See, if a Republican had been involved in this gaffe, the MSM would be tearing them apart. Since it’s Obama? Not so much. Andrew Malcolm provides the 411
You know all those rusting bridges that President Obama wants to spend billions more dollars repairing to allegedly stimulate the economy?
He’s headed out to one today [...]

Unless something big happens, I do believe the GOP will start looking more towards Mitt Romney over Rick Perry, especially when we get things like this
Rick Perry went out on a limb Thursday by refusing to back off his support as Texas governor for granting in-state tuition to some of the children of illegal immigrants, [...]

Back on August first the whole country was waiting for the House of Representatives to raise the debt ceiling and offer a continuing resolution to prevent a feared government shutdown. That was done with the support of 95 Democrats who claimed they were desperate to prevent that shut down. (Relevant amendment)
However, in [...]

Well, if one’s vision is simply to dump money into a sector that cannot produce a product, and can only lose money at this time, along with pandering on other energy but not actually allowing it, one is going to go on a losing streak
President Barack Obama is racking up an impressive losing streak when [...]

There was a vote Wednesday on a temporary spending bill, and the narrative is that John Boehner has lost control of Conservative Republicans and Democrats are now in control of the process. How about the narrative that Democrats are so spending drunk that they cannot even cut a measly $1 billion?
The House stunned Republican leaders [...]
Status and marriage

Australian demographer Bernard Salt below is almost certainly right in saying that women still like to “marry up” and is also right to say that educational attainment is not the sole criterion of “up”. Many men have caught on to the education hoax and know they can do better financially in business. [...]

The Tuskegee Syphilis Study has been widely condemned as an example of American racism — and Leftists love it for that reason. It enables them to be “holier than thou”. THEY would never do such an evil thing! It is usually portrayed as the U.S. government infecting black men with syphilis.

Must be nice to be a member of the “in” crowd, the crowd of crony capitalists to whom President Obama has given so much of the taxpayer’s money. And not just money but positions of power in the government.
Take, for instance, Obama’s newest czar, Judith Faulkner, recently named Obama medical records [...]

Hey, remember when the media would spend hours talking about Bush when his approval rating dropped a bit? Anyhow
According to this McClatchy-Marist Poll, the president’s approval rating is at 39% among registered voters nationally, an all-time low for Mr. Obama. For the first time a majority — 52% — disapproves of the job [...]

“Since 1975,” a study of union violence says, there has been “more than 9,000 reports of union violence.” With that in mind, wouldn’t it scare you if you were told that your name and address would be made public knowledge if you were hired as a temporary or replacement worker during a [...]

Texas Redistricting: Forget About ‘Justice,’ Obama’s DOJ is ALL About Politics

Obama’s Department Of Justice claims that Texas redistricting is somehow “unfair” because Democrats have lost power. Therefore the DOJ is going to take the state to court over its new map. Yet, in Illinois, the Democrats have decimated Republican districts and slighted [...]

Anyone who thinks this is anything more than a raise taxes on everyone plan is deluded, and his liberal cheerleaders will suddenly realize that the old Democrat axiom “do you get a paycheck? You’re rich” is in play
It’s not just millionaires who’d pay more under President Obama’s latest plan to combat the deficit.
