Razzle dazzle

To cover the self-admitted “political folly” of voting for Obamacare, what should poor Democrats Socialists do?  Razzle-dazzle, of course. James Carville to Obama: repackage your economic plan. Heh.  I’m not sure you can repackage something quite so stinky: according to the Health and Human Services Secretary of Texas, Obamacare will cost our state almost 20 [...]

Can you see Michelle singing “Don’t Cry for Me?”

Not so much.  But we’re headed for Argentina-style disaster.  From the Washington Examiner, United States of Argentina.  What the United States government will do in the future may be in question, but we need not look far to find past examples of countries unwilling to get their finances in order. Consider Argentina. In 1914, it [...]

My reps don’t represent me, either.

Great song via Instapundit.

Father must pay the court costs of the freaks who protested at his son’s military funeral. Yes, really.

I saw this yesterday and my blood boiled: Marine’s dad ordered to pay protesters’ court fees–$16,510 to be exact. The protesters are none other than Fred Phelps and his merry band of inbred family members who protest at military funerals with hateful, vile signs.  In full disclosure, I admit to a special contempt* of Phelps [...]

Who knew? Maxine is conservative!

Tea Party protester arrested for threats to Representative?

Nope. After a week of media “reports” on the threats to Democrat Socialists and their ilk for socializing one-sixth of our economy, the first arrest comes from … wait for it… a crazy who threatened a REPUBLICAN House member and his family … and called him “greedy.” For opposing Obamacare. Let me wager a guess, just [...]

Pogue-in-Chief Pep Talk

What do you do when you’re sinking in the polls?  Act like a real President should.  How incredibly sad that we know he doesn’t mean a damn word of it: The United States of America does not quit once it starts on something. You don’t quit, the American armed services does not quit. We keep at [...]

OMG the movers arrive in a month?! tab dump

Forgive the light posting from a slightly stressed out military wife.  That season is upon us: PCSing.  Or, for the uninitiated, Permanent Change of Station.  Last time, pjToddler was but a dream.  Now the reality of moving cross-country with a toddler who thrives in routine when we have yet to find a place to live has [...]

It’s intentional, Peggy.

Noonan’s column in this morning’s WSJ compares Washington powers-that-be to passers by who see the angry hive and decide to poke it with a stick.  She begs the “[t]he administration [which] is full of people who are so bright, and led by one who is very bright” to STOP. POKING. THE. COUNTRY. WITH. THE. DAMN. STICK. [...]

Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Or in this case, the foreclosure or the modification leading to default? From the WaPo: Obama readies steps to fight foreclosures, particularly for unemployed. Why worry about the economy and the lack of jobs, right?  Two years of unemployment lined up, free healthcare, and now–you don’t have to pay for your house, either? How inconvenient that [...]
