as good as Matt Vadum’s old band Focus. Check out Matthew’s yodeling while occupying the ivories in this classic performance: If the U.N. actually rocked like that, Barack-man wouldn’t have to put up a red line. And he certainly wouldn’t call the efforts of the world’s […]

Could the Creepy Orwellian Vibe at MSNBC Possibly Get Any Creepier?

Ken Shepherd at Newsbusters notices that MSNBC’s Facebook page is basically publishing pro-Obama propaganda memes:   Ace of Spades highlighted this, and I was tempted to write an entire post explaining how MSNBC has maneuvered itself into its current bizarre predicament as The Bomb Syria Now Network. I Watch MSNBC So You Don’t Have To™ […]

#Syria: Liberals Finally Beginning to Notice Obama Isn’t Really All That?

Governing is so much harder than campaigning: Chris Matthews of MSNBC, who served on Capitol Hill for years as a top Democratic aide, put the party’s dilemma in stark terms on Wednesday: “I think the Democrats are going to be forced to sacrifice men and women who really, really don’t want to vote for this.

#Syria: ‘Just Thinking Out Loud’

You can never go wrong, doing the opposite of what John Kerry says. Being against this stupid policy, however, […]

Can We Just Have the Air Force Drop Cable TV News Anchors on Syria?

At this moment, John Kerry is on TV demanding that the United States must now involve itself in the Syrian civil war. No sane person is in favor of this. John McCain is in favor of this. I rest my case. Having made up my mind weeks ago that U.S. involvement in Syria is bad […]

Taiwanese Animators Weigh In On #Syria

by Smitty They make the point that, in giving Congress time to fiddle around with a vote, the Syrians can pack up the munitions and, oh, truck them anywhere. Invites the Schrödinger’s WMD question: If I bomb falls in the forest on a dead cat, which bounces higher?

So The Kneepad Media Has A Pass On #Syria. Will It Grow Real Curiosity?

by Smitty Fareed Zakaria is miffed: . . .it’s hard not to conclude that the administration’s handling of Syria over the last year has been a case study in how not to do foreign policy. But will the media grow some stones and note that Obama’s foreign policy is roughly as jacked up as his […]
