Spawn of the Spendulus Updated

By Michelle Malkin  •  July 10, 2009 10:20 AM

My syndicated column today covers the dawn of Generational Theft Act II. Yesterday, Nancy Pelosi purportedly walked back the rhetoric. Except she didn’t. While saying she was “committed to the first stimulus, and to giving it time to work,” she then turned around and floated another extension of unemployment benefits and a giant new highway [...]

An Army of Tax Revolters — and a warning to fair-weather Republicans

By Michelle Malkin  •  April 15, 2009 12:55 AM

(Design: Tennyson Hayes)
Blog pioneer Glenn Reynolds, author of “An Army of Davids,” has a nice overview of the Tea Party movement in the Wall Street Journal today. (We probably shouldn’t use the phrase “army of (fill-in-the-blank) anymore” — what with all the DHS warnings about “rightwing extremism chatter on the Internet” and “disgruntled military veterans” [...]

Cap-and-trade, “reconciliation,” and the death of deliberation

My syndicated column today looks at how radical cap-and-trade legislation is getting rammed through Congress. It’s rare that I agree with anything Robert Byrd says. But I do today. No April Fool’s joke!
On a related track, Dems are ramping up efforts to use budget reconciliation to force their universal health care scheme [...]

Spendulus Alert: $50 billion for “mandatory mortgage modifications”

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 9, 2009 11:52 AM

I uploaded the entire Sellout Substitute Amendment championed by the Turncoat Caucus this weekend. Did you read through to the very end of the 778-page legislative text? Did your Senator? If you did, then you saw this:
SEC. 7001. MANDATORY LOAN MODIFICATIONS.
Section 109(a) of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (12 U.S.C. 5219) is amended—

The “compromise” is a crock of you-know-what; Sellouts on the Senate floor; Show us the bill

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 6, 2009 07:16 PM

Scroll for updates…Sellouts on the Senate floor 7:30pm Eastern…

Gold-plated poop.
Details of GOP Sen. Susan Collins’ “compromise” “stimulus” proposal are coming out. This is a Mt. Kilimanjaro-sized crock of you know what. Total cost of this “pared down” bill is $1.175 trillion.
Let me repeat that: $1.175 trillion.
This figure does not include the nearly [...]

Judd Gregg and Team Obama: A perfect fit

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 2, 2009 08:00 PM

Well, it looks increasingly likely that GOP Sen. Judd Gregg will be named the new Commerce Secretary nominee following the Bill Richardson fiasco. (Update: Gregg accepts.)
Gregg championed the Crap Sandwich and regurgitated every Chicken Little talking point and fiscal myth to sell it:

Gregg then crusaded to release the second half of the Crap Sandwich [...]

Sen. McConnell proposes more Big Government to fix Big Government debacle

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 2, 2009 09:16 AM

Click here for update: McConnell says his “goal is not to kill the bill.”
Where is my Mitch McConnell head-banging graphic? Why did he make me have to dig it up again first thing Monday morning? I can’t take it. I really can’t:

Over the weekend, you see, Sen. McConnell gave the GOP radio address. The subject [...]

Today was a good day for conservatism

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 28, 2009 10:18 PM

I’ve been doing a lot of B.O. (Barack Obama/Bend Over) Republican-bashing the past few weeks. Watching the Republicans crumble on the Geithner and Holder nominations, swoon over The One’s congeniality, and display indecision over the stimulus hasn’t been easy on the stomach or the head.
But credit must be given where it is due. Today was [...]

Obama-fest open thread: What are you doing?

For those of you who have chosen not to partake in the O-fest O-rgy, what are you doing instead?
Tuning in to the Jon and Kate plus 8 marathon? Keeping the TV off completely?
As I noted earlier, I’m diving into the Generational Theft Act of 2009 proposal, which I’m hauling to my daughter’s horse-riding and [...]

The most craptastic Crap Sandwich ever

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 19, 2009 12:08 PM

Hope everyone’s enjoying the Bread and Circuses distraction this week while Congress gets ready to shove the most craptastic Crap Sandwich ever down our throats.
I’m spending the day tuning out the panem et circenses and reading through the stimulus text instead.
You can, too, at the handy site Read The Stimulus.
Power Line has a quick [...]

Bailout failout: GOP measure to stop TARP II goes down

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 15, 2009 05:00 PM

A group of Senate GOP conservatives attempted to stop the Bush/Obama/Reid money grab for the second half of the Crap Sandwich.
The measure went down 42-52. I’ll post the roll call vote when it goes up.
Andrew Moylan at NTU:
The Senate just voted 42-52, FAILING to pass a resolution of disapproval on spending $350 billion more on [...]

Sen. Inhofe’s first YouTube channel vid: Show your TARP rage!

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 12, 2009 05:01 PM

Stalwart GOP conservative Sen. Jim Inhofe was opposed to the Crap Sandwich from the beginning — and has pushed vigorously for a rollback of the massive bailout. Today, he launched his YouTube channel with a salvo aimed at President Bush for moving to free up the rest of the $350 billion in TARP funds. [...]

Christmas bailout gift ideas

Reader Chris: “Has anyone made a dog chew-toy in the shape of a crap sandwich? Maybe put TARP in big letters on it. I figure dogs and dung beetles are the only ones that would actually enjoy a crap sandwich (oddly enough, I think some CEOs and many politicians would fit into either the [...]

Naked Emperor Paulson: Hey, gimme the rest of TARP dough

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 19, 2008 12:31 PM

Some of us saw through Hank Paulson before Crap Sandwich passed. On September 24, I warned about the myriad reasons Hank Paulson needed to be contained.
Congress didn’t listen. Neither did many conservatives who blindly trusted the Naked Emperor.
For those who insist no one could see it coming, well, um, you were wrong. Welcome to the [...]

Obama stimulus plan nears $1 trillion

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 13, 2008 10:10 AM

The Wall Street Journal calls the rapidly expanding Obama stimulus plan “meatier.”
Meatier?
I think they mean crappier.
We’ve graduated from Crap Sandwich to Crap Super Stuffed Sub.
The stimulus boondoggle went from $300 billion to $500 billion to $600 billion to $1 trillion in less than a month.
Give me your over/under that it’ll double by the time [...]
