If we are to survive the looming catastrophe, we need to face the truth - Telegraph

If we are to survive the looming catastrophe, we need to face the truth - Telegraph: "The hardest obstacle to overcome will be the idea that anyone who challenges the prevailing consensus of the past 50 years is irrational and irresponsible. That is what is being said about the Tea Partiers. In fact, what is irrational and irresponsible is the assumption that we can go on as we are."

Well said.

The Gibson Guitar Saga Gets Steadily Curiouser | Power Line

The Gibson Guitar Saga Gets Steadily Curiouser | Power Line: "It has come out that Juszkiewicz is a Republican donor, while the CEO of one of his principal competitors, C.F. Martin & Company, is a Democratic donor. Martin reportedly uses the same wood, but DOJ hasn’t raided them, leading to speculation that the Obama administration is sending a warning to Republican businessmen that they had better not oppose his re-election, lest they face criminal investigations. Normally such speculation would not be credible, but Eric Holder has politicized the Department of Justice to a point where such questions must be taken seriously."

Jack boots.

The definition of insanity: President Obama’s ‘jobs plan’ — Emerging Corruption

The definition of insanity: President Obama’s ‘jobs plan’ — Emerging Corruption: "Like trying to fix America’s debt problem by raising the debt ceiling and incurring even more debt. Which is “a failure of leadership” that “shift[s] the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren,” as Senator Barack Obama noted back in 2006 when he spoke out against raising the debt ceiling. But that didn’t stop Barack Obama, as president, from raising America’s debt ceiling not once, not twice, but three times while in the White House. Why? According to President Obama, “If we don’t come to an agreement [to raise the debt ceiling a third time], we could lose our country’s AAA credit rating.” So, what happened after he came to an agreement to raise the debt ceiling a third time? America immediately lost its AAA credit rating."

How things work in the "progressive" world.

DOJ | Eric Holder | Obama administration | The Daily Caller: "Based on their investigation, the researchers found that every single new hire — 70 in all — boasted far-left résumés. They found no conservative or apolitical new hires in the Voting Section (16 hires), the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices (5 hires), the Special Litigation Section (23 hires), the Education Section (11 hires), or the Employment Section (15 hires)."

Are “Green Jobs” the Answer? - AskHeritage

Are “Green Jobs” the Answer? - AskHeritage: "Green jobs are about government subsidies, cronyism, and job cannibalism. They aren’t self-sustaining because they rely on giveaways of taxpayer money and they cannibalize existing jobs…
The green agenda soaks taxpayers. But it also packs a double wallop because taxpayers are first hit to pay for the subsidies, then everyone is hit by higher energy prices caused by energy taxes and regulations."

The "Green Jobs" bonanza.

U.S. sued over Michelle’s secretive ‘family outing – Patriot Update

U.S. sued over Michelle’s secretive ‘family outing – Patriot Update: "Judicial Watch has filed a lawsuit over the federal government’s refusal to disclose how much taxpayers spent to send Michelle Obama on a “family outing” that included a safari in Africa."

Why is the White House so reticent? Surely, were this a worthwhile investment, the cost to the taxpayer would seem small in relation to the benefit garnered thereby?
