Saturday night, “Saturday Night Live” opened with this sketch. Yes, that’s a comedian, pretending to be President Barack Obama, making jokes. Yes, that was stating the obvious. Unless you’re CNN, then you decide that these jokes are worthy of a fact-check. Do you remember CNN “fact-checking” when Tina Fey/Sarah Palin falsely stated (for effect) that […]

Sen. Tom Carper, a Democrat, demonstrates two of the big problems with Congress in this little clip. The first problem is that the US Code might as well be written in code. Is it any wonder that whenever the government decides to muck about in just about anything that the cost of that activity goes […]

Some Hollywood types have started a petition (because that’s what they do best) calling for the end of the prosecution of admitted child-rapist Roman Polanski. Here’s the gem of the article from Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein: "Hollywood has the best moral compass, because it has compassion," Weinstein said. I guess the “best moral compass” is […]

Democrats have suddenly discovered that it’s wrong to demonize their opponents. No. That’s not true. Democrats have suddenly discovered that it’s only wrong to demonize Democrats. That is true. After months of labeling opponents of President Obama’s free-spending ways as “un-American” and “evil-mongers,” the political left is worried that un-American evil-mongers might do something crazy.

It happens all the time. “Smart” people reveal themselves to be amoral, unethical fools as they look to curry favor among the enlightened Hollywood elite. Today’s case in point is Washington Post columnist Anne Applebaum who thinks that child rape isn’t anything to get worked up over as long as a famous director was the […]

Courtesy of Reason.com’s “Hit and Run” blog comes this story: A West Michigan woman says the state is threatening her with fines and possibly jail time for babysitting her neighbors' children. Lisa Snyder of Middleville says her neighborhood school bus stop is right in front of her home. It arrives after her neighbors need to […]

In an almost party-line vote, the Senate Finance Committee decided not to post the language of their health-care reform bill online. It’s not just that this move is an anathema to the open-government pledges that every politician claims to strive for when they’re up for re-election, it’s the absolute lameness of the excuse of why […]

Those are the words, when they come out of President Barack Obama’s mouth, should clue you in to the fact that he hasn’t said it before – he’s merely changing his mind. If you hadn’t noticed, the war in Afghanistan isn’t all unicorns and rainbows. There’s more than three months left in the year and […]

There was one issue that the fawning mainstream media didn’t bring up over the weekend as President Obama did the rounds of all the Sunday talk shows – except for “Fox News Sunday” – and that was the Obama administration’s outrageous behavior toward the democratic government of Honduras.
