CBS News is careful to note that the State Department shut down its unclassified email system to repair “possible” damage from a “suspected” hacker attack, but those suspicions must run pretty deep to justify the measures that were taken: A
The new ISIS snuff film is a little different than their previous offerings, in that they don’t show the marquee murder taking place, but according to the UK Daily Mail, a severed head purportedly belonging to captured aid worker and
In response to Senator Chris Murphy, Jake Tapper and the Unsung Villains of GruberGate: It’s amazing to think we reached the end of the week with a hard blackout imposed on the Gruber story by two major networks, ABC and
You hear a lot of liberal rhetoric from some of the top brass at Google, including open-borders ideology, and then you read stories like this one from Reuters: Google was sued this week by a worker who claimed the company
An amazingly stupid story with a clever Twitter hashtag, #shirtstorm, has been brewing for the past couple of days. Long story short, one of the brilliant scientists who just landed a space probe on a moving comet decided to wear
At first glance, I thought this video from Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) concerned President Obama’s Net Neutrality push. While Senator Cruz has been outspoken about Net Neutrality, in this case he’s warning about dethroned Democrats forcing a different bad idea
In response to 5th Video Shows Gruber Laughing At and Mocking ObamaCare Critic’s Accurate Predictions: Shed no tears for Jonathan Gruber, fair Debra, for he was well-compensated for his perfidy, and we were forced to pay him. I want to
Senator Mary Landrieu isn’t the only Democrat looking to stage a little Separation Theater to open daylight between herself and Party leadership. Politico reports she was one of several Senators to stage show votes against keeping Harry Reid as the
The Wall Street Journal wrote about Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu’s ridiculous and pathetic play for votes by reinventing herself as a Keystone XL pipeline hawk – she stopped just short of yelling “DRILL, BABY, DRILL!” – and noted that while
Barack Obama is the most dangerous lame duck ever to haunt the marshes of post-election defeat. He’s angry at the American people, testy with Democrats who blame him for their electoral losses, and more determined that ever to finish “transforming
Want to watch a desperate politician at the end of her rope throw her entire Party under the bus, in a last-ditch effort to hang on to her seat while the breakers of a wave election roll across the shore?
As CBS News in Denver is careful to note, it’s not really fair to refer to the amazingly foolish and corrupt “Lifeline” program – free cell phones for Food Stamp Nation – as “Obamaphones,” because the program existed long before
In response to Jonathan Gruber – ACA and ‘The Stupidity Of The American Voter’: I see the Left is drenching the Internet in flop sweat as they either search for some mystical “context” that will change the plain meaning of
In response to Dems to double down on Koch Brothers attacks: I’ll take a stab at guessing why Democrats are doubling down on Kochmania, even though they got creamed in the last election, and their Koch obsession makes the party
If memory serves correctly, the first random access storage device I seriously considered purchasing, as a preteen with some odd-job money to fuel his insatiable appetite for high technology, was a floppy disk drive that stored 128K per disk. (Gather
Looks like the Russian hackers responsible for so much mayhem sat this one out, as suspicions for the massive U.S. Postal Service data breach are falling upon the Chinese government. Which is kind of awkward, because President Obama is currently
Instapundit’s Glenn Reynolds has an excellent list of suggestions at USA Today for an early salvo of bills the Republicans could fire off when the new Congress comes into session. As he puts it, there are three kinds of bills
Fans of real science fiction – not the “epic fantasy with lasers” fare we usually get in movie theaters – will be delighted by Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar.” It’s one of the few major films to follow in the footsteps of
Democrats seem determined to leech all the suspense from the final month of incumbent Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu’s career. Political wonks wanted a dramatic showdown, a little December chaser to the midterm election drama, but instead Democrats are pulling their
I always expected the Halbig case to end up at the Supreme Court. I’m surprised so many people are surprised they agreed to hear the challenge today. I suppose this might have been a political decision, i.e. the four conservative
In response to Louisiana: Off and Running, Again: The Democrats have started pulling their ad buys for the Louisiana runoff, so Landrieu’s career is likely to end with a sad little ellipsis where the Party half-heartedly pretends she has a
You’ll read some thorough, well-researched analysis about what the 2014 midterm election wave means for various potential 2016 presidential candidates. I think the time is right for some guy out in flyover country to whip a quick post off the
Dan Henninger at the Wall Street Journal thinks Obama’s weaksauce economy cooked Democrat geese during the midterm elections: “Low economic growth in the modern U.S. economy is a total, across-the-board, top-to-bottom political loser.” Normally “economic growth” is an economist’s term
Today’s banana republic update comes to us from the exasperated watchdogs at Judicial Watch, which has a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit pending in the IRS targeting scandal. Some months ago, we learned that former Tax Exempt Organizations honcho Lois
I’m sure my fellow Floridian Javier will join me in thanking Governor Rick Scott for scaring us all half to death with a close race, but in the end, soulless party-flipping opportunist Charlie Crist was sent packing. The New York
