“In 2003, he was named one of PEOPLE magazine’s ‘Sexiest Men Alive’ and a ‘pop culture icon’ by USA Today.”

How do you spell tacky?
Q-V-C in D.C. They’re coming to the presidential inauguration. It’s a perfect match — the relentless hawkers at the shopping network and the relentless money-grubbers at Team Obama still pimping pins and other knick-knacks after the election.
QVC is traveling to Washington to mark President-elect Barack Obama’s inauguration this month — [...]

Role model: WWBD?

Hmmm. I wonder if Trinity United will participate in this Library of Congress project to gather Barack Obama-centered sermons for posterity. Also: Imagine if McCain had won and the LoC proposed gathering sermons praising his inauguration. When churches say anything remotely positive about a Republican president, it’s an unconscionable violation of the separation of church [...]

The latest mass e-mail from the Obama perpetual fund-raising machine. It doesn’t end.
Your ticket to history
michelle –
Barack Obama will be sworn in as President of the United States of America on January 20th, 2009.
It will be an unprecedented event in the history of our country, and hundreds of thousands of people will come together in [...]

That Obama campaign line about how electing John McCain would mean four more years of Bush is getting more snort-worthy every day.
After retaining President Bush’s Defense Secretary, we now learn that Obama is keeping on most of Bush’s political appointees at the Pentagon. WT’s Bill Gertz reports:
Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates has asked most [...]

I’ve obtained documents sent to a reader in response to his FOIA request regarding the creation of Barack Obama’s Change.gov website. It gives you the rest of the story. You’ll recall last month that I blogged several questions about the propriety of allowing the perpetual Obama campaign to use a .gov domain name for what [...]

Sins of omission.

Sacrilege.

My syndicated column today puts the screws on Clintonite Carol Browner, rumored to be Obama’s choice for energy czar. She’s not so fresh and so clean. And conservatives should raise their voices for, you know, real change.

Same old, same old.

Blowin’ more smoke?

The guy who wants to declare the first Tuesday in November “Barack Obama Day” hasn’t given up. Apparently, Baltimore is next on the target list. From WBAL via Inside Charm City:
A civil rights activist from Topeka, Kansas said that America grew up on November 4, 2008 and looked past race and gender, and to recognize [...]

The high court makes a decision, but the conspiracies will never end.
You know my position on this matter.
Now, the Supreme Court has weighed in:
The Supreme Court has turned down an emergency appeal from a New Jersey man who says President-elect Barack Obama is ineligible to be president because he was a British subject at [...]

He’s got gobs of cash and lots of grumbly Democrats who want to get their paws on it all.
Legally, he can:
1) donate the extra money to charity
2) Transfer it to another political campaign
3) Dole it out in $2,000 increments to local candidates.
What to do? What to do?
Democrats carrying significant campaign debt after winning a string [...]

Did you know that Sarah Palin-haters are still trying to prove she didn’t give birth to her youngest son, Trig? These tinfoil hat-wearers are as obnoxious and unhinged as the 9/11 Truth cultists who insist that America engineered the jihadi attacks on [...]

Just thought you might be interested in what Barack Obama’s friendly neighborhood terrorist is up to these days.
Reader Tom B., a student at Florida State University, e-mails: “Our Student Government passed a resolution tonight allocating $5000 of the University’s money to pay William Ayers to speak at our school under the guise of ‘education reform.’ [...]

O come let us adore Him.

Fizzy.

“Obama for America,” the permanent fund-raising entity for The Cult, sent out yet another solicitation this evening — this time for a “limited edition” holiday pin.
Nope, it’s not made out of rhodium.
The pitch:
Make a Donation Today and Get Your Official Obama Pin
This holiday season, celebrate our historic victory with a limited edition Obama lapel [...]

Blowing smoke.

Billary is comin’ to town.

The Clintons refused to tell the public who was donating millions upon millions of dollars to Billy Boy’s charitable foundation and library fund during her presidential run. But in a deal with Team Obama, this long-sought-after disclosure is apparently the price they are willing to pay to secure her Secretary of State nomination.
It will [...]

Keeping in touch with the little people.

Hey, remember that campaign line Barack Obama used incessantly throughout the campaign — you know, the one deriding McCain as a Bush clone and mocking a McCain win as “four more years of Bush?”
You remember, right?
The One: “I can take 4 more weeks of McCain’s attacks, but America can’t take 4 more years of failed [...]

There’s a lot to choose from, I know. But these five snort-worthy — no, gag-worthy — words from Barack Obama’s radio address over the weekend will be hard to beat:
“A government that spends wisely.”

“Fresh new way.”

Smarty pants. Panting smarty.

Testing, testing…

The more things change…

The wages of “diversity.”
