Audity

I will take this one opportunity to applaud a Philadelphia Eagle. Eagles offensive lineman Evan Mathis posted this photo on Instagram. And when NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell tweeted about it Mathis retweeted…

@nflcommish I’m offended by the actions of Philadelphia Eagle player Evan Mathis peeing on the IRS sign in front of the IRS [...]

Hasan, Shoot?

It appears Hasan may soon be out of a job. From AhramOnline:

A joint Saudi committee composed of representatives of the ministries of interior, justice and health is mulling the replacement of beheading with firing squads for capital sentences due to shortages in government swordsmen, Saudi daily Al-Youm reported on Sunday.

The committee argued [...]

Gooooooooo, victim!!!!!

What do you do when the Department of Defense’s Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute offers nine suggestions on how a bystander should nonviolently deal with rapists … and produce an instructional video to accompany it? Well, if you’re Counter Contempt’s David Stein, you mercilessly expose the DoD/DEOMI for the joke they are … and produce [...]

Let’s Active!

Or maybe not… my headline is this: Michelle Obama Starves Children — the Daily Caller is just a bit more charitable:

A very courageous fifth teacher in the Chicago Public Schools has written a scathing critique of the almost comical misery she and her students endured when they participated in a massive February 28 [...]

U.S. and Them

The latest pre-order from our friends at Unapologetically American/Ranger Up. Dig!

We the People …

Limiting the power of the American people is not what the Founding Fathers had in mind when they wrote the Constitution. We the People, not We the Government.

I would rather drink six razor blades

Young Democrats like Justin Chenette may think their vision of the United States’ future would thrive most effectively in a collectivist environment, but methinks we’ve already seen how that movie ends. Counter Contempt’s David Stein agrees. Be sure to check out the whole column for more nifty-cool historical reminders.

What is wrong, massively, horrifically wrong, [...]

Rationalizing Rationing…

Wesley Smith, posting at The Corner, links to this chilling and infuriating assessment of Obamacare’s coming Medicare Independent “Advisory” Payment Board from American Medical News’ website:

Removing Congress from the Medicare cost-control equation was precisely the intent of the IPAB architects who inserted its authorization into the 2010 health system reform law. Many observers [...]

The Choice This Fall….

Here’s an interesting op-ed from The Daily Mail (UK) on the choice we must make this Fall:

In fact, there is now a well-established career path for the cronies: write the laws surrounding your industry in a lobby shop or congressional office, administer the laws in the bureaucracy, get to know all the players in [...]

The Family Jewels

The French town of Angers, France is claiming that the English owe it an apology, compensation, and the Crown Jewels for the murder of Edward I Plantegenet in 1499 at the hands of Henry VII — a Tudor. From The Daily Mail:

Angers, which is in the Loire Valley west of Paris, was once [...]

The NAACP Hates Black People

From the Daily Caller:

“I believe his vested interests are in white Americans,” Charlette Stoker Manning, the chairwoman of Women in NAACP, told the website BuzzFeed following the Republican candidate’s Wednesday speech in Houston.

“You cannot possibly talk about jobs for black people at the level he’s coming from. He’s talking about entrepreneurship, savings accounts [...]

The Life of Juliette

In the month of July two great, modern, Western nations celebrate the day in the late 1700s when they determined to overthrow a monarchy and pursue self-governance; July 4th and July 14th.  Both nations assembled a body of great thinkers to debate philosophy and determine the best system of governance for their citizens.  One nation’s founding principles [...]

Don’t Get Caught Watchin’ the Paint Dry!

Yesterday we got sucker punched. Yesterday we got caught watching the paint dry. We put all of our eggs in one basket despite the warnings of thousands of years of human history and myriad cliches telling us explicitly to not do just that very thing. I don’t know if John Roberts’ seizure meds affect [...]

And this is why our republic is in crisis. These out of touch mandarins have no qualms taking a nice vacation mostly on our dime.

What Does It All Mean?

Rufus tipped me to this article by Spengler at Pajamas Media and what the Walker victory in Wisconsin as well as the victory yesterday in San Diego and San Jose, CA for the forces who wish (a Democrat Mayor in San Jose and a GOP one in San Diego) to cut back municipal employee [...]

State Succor

Fairly Obvious

BarryO, anytime you want to drop the mask and realize you’re not a modern liberal in any way, shape or form, we’re here with open arms (I’ll always have time for more ZZ Top duets, though). Be sure to visit more of the below awesomeness from Andrew Price in the full column over at [...]

Tar and Feather Time

There’s knowing something and then there’s being shown the facts behind what you know to be true — the proof. The former inspires bitching and moaning around the office or the proverbial water cooler — perhaps it inspires further inquiry. The latter inspires action. Prepare to be inspired to act… from Tax Prof Blog:

Taxmageddon?

I prefer Tarcapades:

As many Americans were scrambling to get this year’s taxes done, analysts were warning about a bigger tax day — what some call a tax Armageddon, or “Taxmageddon,” to characterize its potential effect on the U.S. economy.

At the end of the year, some $500 billion in tax breaks expire all [...]

The Mandarins at GSA

Our tax dollars at work…. From ABCNews Political Punch blog:

The government official on the frontlines of the scandal involving a wasteful government conference, U.S. General Services Administration regional commissioner Jeffrey Neely, will invoke his 5th amendment right against self-incrimination, his lawyer Preston Burton tells ABC News.
