• ‘Do You Believe Him?‘ New Film Attacks Obama’s Record on Israel

  March 4, 2012 at 3:57pm

  On this week’s Fox New Watch Sally Kohn, a political commentator, had the nerve to proclaim that Pres. Obama is “pro-Israel” to which both Monica Crowley’s and my jaws hit the floor! This self-described “grassroots strategist” and “pragmatic radical” is, like so many on the left, in total denial about themselves and what most liberal secular progressives are all about.

• ‘How Dare You?!’: Alan Colmes, Mike Gallagher Get Into Shouting Match Over Occupy Wall Street-Tea Party Comparison

  November 19, 2011 at 7:50am

  You know, Rush likes to say “I know liberals. Liberals lie.” Colmes is an admitted liberal. Colmes lies. Only question that remains is if Colmes knows he is lying or refuses to actually go out and learn about what the reality behind OWS vs. the Tea Party movement.

  Tea Party = Fixing the system. End crony capitalism and government corruption. Champion individual rights and freedoms with strictly limited government that lives within it’s means.

  OWS = Destroy the system and replace it with a socialist/Marxist/communist style centralized control, big, all-powerful government.

• Cain Accuser May Come Forward to Tell Her Side of the Story

  November 2, 2011 at 10:00am

  There might be a better chance of believing the accusations if the sources being cited–bloomberg, jsonline, and motherjones–were not decidedly left-leaning ones. Since they are left-leaning, the possibility exists that they are trying to do to Cain what was done to Sarah Palin in 2008. In other words, are they, in fact, going after Cain because he does not fit the template of what an African-American in America should be?

• Former Reagan Economist and Ex-Ron Paul Staffer: Deregulation Does Not Spur Job Growth

  November 1, 2011 at 9:29am

  What Barlett is doing is applying the wrong logic. The logic that should be applied is this:

  1. Companies are in business to make money.

  2. Regulations will likely increase the costs of companies doing business.

  3. The more those regulations increase the cost of doing business, the higher a company’s break-even point–the point as which a company begins to make a profit–is.

  4. The higher the company’s break-even point is, the less likely it is that the company will be able to hire more employees.

  Two other points are being missed by Barlett. First, more regulations often mean that only larger companies have the necessary resources to comply with those regulations. As a result, smaller and new, startup companies are not able to enter the marketplace and/or compete successfully with larger, more well-heeled competitors.

  Second, the larger companies are better able to “lobby” the government. What will those companies lobby for? The regulations being written in such a way that they are favorable for them and/or harmful to their competition.

  It is for these reasons that the regulatory burden needs to be addressed to insure that they are not doing more harm than good, that they are not, in fact, suppressing competition in the economic marketplace.

• ‘Of Course I’m Not!‘ Michael Moore Adamantly Denies He’s Part of ‘The 1%’

  October 26, 2011 at 10:53am

  Isn’t it ironic how people like Moore and show biz stars, people who make many times what the average middle class makes, or, in other words, people who have succeeded at free market capitalism, support OWS? Also, many of the OWS participants are either successful on their own or come from families that are successful. Could it be that the people behind OWS are playing on a sense of guilt among all of these people? Do they feel guilty that they are well-off but cannot bring themselves to give to charities or volunteer themselves to help others in need?

• Why Is the Government Now Recommending the HPV Vaccine for Boys?

  October 26, 2011 at 10:33am

  Why not teach our children about abstinence? It is 100% effective against the transmission of STDs and…wait for it…pregnancy.

• Keith Olbermann Blasts Fox News & Host: A ‘Political Whorehouse’

  October 26, 2011 at 10:29am

  Gee whiz!?!?!? And, here I thought that it was the democrat liberal secular progressives who thought that today’s woman can have it all…yet, look at his attitude:

  “He [OLBERPFFT] then directed his comments to host Camerota, saying that she has to leave her three children 4 AM [sic] to work at the “political whorehouse that is Fox News.””

  I guess in OLBERPFFT’s case the “today’s woman can have it all” attitude only applies if the woman’s politics runs to the hard left. That is hardly open-minded, open-armed and all embracing, is it?

• Climate Change Skeptic Rethinks Position After New Analysis?

  October 22, 2011 at 5:22pm

  Folks, the issue has never been “Is the climate warming?” Over the eons the climate has warmed and cooled many times. Besides, if you only look at the period from 1800 to today, the only conclusion you can draw is that the climate IS warming.

  However, what climate alarmists don’t want you to consider is just how much of the warming that has occurred since 1800 is due to the ending of the events that caused the period known as the Little Ice Age (LIA) in the first place.

  IIRC-The 2 most prominent causes of the LIA was increased volcanic activity–think volcanic erupts larger than Mt St Helens in 1980 occurring yearly or more often–combined with decreased solar activity–the sun was not emitting as much thermal energy to warm the climate. The climate received a double whammy, if you will.

  Also during the 1800s, there were two particular low points. One was the summer of 1816 which has become known as the year without a summer and 1850 which is seen as the last period of deepest cooling of the LIA. Since then, the causes of the LIA have eased and, guess what, the climate has warmed.

  This brings us to the real question of the debate. “Are human activities such as burning fossil fuels causing the climate to change in unusual and potentially catastrophic ways?” And, the answer is, “Nobody knows for sure.”

• ‘Plantation Overseer’: Sportscaster Bryant Gumbel Turns Racial While Blasting NBA Commish

  October 19, 2011 at 3:26pm

  Sorry, but Gumbel ain’t no legend. Anyone who drops racism at the drop of a hat is not a legend. He is left-wing liberal secular progressive who will do or say anything to put them down so as to build himself up.

• See the Fight Video that Led a Hockey Player to Call Himself ‘Classless’

  October 14, 2011 at 5:12pm

  In reply to pizzaguypa.

  Like it or not, NHL hockey is a tough game. But, the code is that if you decide to run one of the other team’s top players–Beagle had just run at Penguins Defenseman Kris Letang, knocking Letang’s helmet off in the process and, I believe, was about to be penalized for it–you had better be prepared for someone from that team coming after you, which is what Asham did. Asham was coming to the aid of Letang and letting Beagle know he was not going to get away with running Letang.

  But, what is out of line is Ovechkin speaking out the way he did. This is a player who has taken highly questionable runs at other players. Hard hits that often are let go by the referees–though he did get penalized and later suspended for hitting into the boards, I believe, Chicago Defenseman Brian Campbell. What makes his comments out of line is that Ovechkin will deliver a hard hit…and then hide behind the skirts of his teammates.

  Ovechkin ain’t no Gordie Howe. HOFer Howe played a very hard-nosed game and did not shy away from fighting. Unlike Ovechkin, Howe was a real man. Howe is the namesake for the Howe Hat Trick; a goal, an assist, and a fight.

  If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. Ovechkin needs to become a real man like Howe, first. He needs to fight opponents coming to protect their teammates after Ovechkin has run them instead of hiding behind his own teammates. Only then can he speak out about actions like Asham’s.
