Stormy Whether

Yup. Not a misspelling. Really.

What this refers to is that the White House counter-terrorism adviser, John Brennan, stormed out of the Washington Times offices after being asked questions regarding what he previously said about individuals who become terrorists

What we have here, is failure to keep control of one’s temper. Apparently. For someone in a high level position who is supposed to be consistent regarding our nation’s security.

Right To Work

It brings jobs from those that tax those businesses until they can’t take it anymore.

Check it out. Is your state a Right To Work state? Is Maryland?

Apology Tour Right Here

The AP reports on our latest pitch to the UN which is an admission of human rights shortcomings – by the U.S.

The 29-page “Universal Periodic Review” report was submitted to the Human Rights Council on Friday but was not published until Monday. Members of the council, which the United States joined only last year, are required to submit reviews of their rights records. The report was the first produced by the U.S. State Department.

President Barack Obama decided that the U.S. should run for a seat on the council.

The report’s findings were cautiously welcomed by human rights activists but will likely draw fire from conservatives who opposed joining the council. They said the U.S. should not be judged by countries with poor human rights records.

The administration sought to rebuff such criticism in the report, saying its participation in the review was not an acknowledgment “of commonality with states that systematically abuse human rights.”


… Kinda gets you right here, doesn’t it?

License Fee To Blog?

Philadelphia says, $300. Pay up.

I see it as an imminent threat to free speech. Kind of like wanting to regulate guns.

If they get you on a list, they can shut you down if they don’t like what they see or hear.

Post their pictures (of those Philly Cheese Takes) as the enemies to our U.S. Constitution that they are.

Otherwise, it could spread elsewhere.

U.S. Court Rules Against Obama’s Stem Cell Policy

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A U.S. district court issued a preliminary injunction on Monday stopping federal funding of human embryonic stem cell research, in a slap to the Obama administration’s new guidelines on the sensitive issue. (more …)

How about that? You can’t always get what you want, Mr. President.

What The Iraq War Cost(s) Us

According to the CBO, when comparing the Iraq War costs against our deficit – it wasn’t much.

But don’t take my word for it. Read it and scroll down to almost halfway.

It isn’t that I am justifying the Iraq war. I’m not.
However, what really stands out is the DEFICIT !!

Since I understand math, if we keep the amount of the Iraq war cost the same and shrink the deficits of 2009 and 2010 to equal that of 2008 – then those little blue boxes will be far more significant that this picture seems to give you now.

So, the lesson here is that $709 billion is not an insignificant amount of money.

But it looks that way considering how much the current administration has been (over)spending.

This Is A Test At Ground Zero

Be sure to watch the video. Afterwards, tell us who the bigots are.

(hint: Mosque supporters, not athletic, rant against Jews then beat an Israeli supporter.)

Atlas Shrugs has Video

Of (guess who?), drum roll …

GROUND ZERO MOSQUE IMAM FEISAL’S EXTREMISM EXPOSED: IN HIS OWN WORDS: “the United States has more blood on its hands than al Qaida,” Elimination of Israel, the N-Word, “Fahrenheit 911”

Yup. Gotcha, Imam.

Unemployment Spread

Similar to a zombie movie.

But. This isn’t fiction.

Administration Getting Into The Water

This can’t be good. An Executive Order, no less.

More from Michelle Malkin on this.
