Anthony Martin: An ATF source has provided reporters a copy of a letter sent on June 1, 2010 which indicates that the monumental scandal known as ‘Project Gunwalker,’ or ‘Operation Fast and Furious,’ was never a sting operation as previously reported. If such an allegation is true, then the official Obama Administration explanation for the operation is entirely false. The commonly-reported talking point concerning Gunwalker is that it was intended

Meh, slip of the tongue. To be forgiven. After all, he’s the Smartest Man Ever to Occupy the Oval Office™ is he not? Plus, you know: clean and articulate! Which is a definite must in an historic symbol. Yes we did!

Yes We Did! Quick note to the campaigner-in-chief, who only recently was touting the once-great American infrastructure that gave us the “intercontinental railroad” (note: The Tokyo Montana Express? A figment of Richard Brautigan’s imagination, Mr President. Because, you know, logistics. And science. And rust): wild fires are a part of the natural order — and are most often the product of lightning strikes or some other connivance of nature following

This is precisely why I’ve been pitching — quite seriously, too, though I allow that it comes off as cheeky — the following bumper sticker formulation, aimed specifically at white liberals and all those who last time around were convinced that voting for a media-created “historic” presidential candidate would once and for all insulate them against (groundless) charges of racism or racial bias: “Remember: Because voting booths are private, you

“Secret recording: ATF agent suggests digging up dirt on Sen. Chuck Grassley to help forestall Gunwalker investigations” Let’s see what kind of play this gets, or if those with investigative powers think it a kind of smoking gun. My guess is, this agent will be left hanging out there all alone. Loyalty to this Administration only gets you as far as the next seat on the Obama Express; until, that

I’m heading back to Baltimore later on and won’t be back until Monday. Please try to keep the place clean in my absence. I trust that the majority of you will. For those who won’t, however — well, let’s just say I’ve left a little armored someone a rack of loaded pump action shotguns, my collection of Cold Steel survival knives, a Taser, and an inflatable kiddie pool filled to

As Victor Davis Hanson describes them, many of the contemporary “poor” are part of a class of savvy system abusers and civic thieves who extend the metaphor into the spaces inside other people’s homes, sheds, businesses, etc. As prc notes, “not exactly the Joads, eh?”

Stunning admission that he is “a sap for Obama” takes 14 Democrats + David Frum completely by surprise. Developing…

Well, I suppose that would depend on how we define “rich” and who the secretary is — for instance, the President has defined “millionaires and billionaires” as anyone making over $200K, or a family bringing in $250K, and is using as an instance of a “secretary” the personal assistant to one of the US’s wealthiest men — but I’ll bite. from the AP: President Barack Obama makes it sound as

During his speech on Israel, Rick Perry argues that if the UN supports statehood for the Palestinians — that is, taking Israel’s land and giving it to those who have, in an actual charter, sworn to annihilate Israel — the US should cease any funding of the UN. Which, while it is a nice gesture — and also a political gauntlet dropped at the feet of a President steeped in
