As a rule, I don’t watch debates moderated by MSM hacks. The questions are always rehashed DNC talking points, and they are often just plain dumb. A classic example was provided during last night’s GOP debate by Maria Bartiromo:
You have all said that you will repeal President Obama’s health care legislation. Down the line, 30 […]

THE DUMBEST QUESTION FROM A MODERATOR IN LAST NIGHT’S GOP DEBATE
THE LEFT HAS BECOME COMFORTABLY DUMB
My column in today’s American Spectator discusses progressive cluelessness about how often they can pick the taxpayer’s pocket in order to fund frivolous luxuries:
Today I received an email from a cycling group to which I belong. It was marked ‘urgent’ and its subject line read: ‘Federal Bike Funding Under Attack Again.’ It implored me to […]
VIDEO: PELOSI CLAIMS OBAMACARE WAIVERS WENT ONLY TO SMALL COMPANIES
This woman is the best player on our team. Every time she opens her mouth she says something stupid. This time, in an NBC interview, she made the following preposterous claim about the waivers:
They’re small. I couldn’t speak to all 1,800 of them, but some of the lists that I have seen have been very, very […]
COMFORTABLY DUMB
This picture captures the imbecility that lies at the root of the “Occupy Wall Street” charade. Everyone “protesting” evil corporations is wearing or carrying something made by a corporation. Where do these morons think all their stuff comes from? Santa Claus?

VIDEO: OBAMA VS. OBAMA ON TAX HIKES DURING A RECESSION
Today, the President threatened to veto any budget coming out of Congress that doesn’t include tax increases. In fact, he is actually insisting on a gigantic tax increase.
Think it’s a dumb idea to raise taxes during a recession? Well, until recently, so did he. Here’s a clip from 2009 in which Obama said you shouldn’t raise taxes in a recession:

THE FOURTH CIRCUIT’S FACTUAL FOUL-UP ON PRO-OBAMACARE RULING
Last week, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed Virginia’s lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of ObamaCare’s individual mandate on the grounds that the Old Dominion had no standing. The majority phrased it thus:
Virginia filed this action on March 23, 2010, the same day that the President signed the Affordable Care Act into law. The Governor […]
VIDEO: HOWARD FINEMAN SAYS OBAMACARE WAS THE PRESIDENT’S BIGGEST MISTAKE
Howard Fineman, who is now the Editorial Director for The Huffington Post, was asked by Chris Matthews: What has been President Obama’s biggest political mistake? Fineman answered as follows:
His decision to spend all of his political capital in a year and a half of his time on the healthcare reform law I think was his […]
PROFESSOR OBAMA HOLDS FORTH ON THE MANDATE
My latest column for the American Spectator discusses a couple of preposterous statements made by the President concerning ObamaCare’s ever-increasing troubles in the court system. For example, in response to a question from an admirer in Iowa, he said:
If the Supreme Court follows existing precedent, existing law, it should be upheld without a problem.
He then added:
There’s nothing wrong with […]
VIDEO: CONSTITUTIONAL SCHOLAR-IN-CHIEF MAKES UTTERLY CLUELESS CLAIMS ABOUT OBAMACARE’S CONSTITUTIONALITY
The President and his supporters are very proud of his alleged experience as a teacher of constitutional law, but his actual expertise seems pretty thin. In this video, he makes two preposterous statements about ObamaCare’s future in the courts.
First, he claims that the individual mandate is like state laws requiring people to buy auto insurance, an argument that betrays a […]
VIDEO: REP. ALLEN WEST ASSESSES IQ OF DNC CHAIR DEBBIE WASSERMAN-SCHULTZ
This will be the best video you’ll see today. Rep Allen West (R-FL) is asked to provide a four-word response to a statement by DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, and his answer is priceless (not to mention true):
