Brandon Darby 2012
Brandon Darby is probably not a name you are familiar with. After you read this you will wonder why you aren’t familiar with him. His story, to say the least, is fascinating. I met Brandon when he spoke at BlogCon a few weeks ago. The short version is this. Darby was approached by the FBI in late 2007 and asked to infiltrate a group of Leftwing anarchists Austin activists planning to protest and disrupt the 2008 Republican National Convention in Minneapolis, Minn. Based on information Darby provided, FBI ...
In gaging the reaction to Obama’s announcement of his support of gay marriage, I thought it might be interesting to hear the opinion of black voices across our country. Although it was easy to find black pastors who differed with Pres. Obama because of their Christian faith (Imagine! Pastors choosing the gospel over Obama!), I thought Carl Jeffers brought up an interesting point as well. He prefaces this by saying that it’s clear to him that whether Obama wins re-election or not, our next President after him will be white, ...
From The Daily.com:
(On) a cold December Sunday in the 1980s Romney got a phone call from a Mormon bishop in Utah who said the adult daughter of one of his members — a single mother who did not belong to the church — needed help. The woman’s heating oil had been turned off in the dead of winter.
Enlisting his young sons to help, Romney loaded up his Gran Torino with firewood and drove the car from the family’s generous house in the leafy Boston suburb of Belmont to the woman’s ...
When the Obama administration is not even fooling the most liberal of magazines, you know they have a problem:
The Obama administration wants Americans to realize what a good job they and the Bush administration did saving the economy from a second Great Depression. But they’d prefer not to make this case directly. They want journalists to do it for them.
The journalists in the room justifiably focused their questions on things that the Obama administration and the Treasury Department have not done well enough: helping struggling homeowners, lowering unemployment, and moving ...
Ann Romney had a very good two days. It all started with Hilary Rosen, Democrat strategist, saying Ann Romney couldn’t comment on economic issues because “she has never worked a day in her life.” Oh boy, for a PR girl, that was incredibly stupid. You don’t diss Moms. Any mother, working or not, will tell you how difficult it is to stay home with small children. Not only that, as a stay at home Mom myself, I know that like me, most stay at home Moms make most of the ...
I found it truly strange that Pres. Obama would scold the Supreme Court before they made a decision on Obamacare, but it’s even stranger that WaPo liberal columnist, Ruth Marcus, who adores Obamacare and Obama, would scold the President.
Obama’s assault on “an unelected group of people” stopped me cold. Because, as the former constitutional law professor certainly understands, it is the essence of our governmental system to vest in the court the ultimate power to decide the meaning of the constitution. Even if, as the president said, it ...
So, now the Supreme Court has heard the arguments for Obamacare, and even liberal CNN analyst and lawyer Jeff Toobin saw it as a “train wreck.”
Why? Charles Krauthammer has the best summary I’ve seen: (emphasis mine)
Obamacare was carefully constructed to manipulate the standard ten-year cost projections of the CBO. Because benefits would not fully kick in for four years, President Obama could trumpet ten-year gross costs of less than $1 trillion — $938 billion, to be exact.
But now that the near-costless years 2010 and 2011 have elapsed, the true ...
Blake Koch is a young NASCAR driver who filmed this ad to get NASCAR fans to vote. ESPN rejected it saying it had “religious and political overtones.” It CLEARLY has no religious overtones whatsoever, and other than encouraging people to vote, it has no political overtones. It doesn’t endorse a party or a person. BUT Blake is an outspoken Christian, and his personal website reflects that. ESPN mentioned his website on the message they left saying they were rejecting his ad. This is nothing more than Christian bigotry, and it’s ...

I don’t watch R rated movies. I’ve just found that I don’t like the filth in so many of them. I have never allowed my kids to see R rated movies as long as they were living in my house. But I made an exception last night. I took my 15 year son to see “Act Of Valor.” My 19 year son went with us as well, but for my youngest, it was a big deal. Mom was letting him see R rated movie! *Gasp* The R rating was for ...
