Obama sends troops to border – Krauthammer: Get the unemployed to work, complete the fence
President Obama, after meeting with Senate Republicans yesterday announces he intends to spend $500 million dollars and send 1200 ANG troops to the border to help stop illegal immigration. Is Obama caving to pressure or just a well timed head fake? Well, based on what Republicans asked for, it’s a sham.
Read MoreNew York legislators suggest police shoot criminals in arms or legs only
Unbelievable. Brooklyn Assembly members Annette Robinson (D-Bedford Stuyvesant) and Darryl Towns (D-East New York), have put forth legislation that would require police officers – when a life is threatened – to shoot for arms or legs instead of center of mass. They mistakenly have replaced reality with a Hollywood movie.
Read MoreToo much: suspected illegal immigrant hits MA Rep Mike Moran and laughs
A Bay State Rep gets rear-ended by a suspected illegal alien and the perp responds by saying, come and get me copper. In any other state this is the kind of story that would come down on Governor Deval Patrick like a ton of bricks. After all, he’s the guy that made it illegal to…
Read MoreBiden suggests Brussels, Belgium may be true “capital of the free world”
Even though we refer to Washington, D.C. as the capital of the free world, Vice President Joe Biden suggested Brussels – in Belgium – may well have claim to that title. But would Brussels still exist as a capital for not the allied forces in World War I and World War II?
Read MoreAnother liberal who has not read the Arizona illegal immigration law
This is just too much. How a wizard of smart can appear on a Sunday Morning Talk show to talk about illegal immigration and not have read the law. I love Kirsten Powers because she is generally pragmatic, but clearly when you get into a smack down with Brit Hume, you had better know your stuff. Or, in this…
Read MoreSEIU members: Are you proud your brethren terrorized a teenager?
I’m serious. Are you OK with the tactics the SEIU leadership – and 500 members – took when they headed into a residential area to “protest” at the home of Greg Baer, deputy general council for corporate law at Bank of America? They did not just protest. They surrounded the house, got on the porch,…
Read MoreFederal government now must “save” local education
Secretary of Education Arne Duncan is asking Congress to put politics and ideology aside – for the good of the children – and come up with $23 billion to save education in America. What did you really expect would happen? The $100 billion in stimulus funding was just the tip of the iceberg.
Read MoreObamacare…more unintended consequences
We’ve already explained Obama’s promise that “you can keep your private health insurance if you like it” is pure rubbish. But, you say, what if I have insurance provided by my employer? Surely, I can keep that, can’t I? For most Americans the answer will be a resounding no. And here’s why. Obamacare requires that all employers with 50…

No surprise here I guess. The Democrats look past the character flaws of their chosen candidate and endorse the man with a glass jaw.
Read MoreArizona immigration law…Obama will simply ignore it
Yesterday, John Morton, the Director of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) dropped a bomb as to Obama’s plans with respect to Arizona’s new immigration law. You remember, that’s the law that everyone in the administration is blasting, but, the law that no one in the administration will admit to have read. More on this point…
