Penn Monnbats About Free Speech

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

America continues to be the most amazing country on the face of the Earth. Where else can idiots and Moonbats rise up to superstardom and have millions of dollars and still be about as bright as Spicoli in Ridgemont High. How did Sean Penn manage to graduate a real high ...

Of Captain America and Tax Protests

Friday, February 19th, 2010

It's been just over a week now since the firestorm over Captain America #602 and the racist/tea party connection hit the internet and the news. I picked up a copy of Cap and gave it a read. It was my first comic book in over 10 years. Things have changed. ...

Brownbaggers

Friday, February 19th, 2010

I hear that the Progressives (they don't like being called "liberals" any more, which works for me as they don't believe in Liberty) have started a group to counter the Tea Party movement. They have picked the delightfully witty and appropriate term "brownbagger". I had to look it up in ...

Socialism Poll - Few Surprises

Monday, February 8th, 2010

According to a recent Gallup Poll, 53% of Democrats have a positive view of socialism. Why is anyone surprised at this? Seriously, look at who the Democratic voters have sent to Washington in recent years: Barbara Boxer, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Al Franken, Amy Klobuchar, Dennis Kucinich, Chuck ...

Not So Pure Meghan McCain

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

Generally I don't pay attention to Meghan McCain. Currently she is about as relevant as Cindy Sheehan. Well, maybe she is not as relevant as Cindy Sheehan. Today, however, Meghan kinda stuck her foot into it with her responses to a Republican "purity" test. I don't put much stock into ...

Senator-elect Brown

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Looks like Brown is set to win the day in Massachusetts and break the Dems choke-hold on the Senate. Currently ahead by 5 points.

ObamaCare on the Rocks

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

There is some good news coming out of the Capitol. The Health Care Takeover (ObamaCare) is hanging on by a thread. I like what the Hill reported: "We've got to get a bill that's more compatible to the House," Ways and Means Committee Chairman Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday. "Forget ...

It Could Be Laughable

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

James Carville, speaking on the Tony Kornheiser Show, had this to say (from

Cheers, Norm

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

You better watch out You better not pout You better not cry I'm telling you why ObamaCare is coming to town. The disastrous takeover of our health insurance system by government is impending, complete with closed-door backroom deals and no bi-partisanship or GOP input. The slow creep to serfdom is going into hyperdrive as Obama ...

Obama Political Failure #30

Monday, December 21st, 2009

And now a message from the Obama Administration Peanut Gallery: "In the long run we can't continue to spend as if deficits don't have consequences, as if waste doesn't matter, as if the hard earned tax dollars of the American people can be treated like monopoly money, that's what we've seen ...

Obama Like Spock?

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

I've been unaware of the comparisons between Mr. Spock of Star Trek and Barack Obama until this week. Obama is like Spock? Go figure! Obama is a science geek? On what basis do they come to that conclusion? Okay, disclaimer time. I've never liked Spock. He has always been my least ...

How Many Congressional Districts Does Your State Have

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

How many Congressional Districts does your state have? According to Barack Obama's "where's the money" website at recovery.gov, a lot more than you think. I have Chris Baker of KTLK-FM to thank for the inspiration for this piece. On my drive into work I heard him discussing how well the stimulus ...

National Debt Breaks $12 TRILLION Mark

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

November 16, 2009, is a day to remember. It is the day that the national debt broke the $12 Trillion mark. That's right, TWELVE TRILLION DOLLAR. This means that the national debt has grown faster and bigger under Obama than under any of his predecessors. How's that for change? Since the ...

Obama Political Failure #28

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

I've been "missing in action" for most of November, trying to figure out what I want to write for nanowrimo, and missing out writing on too many current events. The Obama Administration has determined that Khalid Sheik Mohammad, mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, will be tried in a criminal court in ...

Make Mine Partisanship

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

I got a laugh out of the piece "Conservatives Roar; Republicans Tremble" by Vandehei and Allen over on Politico. It's good reading, but misses the mark on what is happening between the Republican leadership and the conservative base. Many top Republicans are growing worried that the party's chances for reversing ...

Say No to Dede in NY-23

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Michelle Malkin has asked the question: "Can the Republican establishment hear conservatives now?" in regards to GOP support of the hard-Left "Republican" Dede Scozzafava. Unfortunately, I think the answer is "No". The GOP would rather be French. By that I mean, the GOP is happy if they can beat other ...

Obama Political Failure #27

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

I can hear him now, sitting in the Oval Office, whispering to himself, "Oh Constitution, how I violate thee, let me count the ways…" When Obama was sworn into office, that included an oath to uphold the Constitution and our laws, all of them, not just the ones he thinks ...

Make Mine Freedom

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

I am finding that this 1948 Cold War video is as relevant today as it was 60 years ago, especially when we have admitted Marxists being appointed to jobs in the Obama Administration, including Anita Dunn, who admits that one of her two favorite philosophers is Chairman Mao (mass-murdering dictator ...

Obama Political Failure #26

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

I can't believe what I am reading today in the news. Barack Obama has agreed, in principle, to allow Russian weapons inspectors into our nuclear missile bases. No mention is made in the article that the U.S. would be able to inspect and count their missiles and warheads. The Obama ...
