AP Uses Celebrity Impersonator’s Words as ‘News’ in Natalie Wood Death Story

November 19, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Oooopsie. An Associated Press reporter was bamboozled by a celebrity impersonator in its recent story on the re-opening of the investigation into the 1981 death of actress Natalie Wood. The reporter included in his story of the death investigation some quotes from an impersonator of actor Christopher Walken heard on a Washington D.C. sports-talk radio show.

Actress Natalie Wood disappeared from a boat in Isthmus Cove, near Catalina Island in 1981. On the boat was Wood’s husband, actor Robert Wagner, as well as actor Christopher Walken. Apparently Wagner and Woods were engaged in verbal bouts, at the very least, when night fell. Woods disappeared from the boat that night and her body was found later that next day…

Romney Shoves RoBamneyCare in Our Faces, Slickly Hiding Behind the 10th Amendment

November 17, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Romneycare was “the right thing,” proclaimed Mitt “the flip flopper” Romney on a recent Fox News interview with Neil Cavuto. Wouldn’t you know it, the only thing conservatives want him to flip flop on he refuses to do so.

I guess we can’t expect Romney to own up that Romneycare is a disaster for Massachusetts and that it was a major mistake, one that makes him look exactly live Obama any time soon. He’s steadfastly refused to say that Romneycare was a mistake in the past and today he’s doubled down on that insistence…

Super Committee: Smoke And Mirrors Personified

November 15, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Just as feared by conservatives, this “supercommittee” nonsense is turning into the absurd entity that was expected. The congressional group set up to decide the sticky issues of the budget has just announced a “savings” of $700 billion that is nothing but the smoke and mirrors of an accounting trick. There is NO savings.

The committee is suggesting that the $700 billion that was earmarked for the various wars in which we are engaged is a “savings” because we are not going to be spending it due to the ramping down of those military actions…

Praise Allah For Obama’s Christian Holiday Tax

November 9, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

President Obama proposed a tax on your live Christmas Tree for this holiday season and at least one wag on Twitter said that it was a typical tax from a Muslim. Yes, the most Muslim-friendly president evah wants to tax Christians on their holiday fir. Nice.

Obama intended to initiate this tax of fifteen cents per live tree so that he could take that money and fund an advertising project for, uh, selling live Christmas trees. Yes, it’s that idiotic…

November 8, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder has finally been brought before a Congressional investigative committee looking into Obama’s disastrous policy of arming Mexican narco-terrorists with Operation Fast and Furious.

Unfortunately, he refused to apologize for the death of Brian Terry, the U.S. Border agent that was killed with a gun sold to Mexican narco-terrorists by Holder’s employees in the BATF…

Occupy Wall Street is an Un-American Movement, Period!

November 6, 2011 by 1 Comment

-By Warner Todd Huston

These Occupy goofs are not “the left’s Tea Party.” They are not looking to better America. In fact, they aren’t American at all. They want to tear down America. They hate America’s history, her principles, her laws, and her systems of jurisprudence and government.

These events are doused in violence, they feature rapes, theft, property destruction, they are fueled by dozens of anti-American groups such as anarchists, communists, socialists, union thugs, and disaffected America-haters.

Cardinals Complaint: Obama Never Called

November 5, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Tony La Russa, the newly retired manager of the St. Louis Cardinals ball team, has a bone to pick with President Obama. La Russa says that when they won the World Series Obama never called to offer them his congratulations.

La Russa notes that White House staffers did call to make sure they had the right number to make a call later, but “We never did get a call,” La Russa said.

It is a tradition, no matter how insipid, that a president call some sports team or another that won some title or another and Obama has done it before, to be sure. But this time the Cards get a bye, I guess…

DOJ Bosses Must Have Approved Fast And Furious Wiretapping

November 4, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Recently we’ve been introduced to what appears to be the Obama administration’s sacrificial lamb for Operation Fast and Furious; Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer.

One of the interesting questions that arises over how high into the Dept. of Justice knowledge of F&F went concerns the approval of the wiretaps used during some of the F&F operations. For his part, Breuer says that anyone higher than he that had to approve these wiretaps could not have known exactly what F&F was all about because they had no knowledge of the total operation and so could not have put two and two together…

New Docs: DOJ DID Know About Fast and Furious, And an Argument for More Gun Control

November 2, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

On Monday a new dump of documents from the Department of Justice revealed that a DOJ official named Lanny Breuer knew about Fast and Furious long before Eric Holder says anyone in his office was aware of the operation that armed Mexican narco-terrorists and has been responsible for the murders of at least two U.S. law enforcement agents.

Lanny Breuer, the head of the Justice Department’s criminal division, is quoted as expressing “regret” that he didn’t tell others–including his boss, Attorney General Eric Holder–about troubling similarities between the Obama administration’s “Operation Fast and Furious” and an earlier gun-walking operation called “Wide Receiver,” which was launched during the Bush administration.

Breuer claimed to Politico that he did not alert his bosses about what he knew and regrets that he didn’t…

Michael Gerson’s Is The Weakest Case For Romney I’ve Yet Seen

November 1, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Michael Gerson tried desperately to pen an op ed that explains why conservatives could be comfortable with a Mitt Romney for President. Unfortunately, it makes Mitt even less savory to principled conservatives. Worse, Gerson makes a few assumptions with his argument that doesn’t make even a tiny bit of logical sense no matter to who they are applied.

Gerson calls his Washington Post piece, “The conservative case for Mitt Romney,” and at least acknowledges that Romney’s main political vulnerability “is a serious one.” And that serious one is flip flopping– even though Gerson does not give it its proper name.

Romney’s main political vulnerability is a serious one. Running for Massachusetts’ governor in 2002, he was a pro-choice, economically centrist, culturally liberal, business-oriented Republican. Running for president in 2008, he was a thoroughly pro-life, orthodox supply-side, culturally conservative, Fox News Republican. Romney’s shape-shifting 2008 campaign only reinforced the impression of a consultant-driven candidate.

Calling Romney merely a “consultant-drive candidate” is far, far too kind. The truth is Romney is a man that has no principle from which he won’t run full tilt while hunting a campaign victory….

Hate Handguns? Welcome to the Minority!

October 26, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

According to a new Gallup poll, the support for anti-Constitutional gun banning is at its lowest point since polls on America’s opinion of gun control were first recorded in the mid 1970s. In 1975 60% of Americans believed in strict gun control but today that has flipped completely as now 70% oppose banning handguns.

In fact, support for strict gun control measures all have fallen in support even among women and Democrats the two traditionally heavy supporters of same.

Also, for the first time since polling began, Gallup finds more people oppose the ban on so-called assault weapons than support it…

Occupy Vacancy: Why Are We Protesting, Anyway?

October 25, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

The folks at Occupy Norfolk have been at it for weeks, but even at this late date few of them seem to have the first clue what they are protesting about, a report shows.

CBS Washington went among the halfwits at the protest and surveyed the filed of protesters asking them what their point was for the whole exercise. Few had any idea. In fact, many laughed that there was no coherent idea of why they were out protesting.

This truly shows how hollow — even risible — these protests are…

NASA Thugs Abuse Old Lady Over ‘Stolen’ Moon Rocks

October 24, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

If you or a family member happen to be in possession of what you think is a rock taken from the moon during NASA’s Apollo moon landings, the best idea is to keep it to yourself. If you don’t you may have the might of the Federal government coming down upon your head as if you’ve assassinated a president or something. That’s what happened to 74-year-old Joann Davis of California.

The elderly, 4-foot-11 old lady thought she had something she could sell so that she would have some money to leave her family when she passed and maybe some to help take care of her sick son. But the spec-sized hunk of moon rock instead brought down upon her a “sting” operation, and bruises and abuse at the hands of our intrepid U.S. government.

I hope these NASA thugs didn’t get their jackboots scuffed while beating up a little old lady…

Obama Appointee: Cash For Clunkers Was A Bad Idea

October 22, 2011 by

Austan Goolsbee was once considered an up-and-coming light in the world of economics. Then he put himself into Barack Obama’s orbit and turned himself into a political hack with no principles at all. Now he’s trying to redeem himself by backing away from some of Obama’s “economic “fixes” that failed so spectacularly.

During an appearance on MSNBC, Goolsbee admitted that the Cash for Clunkers program and the home buyer tax credit passed in 2009 were “short term gimmicks” that did not help heal the economy…

FBI Pressed to Say Which F&F Gun Used to Kill Border Agent

October 21, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

After these many months, the FBI is still stonewalling the congressional committee investigating Obama’s Fast and Furious program that illicitly armed Mexican narco-terrorists. One particular bit of info the FBI refuses to confirm concerns the guns from F&F found at the scene of the murder of U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry.

This week Chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Rep. Darrell Issa (R, Calif), sent a letter to FBI Director Robert Mueller demanding definitive answers about the F&F guns found at the scene of the border agent’s murder. Issa specifically wants to know if any of them were used to kill the agent…

Another Empty Obama Promise: Fast And Furious Screw Ups Will Pay

October 19, 2011 by 1 Comment

-By Warner Todd Huston

Obama has made a specialty out of the bald-faced lie, more so than any president in modern history. Obama has issued more pronouncements, floated more false claims and told more tall tales than any president and he’s done it again in an upcoming interview with ABC’s Jake Tapper where the President tries to fool America into imagining that he will be the one to hold accountable those that “screwed up” in Fast and Furious.

This is a joke since from day one he and his administration has lied, stonewalled, and covered up every aspect of their part in F&F.

Obama’s tells Tapper…

Issa Now Probing FBIs Part in Fast & Furious

October 18, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Looks like Congressman Darrell Issa (R, Calif) will next focus his gaze on the FBI’s part in Operation Fast & Furious and will be pressing the agency for more “gunwalking” information.

When U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry was murdered near the U.S. Mexico border last year it was initially reported that two guns that could be traced back to F&F were found at the scene. However, it came to light that the FBI had covered up the fact that there was not two but three F&F guns at the scene. Issa is seeking more information about this situation.

Issa told CBS he’s looking into this third gun…

‘Sybil’: Another Big Liberal Lie

October 17, 2011 by

-By Warner Todd Huston

Remember the famous movie starring Sally Field of the young woman whose early life was so fraught with abuse that she developed split personalities? Remember “Sybil”? Turns out the real-life case the film was based on was one big lie.

It was a shocking, surreal story, of course. Shirley Mason, the young woman who was the real “Sybil,” received “treatment” from a quack named Cornelia “Connie” Wilbur a Park Avenue therapist. Wilbur promptly hooked young Mason on all sorts of drugs and then proceeded to discover multiple personalities in this poor waif. Makes for a great story, doesn’t it?

And yet, it was all a fraud.

Obama Finds Some Christians to Kill: US Troops to Uganda

Looks like President Obama has finally found some Christians he wouldn’t mind killing. The president has sent a letter to Congress informing them that he’s sending 100 U.S. Combat troops to Africa to assist in ending the reign of terror perpetrated by the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) in Uganda.

Obama has tasked these troops with helping other nations find, capture, or kill Joseph Kony and the senior leaders of the LRA. The key is that they are going to be in support roles as opposed to hunt-and-kill forces and will only engage in a firefight if they themselves are attacked…

Ancient Green History: Chevy Volt No Better Than 115-Year-Old Car

It almost seems like a cosmic joke against these greenwits, but a new report seems to show that the Chevy Volt doesn’t get any better mileage than an electric car that was invented in 1896!

The Roberts electric car, circa 1896, got a “solid 40 miles to the charge” when it debuted years before the Wrights Brothers even took their first flight. Amusingly, its the exact same number of miles that the Chevy Volt gets today…

The story went viral yesterday because a little old lady was told by the corporate giant that no US flag was allowed at her Kiwanis meeting being held at the Olive Garden in Anniston, Alabama.

Obama’s Illegal Guns End Up In Arsenal of Killer in Mexican Drug Cartel

Reports are emerging that Mexican authorities have discovered in the home of an “enforcer” for the notorious Sinaloa drug cartel in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, guns that were illegally sold by Obama’s Fast and Furious program.

These are just some of the thousands of weapons that Obama’s BATF sold to straw purchasers who then transported them into the hands of Mexican narco-terrorists. And this one was a particularly dangerous man…

Breaking news from Fox News is that the House is finally getting more serious bout Obama’s worst scandal thus far in these few destructive years in the WHite House. The House leadership is now asking for a special prosecutor to look into the obvious lies about when and how much he knew about the murderous Operation Fast And Furious perpetrated by Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder.

It seems fairly obvious that Eric Holder has committed perjury in his testimony on his role in F&F, but Rep. Lamar Smith (R, TX) feels that he cannot ferret out the full story from Holder without a special counsel to help investigate the scandal…
