Beltway Christmas: Cash for corruptocrats
My column looks at the year in Washington political bribery. And what a year it was for the Beltway’s reverse Santa Clauses, who are suspended simultaneously in mental states of denial and indignation. Democrat Sen. Mary “Louisiana Purchase” Landrieu defended her payoff while declaring that she “can’t be bought.”Democrat Sen. Tom “Iowa Bounty” Harkin dismissed [...]
$6 billion payoff: Barney Frank gives in to Congressional Black Caucus shakedown crew
Cue up “Do the Hustle.” Looks like the extortionists of the Congressional Black Caucus got their way.
Last week, I noted the CBC’s efforts to squeeze bailout money from the Democrats’ financial “reform” package for minority-owned businesses — specifically, the failing radio/media empire of former Malcolm X lawyer and Air America/Jesse Jackson/Al Sharpton/Charlie Rangel crony Percy [...]
Memorial for Lakewood PD officers expected to draw 20,000-plus
Faces of the fallen: Sgt. Mark Renninger, 39; Officers Ronald Owens, 37; Tina Griswold, 40; Gregory Richards, 42.
Local businesses in the Seattle/Tacoma area have pulled together to donate their time and services for the Lakewood PD officers memorial today. Costco, Sysco, and Food Services of America have donated food for officers’ family members. Culinary students [...]
The war on cops
Maurice Clemmons had many enablers — starting in Arkansas with clemency-crazy Mike Huckabee and stretching to Washington state where he was surrounded by people who witnessed his threats against law enforcement and did nothing to stop the Lakewood PD massacre. This week, police charged four family and friends with aiding him and plan to indict [...]
Congressional Black Caucus pushes bailout for Air America/Sharpton/Jackson crony
Percy Sutton and Malcolm X, 1963.
Well, well, well.
The Congressional Black Caucus is trying to shake down the White House — and taxpayers — by holding a Democrat financial regulation “reform” bill hostage until Team Obama stuffs it with taxpayer goodies for a minority-owned radio station and other minority-owned businesses.
The story is here and here. [...]
Racial terror in Denver that won’t make national news
P.C. strikes again.
Clownifying education reform again
Ugh. Here comes the traveling Obama education circus again. This time, in Baltimore:
The odd couple of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and the Rev. Al Sharpton will bring their quest for education reform to Baltimore on Friday.
Gingrich and Sharpton are on a three-city “listening and learning” tour to find out which school strategies are working [...]
Visitor logs: Knock, knock, knockin’ on Barry’s door
Who’s there?
NYT columnist Frank Rich has the heebie-jeebies
Nightmare on Eighth Avenue.
Newt for 2012? No, thanks.
The most prominent GOP endorser of radical leftist NY-23 congressional candidate Dede Scozzafava is openly musing about running for president in 2012.
No, thanks:
Callista and I are going to think about this in February 2011. And we are going to reach out to all of our friends around the country. And we’ll decide, if there’s a [...]
Dallas Tea Party activists push back against Gingrich’s straw men
Call them out.
Message to GOP: Can you hear conservatives now?; Update: Palin is listening
Scroll down for updates…Palin endorses conservative Doug Hoffman…
From reader Barnaby, who sent back his crossed-out Republican solicitation forms with a “NO RINOS” sticky note for Newt Gingrich:
From reader K., a message to GOP Rep. Jeb Hensarling’s office:
As you’ve hopefully figured out by now, your boss really stepped in it with the endorsement of this left-winger [...]
Dear Newt Gingrich: Meet Ronald Reagan
So, Newt Gingrich is invoking Reagan to defend his endorsement of radical leftist Dede Scozzafava in the NY-23 special congressional election?
Triple-gag:
“If you seek to be a perfect minority, you’ll remain a minority,” says Gingrich. “That’s not how Reagan built his revolution or how we won back the House in 1994.”
Let’s quote Reagan back to Gingrich, [...]
Yes, let’s talk about Al Sharpton’s racial demagoguery, shall we?
Here is Al Sharpton fuming over Rush Limbaugh calling him out on his poisonous career of racial demagoguery:
“He doesn’t have the right to lie and accuse people of crimes,” Sharpton said.
Yes, Al Sharpton, perpetrator of the Tawana Brawley racial hoax crime, is braying about false criminal allegations. The charlatan knows no shame.
Sharpton says he’s going [...]
An ACORN-Friendly, Big Labor-Backing, Tax-and-Spend Radical in GOP Clothing
Yes, it’s time for the upside-down elephant. The Stupid Party is at it again. The subject of today’s column: An abomination in the NY23 special congressional race to replace former GOP Rep. John McHugh, who accepted President Obama’s Army Secretary position. Way to go, Beltway GOP establishment. Grass-roots fiscal conservatives are fired up over ACORN, [...]
A teachable moment: Racial thuggery in St. Louis; Updated
This is absolutely horrifying for any parent to watch. STLToday.com reports that police say the black-on-white student beating was completely unprovoked and racially motivated. Watch as many students cheer the attack — and the bus driver is nowhere to be seen:
Gateway Pundit Jim Hoft wonders where Al Sharpton is.
I wonder where President Obama will be. [...]
Newt Gingrich on the couch with Obama & Al Sharpton
This is what happens when you get too much Beltway on the brain.
Newt Gingrich — who sidled up on a couch with Nancy Pelosi for one of Al Gore’s global warming ad campaigns — championed President Obama’s education speech today.
Subtext be damned.
Gingrich, you should know, has been on a summer road trip with police-bashing, [...]
The anti-police bigotry of the Left
Who’s surprised that President Obama trashed police officers as “stupid” on national TV and implied they were racist despite “not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that?”
This is Barack Obama, friend of cop-targeting domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, whose door sports a picture of convicted cop killer Mumia [...]
Let’s mourn the real American heroes
My column below memorializes some true American heroes whose funerals won’t get wall-to-wall cable coverage. But first I wanted to share an e-mail from reader Noelle, who wrote me yesterday:
We spent a nailbiting Sunday wondering if one of the men killed at [Combat Outpost] Zerok in Afghanistan on July 4th was our son. God [...]
Sheila Jackson-Lee hits rock bottom; Update: Video added
Oh, Sheila.
Stupidest House resolution ever
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee has authored a congressional resolution honoring Michael Jackson.
Seriously.
You can read the whole thing here.
As The Hill’s Eric Zimmermann notes, it’s looooong.
Sample:
Whereas Michael Jackson began his stellar recording career as the featured member of ‘The Jackson 5′, which was the first act in recorded history to have [...]
Race hustler does freak dance for Jacko
Shame on.
U.S. Marine Corps Col. Kenneth L. Reusser, R.I.P.
Ugh. I am so maddeningly sick of the never-ending Michael Jackson circus, sucking up all the MSM oxygen and drawing out all the race hustlers and cable TV rats. Al Sharpton. Jesse Jackson. Celebrity lawyers. Sewage on parade.
Here’s a man whose legacy and name you should tell your children about instead: U.S. Marine Corps Col. [...]
Where was Bozo the VP today?
Plus: Guess who else schmoozed with Sharpton?
Attention, Eric Holder: Let’s talk about the bigots in Detroit
Nolan Finley has a very brave piece in the Detroit News today on the rampant racism on the Detroit City Council.
He calls out black nationalism in the corrupted city government and ponders what would happen if roles were reversed.
Attorney General Eric Holder, we won’t hold our breath waiting for your comment.
Read the whole thing:
Nowhere is [...]
The Washington Post’s comical preemptive apology
Monkeying around.
Washington Post editors very afraid Al Sharpton will come after them next; Update: WaPo’s Howard Kurtz calls apology “odd”
“Monkey business.”
Going ape over the NYPost, Part II: The mau-mau-ers are insatiable
You cannot appease racial grievance-mongers. This man’s appetite for destruction is insatiable.
You can take them to dinner, put them on TV, give them awards, welcome them to the White House (!), bow and scrape, and kiss their rings.
But it will never, never be enough.
Al Sharpton and the rest of the demagogues are still going ape [...]
Going ape over the New York Post
B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
