The long list of troubles for New York's one-man corruption machine is mind-boggling. Today we get news that Rangel's 2007 income somehow jumped anywhere from $500,000 to $1 million higher than he originally reported. Among the new items on Rangel’s amended 2007 financial disclosure report were an account at the Congressional Federal Credit Union worth at least $250,000, an investment account with at least $250,000, land in southern New Jersey and stock in PepsiCo and fast food conglomerate Yum! Brands. None of those investments appeared on the original report, which was filled out by hand and filed in May 2008....

It seems most people are in favor of holding onto our little slice of island paradise, our island retreat from the stress of jihad. Add closing Gitmo to the growing list of harebrained Obama schemes to remake America that are being soundly rejected by the American people... One of the more interesting things to note about President Obama is that ideas that once sounded fairly reasonable to many people no longer sound so good once he gets into the details. Lots of good news in the poll results. If Obama had to spend ten minutes explaining why it was a...

Do you remember what Barack Obama's number one goal was, while he was campaigning? It wasn't national socialized health care. It wasn't Cap and Tax. No, his number one goal was to soak the rich. Sure, he didn't put it that way. But his obsession with reducing income inequality can only be achieved by limiting the prosperity and wealth of the rich. Senator Barack Obama says the top priority of the next president should be to create a more lasting and equitable prosperity than achieved by either President Bush in the current decade or even Bill Clinton in the 1990s......

A guest post by conservative author and talk radio host Paul A. Ibbetson. "If discussions between the public and political talkers on these important issues, and others, are to cease from the conservative radio dial, it may come from the congressionally un-restrained and free-wheeling hands of the Czars. How so? Let me share it with you - while the sharing is still legal. For talk radio, this would come from the newly conceived position of the FCC diversity Czar..."

This latest poll shows more slippage in public opinion on Obama and health reform. This revealing map shows that the Democrat leadership is largely out of touch with the plain folks who their Blue Dog brethren must listen to. Disaster is about to strike the Democrat Party, and it's gonna be a lot of fun to watch.

Obama will tell you that this video is a "Fabrication" or a "distraction."

Where exactly are we supposed to find a suitable replacement for a drunk, womanizing, homicidal, traitor to his country?

Let's put this amazing display of BS in perspective. Barack Obama spent 20 years in the pews of a racist church, listening to a bile-spewing hate-mongering socialist tool. He came to the church after hearing an inspirational message about a world "where white folks' greed runs a world in need." This man, who by all rights should be ignored on all questions of faith, today called on people of faith to wholly ignore everything that their Bible teaches them, and willfully turn private enterprise over to the control of a greedy Caesar. President Barack Obama on Wednesday tried to retake...

This is awesome. Shep lividly and repeatedly holds this guy's feet to the fire demanding to know how the public option is no longer essential to a plan that Barack Obama would sign, when Obama campaigned that it was. Eight minutes of relentlessness.

Democrats took control of the state Senate in January, for the record, giving Dems total control of both houses and the governorship of New York for the first time since the Great Depression. Isn't it interesting how Democrat control and depression seem to go hand in hand? Could it be there's something to learn from that? Who thinks 2010 is going to make 1994 look like a minor scuffle, instead of the bloodbath it was? The American people have gotten a small taste of the Dems lust for power, big government, big spending, and the people's paychecks. A small bite,...

Barack Obama's sheer audacity in demonstrating his callous disregard and distaste for average, hard-working Americans knows no boundaries. Never is this more true than when he's attempting to demonize one segment of the population in order to play one group of people against another, a tactic which is growing old in a hurry. Investors Business Daily noted the following today: Speaking in New Hampshire last week, Obama said "family care" physicians collect "$30,000, $40,000, $50,000" for amputations while the reimbursement for helping patients lose weight, watch their diets and monitor their medication is "a pittance." You can read at the...

If you haven't seen this video, you've got to check it out. Even non-football fans have said that they thought it was awesome. These are the sickest tricks and skill displays I've ever seen.

Don Campbell of USA Today asks the question in this piece. I believe the answer is "yes." "Many commentators haughtily questioned Palin's political sanity for resigning the governorship, but their underlying message was "she's toast" and "good riddance." This about a politician who is 45 years old and has been known to most Americans for less than a year. So here's a minority view: Barring some unrevealed scandal, I believe she's not only a prime candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, but she could be a formidable general election contender as well — if she's willing to take her time...

A guest post from conservative author and talk show host Paul A. Ibbetson, on the Gates ordeal. In the wake of Gatesgate, both Barack Obama and professor Gates should be taken to task as premeditated race conflict builders. For those who wish to deny the social advances this country has made over the decades, my personal law enforcement background will no doubt be a disqualifier of my right to speak on this issue. But before you condemn me, let me defend Barack Obama. You can decide for yourself if the President of the United States should be more restrained when...

Thanks to peace-loving, gun control liberals in LA County, it is now more likely than ever that the streets of LA with remain covered in the blood of the innocent.

Perhaps they wouldn't all word it that way. Maybe they just think the President is a moron, and I can't say I could blame them for thinking that. And, of course, some don't care. They know he lied about taxes during the campaign, but it's not his fault, it's not like you can call yourself a socialist ahead of time, and still get elected. The important thing is that the rolls of the Kool Aid drinkers continues to dwindle, and most people now accept that the will be taxed up the wazoo if ObamaCare passes. No matter what their income:...

You've probably seen the video of Conyers chuckling off the mere thought of reading a bill. What you may not know, is that Conyers own resume says he ought to be the perfect person to do so. You might say that perhaps people thought they might be getting someone fluent in legalese when they elected a hotshot lawyer. It seems as if he was once a brave and honorable man. Now he can't even be bothered to read the laws that his constituents will be forced to live under... More history, and the video, at the link.

In case you missed it, the Obama administration challenged the Congressional Budget Office's ObamaCare cost predictions on Saturday. White House budget director Peter Orszag criticized the CBO after it issued a cost estimate that halted momentum for an independent Medicare panel that Obama wants. Orszag accused the CBO of exaggerating the future costs of the current proposal, which the CBO estimates at nearly $240 biilion over the next ten years. Yeah, because we all know that government programs regularly cost less money than expected, right? Not exactly. Turns out, CBO estimates are kinda like the first quote your mechanic gives...

On a positive note for Specter, at least he's still more popular with voters than the President's stimulus plan. The numbers may even be worse than they look for Democrats. As the economy continues to worsen, the party will be down in 2010, and now that he's switched sides, Specter is the only option. "My colleague Greg Giroux reported yesterday that Specter's campaign had to give back nearly $225,000 to donors, most of it to his Republican supporters, following his party switch. One silver lining for Specter: He holds a powerful lead over his most notable prospective Democratic primary challenger,...

They hate us for our freedom. This is an outrage! Of course, it happened in Canada, not the U.S. But with the Obama administration importing all Canuckleheaded ideas lately, surely the days when it is safe for you to peaceably drive your car while watching porn are numbered. "Call it another reminder to keep your eyes on the road and both hands on the wheel. A Mississauga man got caught by Northumberland OPP Saturday after another driver complained about a speeding car with a driver watching a porno movie." You've got to admire the Eh-hole writer for a quality lead,...
