Obama’s DOE Green Programs Spent $26 Billion On Less Than 3,000 Jobs
10 May 2013 7:52 am William Teach

Don’t worry, Obama’s cool with this, it’s Someone Else’s money, and he can always get more.

(Institute for Energy Research) Without much fanfare, the Department of Energy (DOE) recently updated the list of loan guarantee projects on its website. Unlike in 2008, when Barack Obama pledged to create 5 million jobs over 10 years by directing taxpayer funds toward renewable energy projects, there were no press conferences or stump speeches. But the data are nonetheless revealing: for the over $26 billion spent since 2009, DOE Section 1703 and 1705 loan guarantees …

AP Claims Official House Benghazi Hearings Just ‘GOP Hearing’
9 May 2013 3:41 pm Warner Todd Huston

The Associated Press on Wednesday mischaracterized the Benghazi hearings as merely a Republican event even though it is an official House investigation.
In the headline of its report, the Associated Press downplayed the official hearings of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee–that has both Democrats and Republicans on it–into the failures surrounding the 2012 attacks on our embassy personnel in Benghazi, Libya. The AP characterized the official hearings as “GOP hearings” making the proceedings seem like a mere political witch-hunt.
The piece written by Donna Cassata was headlined, “GOP Benghazi hearing …

Senator James Inhofe: The Obama Administration Is Intentionally Trying To Dry Up The Ammo Supply
9 May 2013 7:34 am John Hawkins

It had never occurred to me that the Obama Administration might be trying to buy so much ammo that it dried up the supply until it could get gun control passed because it’s incredibly expensive, wasteful, poor governance and completely unfeasible over the long haul. On the other hand, those terms seem like a pretty good description of Barack Obama’s entire presidency so far, so just maybe….

On Aaron Klein’s weekend show on New York City’s WABC radio, Oklahoma Republican Sen. James Inhofe accused the Obama administration of buying up ammunition …

Mike Huckabee: Obama Will Be IMPEACHED Over Benghazi
8 May 2013 6:23 am John Hawkins

Does Barack Obama deserve to be impeached over Benghazi? Mike Huckabee certainly thinks so.

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is now openly talking about impeachment, saying he does not believe Barack Obama will survive the remaining 3½ years of his presidency.
“When a president lies to the American people and is part of a cover-up, he cannot continue to govern,” Huckabee said on his radio show Monday.
“As the facts come out, I think we’re going to see something startling. And before it’s over, I don’t think this president will finish his term …

Benghazi Truth Begins to Surface
7 May 2013 1:06 pm Dave Blount

To quote some Shakespeare, “at the length truth will out.” When it comes to Benghazi it would have come out at much shorter length if the media didn’t have to be dragged kicking and screaming to report on it, but in the end it will out all the same. We already know that US jets could have stopped the Benghazi attack:
The U.S. military could have prevented one wave of the deadly attack on American personnel in Benghazi if fighter jets had been promptly deployed, a top diplomatic official who was …

Obama to College Students: You can TRUST BIG GOVERNMENT!
7 May 2013 6:00 am John Hawkins

The greatest President of our lifetime was Ronald Reagan, who once said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’” On the other hand, the worst President of our lifetime has been Barack Obama and he’s telling college students that they can trust big government. Here’s what he had to say in a “commencement address to the graduating class of The Ohio State University.”

Still, you’ll hear voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister …

Tell Me If You’ve Heard This One Before: Obama To Focus On Jobs
6 May 2013 7:49 am William Teach

Obama’s like the kid who constantly breaks windows playing ball too close to the house, does a crummy job mowing the grass, won’t clean his room, whines about wanting cookies before dinner, and then demands a raise in his allowance every few months. Heck, the USA Today writer can’t even find it in himself to write a full size article, just a few paragraphs, having seen this again and again
Obama to launch new jobs tours
President Obama is turning back to the jobs issue, launching a series of “Middle Class Jobs …

POTUS Who Releases Illegals To Scare Public Discusses Our “Broken Immigration System”
4 May 2013 7:54 am William Teach

You remember when Obama, as head of the Executive Branch, had DHS release thousands of illegal aliens from jail in order to make a point about the Sequestration. Well, surprisingly, his weekly address fails to mention that episode. From the transcript
The truth is, right now, our border with Mexico is more secure than it’s been in years. We’ve put more boots on that border than at any time in our history, and illegal crossings are down by nearly 80 percent from their peak in 2000. But we’ve got more to …

Newspaper Union Declares Koch Brothers Unfit to Own Newspapers
4 May 2013 3:30 am Warner Todd Huston

On the heels of reports that “half” the staffers at the L.A. Times would resign if the paper was sold to conservative billionaires the Koch brothers, the Newspaper Guild–Communications Workers of America, a journalist labor union, have issued a statement declaring the pair unfit to own a newspaper.

At the end of April, reports on an in-house awards ceremony held at the Los Angeles Times revealed that half the staffers in attendance claimed that they’d instantly resign if their paper was sold to Charles and David Koch, the brothers who have …

Bloomberg Assembles Leftist Cartoonists to Attack Second Amendment
3 May 2013 1:30 pm Warner Todd Huston

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is touting his newest effort to cancel the U.S. Constitution and the Second Amendment with a gathering of cartoons by 21 cartoonists who have taken a stand against our Constitutional right to self-protection.
As Bloomie has it, they are “the nation’s best loved cartoonists.” But what Bloomberg doesn’t mention is that this gathering isn’t just a bunch of cartoonists goaded to sudden action by current events, but is a list of artists many of whom are well known as left-wing activists. One is even a …

Traitors: American Journalists Attack Koch Brothers, Support Al Jazeera
2 May 2013 3:45 pm Warner Todd Huston

There is a confluence of events over the last few weeks that perfectly proves the essential anti-Americanism of the Old Media establishment in this country today. It is evinced in two separate stories, one wheret the left is excoriating the Koch brothers for wanting to buy the L.A. Times and a contrasting story where journalists are falling all over themselves to get hired by the new news network being started by Al Jazeera, the jihad-supporting, anti-American, Muslim-owned news agency.

At the end of April, stories began to emerge that conservative brothers …

Harry Reid: We Need More Money To Keep Obamacare From Becoming A Train Wreck
2 May 2013 6:56 am William Teach

Sorry, Harry, Obamacare was a train wreck even before it was passed, and no one has bothered to close the track since
(The Hill) Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) says he shares colleagues’ concerns that the Affordable Care Act could become a “train wreck” if it’s not implemented properly.
Reid warned that people will not be able to choose health insurance plans on government health exchanges if federal authorities lack the resources to set them up and educate the public.
“Max said unless we implement this properly it’s going to be a …

Andrew Was Right: National Review’s Pigford Editorial
2 May 2013 12:01 am Warner Todd Huston

On April 29, one of conservatism’s leading journals, National Review, published a lead editorial on the Pigford scandal not only noting at the outset that Andrew Breitbart was right all along, but that the scandal deserves more attention nationally.
As it wraps up, the NR piece arrives at the logical conclusion that Obama’s expansion of Pigford payouts “resembles in organization and aim a criminal conspiracy of breathtaking proportions, and one in which the federal government was first complicit and then ultimately responsible.”
Just so. But along the way, NR gives readers …

Saudi Arabia Warned US About Tamerlan Tsarnaev
1 May 2013 9:14 am William Teach

As Obama is defending those responsible for keeping the US as safe as they can from terrorists, his pleas seem rather weak in the face of more information, in the form of an exclusive from the UK Daily Mail…..isn’t it funny that we have to get so much of our information on these types of issue, namely, ones that make Obama look bad, from news outlets outside the US?
EXCLUSIVE: Saudi Arabia ‘warned the United States IN WRITING about Boston Bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev in 2012′

Saudis developed intelligence separately from Russia, which …

AP Edits ‘Muslim’ Out of Obama’s ‘Muslim Socialist’ WHCD Joke
30 Apr 2013 6:54 pm Warner Todd Huston

In some of its reports on Saturday night’s White House Correspondents Dinner (WHCD), the Associated Press chose to edit one of President Obama’s own gags. The AP strangely edited out the word “Muslim” in one of Obama’s self-referential jokes.
Early in his comments on April 26, President Obama made reference to his young life with a joke and a visual image projected on the video screen.
The President joked that everyone loves Michelle and mentioned that she has even appeared on magazine covers. The President said he also appeared on a magazine …

Did Administration Threaten Benghazi Whistleblowers?
30 Apr 2013 8:24 am William Teach

Their lawyer says the O admin did
(Fox News) At least four career officials at the State Department and the Central Intelligence Agency have retained lawyers or are in the process of doing so, as they prepare to provide sensitive information about the Benghazi attacks to Congress, Fox News has learned.
Victoria Toensing, a former Justice Department official and Republican counsel to the Senate Intelligence Committee, is now representing one of the State Department employees. She told Fox News her client and some of the others, who consider themselves whistle-blowers, have been …

Nonpartisan Report: Obama Spends Twice As Much Time On Golfing & Vacations As He Does On Economy
29 Apr 2013 11:53 am John Hawkins

Who would have ever thought that the best thing about being President would be the non-stop golfing and vacations? Sure, you may be too broke to go on vacation because of Obama’s bad decisions, but that isn’t stopping him from vacationing on your dime. A nonpartisan group called the Government Accountability Institute (GAI) just did a report that examines Obama’s schedule. It compared all the time Obama spent in economic meetings over his first term with the time he spent golfing (4 hours per outing) and on vacation (6 hours …

Washington Post Wonders If Charm Is Obama’s Last, Best Hope
29 Apr 2013 8:01 am William Teach

This occurs at the intersection of journalism and wishful thinking from those who most likely voted for Obama
After string of setbacks, more charm may be the last, best option for Obama

Writers Juliet Eilperin and Zachary A. Goldfarb picked the perfect picture to explain Obama and his charm, wouldn’t you think?
There was little time to mingle Tuesday night at the White House. Five minutes after greeting them, President Obama ushered 20 female senators into the State Dining Room and invited each to offer her thoughts on the issues of the day. …

12 Programs From Obama’s Sequestration Congress Refuses To Fix
27 Apr 2013 9:08 am William Teach

Democrats are already running around stating that Democrats, mostly (NMP) Obama, have lost on sequestration. Therefore, they’re going to have to come up with more scary stories in order to continue spending willy nilly on pretty much everything at the federal level, which is a great way to continue increases the tangle of tentacles into citizen’s lives and their reliance on Government

(Think Progress)…Unfortunately, though, Congress has shown no willingness to provide similar relief for the families that are being hammered by sequestration in other ways. Here are 12 programs that …

Republicans FORCE OBAMA TO Back Off On Deliberately Slowing Down Air Travel
26 Apr 2013 2:35 pm John Hawkins

You’ve heard the talking heads go on and on about the sequester, but all it really does is force the government to make a very slight decrease in its rate of growth. In other words, even under the sequester, we’re going to be spending a lot more this year than we did last year and so on and so on until the country goes broke and we all end up eating stone soup and telling our kids stories about the good old days before Obama got into office.

Yet and still, …
