I know there are some polls out there with some heavy tilt towards Barack Obama, but I tend to watch Gallup which has been running a daily tracking poll for weeks now on the Presidential race and is showing just the opposite: The reason Gallup is an interesting poll is it samples one of the […]

  Today the US Supreme Court has ruled in favor of all those gun-toting bitter people who desire to protect their family and property: The Supreme Court ruled on Thursday, for the first time in U.S. history, that individual Americans have the right to own guns for personal use, and struck down a strict gun […]

Presidential candidate Barack Obama just broke the hearts of just about everyone who helped him defeat Hillary Clinton to become the liberal (and Democrat) Presidential candidate. Obama through his liberal supporters under the bus on one of the key signature liberal issues.  Specifically, the new FISA laws put into place by President Bush and Democrats […]

One of our readers (Vince1974) reminded us of this January 1999 ABC News special on the ties between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda posted last year on Powerline. When a liberal claims there never was any evidence of a connection between Saddam and al-Qaeda (like coordinating attacks in 2002 with AQ number 2 Ayman Zawahiri) don’t […]

I guess I am proud floater who drifts right more often than naught, at least according to the Brits: The british have a more sophisticated and accurate lexicon to describe their elections than we crass Americans do.

Was it really only just last week Presidential candidate Barack Obama promised to fight the telecom amnesty element of the new FISA legislation that gave Bush everything he wanted and more to protect America from terrorist attack? When promoting how the House Dems caved on […]

NASA “Scientists”, media whore and alarmist Hansen is out again screaming “the sky is falling” because of Global Warming, and more importantly crowing about his prediction 20 years ago – which never came true! Here is Hansen discussing everything about the Church of Al Gore – except the fact the IPCC predictions from 18 years ago never […]

The ugly side of the Democrat Party has been exposed in terrible clarity as it tries to deal with the nomination battle between Clinton and Obama.  I had no idea how cruel and uncaring the Democrats could be against their own base when it dares to not follow the party line.  I was simply stunned […]

The most glaring example of this I have seen recently is this story from the UK on […]
