Headline: 10 Places Where a Gallon of Gas Is More Expensive Than in the US

Media hacks certainly weren’t as charitable to Bush back in the day gas prices were lower, but I digress. From the headline story on Yahoo Finance [emphasis my own]: If it’s been a while since you filled up, you might be in for a rude awakening the next time you visit the gas station. Prices [...]

Team Obama challenge: Neutralize the only job growth in the country (and Rick Perry, too)

We can’t have private sector jobs. That leads to less welfare! Fewer bodies on the food stamp rolls! All beneficence should flow only from our liberal hands!  Texas accounts for 45% of job creation in the entire country. Just let that sink in: we can blame one big old bubba red state for nearly half of the job [...]

Change: Americans won’t be able to use the a/c. Or the dryer. Or lights after dark.

How hot is it where you are? Hope you enjoy one of the last summers with air conditioning. Obama has fulfilled one of his campaign promises: skyrocketing electric prices. Of course he won’t mention it that way before the ’12 election. He’ll just say he’s doing his part to reduce our collective carbon footprint in [...]

A hopeychangey graph

As someone who won’t receive any of that touted “Obama money,” I cringe every time I gas up the car. But as Mark Hemingway notes, Obama shrugs: Now obviously turmoil in the Middle East has something to do with our current astronomical gas prices, but keep in mind that by this point in the Bush [...]

Shades of Jimmy

Headline says it all: Obama will go down in history as the president who lost Egypt. Jimmy Carter will go down in American history as “the president who lost Iran,” which during his term went from being a major strategic ally of the United States to being the revolutionary Islamic Republic. Barack Obama will be [...]

Oil disaster and what does he do?

Appoint a gaggle of lawyers and environmentalists, of course.  They’ll have all the answers. (One, primarily: no more drilling! Let them suffer and walk!) On Obama’s BP Commission Sham: there are two scientists, no engineers, and no real representatives of the oil and gas industry. The panel is primarily made up of lawyers, environmentalists and career politicians. [...]

60

Days, that is. Unbelievable pictures here, h/t Instapundit. Meanwhile, Dear Leader kicks ass on the golf course for five hours.  Of course, yachting is out.  Michael Barone: Obama’s thuggery useless in fighting spill.  He writes: Then there is Obama’s decision to impose a six-month moratorium on deepwater oil drilling in the Gulf. This penalizes companies with [...]

Even coffee won’t help at this point tab dump

Three cups in and the fog hasn’t lifted. Some Steyn to get you going, h/t Jen-Ru: The lessons of a Jewish Cemetary.  Steyn witticisms, eloquently written, and profoundly moving, all rolled into one. No dead cat bounce: Obama approval drops to 41% in Rasmussen.  Ed Morrissey writes that if speechifying won’t save Obama, nothing will. Say [...]

Friday various and sundry

First, for your viewing pleasure via Hot Air: Allahpundit links to a damning Obama cause-and-effect from Byron York who explains why O found “asses to kick” when he did.  Also via Hot Air, guess who plans to sue Arizona over the immigration law?  Oops.  Hilary let the cat out of the bag overseas. Re British [...]

Need a laugh?

I do after another oily Obama evening.  I lucked out, though, and just read commentary of the abysmal speech because I didn’t realize it wouldn’t air live in a different time zone. Lesson learned. He had a tough row to hoe to start: PPP released a poll before the speech in which a majority of voters [...]
