The national Republican Party has a serious brand problem. Too many Establishment Elephants are too often Diet Democrats – taking positions just slightly less Large Government than the Donkey Party. That is – when they’re not agreeing with them in
It was another busy week in the Lawless Fiefdom of President Barack Obama. Just before the Independence Day four-day weekend–as President Obama and his White House stenographer reporter pool were on a 20-hour flight back from Africa–We the Subjects were handed down:
Since reelection, the Obama Administration has been more strident and extreme than “advertised” before reelection. Why would Tuesday’s State of the Union address be any different? The President’s Inaugural address was a Leftist manifesto – that sounded nothing at all
The New York Times late last week reported “Hackers in China Attacked The Times for Last 4 Months.” For the last four months, Chinese hackers have persistently attacked The New York Times, infiltrating its computer systems and getting passwords for
On Monday, an “immigration reform” proposal will be announced by a bipartisan group of eight Senators that includes Marco Rubio (R-FL). And tomorrow we will endure President Barack Obama’s “immigration reform” speech. “Immigration reform” as proposed by both sides nearly always
In December, President Barack Obama succeeded in getting Congressional Republicans to further sully their already tattered Party brand – by getting them to go along with the government taking even more of our money. For the President and his Democrats
In their latest rush to further emasculate the Second Amendment, many on the Left are taking aim at the Internet. Of course, illegal online sales of weapons and ammunition should be stopped–though the practice isn’t nearly as prevalent as the left would
Courtesy of the $83 billion auto bailout – on which we are already poised to lose more than $40 billion – the taxpayers are stuck with 26% stock ownership of General Motors (GM). It could get much worse. Judge Set
Tech companies spend trillions of dollars to build and maintain, expand and improve their Internet networks. Broadband industry has invested nearly $1.2 trillion dollars since 1996 So it is more than a mite disturbing when a democrat former Federal Communications
Just over 1/2 of 1% of anything is a paltry number, unless you are a fact-free Enviro-Mental – in which case it is cause to revel. These (electric/hybrid) vehicles were 0.65 percent of total North American sales, again a best-ever
From the So-Painfully-Obvious-We-Shouldn’t-Have-to-Run-This-Study Department: Study: Electric-Cars Won’t Make a Big Impact Until Prices Fall Shocker. What are those sticker prices? (T)he base price of a Toyota Prius comes in at $24,995 but the plug-in version starts at $32,795. The Chevrolet
President Barack Obama pulled it off – he won reelection. He did this despite the fake unemployment rate being above 8% throughout his first term. The real unemployment rate was 14.7% when people went to the polls, and it was
President Barack Obama incessantly touts the alleged “success” of the $50 billion General Motors (GM) bailout, evidence to the contrary notwithstanding. General Motors – The Government’s Warped Definition of ‘Success’ Much like the Obama Economy, General Motors’ numbers are tanking.
The reasons to “un”-elect President Barack Obama are myriad. His has a litany of failings that is massive and nearly all-encompassing. One of the most important reasons to dispatch this President is his governing via Executive Order and regulatory fiat
President Barack Obama was on the campaign trail, at least as late as this July, claiming that $50-billion-bailed-out General Motors (GM) was back – as the globe’s top car seller. The President was saying this long after it stopped being
A picture is worth a thousand words. Here are several that tell the $82 billion auto bailout story a whole lot better than the Barack Obama Administration has. We have been told ad nauseum that the auto bailout was unavoidable
Behold the New America Foundation (NAF), yet another Washington, D.C. entity laying claim to high-browed, high-minded non-partisanship. The New America Foundation is a nonprofit, nonpartisan public policy institute that invests in new thinkers and new ideas to address the next
From the moment General Motors (GM) cashed in our $50 billion in auto bailout coin, Government Motors was born, and has been little more than a Barack Obama Administration Crony Socialist Welfare delivery device. This is not Crony Capitalism, because
Last week delivered us another nugget of YouTube gold. A pro-President Barack Obama woman protester outside a Mitt Romney event – who may or may not have been an $11-an-hour-paid-to-be-there SEIU agitator – was asked why she supported the incumbent.
There’s a “new” Leftist alliance on the scene. What the New Internet Lobby Looks Like The Internet Association formally threw open its doors for business Wednesday, unveiling the 14 Web companies that make up its membership (they include AOL, Amazon,
As we have oft noted, President Barack Obama is killing the Internet. Bad policy after bad policy. Often illegally imposed. As a result, the Tech Sector – 1/6 of our nation’s economy, as big as health care – is hemorrhaging
Where you take a shot of booze every time a Democrat mentions the economy or ObamaCare. It’s certainly safe for those conscripted to the car keys. Given that the Barack Obama Administration has conscripted us to 43 months of 8
This is getting ridiculous. General Motors (GM) is halting, for a month, the manufacture of its well-known but seldom-sold Chevrolet Volt extended-range electric car, according to trade publication Automotive News. Certainly this is but the first time this has happened.
Everything the government does to regulate the Internet is illegal. The last time Congress addressed Tech policy they intentionally left the ‘Net completely alone. They authorized no one to regulate the Web in any way. So of course the Obama Administration
The DNC has plenty of good elected official seats still available. From Politico’s Mike Allen: The (Convention planning) documents also give a glimpse of what parts of Obama’s record will get the most attention in the campaign, with one piece
Bad policy after bad policy. Often illegally imposed. As a result, the Tech Sector – 1/6 of our nation’s economy, as big as health care – is hemorrhaging jobs. Tech Layoffs Hit 3-year High in First Half of 2012 And
The Jurassic Press is in full-on Defend President Barack Obama mode. But since President Obama’s record is indefensible, that means the Press is also in “Eviscerate Mitt Romney” mode. The ideological godfather of the Press is, of course, the New
Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Saturday named Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan as his Vice Presidential running mate. Their private sector experience – and the policy agenda they champion – makes them far and away the better choice in November.
President Barack Obama on Thursday uttered the following utterly absurd thing: “I want to (bailout) manufacturing jobs, not just in the auto industry, but in every industry.” Even before President Obama dramatically bumped up the auto bailout to $82 billion,
Confusion abounds about where the government should and should not be involved with the Internet. It really isn’t that complicated. Apply old principles to these new problems, and the government’s proper Web role becomes readily apparent. Where Government Has No
Recall the gi-normous Leftist kerfuffle kicked up around Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s utterly uncontroversial utterance: “I like being able to fire people who provide services to me.” Which is a perfectly reasonable perspective. So of course the Left went
Our nation is saddled with a tiny cadre of Leftists who, unfortunately, hold many key positions both inside and outside of government. These Leftists assert with great, though completely unfounded, authority that they know best how private businesses should do
President Barack Obama and his Democrat Party are doing everything they can to squelch the First Amendment. Which in part reads: Congress shall make no law…abridging the freedom of speech,…or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to
We have examined many facets of the omni-directional terrible-ness that is Network Neutrality. It is illegal for the federal government to unilaterally impose Net Neutrality. Before the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) can do anything, Congress must first write a law
Oops. Concerns that Chevrolet Cruzes could catch fire have caused General Motors (GM) to recall more than 475,000 of the popular compact sedans, the automaker said Friday… All (Cruze) cars manufactured from September 2010 to May of this year are
On December 21, 2010 the Barack Obama Administration–via its Federal Communications Commission (FCC)– illegally imposed Network Neutrality. Net Neutrality allows the government to regulate every website on the World Wide Web–a tremendous First Amendment free speech problem. Net Neutrality came from
General Motors (GM)’s stock price has now dropped by 33% since the company emerged from its $50 billion-taxpayer-funded bailout bankruptcy. And on Tuesday, President Barack Obama-appointee CEO Dan Akerson had to face GM shareholders at their annual meeting. Lest we
We’ve seen a lot of people and companies benefit illegally and/or unfairly from the policies of the Barack Obama Administration. The Obama Administration routinely picks losers at the expense of winners — the common thread amongst the losers being their
The $50 billion General Motors (GM) bailout was a Democrat Crony Socialist nightmare. The Obama Administration illegally over-rewarded its union friends and destroyed Republican-enemy auto dealers, to name but two facets of the titanic debacle. We the Taxpayers are still out $30+ billion on the
