WORLD: An Ill Wind Blows
There’s an ill wind blowing, both from the from the clean-energy program from last year’s Stimulus and from some of Obama’s erstwhile Democrats in the Senate. It’s carrying the wreak of failure and internal dissent straight into the face of President Obama and his Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner.
It seems that the renewable energy grants included in the Stimulus are stimulating other countries’ economies instead America’s and various Democrats in the...

WORLD: The Nuclear Option
As all who pay even the slightest of attention to American politics know, the Democrats attempting to rule this nation are seriously considering using the Budget Reconciliation Process aka the “Nuclear Option” to ram ObamaCare through now that they’ve lost their supermajority in the Senate with the election of Sen.

WORLD: Backing And Filling
Seeing fear in one’s enemies is always a joyful thing. When that enemy is Nancy Pelosi it’s even better since she’s barely able to mouth a rational string of jabber when she’s not backing and filling and trying in vain to save her worthless, wrinkled, traitorous ass.
That’s just too funny! Pelosi claiming that she and her Liberal cabal have anything in common with the Americans in the Tea Party Movement.
Give it up, Nancy. You can back and fill or...

WORLD: Nigerian Coup
A few overseas sources are reporting that there is currently a coup underway in Niger. Forces – currently unidentified – are trying to forcibly remove the quasi-dictator Mamadou Tandja from power. It seems to be a coup d’état as opposed to a general uprising since smoke is reported to be coming from Tandja’s palace but there are no report of general violence beyond the normal “background noise” of Nigerian society.
Supposedly Tandja’s guardsmen...

WORLD: As America Meddles
While most Americans are completely unaware of the fact that Ukraine is not only facing its worst financial crisis since its official inception, but Sunday's election is being sold to its citizens as their only chance at fixing this crisis. Likewise, Americans are most likely oblivious to the fact that the current government is a puppet government installed by the USA.

WORLD: King Barack?
During President George W. Bush’s tenure as POTUS there were many Liberals who liked to deride him by calling him, “King George,” and were often found whining and gnashing their teeth over his “Imperial Presidency.” Those were doing so claimed that their issue was that President Bush was expanding the powers of the Presidency, largely through the profligate use of Executive Orders to bypass the will of Congress.
One is forced to wonder if any of these myrmidons...
