Speaking to a panel on poverty at Georgetown University, President Barack Obama dismissed wealthy Americans as “society’s lottery winners” and called on them to made a “modest investment” to the poor in the form of tax increases. – Daily Caller If you Google “Life’s Biggest Lottery Winner” I’m pretty sure this will be the first image entry: The luckiest man in the world “There’s a fairness issue involved here. And by the way, if we were able to close that loophole, I could now invest in early childhood education to make a difference. [Prove it] That’s where the rubber...

I think it may be a good idea for Big Guy to lay low for awhile. It seems every time he opens his mouth lately somebody sticks his foot in it.Take yesterday for example, when he was whining about people in general and Cherokee Princess Senator Elizabeth Warren in particular for not supporting his Trade Bill:  NOW president: Obama’s Warren critique sexist. National Organization for Women (NOW) president Terry O’Neill on Wednesday called President Obama’s critique of Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) sexist.O’Neill told The Hill she took issue with Obama calling Warren by her first name during an interview with...

The American Civil Liberties Union demanded an end to the use of government drone aircraft to “spy” on those looting and burning buildings in Baltimore. “Persons walking the streets should not be faced with such an intrusive violation of their privacy,” declared ACLU spokesman Bertram Petty. “Officials need to present a ‘probable cause’ case to observe a specific individual suspected of a specific crime. They have no authority for a general surveillance of an entire city.” Petty also questioned whether the looting and burning would even qualify as crimes, per se. “The title to the property being removed from the...

What if you won an election butt the incumbent refused to leave?I know, silly isn’t it? However that’s exactly what happened in Alabama. Employees of an Alabama plant will be voting for the fifth time on whether it will oust the United Auto Workers union. The union has lost three of the four previous votes at NTN-Bower Corporation, but has filed appeals with the National Labor Relations Board alleging management interference.The one vote won by the union was nullified for voting irregularities. In that January vote, only 139 of the plant's 140 workers voted, but a total of 148 ballots...

A component of the forthcoming agreement between the US and Iran on nuclear weapons development is the US release of Iranian funds that have been frozen in US banks. GOP critics of the agreement fear that these funds will be used to aid terrorist attacks in the Middle East and elsewhere. Press Secretary Josh Earnest mocked these fears as “paranoid delusions. It would make no sense for the Iranians to besmirch the rapport our two countries have worked so hard to achieve by ‘stabbing us in the back’ with such a duplicitous response to our generosity.” Earnest cited “the historic...

What if you threw a Super Bowl party and the guest of honor refused to come? Possibly because word got out ahead of time that you planned to insult him when he arrived.How the Coach reacted to BO’s “deflategate” joke; how he really feltSo I think that’s what happened with Saudi King Salman. I hear he will not be attending Big Guy’s big Camp David summit of Gulf leaders this week; he too cites a “previous engagement.” Just as well; when BO announces that he’s actually giving Iran nuclear weapons to play with in their sandbox, it might have been perceived...

North America's answer to The Principality of Sealand -the self-declared micronation of Molossia (a few acres near Reno + colony in California)-  is proud to announce the opening of a glistening new visitor's center for international tourists... Surrounded on all sides by US/Nevada territory, landlocked Molossia was founded and has been run (with an iron fist!) by one Kevin Baugh since 1999.  A 2012 petition on WhiteHouse.gov meant to produce US recognition of Molossia's sovereignty failed to gain the required number of signatures, yet His Excellency continues to make improvements, 'serve the people' (27 members of the Baugh family), and expand territory. Baugh's...

Bloomberg’s Mark Halperin may not be the world’s best interviewer — but he might be the world’s most condescending. In a week-old interview that has only recently garnered buzz thanks to a column in the San Jose Mercury News, Halperin essentially demands Texas Sen. Ted Cruz prove he is connected to his Hispanic heritage. WATCH: (VIDEO-AT-LINK)During the interview, Halperin says he wants to ask a series of questions to determine whether Cruz has “an affinity for or a connection to” his “Cuban past.” He asks Cruz if he has a favorite Cuban food. When the senator starts to answer that...

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN – Afghanistan’s leading government organization for women has announced plans to abandon their struggle for women’s equality in Afghanistan and said they merely hope to be treated with the same basic dignity given to animals. Dr. Husn Banu Ghazanfar, Afghanistan’s Minister of Women’s Affairs since 2006, has announced that her ministry will formally disband next month and turn over all women’s issues in the country to the Afghan chapter of the group the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. “In a bow to reality, we have given up all hope of gender equality and merely wish to...

Lady M gave the commencement address yesterday at Tuskegee University and it included all her usual grace, personal insight, and patriotism. What the heck!? Did NO ONE realize that this is symbolic of placing a yoke around Lady M’s neck? Or worse? After opening with her usual obsequiousness: Now, on this day before Mother’s Day, I’ve got to give a special shout-out to all the moms here.  (Applause.)  Yay, moms! And I want you to consider this as a public service announcement for anyone who hasn’t bought the flowers or the cards or the gifts yet — all right?  I’m...

Suspicion that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton may have been involved in questionable financial transactions between foreign governments and the Clinton Foundation was brushed aside as a "matter of no interest" by Department spokesman Jeff Rathke. "Secretary Clinton has assured us that there were no improprieties," Rathke said. "We 'd have to have some concrete proof before we 'd undertake any moves that could impugn her integrity. Now that her private server has been erased it doesn't look like there could ever be any concrete proof." "Personally, I find it hard to believe that a woman who has dedicated...
