Deadly Betrayal In Benghazi

Four Americans were betrayed and left to die in Benghazi, while Team Obama sat on their collective thumbs watching the 9/11 terrorist attack on the US consulate unfold.

Pizza, Pot And Politics

I’m all for a robust GOTV effort, but a push in Eagle Rock, Calif., took it to a new, um, high: Fliers offering $40 worth of free medical-grade marijuana were reportedly passed out in Eagle Rock to try and draw residents to vote in the local election. Was the free pot an incentive to get […]

Building The Case For Abstinence

Of the pseudo sexual-electoral type, that is, via the latest desperation ad from the Obama campaign that manages to grossly insult young women as it tries to woo their vote. The spot, featuring Lena Dunham from the HBO series Girls is laced with double entendre that simultaneously plays ditzy and creepy as it conflates a young […]

The Best Debate Nobody Saw

That would be the one that didn’t focus on Big Bird, binders, and bayonets; the one where candidates, instead, held forth on trifling matters like federal laws that allow for the indefinite detention of American citizens without charge or trial.

Queen City DNC: Broken Promises And Loads Of Debt

Despite repeated assurances from party leaders that fundraising for the Democratic National Convention would meet its budget, coupled with endless promises and pledges to steer clear of corporate cash and lobbyist loot, reports filed with the Federal Election Commission show the Queen City bash came up woefully short on both fronts.

Roasted And Toasted

The One and the other one took a quasi break from the campaign trail to yuk it up and trade a few barbs at the annual Al Smith Dinner, a white-tie shindig at New York’s Waldorf-Astoria hotel that raises money for Catholic charities in honor of former New York Gov. Al Smith, the first Catholic […]

Doubling Down On Dumb

“I mean, I had a friend who said, ‘You don’t just pick the winners and losers, you pick the losers.’ This is not the kind of policy you want to have if you want to get American energy secure.” ~ Mitt Romney, during the first Presidential debate, lambasting the Obama administration for doling out billions […]
