  Love the crocodile tears.

• Civil Rights Icon Falsely Refers to Obama as ’45th President’ During Inaugural Invocation

  January 21, 2013 at 6:41pm

  Obama will be forced to adopt a tactic he learned from his Muslim brother, Muhammad Ali, and employ his own version of the famous “Rope-A-Dope”, now called the “Hope-A-Dope”.

• House GOP Set to Pass Three-Month Debt Ceiling Extension: Is This a ‘Cave’ or Something Bigger?

  The requirement should have been to stop funding for both Congress and White House after March end till whenever a budget was passed – it should be not just the congressmen but also the President and their staffs. And no retroactive pay when a budget is passed.

  And make it apply on all future budgets as well.

  Throw in another condition that removes all exemptions to Obamacare rules for Congress as well as federal employees (or exemptions to unions and well connected entities by the HHS) and it will be fun watching the Dems and liberals vote this down.

• Latest in the Algeria Hostage Crisis: Admin Says It ‘Won’t Negotiate With Terrorists’ After Militants Demand Release of Blind Sheikh

  The Algerians did the right thing – if they had not struck that would only be the green light for more Islamic groups to seize more production facilities. They may not have had the skills or equipment of the SAS or the SEALS, but good on them for signalling exactly what they will do in the event of future terrorist acts – kill them. The hostages were most likely going to die anyway – better to be caught in crossfire than have your head lopped off on a YouTube video for all the world to see.

  I don’t understand this. I thought we had decimated al-Qaeda? I thought the current US government leader made that his signature accomplishment?

• A Job for the Ages: See Just How Much Obama Has Aged in 4 Years With Cool Interactive Picture

  January 17, 2013 at 6:58pm

  The Obama administration and the democrats are systematically destroying the private economy of this country. The federal government is consuming more and more of the private economy, the place where wealth is created. Unemployment, poverty and all the pathologies that go with that are on the rise. You like to point to debt added during the 8 Bush years but Barry and company have managed to beat him by 50% in only 4 years. At the current rate of spending adding $1T to the debt/yr he will have doubled the debt by the end of his term. Ask yourself this – what are we getting for all of that spending? Where is the money going? Do you see any evidence that it is doing anything to improve the condition of this country. Again unemployment and poverty are on the rise. Economic growth drives job creation and its so anemic that there is no way the economy will create enough jobs to meet the demand. Economic growth during the Bush years was twice what it is now. The labor force has shrunk and the number of people on welfare has increased. That’s not a good thing to most people. The personal cost will be staggering in lost futures, businesses that will never open, homes that will never be built, jobs that will never be had, poorer health, diminished lives and so many things that could have been and will never be. That’s where we’re headed and you right along with the rest of us.
