Bay of Pigs redux? Russian warship’s unexplained visit to Cuba
Filed Under Politics, World News | 19 Comments
For some reason, this sounds awfully familiar: Putin lightly taunting The One no doubt: A Russian warship was docked in Havana Wednesday, without explanation from Communist Cuba or its state media. The Viktor Leonov CCB-175 boat, measuring 91.5 meters (300 feet) long and 14.5 meters wide, was docked at the port of Havana’s cruise ship […]

Just when you thought HHS couldn’t get more embarrassing and desperate

Because nothing says “quality, affordable health care” hijacking a meme and making it even worse than the original: #GetCovered: http://t.co/CCIiQwqTtc, pic.twitter.com/aLgNi2Bq4l — HHS.gov (@HHSGov) February 26, 2014 Are the adults tied up and locked in a closet somewhere?

Dick Cheney: Obama would rather spend money on food stamps than the military
Filed Under Politics, War | 10 Comments
It’s quite simple really: If voters continue to elect and re-elect those who insist on turning America into an entitlement society, it must come at the expense of something else. Dick Cheney’s statement caused controversy, but he merely pointed out the obvious: Former vice president Dick Cheney went on Fox’s “Hannity” show last night to […]

Don’t go away mad, Piers, just go away
Filed Under Media | 16 Comments
As it turns out, you can’t wrongly infer that every gun owner in America is complicit in murder every time some monster shoots up a school or shopping mall and maintain any kind of ratings: Piers Morgan’s prime-time talk show has been cancelled with the journalist admitting the audience in the United States is getting […]

FLOTUS says what we’ve been thinking for years: ‘Ew!’
Filed Under Entertainment, Politics | 28 Comments
Thursday night, Michelle Obama appeared on The Tonight Show (now hosted by Jimmy Fallon) and participated in a sketch called “Ew!” This is a pretty good imitation of a kid’s reaction to a school lunch made under FLOTUS’ dietary guidelines: So eww http://t.co/t92Uh05Vob — Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) February 22, 2014 I’m not a huge fan […]

Vacation time: Fleeing to warmer climes
Filed Under Announcements | 15 Comments
Thanks to global warming or something, this winter has dragged on far to long and far too cold for my own liking. With that in mind, my family is temporarily evacuating to the tropics. For the most part it’ll be an “off the grid” vacay, but check that Twitter feed up there to the left […]

Heh: Pelosi’s ‘House Majority PAC’ bashes Obamacare in Florida race
Filed Under Health Care, Politics | 46 Comments
On the one hand, Nancy Pelosi claims Dems will be happy to stand tall for Obamacare in 2014. On the other hand, a Super PAC she’s involved with is running ads like this: With friends like the Democratic House Majority PAC, does Obamacare need enemies? The PAC is up with an ad defending Miami Rep. […]

Obama sums up his philosophy of the Executive Branch in 6 words
Filed Under Health Care, Politics | 11 Comments
“I can do whatever I want.” This pretty much says it all: President Obama “quipped” today during a visit to Monticello with the French president, “That’s the good thing about being president, I can do whatever I want.” I used that video in a post at Michelle’s site about yet another Obamacare mandate delay, but […]

Duuuuude: Obama’s Olympics interview & Bob Costas’ giant orb of obedience
Filed Under Politics, Sports | 9 Comments
It’s been a pretty trippin’ Olympics so far. President Obama was of course interviewed during the opening ceremony of the Olympics (otherwise known as “the games that take place as a background for NBC’s Obama interviews”), and from the look of things he’d been hanging out with the snowboarding team in the Choom Wagon: Obama […]

Lib spin on latest CBO report about Obamacare’s effect on jobs is a thing to behold
Filed Under Politics | 13 Comments
Hard to decide which is more pathetic: The fact that Media Matters even pushes this crap, or that they can count on so many of their moronic sheep to nod in the affirmative: Fox News couldn't be more wrong on the CBO report and what it means for jobs http://t.co/b7tcjAyOTS pic.twitter.com/iM2LGI5MuI — Media Matters (@mmfa) […]
