"Senate Must Stop Obama Internet Takeover"
FOXNews: Today, the Obama administration officially published the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) so-called net neutrality rules in the Federal Register. These rules would undo a decade of free-market, hands-off Internet policy that has made the Internet the greatest engine of economic growth, creativity, and innovation the world has ever seen. They would set us down a path to reducing the Internet into a government-regulated, government-controlled public utility. The effective date
"Obama was warned of loan dangers long before Solyndra sank"
Andrew Malcolm, LAT: In a detailed story posted overnight, The Times’ Tom Hamburg, Kim Geiger and Matea Gold outline the danger signals set off in October 2010 when secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner and chief economic advisor Lawrence Summers warned the president that Energy’s vetting process was not stringent enough to weed out troubled applicants in advance. Energy Secy. Steven Chu, who like Obama holds a Nobel Prize, was
"Sheila Jackson Lee Tells 'Right-Wing Bloggers' to 'Shut Up'"
One “right-wing blogger” replies: “the last time I took orders from a queen I was a roadie for an 80s new wave band. “So. Sod off, comrade.”*
The academy's anti-intellectualism continues apace
Associated Students Senate at UC-Berkeley, in response to a satirical diversity bake sale held by a Republican Student organization to protest a proposed bill that “would allow California’s public universities to consider race, ethnicity and gender in student admissions as long as no preference is given,” approved unanimously a resolution condemning ‘the use of discrimination whether it is in satire or in seriousness by any student group.’” That is, they’ve
"Liberal scare tactics: Death by government cuts"
Washington Examiner: Liberal assertions that cuts in government spending will cause certain death are nothing new. Sixteen years ago this week, Krugman’s fellow columnist Bob Herbert warned New York Times readers that the welfare reform bill Republicans were then debating in the Senate “would hurt many people, would kill some and would help no one.” Herbert could not have been much farther from the mark. Two years later, after President
Daily Herman Cain factoid that few people yet know
In 1977, Herman Cain challenged Sly Stone to a funk contest and easily out-funked him. When a chastened and humiliated Stone tried to follow-up his defeat with a right cross to the newly-annointed funkmaster’s chin, Herman Cain caught the musician’s fist in his large, forgiving hands and turned it into a bouquet of daisies. Then he went home and had sex with Olivia Newton-John.
The Huntsman juggernaut, cont.
Thrilled that the candidate actually believes in science, Michael Moore endorses establishment GOP “top-tier candidate” Jon Huntsman. Frankly, I’m happy that Moore, and Jimmy Carter, and Jon Stewart — not to mention the GOP establishment types (who don’t exist, because the GOP establishment doesn’t exist, and even if it did, we’d be it, so take that, you ignorant extremists who are the new establishment, which doesn’t even exist) — are
RACISM SPREADS!
Question: does the AP’s accurate transcription of Obama’s speech to the CBC wish to hang blacks from trees or relegate them to the backs of buses or separate drinking fountains? That is to say, is the objective depiction of Obama’s switch into his Hawaiian accent (h/t Gutfeld) during a speech now considered out of bounds? Is reality itself racist? — and if so, does that assertion not mark the speaker
