The L.A. Times gets another surprising blessing from this site for at least being more “democratic” with its editorial pages by publishing a straightforward piece by John Bolton (former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations). An excerpt worth pointing out, though you should read the whole thing, follows. Obama used the Berlin Wall metaphor...

McCain Puts “Kick Me” on Urkel Obama
McCain… “Fortunately, Sen. Obama failed, not our military. We rejected the audacity of hopelessness, and we were right. Violence in Iraq fell to such low levels for such a long time that Senator Obama, detecting the success he never believed possible, falsely claimed that he had always predicted it. “Sen. Obama said this week...
Obama’s 26-year-old Speechwriter, No Wonder!
No wonder all of his speeches are shockingly naive and uninformed. I just stumbled on an article from back in January that Newsweek did on the 26-year-old toddler who writes Obama’s speeches, Jon Favreau (no, not that one). Not that I’m biased against youth (being a little over 10 years older), but when so...
Ich Bin Ein Beginner, Obama Spews People’s Party Bolshevik
Listen to this… “Now is the time to join together through constant cooperation and strong institutions and shared sacrifice and a global commitment to progress to meet the challenges of the 21st century.” Is it suddenly 1917 Petrograd again? Is anyone listening to this? Here’s the translation for those who don’t speak liberal. “Now...
Hard to Make Fun of Barry Obama? Nah.
There’s a surprisingly entertaining op-ed in the L.A. (Left Apologist) Times today by Joel Stein, about the wonder boy-nerd. I knew I was going to enjoy this one when he lobs the first volley… “…comedians have appeared on every news outlet to whine about how hard it is to make fun of Barack Obama....
Obama’s Grand Energy Plan…
Here’s the word for word on his latest ad… On gas prices, John McCain’s part of the problem. He and Bush support a drilling plan that won’t produce a drop of oil for seven years. McCain will give more tax breaks to big oil. He’s voted with Bush 95% of the time. Barack Obama...
Kenyan Economist: Stop The Aid To Africa!
There’s a incredibly insightful article in Spiegel about the damage foreign aid brings to third world countries in very plain language. These are things I and others have been saying for years, but when you have an economist from Kenya saying the same, maybe people will believe it now. The Kenyan economics expert James...
Ongoing Port Authority Incompetence, Are We Surprised?
This article on the ongoing fiasco at Ground Zero reminds me of one of my favorite lines in Deadwood… “I am a sinner who does not expect forgiveness… but I am not a government official!” The rebuilding of the World Trade Center, destroyed in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, won’t be completed until the...
Obama Truth Squads Suspend Free Speech in MO
Last Tuesday, CBS affiliate Channel 4 TV News in St. Louis reported that some Missouri sheriffs and prosecutors have formed a truth squad to target anyone who engages in misleading ad or statements about Senator Obama. Here’s the transcript of the lede on the CBS story: “Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign is asking Missouri...
