Does this sound familiar? President Obama decides to overturn some element of our national security. The decision is taken without regard for evidence that the consequences could be dire, on the grounds that the president believes "our values" necessitate a change. Only after the presidentially directed change in course is announced is a study launched to figure out how to implement it.

'Snowpocalypse' on Global Warming
Newsbusters, by Jeff Poor    Original Article

With Washington, D.C. buried beneath at least 20 inches of snow, and with more in the forecast, common sense would suggest global warming alarmists look elsewhere to make the argument to raise awareness for their concerns. But no, Dylan Ratigan thinks it's ridiculous to suggest all the snowfall totals could cast doubt on the theory of anthropogenic global warming.

Sen. Ben Nelson (D., Neb.) will back Senate Republicans' filibuster of President Obama's nominee to the National Labor Relations Board, Craig Becker: The move is likely to infuriate labor groups who have fought hard for Craig Becker's nomination to serve on the five-member NLRB - and will likely give Republicans enough support to sustain a filibuster Tuesday. “Mr. Becker’s previous statements strongly indicate that he would take an aggressive personal agenda to the NLRB,

In the Oval Office this morning, President Obama signed a Presidential Memorandum in conjunction with his wife’s launch of a nationwide campaign to tackle childhood obesity, what he called the “most urgent” health issue facing the country. (Snip) The memorandum creates a 90-day plan creating a task-force to provide “optimal coordination” between private sector companies, not-for-profits, agencies within the government and other organizations to address the problem of childhood obesity.

Taking America back from the Marxist jaws of Barack Obama starts with your own children in the privacy of your own home. Obama’s Marxist agenda for the USA did not start on Nov. 4, 2008. It started long before when he and his domestic terrorist pal Bill Ayers were force-feeding a radical agenda through the public school system. Had the cunning Marxist Obama and Ayers ever told an assembly of adults that America was no

What is the matter with that man in our White House? Will he ever stop trying to spend every nickel and dime that Americans have, including our savings that we worked hard for to ease our retirement years? He acts like a poor kid that suddenly comes into some money and it is burning a hole in his pocket to get spent. It is an infatuation and an obsession that the money has got to be disposed of regardless of how infantile or worthless

Teachers Unions:
The Child Molester’s Best Friend

Imagine if you could get full salary and benefits for a decent paying job and you didn’t have to work to get it. All you had to do was be accused of a crime. What crime, you ask? How about molesting school kids? That’s what the teachers‘ unions in states like California and New York State are doing: coddling accused criminals — at your expense. And it’s probably going on elsewhere as well. Believe it or not, New York is a lot tougher on them

Researchers at Northern Arizona University think they may have found an environmentally safe and readily available weapon against the tree-eating armies of bark beetles. (Snip)NAU's School of Forestry was on the hunt for ways to fight the marauding bugs, which have chewed through millions of acres of the West's pine forests, leaving behind dead trees and the risk of wildfires.

NEW YORK — So you're a guy? Poor you!You get slapped on your bottom at birth, then spend the rest of your life being shoved around by wives and girlfriends who make you mow the lawn, listen to their friends, return their phone calls, eat fruit at breakfast, shop for lingerie instead of watching the game, put your underwear in the basket and put the toilet seat down. Such was the state of affairs between Mars and Venus depicted in

Frontpage Interview’s guest today is Dave Gaubatz, the first U.S. civilian (1811) Federal Agent deployed to Iraq in 2003. (Snip) These are the type of people CAIR supports and even our government supports. The IRS grants CAIR and other such organizations non-profit organizational status and tax free benefits, while you and I are forced to pay taxes to support the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood. Something doesn’t seem right and

Rep. Paul Ryan, a Wisconsin Republican who has recently been under attack by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and lavished with praise by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R), is ruling out a 2012 run for president. "I'll give you as Shermanesque a quote as I can," said Ryan. "I am not going to run for president. I'm just not going to do it. My head's not that big, and my kids are too small.” Ryan, who made his comments on Sunday to “Upfront

Last month, Michelle Obama announced that she hopes to make a deep and lasting policy impact by spearheading an initiative to reduce childhood obesity. (Snip) If she’s smart, which she is, what Mrs. Obama won’t do is heap all the blame on you for the extra weight you’re carrying. And she also won’t place 100 percent of the responsibility for losing it squarely on your shoulders—beefy as they seem to have become. Anyone who’s

Socialism: The lights are flickering in oil-rich Venezuela, a victim of the same shortages that appear wherever socialism is tried. With the grid verging on collapse, the final irony is to see Hugo Chavez calling Cuba to fix it. Most leaders serious about fixing a collapsing power grid call up companies like Bechtel or APR Energy because they're capable of swiftly setting up small power plants in emergencies, even in infrastructure wastelands such

Iran: Incredibly, the Bush national security team's sole holdover has announced Peace in Our Time as the only hope against a nuclear Tehran. There is no defense for Secretary Robert Gates. Appearing in Paris with the French defense minister on Monday, U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates made an announcement to the world that will astonish our friends and embolden our enemies. "We must still try and find a peaceful way to resolve

ABUJA, Nigeria - Parliament empowered Vice President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday to take over for the ill president of oil-rich Nigeria, whose absence has stoked unrest in Africa's most populous country. Both the House of Representatives and the Senate passed measures calling on Jonathan to act as president and commander in chief until President Umaru Yar'Adua returns from Saudi Arabia, where he has been receiving medical

The media's hate parade against the former governor of Alaska hit a disgraceful peak Monday night when comedian Stephen Colbert said on national television, "Sarah Palin is a f**king retard."

Voters are souring on the economy and the government’s remedies, according to February's IBD/TIPP Economic Optimism Index. It fell 4.1% to 46.8, matching December’s level and the weakest since July. “Persisting high unemployment and a wobbly stock market dampened January’s optimism,” said Raghavan Mayur, president of TIPP, IBD’s polling partner. Readings below 50 signal pessimism. Confidence in federal

Rehearsals begin next week on the Improv Asylum’s musical spoof “You’re a Good Man, Scott Brown,” a send-up of the historical senatorial election and the political madhouse that ensued.“We will follow our hero’s path from obscurity to winning the election, but the goal is to poke fun at everybody,” head inmate Norm Laviolette told the Track. “There’s more than enough material to go around.” Besides Brown, the Asylum will poke fun at

A Bigfork bartender found an unlikely cure for winter blues in a famous blue can. Spam-O-Rama, an irreverent homage to the canned meat, celebrated its eighth year at Bigfork’s Garden Bar on Saturday afternoon. “I love Spam. It’s a beautiful meat product,” said Mark “Mister” Langlois, the bar’s owner and a lifelong devotee to the mystery meat. Spam-O-Rama entrants competed for prizes in carving and cooking categories.
