Liberty, equality and brotherhood…or death. It is no coincidence that a great deal of the inspiration for the American Revolution (and the construction of the Constitution) was drawn from the French. France was once the dominant force in individual freedoms and democratic governance, so much so that the official language of diplomacy was not English,…
First off, I am tired of people on the Left telling me I can’t use these sort of comparisons when they label everyone to the right of Marx an “extreme, ultra right winger.” If the comparison fits, TOUGH! I am going to use it and, in this case, it fits. So, when will we just…
And the ever benevolent liberal Bob Beckel calls the RNC Chairman a “pussy”. Hows that for liberal media … James? 🙂
And to think, I just wondered if Obama had tossed his official contraception spokestwit, Sandra Fluke, under the campaign bus – but since he has stooped to running his hand up Harry Reid’s back and using him like a ventriloquist’s dummy and nothing is working – he wants to do what any Hollywood production team would do…
Ouch. A GERMAN diver escaped serious injury when he landed flat on his back in the pool after a fluffed leap. A packed stadium cringed as Stephan Feck slammed into the water after attempting a jump from the 3metre board. BBC diving pundit Leon Taylor said: “His foot completely slipped off the side. He probably…
This is hilarious: White House disses Drudge Report: ‘Be mindful of your sources’ During the White House Press Briefing today, Press Secretary Jay Carney told a reporter to “be mindful of your sources” when asked about the Drudge Report article reporting that Mitt Romney was considering selecting former Army General and current CIA Director David…
If you can call killing the pensions of white collar, salaried retirees at GM a crime, that is. I’m pretty sure that is the way the retirees feel about it: Emails obtained by The Daily Caller show that the U.S. Treasury Department, led by Timothy Geithner, was the driving force behind terminating the pensions of…
Shocking: Abortionist Tells Pro-Life Group ‘Let Me See You Adopt One of Those Ugly Black Babies’ A horrifying video released by Operation Save America (OSA) sheds light on one abortionist’s views of his profession, and contrary to what many pro-choice activists would have you believe, the man does not seem to be in it to…
Italian synchronized swimmers walk on water. Cool, but an optical trick – here’s what it really looked like: Both were shot with an underwater camera and the top one was just flipped to change the perspective…still pretty cool. Just like in politics, sometimes “optics” can trick us…for 53% of American voters in 2008, I think they understand…
For some reason, this article from the Daily Mail put me in mind of the old TV show, Rawhide: The Greek authorities are rounding up thousands of suspected illegal immigrants in a large-scale deportation drive. Up to 6,000 were detained over the weekend in Athens and more than 1,600 are to be deported in the…
Your humble overseas correspondent has been telling you that while the US economy is bad, the EU is far worse. Of course, the USA has a full compliment of banal and obsequious politicians, but we have nothing to compare to the preening EU bureaucrats in Brussels. It is like having a government of John Edwards and Obama clones who would rather…
