Meh. You gotta break a few eggs, right? Because it ain’t like we’re just going to surrender our jobs, along with the liberty that comes with economic independence. So. Nudge nudge! For social justice!

It’s simple, really: enrage leftists (protecting their anti-war cred); tack toward transnationalism by suggesting that the UN is leading here and that this is how it should be, with the military to be used for humanitarian intervention rather than out of something so crass as sovereign interests; all the while, try to win back independents by showing you are willing to break from your own base (which we know to

WSJ: You read that headline correctly. Unfortunately, the Obama Administration is financing oil exploration off Brazil. The U.S. is going to lend billions of dollars to Brazil’s state-owned oil company, Petrobras, to finance exploration of the huge offshore discovery in Brazil’s Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin near Rio de Janeiro. Brazil’s planning minister confirmed that White House National Security Adviser James Jones met this month with Brazilian officials

It hasn’t helped a soul, those who pushed for it most are the ones being exempted, and yet the claims that it will create jobs and reduce the deficit — surreal claims on their face and of course not backed by any credible accounting — are still being pushed. But don’t worry. Our GOP leadership in the House is working tirelessly to get 2% cut from a deficit budget for

From the Blaze (h/t Pablo) and Naked Emperor News: Cloward-Piven 2.0. What we’re witnessing is an organized attempt at initiating a soft coup in the United States by way of a socialist cabal. Michael Medved might not like to hear this; Bill O’Reilly and Bernie Goldberg likely won’t, either — concerned, as they both are, about the “rightwing” “bash Obama” industry (which isn’t helping “the folks”); Jeb Bush surely doesn’t,

Still nothing. But I am now hearing claims that someone paid a lawyer good American money to send this letter standard mail — with no delivery confirmation and no certification of receipt — to an “old address” that can’t be revealed. Because then I’d know who my victim is. And I’m not supposed to know. Which makes the sending of the letter all the more baffling. Oh. I’ve been at

Okay. Now they’re just making this too easy. Reached for comment, a distracted and rum-soaked President Obama, dressed in flower-print Hawaiian shorts and sporting a Hard Rock Cafe: Rio t-shirt — oh, nevermind. Write your own damn punchline. I have my dignity. (thanks to Dave O’C)

A minor setback for the most transparent administration evah! The Federal Reserve will publish new details about its emergency lending to banks during the 2008 financial crisis after the Supreme Court on Monday rejected a final banking industry appeal for secrecy. The central bank said it will release within the next week a list of loans made from its main emergency aid program, the so-called discount window. It is the

Or, “FOXNews stooge and anti-Muslim Uncle Tom (who really should see a therapist, because he’s clearly racist, and probably hates the working man, too) calls for an end to informing poor rural people about their economic interests and social justice”. For those of you who might want to read the title unmasked from all the conservative code words: Juan Williams has opposed defunding NPR — until now. But his opinion

Invite the pig to dinner. When he shows up, you, a couple of your pals, and Gilbert Gottfried heckle the shit out of him.
