Than look at ACORN. Yet, the hits just keep on coming. There is another tape out from James O’Keefe of filmmaker James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles going to ACORN offices in an expose of the lengths to which ACORN workers will go to assist in setting up an underage prostitution ring. Here [...]

* Bumped Up *
And I am not talking about all of the acorns all over my yard (the raccoons and squirrels are having a field day!). Nope, I am talking about ACORN, Obama’s former employer. They never fail to disappoint in the level of hubris and entitlement they bring, which can be downright [...]

“I will continue to say what I’ve said before. You hear in this debate, you hear analogies, you hear references to, you see pictures about and depictions of individuals that are truly stunning, and you hear it all the time. People — imagine five years ago somebody comparing health care reform to [...]

Here are impressions from all over the ‘net, even bloggers like the yoyo Taylor Marsh and sensible shoes columnist Ruth Marcus:
“The Obama magic has faded,” Glenn Reynolds for the The New York Post:
The Obama invincibility that was so much in evidence then seems to have lost its power. People can argue the [...]

You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it [...]

Of letting you know when it is time to be still and just be. I say this not just from being a bit bleary eyed after staying up late to watch my beloved Yankees. No, I got up Sunday morning as always, thinking about what I was going to write today, then I [...]

Yes, indeedy - another videotape courtesy of James O’Keefe, the “pimp,” and his “prostitute girlfriend,” Hannah Giles, in a Philadelphia ACORN office. Only this time, O’Keefe is firing back at the ACORN employee who claimed she showed them the door tout de suite. But first, a round-up about this latest video at the [...]

Nope, I am not talking about Anita Dunn this time. Ron Bloom is the latest Obama Czar (Manufacturing) to quote Mao as an authority. And just wait to see which quote he uses from Mao. Oh, and he disses that whole free market thing, too. See [...]

Talk about back to the future. Here I thought we were looking at a repeat of the lousy Presidency of James Earl Carter and Barack Obama goes ahead and starts emulating Tricky Dick Nixon. Let’s give Obama his due–he’s a better talker (as long as TOTUS is working) than Nixon and he certainly [...]

That is basically the excuse Rep. Maxine Waters (of ACORN-loving fame) uses for why Rep. Rangel is not going to have any comeuppance for his tax fraud in this article, “Rep. Waters: ‘Many Members’ Suffer From Disclosure Problems Like Rep. Rangel.” Holy smokes.
BONUS look back at Rep. Charlie Rangel. Remember when [...]

Oh, boy. This doesn’t look good for ACORN, not that much does these days. You may recall that Dale Rathke, one of the two founders of ACORN, had embezzled $1 million dollars, according to this NY Times article. That became the widely accepted amount, not that that embezzlement stopped our government from [...]

I stumbled upon the latest Reality Check brought to you by WhiteHouse.gov. Apparently the Obama administration is still obsessing over FOX news, this time targeting Glenn Beck. They took Beck to task, providing the “REALITY” to his “RHETORIC”. I provide the *ACTUAL REALITY*.
What topic do they take issue with? His comments on Afghanistan? Health Care? [...]

That would be Secretary of State Hillary Clinton speaking out about violence against girls and women at the U.N. After the ad nauseum speeches of President Obama, this is an incredibly refreshing change, even though the subject is intense, to say the least. Still, this one has substance, and isn’t “just words.” [...]

I don’t know about you, but I could use a day off from all of the rancor of politics - ACORN, Health Care Reform, Iran, Afghanistan, all of that. It will still be there tomorrow (unfortunately). So, since I’m feeling pretty good - my beloved Yankees are the AL East Champions, completing a [...]

Harry Reid has finally grown a backbone, it seems. His timing for it, though, is disturbing, to say the least. When he was first picked for Senate Majority Leader, I thought that maybe he really would be a stand up guy, a fighter, as his former boxing career would suggest. Well, he’s [...]

Well, it’s about damn time - again. Yes, Rep. Conyers has finally been persuaded - again - to investigate ACORN. Oh, yes, all the recent brouhaha about ACORN, all of the exposure from the faux pimp and prostitute, have FINALLY gotten the House Judiciary Chairman to get off his duff, and investigate ACORN, [...]

I think the recent race-baiting strategy of Obama (his are footprints in the sand) and his cronies backfired royally. Carter and many of Obama’s minions in the media went around casting every American who is questioning Obama’s reckless policies and his inability to communicate them in coherent terms (fired up, ready to go is not [...]

It has been very interesting to see ACORN’s response to the recent video stings of several offices. They seem to be in the denial phase. Or maybe it’s anger since they’ve threatened lawsuits.
What happens when they reach acceptance? Well, optimistically, they’d disband. Yeah, that’ll happen. What do other corrupt corporations, [...]
