Russia continues to thumb its nose at us while Syria further implodes and Iran continues enriching both its coffers and plutonium, courtesy of the Obama administration. Our economy continues to languish in the tank. Meanwhile, new revelations have surfaced confirming Hillary Clinton’s role in gun running in Libya — certainly supplying arms to Islamists and perhaps even those who murdered an American diplomat and three other Americans in Benghazi. And just last night, newly leaked emails confirm, by Hillary’s own admission, that she has both “public” and “private” policy positions — a euphemism meaning it’s her regular practice to LIE...

Weinergate is the gift that keeps on giving. A fifth woman, Traci Nobles, has been discovered to have had sexual communication with digital Don Juan, Rep. Anthony Weiner and RadarOnline.com has exclusively obtained emails between the two of them. “Please understand i am a very important man. I'm always busy, but I promise i will make time for you soon!” Weiner wrote to Nobles in an email dated May 6, 2011. “Don't the pictures i send keep you satisfied?” Nobles, 34, is a blonde gym teacher from Athens, Georgia, who also teaches cheerleading at the YWCO — the Young Women’s...

In his apparently full confession yesterday, Rep. Anthony Weiner said that he had never used "government resources" to sext with his gal pals. Sending out lewd photos, he implied, was just some dumb thing he did on his own time. That appears to be another lie. According to Radar Online, one of Weiner's partners said he used to sext with her all the time from his office. She also said that they had phone sex from there. [SNIP] An examination of congressional records, the official bible of the proceedings and debates of the U.S. Congress, has found Rep. Weiner (D-Brooklyn/Queens)...

Rep. Anthony Weiner encouraged a porn star to lie about their on-line relationship and offered her the help of his public relations team, according to a report on Tuesday. Weiner sent emails to former X-rated performer Ginger Lee – to whom he’d previously acknowledged sending innocuous messages via Twitter – coaching her to deny that they had been communicating, reported TMZ, which obtained the messages and says the two had exchanged “scores of sexual emails over a long period of time.” “The key is to have a short, thought out statement that tackles the top line questions and then refer...

Different Look at the Wee-Wee We Are In I’m a conservative and have a lens that I look through which breaks things down in terms of left and right, because it clearly fits the times we are living in. Yet this morning as I was sipping my coffee looking at the story in which the Department of Labor is reporting inflation but it is not being reported. This started a process of thinking that also fits the times we are living in. I have an uncle Ed who was a very successful attorney, retired very wealthy yet in his later...

White House (CNSNews.com) – President Barack Obama is “quite comfortable” with the prospect of being a one-term president in order to address the issues he is concerned about, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Friday. The comment came on the same day the president’s approval reached a new low, with only a 45 percent approval rating in the Zogby International poll released Friday. The poll said that 51 percent disapprove of the president’s job performance. The Real Clear Politics average of all polls puts the president approval rating at 52.2 percent. Gibbs was addressing a question about a comment...

President Barack Obama puzzled people when he said Washington "gets all wee-weed up." The White House offered a translation Friday: Folks are wetting the bed over the healthcare debate. White House press secretary Robert Gibbs was asked during his daily on-camera briefing what Obama meant on Thursday when he decried the way his push for an ambitious healthcare overhaul had been played in the media. "There's something about August going into September where everybody in Washington gets all wee-weed up," Obama told an audience at the Democratic National Committee headquarters. "I don't know what it is. But that's what happens."...

As an attempt to concentrate America's minds on the greater goal, it could have gone better. During his remarks at a national health care forum, the president came out with this: "There's something about August going into September where everybody in Washington gets all wee-weed up. I don't know what it is. But that's what happens." He wasn't the only one who was confused. Jimmie Bise gave it to him straight: “Really, Mr. President? Wee-weed? What in the blue hells does that mean?” Meanwhile, Michelle Malkin was wracking her brains: “Is this some Chicago phrase I don’t know about? Is...

Robert Gibbs says "wee weed up" means when "people get overly nervous over something that still has a long way to go." He added "bed wetting" would be the more "consumer friendly term."

Mired in the summer of his discontent, President Obama on Thursday coined a new phrase for the absurdity of a Washington August, when lawmakers and lobbyists vacation outside the Beltway but pollsters and chatterers go right on polling and chattering. "There's something about August going into September where everybody in Washington gets all wee-wee'd up," the world's most powerful man observed. "I don't know what it is, but that's what happens." So, it made perfect sense that, during wee wee'd Washington's "silly season," the president took to the conservative radio airwaves to declare that he wants a bipartisan fix for...

LETTER FROM EUROPE The Continental Dream: Will the French Shatter It? By ELAINE SCIOLINO Published: April 13, 2005 PARIS, April 12 - Historically, the French have liked the idea of a united Europe as long as they could run it. France, after all, was a founding member of the six-country European Coal and Steel Community, which was the precursor to today's 25-country union. But in a brutal shock to the European experiment, 11 opinion polls in France in the last month have indicated that the French are poised to vote no in the national referendum on May 29 on Europe's...

<p>Even after winning acquittal by a jury Tuesday, St. Louis Alderman Irene Smith would not discuss whether she urinated behind a makeshift screen to avoid yielding the floor during a stormy aldermanic debate last year.</p> <p>"Whatever it was, I cannot say," Smith said as she left the Municipal Courts Building.</p>

Just get me in there...I know the short future...my friends.

A Slate employee—we'll call him "Thad"—asks the sports department to solve a problem that has been vexing him: Why does he have trouble urinating at ballparks? His testimony, worded as delicately as possible, goes like this: At a Seattle Mariners game, Thad slugged down several ballpark beverages. Later, he shuffled into the restroom, angled toward the urinals, unzipped his trousers, and then … nothing. Not a drop. Embarrassed and in acute pain, he waddled back to his seat, where he spent the remaining innings swaying like Stevie Wonder in front of a piano. After polling some of the country's pre-eminent...
