Ironic Blog Roundup: Jon Stewart v. Fox News, The Right to Remain Silent, and Those Crazy Mormons

Three interesting articles in blogs today, all worth a read: Over at Politicususa they analyze the recent Pew Research Center’s survey of where people get their news, and conclude that the biggest competition to Fox News is not MSNBC or even CNN, but comedians Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert on Comedy Central. I love reading […]

Late Night Political Humor

“President Obama is trying to back the Republicans into a corner by paying for tax cuts for small businesses with tax hikes on big business. It’s like that old trick when you take two balls and throw one in the air to distract your opponent and throw the other one right at his chest. That’s […]

If MLK were alive today…

Did Obama Forfeit His Moral Authority?

One very telling sign that Obama is a moderate is that he has not gone after members of the Bush administration for war crimes (much to the chagrin of the far-left). In fact, he has said some downright nice things about not only Bush, but Reagan and other Republicans. While I admire him for his […]

Limits to Freedom?

A judge in South Africa has outlawed the burning of Bibles, planned by a Muslim activist as a response to the now-cancelled burning of Qurans in Florida. This is interesting in so many different ways. One our dearest freedoms is the freedom of speech, and we consider many acts to be protected speech. So while […]

Everything The Onion has done about 9/11. A fitting way to remember the 9th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. The headlines alone are worth it. Here are a few examples: Hijackers Surprised To Find Selves In Hell — The hijackers who carried out the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon expressed […]

Enough Said

Yesterday, a Fox News reporter asked Obama about “the wisdom of building a mosque a couple of blocks from Ground Zero“. I think I’ve been pretty clear on my position here. And that is, is that this country stands for the proposition that all men and women are created equal, that they have certain inalienable […]

How the Cookie Crumbles

The Girl Scouts allow homosexuals and atheists to join their ranks, and they have become a pro-abortion, feminist training corps. If the Girl Scouts of America can’t get back to teaching real character, perhaps it will be time to look for our cookies elsewhere. — Hans Zeiger, Republican candidate for Washington State Representative, who recently […]

How can a candidate be taken seriously when they threaten armed insurrection if they lose the election?

Is this what our politics has become? Really? And what’s worse — that an actual major candidate for the Senate could threaten violence if she doesn’t win, or that the mainstream media doesn’t even find this unusual? [via Crooks & Liars] Interestingly, I agree with Sharon Angle on most of her points. The second amendment […]

Late Night Political Humor

“Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer stopped speaking during an interview and stared blankly at the camera for 30 seconds. The good news is, she’s now eligible to be governor of Alaska.” – Jay Leno “Mayor Bloomberg may join President Obama’s administration. If he does, it will cost about $3 million. They’ll have to lower every door […]
