After President Barack Obama gave his 2013 State of the Union address, Florida Senator Marco Rubio delivered the Republican response. Obama offered government activism. Rubio extolled free enterprise. This is a worthy "national conversation." The liberal Obama media instead obsessed over Rubio reaching for a cup of water during his speech. Liberals called it a gaffe. CNN even speculated this could end his political career. As expected, Obamatrons piled on. A speech contrasting the Reagan world vision with European social democracy governance favored by Obama was lost in the fog of MSNBC, CNN, and liberal comedians.

In response, make fun of the teleprompter and all the dumb things he has said. Have a list on the ready.

It never ceases to amaze how ´mainstream media´ can lose IQ points at a rate 1 times the general population...
Of course, it could all just be institutionalized dishonesty. Or as they called it in the former Soviet Union - government propaganda via Pravda...
Media in the US is currently functioning at about a 5th grade intellectual level. Guess that´s their target audience.

All who read this abhor what´s going on and agree. But more will not. The like-minded are shouting at each other in a circle--to what effect? We have a civil war ahead of us--or a collapse. Perhaps the latter is to be preferred.

The fact that the HateAmericaMedia has Palinized Rubio is no surprise.
Birthed, as they were in their mass production Journo schools, each identical to the other, they are only carrying through the programming they have been hard-wired with. It´s not like they have the capability of rational thought.

Hillary Clinton is running for President in 2016. Her silence gives it away. Rand Paul made his intentions clear by boisterously launching a filibuster against CIA appointee John Brennan and making a stand on immigration. He has been on the cover of newspapers and magazines, making proactive speeches and commenting on the statements of others. He is, clearly, positioning for a run in 2016.

During the 2012 Republican National Convention, I had the pleasure of interviewing former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. This was a “walk and talk” interview. He was in high demand from virtually every media outlet, yet was still gracious enough to do several quick interviews with ordinary citizens.

Washington - The Ready for Hillary Pac can count long time Clinton adviser James Carville as one of the faithful. Carville sent out an email blast to announce his getting in line saying, “I’m not going to waste my time writing you about how great Hillary is or how formidable she’d be – you know it all already. But it isn’t worth squat to have the fastest car at the racetrack if there ain’t any gas in the tank — and that’s why the work that Ready for Hillary PAC is doing is absolutely critical. We need to convert the hunger that’s out there for Hillary’s candidacy into a real grassroots organization.”

HONOLULU - If you voted for the Libertarian presidential candidate in last year’s election over Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, you now officially have the right to declare “Don’t blame me, I voted for Gary Johnson!” It’s time for Americans to finally be honest about the true direction our nation is headed. There is a detestable, cancerous, elitist outlook in Washington D.C. that is marching America in quicktime step to the destruction of our way of life and the death knell of our Republic.

This week’s anti-libertarian nonsense is “libertarians are heartless.” There are many variations on this theme. Libertarians oppose government-run education so they must not want poor people to get an education. They oppose government-run healthcare so they must want poor, sick people to die. They oppose government-subsidized housing so they must want poor people to be homeless, too (if they aren’t already). Libertarians are selfish, amoral…You get it.

New York - The positive message that carried the 2012 national election for Barack Obama and Joe Biden was simple: “Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive”. Now we know the slogan that swayed 65.4 million Obama-Biden voters is one part false premise, the other part whopping lie. Events since September 11, 2012 prove that killing Bin Laden has not brought decisive victory in the War against Al Qaeda and allied adherents to militant Islam. Moreover, preliminary disclosures made February 14, 2013 by General Motors show that America’s largest vehicle producer

Michelle Obama has admitted that she is already tired of the bangs she first sported in January. The First Lady said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight: ´Bangs are a day-by-day proposition. They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter. But I´ve long felt we lack a solid theoretical underpinning for easily discussing these issues, and why precisely it is that

"I don´t understand it," the Arizona Republican said on Sunday of the threat coming from Sen. Rand Paul,Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Mike Lee and nine other Republicans. "The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.” "What are we afraid of? ... If this issue is as important as we all think it is, why not take ... it up and debate?"

On Friday, Sean Hannity brought Pat Smith, mother of the late Sean Smith, on his radio program. The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012. In the chilling interview, a distraught Ms. Smith, in tears, pleaded for answers and spoke of the efforts to silence her. Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

I hope all will look at a lifetime of service over some poorly chosen words.” Carson will remain as commencement speaker at Johns Hopkins,

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

Susan Patton, the Princeton alumna who became famous for her letter urging Ivy League women to use their college years to find a mate, has been denounced as a traitor to feminism, to coeducation, to the university ideal. But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —

Los Angeles — Some people have had it with TV. They´ve had enough of the 100-plus channel universe. They don´t like timing their lives around network show schedules. They´re tired of $100-plus monthly bills. A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don´t even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. (Snip) Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group "Zero TV" households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home. There are 5 million of these residences in the U.S., up from

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”
