We were hopeful that the Muslim riots spreading across the world would galvanize the mainstream media into telling the truth about their anointed one’s foreign policy failures. As they say in North Korea: “rotsa ruck.”

To prevent further grade inflation, I have re-scaled the curve. The highest grade will be A+++.

No pushing at the door please!

The “One” believes that wind, battery, and solar power are ready to replace coal, oil, and gas. This should make him “The Two.”

Galvanize around this story of missing minutes from the "Romney tape"! Don't let it die!

Lies, exaggeration and obfuscation are pillars of leftist philosophy. In an honest discussion, with an informed electorate, Obama would carry D.C. Period.
