Minnesota’s long-running Senate election battle is finally over and Democrat Al Franken is the winner. The rest of us lose, big time. Rarely has a less-qualified, more cartoonish imp gained entrance to “the world’s most prestigious deliberative body,” as Senators like to refer to their base of operations. Franken makes President Obama look experienced and dignified by comparison, no doubt [...]

Representative Michelle Bachmann nails it on cronyism in D.C.:
OK all you global warming, climate change enthusiasts. The far right-wing CBS News has blown the whistle on a Washington cover-up much more important than Watergate. Days before the House approved Obama’s Cap and Trade legislation, an EPA administrator’s report doubting the science used to justify wrecking America’s energy [...]

John Boehner says “the American people expect us to know what’s in this bill before voting on it.” Not if the goal is to pass something before anyone knows what it is:
Beginning January 20, 2009, President Barack Obama has been a man in a hurry. First, Obama pushed for passage of the American Recovery and [...]

The Marines know…
In less than a week, President Obama went from “we shouldn’t meddle” in Iranian affairs to “outrage” over the harsh treatment of protesters. Well, which is it? Of course, focus groups and polling data put the words on Obama’s teleprompter, so watch for him to change positions faster than Anna Nicole Smith. He’s [...]

The Pentagon has released the findings of “an internal military investigation into a U.S. airstrike in western Afghanistan” that killed a bunch of friendlies, according to McClatchy Newspapers. It seems that when Afghan and U.S. Marines, aided by four F-18s, couldn’t dislodge several hundred Taliban fighters, someone called in “Big Mo,” a B1-B bomber capable [...]

Like most new presidents, Barack Obama promised to be transparent and honest with the American people. To my continuing amazement, most Americans believed him. Until he actually began implementing policy decisions, my guess is that 60% of voters would have purchased Florida swamp land from our smooth talking leader. Now, two days short of five months into Obama’s presidency, thinking [...]

Americans are among the world’s best educated citizens. Our long and proud history of freedom of the press means we well-educated people have wide-ranging access to news at home and abroad. The Internet has increased the flow of information by leaps and bounds. So riddle me this: Why are so many Americans in the dark about the Global [...]

Just when I thought Barack Obama had set an enduring record for stupid statements, just yesterday he raised the bar yet again. Within a fortnight of declaring America one of the world’s “largest Muslim countries,” an easily disproved assertion, our Commander-In-Blunder was at it again. Referring to Iran’s presidential election, Obama said, “We are excited [...]

Cronyism is as old as politics, but the practice is especially repugnant in a Democratic Republic like America. All incoming administrations pledge to reject it, yet most fall prey to influence peddling, donor protection and assorted graft. Although President Obama has promised to govern openly and honestly, his recent firing of Inspector General Gerald Walpin betrays [...]
