On November 5 on CNN, Florida Governor Charlie Crist told Wolf Blitzer that he didn’t back the $787 billion Obama stimulus bill. Crist has since said that it isn’t a flip flop when he says he supported the stimulus “in concept” but didn’t support the specific bill.
In essence he’s trying to have [...]

10.2! This is a definite threshold moment, and Obama can’t blame it on Bush any longer. Obama promised if we passed his stimulus package we would halt unemployment in its tracks. I said then, and again now, you can’t dig yourself out of a hole.
The unemployment rate rose from 9.8 to 10.2 [...]

Cross-posted on the new foreign policy blog Bombs and Dollars.
When Obama said that his stimulation package has created 1 million jobs, did he include Chinese jobs in the calculation?
China’s manufacturing sector expanded at its fastest rate in 18 months in October, the eighth straight month of expansion, and Obama just happens to have gotten back [...]

For those of us who are from the Northeast, we know what Mischief Night is. Essentially, the night before Halloween is a night to play some practical jokes on people, create a little havoc. Flaming bags of dog doo on the door step. Dog poo or shaving cream under the car door handle. Removing a [...]

You know, our job losses are bad enough without President Obama and now Senator Chuck Schumer lying about it all and making it sound even worse than it is. But this particular lie is a very particular lie, one that is aimed to make the presidency of George W. Bush the bad [...]

We said “Don’t pass the Generational Theft Act. It is laden with pork, most of it doesn’t actually kick in until, surprisingly, an election year, and it is basically a decades long wish list of Democrat wants, among others. We can’t back something that is going to mortgage the future of America’s children and grandchildren.” [...]

Yes, yes, I know, we are supposed to be boycotting The Politico for their idiotic lawsuit threat against The College Politico, but, they are the only one with the complete story and the information to match it up (others have some, but, not enough), so, I hope you’ll excuse this one lapse: Obama links civil [...]

This may shock many of my conservative fans, but I cannot remain quiet about my support for the singularly brilliant idea that Obama’s so-called science czar offered in the 1975 college textbook Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment. Birth control, it was theorized, could save the planet. I have to say that I wholeheartedly [...]

Of course, this Washington Times story is less than shocking, but, hey, all you Democrat supporters might want to take notice of the rank partisanship
After a two-week binge to meet President Obama’s 200-day goal, stimulus spending has plummeted once again – and the roller-coaster pace of spending has critics worried about how the money is [...]

No good news today for Obama’s sinking ship on the economy.
U.S. employers cut a fewer-than-expected 216,000 jobs in August, while the unemployment rate rose to a 26-year high, the government said on Friday in a report showing a still fragile labor market.
The Labor Department said the unemployment rate rose to 9.7 percent after dipping to [...]

What is the cost of three Canadian visitors a day? Fifteen million dollars in Obamabucks, apparently. Worse, this waste of money wasn’t something the president of “transparency” seemed disposed to let us easily discover. Still, the Boston Globe reports that $15 mil is the amount of so-called stimulus money that Obama allowed [...]

Today’s theme is brought to you by the word “consequences.” When dealing with Democrats/liberals/progressives, there are always consequences, the majority of which were never considered when calling for and/or implementing legislation/plans. Another case in point (h/t Blogs For Victory)
The Cash For Clunkers program is adding to the activity at treasurers’ offices all around South Dakota. [...]
