Lost In Space: After Retiring Shuttles & Cancelling Constellation, Russian Ride To Space In Doubt

Published by under All General Discussions

OK, did we just strand our astronauts in orbit due to mindless Obama cuts at NASA? We recently witnessed the last flight of the US Space Shuttle program and now Russia’s Progress vehicle has had an accident and may not be safe for regular flights to/from the International Space Station: Russia may fail to fulfill […]

Racism Card In America Defunct Since 2008

I have to laugh at the dried up, knee-jerk and lame attacks from the tired liberal left’s old guard these days. It seems they have decided to trot out the race card and try for more white guilt. I guess they missed the memo. In 2008 America elected an African American (or Black if you […]

Surviving The 2011 Virginia Earthquake

Published by under All General Discussions

Well, that was an interesting day, to say the least. Like everyone else in and around DC this afternoon I was at my office desk working when I felt a shimmy run through my office. The first pulse was not enough to pull me immediately from my computer, but I looked out across the hall […]

Obama’s Support Collapses With Voters

Published by under 2012 Elections

As I said many times, credibility is a fragile and fleeting resource in politics. Once you lose it, it tends to collapse rapidly, with only a few groupies hanging on as the rest of the voters move on. Obama is now in that kind of complete collapse, which is not surprising after his tone deaf […]

Wisconsin Unions Can’t Support Themselves

Published by under All General Discussions

[H/T to Ann Althouse for Picture] It turns out one of the strangest and clearly useless ‘unions’ I have ever heard of is now defunct – thanks Governor Scott Walker and the GOP legislature. It turns out that in Wisconsin, a program to help financially struggling but promising students become Teaching Assistants was co-opted by […]

Click Image For More Obama Misery Tour Fun I have never seen a political collapse like the one we are seeing consume President Obama and the Democrats right now. Even the debacle of 2010 is beginning to pale in comparison to what is happening in the headlines. When Reverend Wright said America’s chickens were coming […]

Obama Now A One Term Disaster

Published by under All General Discussions

The bottom is falling out of President Obama’s public support. Apparently it never occurred to Obama, Reid and Pelosi that their risky liberals schemes actually had to work in order to avoid destroying the Democrat party and burying liberal Keynesian economics for all time. From the left wing mortgage lending disaster (now everyone in a […]

Lame Complainer-in-Chief

Published by under All General Discussions

Barack Obama is out of ideas (that he is willing to consider). Now all he has is endless complaints. As he notes on his Magical Misery tour this week, there are lots of options in front of us to right the economy. Proven methods for getting money into consumer hands and into the private sector […]

The End Of Liberal Credibility

Published by under All General Discussions

As it always should be, credibility is earned through results and not by claims of superior motives (something the rabid liberal left will never grasp). So it is no surprise to see this crushing poll from Rasmussen regarding the credibility of liberal verses conservative economic approaches: A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely […]

Winners & Losers

This week has been interesting on many fronts.  But any review of events must be seen in the context of a nation trying to enjoy the last few weeks of summer while probably doing everything they can to keep politics out of the picture. Too bad we can’t also keep the Obama economy out of […]
