America’s Energy Policy Amounts To Treason

Posted on October 28th, 2009 by macaoidh

John Kerry is a liar and a tyrant, and Jim Inhofe does a nice job exposing him as such in this speech on the Senate floor debunking the global-warming hysteria Kerry backs in his nightmarish cap-and-trade bill now debuting in the Senate: But that’s just a prologue to a discussion of the putrescence that is [...]

45 Years Ago Today…

…aired perhaps the greatest political speech in American history. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXBswFfh6AY&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=en&feature=player_embedded&fs=1] That speech could be given today and remain just as valid as it was then. Where is the leader who will give that speech in 2009?

An Andrew Klavan Reprise…

Posted on October 23rd, 2009 by macaoidh

The Andrew Klavan On The Culture videos courtesy of PJTV are a gold mine of conservative analysis, but they’re also damn entertaining. If you’re not familiar with the series, here’s a sample: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7stz35gN44&hl=en&fs=1&] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRRy-QlQyUw&hl=en&fs=1&] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McwFYeQ5xek&hl=en&fs=1&] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sC6MnwknfmU&hl=en&fs=1&] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUwTyycRoCQ&hl=en&fs=1&] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWHgUE9AD4s&hl=en&fs=1&]

Where Do These Guys Get Off?

Posted on October 22nd, 2009 by macaoidh

Consider the following bits of news: 1. The Democrats in the U.S. Senate are scheming to avoid taking full blame for increasing the federal debt limit to $13 trillion, as the federal government’s runaway spending now has the national debt sitting at $11.95 trillion as of Tuesday and the current debt limit stands at $12.1 [...]

Playing By Their Rules

Posted on October 15th, 2009 by macaoidh

Now that Rush Limbaugh’s involvement in an ownership group attempting to purchase the St. Louis Rams has been terminated due to bad publicity surrounding “quotes” trumpeted by left-wing propagandists which were subsequently exposed as lies, I wonder – does it not allow us free rein to treat Limbaugh’s tormentors similarly? For example, I understand Jesse [...]

How To Win A Nobel Prize

Posted on October 9th, 2009 by macaoidh

The announcement this morning that His Holiness The One, Galactic President Barack Hussein Obama – mmm-mmm-mmm, has picked up a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts at, er, well, for his efforts, reminds me of an old Cajun joke, which goes like this… Thibodeaux, on his way to work every morning, drives past the sugar-cane [...]
