Second “Green” Firm Financed With “Stimulus” Money Invokes Massive Layoffs

As one comment said, “Who saw this coming?” Solyandra, Ener1 and now the newest addition to the Economic Reality Chopping Block. Amonix. Today, Fast & Furious not only refers to the DOJ arming Mexican drug cartels with American guns and ammo, but now also can be safely applied to the way Obama’s New “Green” companies [...]

Coleman: “You’re not going to repeal Obamacare”

Well, this is, shall we say, “juicy” and with a good chance of going viral. From Ricochet: By Ben Domenech Norm Coleman – the former senator from Minnesota and a prominent advisor for Mitt Romney – suggested over the weekend in an interview that no matter who the Republican nominee is, they are unlikely to [...]

Georgia Judge Denies Obama Lawyer’s Quashing Motion Over Records

With all of the hullabaloo over Mitt Romney’s “tax problems”, something far more important transpired in a Georgia court today. As reported by The Post Email: (site appears to be down at the moment) Atty. Orly Taitz informed The Post & Email moments ago that Georgia Administrative Hearings Judge Michael Malihi has denied Obama counsel’s [...]

Friday Fun (Early): Cougar Barbie

The Ultimate Mature Christmas Present.

Chaos and Violence at DC Occupy

Here is a good example of the Soros-funded, ACORN-run, Obama-directed Occupy version of Kristallnacht. These are scenes that the State Run Media will not show you, report on or even acknowledge.

Sorry OWSers. Even the Democrat National Convention Does Not Want You. (Maybe)

Well, here is something that should probably be filed under Friday Fun. But I would prefer not to pollute that barely-famous section with the likes of OWSers.

So Much For Arab Spring, Look Out For Sharia Winter

Not that anyone who has been paying any attention to the whole deadly circus in the Middle East is surprised by any of this, but it does belie the administration’s and media’s pathetic attempts to portray this as anything but a Sharia Domino Theory. From NewsMax: And [Abdul-Jalil] he laid out a vision for the [...]

ObamaCare Costs Finally Being Admitted: Sebelius Admits “No viable path” For CLASS Act

As more and more of ObamaCare’s costs and programs come to light, reality is setting in, even among it’s most ardent supporters, that it is unsustainable. From the Chairman Ryan’s House website: WASHINGTON – Today, House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan of Wisconsin issued the following statement regarding the Obama Administration’s decision to discontinue a [...]

GOP Candidate Bill Randall Campaign Sign Defaced With “KKK” Scrawling

Well, while hardly unexpected, it is little early for the Dems to be showing their true colors (pun intended). GOP Candidate Bill Randall, who is running for the House in North Carolina against incumbent Brad Miller, had a campaign sign of his defaced with a scrawling of “KKK”, as well as having his image defaced [...]

Reps. Markey and Barton Ask FTC To Investigate Facebook

Well, it was inevitable. And with all of the hullalaboo over the new Facebook layout, I assume these two congress critters thought this was the perfect time to pounce on Facebook. More “man on a white horse to save the day” type of stuff. We have seen this movie too many times already. From The [...]

Gov. Perdue: Suspend Elections for Two Years So That Congress Can Focus on Jobs

Well, I figured that sooner or later, this trial balloon would be floated about. And it is also not too surprising that they used perhaps the most clueless governor in the nation to launch it. From The Daily Caller: As a way to solve the national debt crisis, North Carolina Democratic Gov. Beverly Perdue recommends [...]

Michelle Obama’s Food Stalinists: “No Fries For You!”

Well, I suppose a lot of people will be crossing The Olive Garden and Red Lobster of their list of where to take their kids for a fun Friday night dinner or weekend birthday party meal. I wonder if Chuck E. Cheese’s will be next? It is getting to the point where hoarding Ore-Ida fries [...]

Obama: “If you love me, you will help me pass this bill.”

Yes, he went here. Totally and 100%. (Hat tip to Red State) I do not think all of the quantum physics equations in the world could come up with a resolution as to how to fit this man’s ego within the known universe. Or as Doug Powers puts it: What Obama purposefully fails to mention [...]

Friday Fun: Kitten Pile Wrestling

As one person said, “If Kitten Pile Wrestling was an Olympic event, more people would go.”

Classic Drudge Headline

Not much else needs to be said…

Ron Paulbot Puts Out “Have You Ever Slept With Rick Perry?” Newspaper Ad

Well, that did not take long. Only this time, it came from the other side. From Salon.com: An Austin Ron Paul supporter has taken out a full-page ad in the local alt weekly newspaper seeking any “stripper … escort … or ‘young hottie’” who has slept with Rick Perry, part of his single-minded jihad against [...]

Gallup: Obama’s Poll Numbers On Economy At 26%. Lowest Ever.

Ouch. I am not a big one for polling organizations like Gallup that generally only poll “adults” (which can mean literally anything as far as methodology goes), as compared to outfits like Zogby and Rasmussen that poll “registered voters” and “likely voters”, which is a much more accurate methodology. On the other hand, when ANY [...]

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack: Food Stamps Are An Economic “Stimulus”

Well, I suppose we can chalk this one up next to Pelosi’s claim that unemployment benefits “create” jobs. Video courtesy CNS News: So, I suppose he is saying the non-food stamp dollar that I spend does not “generate” the same amount of economic “activity”? He seems to forget that the money being taken from the [...]
