Obama’s “Carbon” Plan: Killing Jobs, Costing Americans Money

I’m still not that concerned with Obama’s climate change plan: there is a low probability that it will actually be implemented. There will be too many lawsuits filed and fought. Republican led states, and perhaps energy states with Democrat leadership, will blow the regulations off. A GOP president starting in 2017 will roll the regs […]

Team Obama “Surprised” By Bergdahl Reaction

One does have to wonder what was going through the heads of Obama and the people working for him regarding the prisoner swap that released 5 hardcore Islamists, high ranking members of the Taliban, in exchange for a soldier who deserted, and possibly gave aid and comfort to the enemy. Defense and CIA were overruled, […]

White House Accuses Soldiers Complaining About Bergdahl Of “Swift Boating”

Let’s be clear on one thing: this is Chuck Todd, appearing on The Today Show, reporting this, so take it with a grain of salt. But, having seen the way Team Obama has acted over the past 5+ years, would anyone be surprised if this was dead on? via The Weekly Standard’s Mark Hemingway Every […]

Obama’s Climate Policy Thought: “Are we ready for battle?”

As I noted yesterday, I’m not going to get to worked up when it comes to Obama’s climate change plan. There are many things we could discuss, such as The EPA admitting that it will raise the cost of energy by 6.5% by 2020, regardless of any spin by Obama and EPA head Gina McCarthy […]

Obama’s Power Plant Rules Seek To Reduce CO2 By 30%

Of course, not while he’s in office. Nor anytime soon. The full details of Obama’s energy cost skyrocketing plan will be released by the EPA today (Wall Street Journal) The Environmental Protection Agency will propose a draft rule on Monday seeking a 30% reduction in carbon-dioxide emissions by 2030 from existing power plants based on […]

Obama’s Foreign Policy Doctrine: “Don’t Do Stupid Sh*t”

This is not The Onion or other parody site (Politico) Forget The New Yorker’s “leading from behind,” and even President Barack Obama’s own “singles … doubles.” The West Wing has a preferred, authorized distillation of the president’s foreign-policy doctrine: “Don’t do stupid sh—.” The phrase has appeared in The New York Times three times in […]

Obama Weekly Address: Common Sense “Carbon” Reductions Or Something

With so much raging around his ears, especially the VA scandal, for which the Eric Shinseki has finally thrown himself on his sword (though O called him a super awesome guy and the problems weren’t really Shinseki’s fault), O decides that nothing else is as important as instituting “carbon” rules for power plants, artificially raising […]

State Spokesweenie: “Obama Doesn’t Give Himself Enough Credit”

“Credit for what?” (via The Lonely Conservative) (Washington Free Beacon) State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki was openly mocked by the assembled press corps Thursday after saying President Obama “doesn’t give himself enough credit for what he’s done around the world.” Associated Press reporter Matt Lee asked sarcastically whether he deserved 200 percent credit, while another […]

Obama To West Pointers: Fight Climate Change

I initially planned on going with the Politico article with the headline… Barack Obama still undecided on Eric Shinseki …but, then, no one should be surprised that Obama is dithering yet again. The Mozilla CEO was forced out for donating $1000 to the California Prop-8 pro-traditional marriage movement. Employees at countries across the country are […]

Strangely, Many Aren’t Buying Obama’s Afghanistan Pivot

In fact, the Washington Post Editorial Board thinks pretty poorly of YOU CAN’T fault President Obama for inconsistency (well, yes, you can. It really is amateur hour). After winning election in 2008, he reduced the U.S. military presence in Iraq to zero. After helping to topple Libyan dictator Moammar Gaddafi in 2011, he made sure […]
