Obama 'ready to go' and 'fired up' by life-changing woman whose name he can't be bothered to remember

Obama closed his Labor Day speech today to the members of the AFL-CIO in Cincinnati, Ohio — a state whose coal industry he has declared he intends to destroy — who were gathered for their Labor Day picnic by telling the story of a woman in Greenwood, South Carolina, who had inspired him during his …

My Obama Prevarication Predictor predicted lies about Sarah Palin today and Levi Johnson delivered

I can’t resist noting that I predicted on Aug. 24 that Obama was tanking and that Obama’s minions see to it that a big lie about Gov. Sarah Palin usually follows within about 48 to 72 hours any bad news about Obama that is dominating the news shows. Well, the lie was postponed since Ted …

Obama retreating from the public option? Don't you believe it!

My Obama Prevarication Predictor says that whenever a consensus develops opposing anything Obama favors, within 72 hours of the consensus developing he will announce he either no longer wants the thing OR that he is the personification of reason and compromise over the thing — whatever “the thing” du jour is. Currently it is the …

Obama's tedious Ted Kennedy eulogy compared to the real eloquence that preceded him

If Obama has any sense at all, for the rest of his life he will resent the humiliation of having followed genuinely eloquent and inspiring men as the final eulogist at Sen.

Why, it even leaves out tort reform. However, the column takes a mordant turn at the end when Dr. Krauthammer notes that such a …

Obama's tanking, so expect a lie about Gov. Palin in 3, 2, 1 …

The Obama playbook calls for a big media distraction from stories about his tanking popularity and cries of outrage with his performance now emanating from the Left, of all places — see here, here and here. So, I am updating my Obama Prevarication Predictor to add that within 72 hours of the release of really …

Obama's hit -14 and Dan explains why he's 'bust-o'

OK, given that my previous post was all about bare breasts, I could not resist using Dan Collins’ blog headline “Bust-o” for this one telling you to go read his post set off by a piece at Politico that Dan found deficient. It is a thorough, well-supported and extremely satisfying shellacking. Here is a sample: …

Bookworm finds a description of Obama in Jane Austen's 'Persuasion'

Over at Right Wing News, Bookworm has some apt then-and-now musings: There’s a reason for my little extended meditation on Obama’s personality as it first appeared and as it actually is. For my own pleasure, I’ve been rereading Jane Austen’s Persuasion, which stands second only to Pride & Prejudice in my estimation. P&P is a …
