Virgin Galactic ‘spaceship’ crashes during test; Will ‘eco’ space vacation hopefuls ask for their down-payments back?
Filed Under Environment, Science & Nature | 7 Comments
More than 700 people, including Leonardo DiCaprio, have paid up to a quarter million dollars for a suborbital flight aboard Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic spaceship. There has been delay after delay, and eventually I’m guessing most of them will ask for their money back. Branson’s group isn’t even close to a successful test at the […]

Hillary Clinton lauds ‘common sense’ and ‘compassion’ of Dem who called Kay Hagan’s GOP opponent ‘Uncle Tom’ Tillis
Filed Under Politics | 13 Comments
A Democrat in North Carolina who is running for a U.S. House seat was campaigning for Sen. Kay Hagan’s re-election over the weekend and called her GOP opponent Thom Tillis “uncle Tom”: Tillis is white, as is Hagan, but that never stopped a desperate Dem from playing a ridiculous race card when the chips are […]

Be afraid! They look like they were reliving fond memories of a three-way with Saul Alinsky back in ’71. On a related note, Bill Clinton yesterday wished his wife a happy birthday: .@HillaryClinton 43 years after meeting in the Yale library, I'm wishing you a Happy Birthday over the internets! #TechSavvy #HBD — Bill Clinton […]

Even though there’s little that can damage the country more than Obama and the Dems have, especially in Obama’s first two years, this kind of talk about Jeb Bush is nauseating. What the GOP money machine says: “Let’s nominate Jeb Bush in 2016!” What I hear: “We might as well go ahead and have Hillary […]

I’m just loving the excuses Obama-supporting Dems are coming up with to explain why Obama can’t be anywhere near them (“political survival” not among the excuses because it’s too honest). This one’s from Sen. Jeanne Shaheen who is trying to salvage her re-election in New Hampshire: Shaheen: Obama's Too "Busy" to Campaign For Me via […]

Geography we much: Al Sharpton being Al Sharpton, part XXII
Filed Under Media, Politics | 4 Comments
Last night, talking about the shooting in Canada, Al Sharpton once again proved that there is no “off” position on his genius switch. Oops, did I say “off”? I meant “on”: Tonight he’ll probably be referring to Ottawa as “Ottumwa.” By the way, that clown is helping choose the next Attorney General nominee. Sleep well, […]

Stay classy, desperate Dems
Filed Under Politics | 13 Comments
Down in Texas the Democrats have a soon to be former candidate for Governor saying her disabled opponent is an enemy of disabled people and that he might want to ban mixed marriages in spite of the fact that his wife is Hispanic. If that’s not nutty enough, in N.C., some Kay Hagan supporters are […]

The Ebola funding science is un-settled
Filed Under Health Care, Politics | 7 Comments
A few days ago a former NIH head said this about the reason there is no Ebola vaccine: Former NIH Head: If not for budget cuts, we might already have an #Ebola vaccine. Funding for vaccine was cut in half http://t.co/UpDL5YTbgX — Steven Greenhouse (@greenhousenyt) October 18, 2014 Government officials and “researchers” blaming a lack […]

So the NIH was ‘under-funded’ and couldn’t pay for Ebola vaccine research, eh?
Filed Under Politics, Science & Nature | 28 Comments
Now that Ebola is in the U.S., Democrats with no shame are blaming GOP “funding cuts.” That claim is not only total BS, but at a glance it appears the NIH has been over-funded if anything. The Free Beacon uncovered nearly $40 million worth of NIH expenditures of dubious societal value. Some examples: For instance, […]

Michelle Obama’s ‘Turnip’ Vine provides sufficient distraction from other grave problems
Filed Under Politics | 16 Comments
Considering ISIS, Ebola and all sorts of other major problems all Dems are talking about right now is how awesome this is (seriously, they’re wetting themselves over it), the White House knows exactly what kind of shiny objects distract their base: Hey, @Alphacat. The First Lady wants to know… #TurnipForWhat? https://t.co/WL7jCellbC #AskTheFirstLady #TD4W — The […]
