Could Obama Be Any More Arrogant?
I mean, the guy's already talking about how to redecorate the Lincoln Bedroom for Pete's sake.
He's not president yet, but Barack Obama has already given some thought to White House decor.
Asked at a town hall-style meeting in Fargo, N.D., about any decorating plans for the Lincoln Bedroom, Obama described a visit to the White House [...]

Quotes Of The Day
Very interesting and growingly consistent sentiments are cropping up on Barack Obama's very own website blog. Can he get his supporters to "push back" on their own…?
This year I have taken the unusual steps of voting, caucusing, and cajoling my friends and neighbors and coworkers to vote for Obama. I have even, for the first [...]
Feminist Failure: Full and Frontal

Death-Watch Hypocrites
Considerate liberals on The Huffington Post are outraged that Geraldo Rivera (and Fox News) broadcast long shots of the body of supermodel Ruslana Korshunova shortly after the nine-story fall to her death.
Is Korshunova's death news? Of course — but it doesn't need to be so graphically illustrated. A sustained shot of Korshunova's face, her face [...]
God Bless America
If you don't do it regularly, set aside today, at least, to thank a soldier. If you know one, call or email 'em your gratitude. If you see one at a restaurant, offer to pick up his or her tab. If you see one in passing, take a moment to personally thank [...]

At first glance, they look like a couple of giant inflatable garden chairs that have washed out to sea. But they are, apparently, the ultimate solution to rapidly rising sea levels.
This computer-generated image shows two floating cities, each with enough room for 50,000 inhabitants.
Good, they can go there and leave the rest of us alone.
Now, If This Were The Other Way Around…
Let's see how this is justified and spun.
Two schoolboys were given detention after refusing to kneel down and 'pray to Allah' during a religious education lesson.
Parents were outraged that the two boys from year seven (11 to 12-year-olds) were punished for not wanting to take part in the practical demonstration of how Allah is worshipped.
A [...]
Unlike Progressives, Our Soldiers Won't Quit
So much for how demoralized the left says the troops are.
More than 1,200 US troops serving in Iraq signed up for extended service in the military to mark America's national day on Friday.
At least 1,215 troops re-enlisted for periods ranging from two to six years at the ceremony held at the spacious Al-Faw palace of [...]
McCain's "Amnesty II" Scheme
John McCain wants us to trust and vote for him. Yet, he's preparing to stab us in the back once he gets what he wants. And he wonders why his conservative support is so soft…
Boldly declaring that he will make comprehensive immigration reform his “top priority,” during his first 100 days in office, Sen. John [...]
Obama The Liar
When even a completely biased paper like The New York Times is ticked off about all of Obama's flip flops, that's really saying something.
Now there seems to be a new Barack Obama on the hustings. First, he broke his promise to try to keep both major parties within public-financing limits for the general election. His [...]

Because of political correctness, people are afraid to speak their minds. Does that mean that polls showing strong support for Barack Obama are stacked with those who may feel pressured to voice support for a black candidate?
An Atlanta pollster thinks a potentially significant number of people who say they'll vote for Barack Obama won't.
David Johnson [...]
Dancing On Helms' Grave
This is only the beginning.
Former NC senator and friend of Bono Jesse Helms has died at the age of 86. Known for his ultra-conservative policies and his influence in Washington over 30 years, he was often called a "polarizing figure" but few can deny his political success.
Whether you're a life-long supporter or you hated [...]
Ego Is Everything
I'm all for free speech, but why do these people feel the need for political relevance?
If anything, my portrayal of David Palmer, I think, may have helped open the eyes of the American people.
— Dennis Haysbert, the first black U.S. president on Fox's "24", who thinks he may have helped pave the way for Barack [...]
Blogger Admits Hawaii Birth Certif Forgery
What was this guy thinkin'…?
Jay McKinnon, a self-described Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist, has implicated himself in the production of fake Hawaii birth certificate images similar to the one endorsed as genuine by the Barack Obama campaign, and appearing on the same Daily Kos blog entry where the supposedly authentic document appears.
Was this a [...]
Obama And Tax Increases
Let's see now. The GOP says Barack Obama voted for tax increases 94 times. FactCheck.org looked at this claim and found that Obama only voted for tax increases 54 times.
Cataloging some of these votes isn't cut-and-dried, and the exercise underscores how easily a campaign can spin the opponent's record. In the end, we listed [...]

Hey, maybe there's hope after all. It's the 4th of July, and Google, which often completely ignores holidays that have anything to do with the things that are responsible for our freedom, is actually recognizing the 4th in a positive fashion. Don't tell them though that those fireworks represent tools of war.
I'm shocked. I [...]
Holy Cow, Obama Flips on Iraq!
Barack Obama has stated in the past that he will immediately begin withdrawing troops from Iraq if elected President. That was one of his big selling points during the primary season. And now, like he's flip flopped on so many other issues, Obama's taking it back.
Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) promised primary voters a swift withdrawal [...]

I felt the following quote requires some further commentary…
I'm confused as to why any African American would be a Republican in this day and age.
— Robin Wright-Jones, (D) Missouri State Representative
With all due respect to Representative Wright-Jones, I can't understand why more blacks haven't jumped the Democrat ship.
Granted, with decades of vilification, I can understand [...]
Fighting al Qaeda And The MSM
Many of us (especially those of us who've received first-hand accounts from friends and relatives) understand that the media coverage of the war vice the reality on the ground are two entirely different things. To repeat misleading and discouraging war information to the public is not only dishonest, but it costs lives.
Four years ago this [...]
