We used to have a saying around the playground as wise-guy adolescents. “He’s tough ok, around the mouth”. This was generally used to describe a guy who was all talk, who would back off and cower to any half-baked bully who happened to come along. Striking simile to the Benighted One and his Clown College where it comes to the very first tenant of a President of the United States of America. This bunch are as inept as it gets. It is really tragi-comic to listen to this boob go in front of the cameras ‘and talk tough’. While he is pontifically pronouncing his ... Read Full Story

By Alan Caruba I can recall the bailout that Chrysler received in 1979. Jimmy Carter was President and the question of whether the government should save the nation’s third largest automaker was subjected to a lot of debate.

We’ve been talking about this for months now. They can’t say they weren’t warned. In their headlong rush for the LEMMING PRECIPICE of self-destruction, the DeMarxists were repeatedly told, “there is a price to be paid for your self-aggrandizing power grab and your arrogant disenfranchisement of the American TAXPAYER…and TAXPAYERS ARE VOTERS!” In their blind ideologue-driven hurry to enslave the freest society in the history of the world they forgot three salient facts. Fact – We fought to gain our freedom against immense odds and won. Fact – We continued the fight for freedom on every continent and on every sea on this planet ... Read Full Story
I cannot forgive the stupidity of then-President George W. Bush for allowing his vice president, Dick Cheney, to become his puppeteer. Bush went along with the lies and rhetoric of Cheney and his ego-starved cronies to approve the invasion of Iraq. That invasion may turn out to be the biggest threat our homeland may ever encounter.

Question: If Micheal Steele and Sarah Palin "went hiking together in the mountains," would that cause enough heads to explode that the Republican Party would be history? And what would take its place? Nothing. The rump Teabag Party forms comic but annoying armed riot squads, get rounded up in short order and sent to "prison," the new euphemism for Death Camp. Wall Street pops the champagne, toasting the perpetual rule of the Democratic...
