Yesterday, President Barack Obama told CBS News’ 60 Minutes that “ninety percent” of the reason the federal budget deficit has risen dramatically under his administration is because of his predecessor, George W. Bush. Not only is that a baldfaced lie–Obama
The mainstream media is faking every number it can get away with to save President Barack Obama. Not content with weighting poll samples with absurd Democrat margins or spinning high unemployment rates, the media is now faking crowd numbers for
President Barack Obama is having trouble drawing large crowds on the campaign trail. At the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, his campaign was forced to move his acceptance speech from the 74,000-seat Bank of America Stadium to the 20,000 Time
The media insist that Mitt Romney is running a bad campaign. Whether that’s true or not, one thing is certain: Barack Obama’s campaign is undoubtedly worse. From day one, Obama’s re-election effort has been a microcosm of his failures in
How is Mitt Romney still in the presidential race? Doesn’t he know what the media say? Can’t he see the election is over? Can’t he see it’s been over at least ten times already? 1. The Economic Recovery: Romney’s main
1. Stimulus, Feb. 2009 In 2008, Barack Obama promised to pass a $50 billion stimulus to help the faltering U.S. economy. Instead, he passed a $862 billion spending spree that funneled cash to state governments, Solyndra-type cronies, and Democrat special
National Public Radio has been ragging Mitt Romney all week over his “47 percent” remark, during which he noted (in May) that he was unlikely to win the votes of the increasing percentage of Americans who depend on the federal
In keeping with his administration’s philosophy of “leading from behind,” President Barack Obama filed a new complaint against China with the World Trade Organization (WTO) this week–after Republican nominee Mitt Romney began highlighting Obama’s failure to out-compete China in trade
A new, self-published book by “pragmatic libertarian” Alan R. Lockwood claims that Barack Obama, while brilliant, may have entered Harvard Law School in the bottom 20% of his class, based on mediocre college grades–and high Law School Admission Test (LSAT)
As Al Qaeda burns the American flag, President Barack Obama replaces it with his own. As Americans mourn the 9/11 attacks, President Obama appears on the “Pimp With a Limp” show. As the Arab world explodes in anger, President Obama praises
Breitbart News is doubling its reward–to $100,000–for one of the missing pieces of Barack Obama’s past, which may be the key to understanding his collapsing Middle East policy: the “Khalidi tape,” a video kept under wraps by the Los Angeles
Last night, I received a call from an opinion poll. Aha! I thought. Now is my chance to have an impact on the national race. Those pollsters try to bend the partisan samples to show Obama in the lead, but
President Barack Obama, above, negotiating terms of surrender. Har har. At least he didn’t bow this time. (We hope.) While Obama tweeted the photo above, Americans were under attack around the world. But our Commander-in-Chief has time for “Talk Like
Barack Obama should not be President of the United States–according to President Barack Obama. That’s the inescapable conclusion of a new ad released by the Obama campaign in which one man proclaims: “As a president, if you try to separate
Republican nominee Mitt Romney’s supposed “gaffes” all follow a similar pattern: they are factually true statements that the mainstream media collectively decide he should not have said. Sometimes they have a point: it was not necessary to criticize Britain on
Mother Jones, the left-wing magazine that released a controversial video of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s remarks to a fundraiser in May, now admits that it has no full tape of what Romney said, and that its video is missing
The Obama administration’s repeated lie about the attacks on U.S. targets across the Middle East–i.e. that the motive is anger about a film, not anger at the U.S.–reveals a deeper truth: the Obama camp really does believe he is loved
Bob Woodward’s The Price of Politics is a devastating exposé of the lack of leadership in Washington–especially, though not exclusively, from President Barack Obama. While the nation faces profound fiscal challenges, the Obama administration plays politics and the Republican establishment
Mitt Romney’s remarks in May about the “47 percent” were, to my mind, unfortunate. Not as outrageous as Obama’s “bitter clingers” remarks in 2008 (at least Romney’s comments were based on fact and not prejudice), and not as unpresidential as
President Barack Obama’s fundraising trip to Las Vegas on Wednesday–shameful though it may have been, in the midst of a deadly foreign policy crisis–was a sign of how important Nevada remains to his re-election prospects. Mitt Romney was in the
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has made the economy the center of his campaign, hoping for a repeat of the election of 1980, where Ronald Reagan unseated Jimmy Carter in a weak economy, or 1992, where Bill Clinton did the
Ari Shapiro of National Public Radio went on the defensive after being identified as one of the reporters caught on an open microphone coordinating questions before Wednesday’s press conference with Republican nominee Mitt Romney. Almost all of the questions by
The mainstream media are laboring hard to turn Gov. Mitt Romney’s strong defense of American interests and values into a “gaffe” that reflects the Obama campaign’s claim that Romney is somehow not ready for the foreign policy duties of the
