REFLECTIONS

The social media website called Twitter has constant outages which are caused mainly from its popularity. When this site goes down it puts up a “whale” graphic apologizing for the inconvenience to the users. There was created, from President Obama’s own 2008 campaign signage, an display to explain his administration: See bccohan and @SusanAnneHiller.

3 years ago Sen. Obama was accusing Gen. Petraeus of lying.  Oh he never came out directly with the words.  He just said the General’s testimony was not true.  Now he is depending on the General to save his behind in Afghanistan. http://deathby1000papercuts.com/2008/09/petraeus-report-what-obama-and-biden-said-one-year-ago/ Gen. Patraeus of course is an officer and a gentleman.  More than [...]

After all, I think the Vice-President Biden is an idiot.

Over the weekend I tweeted my impression that Obama wants to lose the November mid-terms.  His leftist ideology makes him utterly incapable of the needed economic reforms to revive our economy.  The economy will continue to sink, he knows it and needs a fall guy.  The brand new GOP Congress will be that fall guy.  [...]

In all the years Ms. Noonan worked for President Reagan did she ever listen to him?  In her latest journey to irrationality she claims Carter wasn’t responsible for the hostage crisis.  Dumbfounding.  Never mind that Carter helped the Aytalloah seize power in Iran.  As Ms. Noonan’s old boss pointed out many times, weakness is a [...]

It may be hot in Cleveland but its tv-pilot needs development, of course, don’t they all? I thought the best scene was at the end of the show where the four actresses chatted on their front patio. The best line went to Betty White when she was ask why eighty-year-olds wear track-suits: “When we are [...]

Perhaps, it is too late to built that border-wall along the southern border of the USA. With the tone of last night presidential oval-office speech on why we need to rid ourselves of fossil fuels for ‘green’ power and extortion for an oil-spill slush fund managed by whom, I wonder if these are the final [...]

I am sure you have all heard about Obama’s recommendations for the Gulf, and the review panel saying “those aren’t the recommendations we signed off on”. What is being lost here is the implications of one of the biggest of the recommendations. Obama wants to stop all offshore drilling for six months. Sound good? Sound [...]

Instapundit is far too libertarian for me to completely endorse.  But when he is right, he is brilliantly succinctly right.  This is why people chiding Israel for poor PR miss the point. It doesn’t really matter what they do, since the press will just lie about it. That seems an argument for much less restraint, rather [...]
