The Lap Dogs Become Attack Dogs

White House ventriloquist dummy Jay Carney suffers the wrath of the White House press corps over their lack of access, and manipulation of the news by the Obama administration.

In case you actually believe in math

The math of Obamacare explained.

Nothing Successful About Obamacare So Far

Explaining Obamacare

The Obama administration is spinning like a dreidel in their attempt to make the implementation of Obamacare look like something less than the complete disaster it is. Some of the news we have so far:

The first week of enrollment for Obamacare, the website either crashed completely or ran so slowly that people played a complete game of Monopoly between pages. The administration had three years to get the website right (twenty times longer than they took to actually think about the legislation.) The Obama administration tries to write off the problems because of the "intense interest" in enrolling, but IT experts disagree. They say the problem is the architecture of the website itself.

Chad Henderson, the Obamacare "hero" who the media swooned over as one of the first enrollees, turned out to be fake. Backtracking on his earlier claim, he never enrolled in an insurance plan. "When I said 'enroll,' I guess I got the terminology wrong. I meant that I was able to actually get in and have access to compare the prices," Chad said.

They don't know how many people have actually enrolled in Obamacare. When asked about the actual number, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew hemmed, hawed, and stonewalled.

Because Obama

From Second City:

We've heard it all before

Wow.

A couple of movies to see before November

And they ridiculed Sarah Palin?

Obama's Vice-President, Joe Biden, doing what he does best. His greatest hits:

Tribute to Muhammad Ali

Who's The Greatest?  Why, it must be this guy:

Obama admits violating the Constitution

Obama has once again done an end-around on Congress by using his office to enact a portion of the DREAM Act that was not passed by that legislative body. Obama is in effect creating laws, the power given solely to Congress in the Constitution. The level of his aggressive use of the Executive Branch's power is unprecedented, but his supporters compare it to Bush's use of "signing statements" to do much the same thing.  Obama ran against that practice when campaigning for President the first time. In 2008 he said, "We've got a government designed by the founders so there would be checks and balances...Part of the theory of Bush is that he can make laws as he's going along. I disagree with that." 

Obama justifies his opinion by citing the fact that he taught the Constitution. If his supposed legal expertise has any credibility at all, then he is precedently admitting that his actions since taking office violate the Constitution.  

Obama's Professor: "He must be defeated"

Wow. A story from the Huffington Post quotes Barack Obama's law professor, who says Obama "must be defeated."  Roberto Unger, a longtime Harvard law professor who taught Obama, cites some of Obama's failures:
"His policy is financial confidence and food stamps."
"He has reduced justice to charity."


Unger approaches this from a "progressive" point of view, but his opinions match many Conservative claims. Oh, there's more. Much more:

Obama's "same tired rhetoric"

The Republican National Committee has produced a video showing Barack Obama giving speeches about financial issues...a year apart. The odd thing?  The speeches are virtually identical.  Watch:

Where's that vaunted Obama "articulateness" and "eloquence" his supporters bragged about? (In fairness, I guess they never said anything about "originality.")

My goal when arguing with a Liberal

"Conan!  What is best in life?"

To crush your enemies,
See them driven before you,
And to hear the lamentation of their women.

Obama: Republicans will make weather forecasts less accurate

...And voting for Obama lowers the sea level and heals the planet.  I'm not sure why we even have elections any more, if what Obama says is true.

Oh.

Operation Hot Mic

Finally someone on the Right produces a parody that's actually humorous.

Only a heartbeat away from the Presidency

Joe Biden, longtime sufferer of foot-in-mouth disease, thanks a soft drink.

The copy key got stuck

...on the presidential speechwriter's keyboard. So says a Danish TV host.  Here's why:



Gosh, I wonder what would have happened in the media if George Bush had got caught doing that?

Who's really unemployed?

This video explains it.

Classiest way to respond to a thoughtless interruption

Way more gracious and spontaneous than I could ever be.

I thought I'd got sick of these things

1. I'm not a Justin Bieber fan.
2. Over-choreographed wedding dances have used up their freshness.
3. Too many people these days want to video themselves, purely to feed their ego.
Having said all that, this one is kind of neat.

Forget "where's our Reagan?" -- Where's our Thatcher??

Smart, well-spoken, quick as a whip and sharp as a tack -- "wiping the floor" with her opposition in debate. That was Margaret Thatcher.
