Could Obama’s real father be Frank Marshall Davis? That would explain why his grandparents encouraged him to spend so much time with Frank. It would also explain why Andrew Sullivan is so interested in the Palin family genealogy chart. It is all part of an orchestrated distraction from the real questions in this campaign. It…

A number of people have noted that Obama was looking off to the left a lot in the first debate with McCain. One of them is A. J. Strata and he has a theory. We seem to go round and round again these days on whether candidates have ear pieces (and these days they can…

If you are interested in developing wind power on a large scale, tens to hundreds of megawatts, you have a problem. A logistics problem. In what has to be one of the biggest ironies surrounding alternative energy, many of the objections to wind energy focus on its effect on nature. Yet while the critics fret…

Thanks to Eric I have this bit of news about the housing crisis. Of all the characteristics of a successful politician, none is more essential than bare-faced cheek. Never has this been more evident than in the past fortnight, as senior Democrat members of the US legislature have sought to lay all the blame for…

My Congressman Don Manzullo had this to say: “Everything we’re doing to reach out to members is predicated on the fact that failure is not an option,” said Blunt spokeswoman Antonia Ferrier. But not all of those efforts were fruitful. Blunt’s visit to the meeting of the Republican Study Committee (RSC) was met with criticism…

Such earnest helpful people. I wonder how many will be touring Ohio for Obama? When Obama said he wasn’t going to lose this election he wasn’t kidding.

This is rather curious. Obama is supposed to produce his birth certificate to prove he is an American citizen. Instead of producing the paper, he is fighting the suit. From Atlas Shrugs. Rather than just product the birth certificate (is he trying to hide something?) Obama’s legal team filed a motion to dismiss. One of…

Yep. Obama seems to be getting money from a lot of strange places. An auditor for the Federal Election Commission is attempting to have his bosses seek a formal investigation into the collection by the Obama for President campaign of more than $200 million in potentially illegal political donations, including millions of dollars of illegal,…

Sen. Claire McCaskill has high praise for Senator Joe Biden. Joe she said, “has a tendency to talk forever and sometimes say things that are kind of stupid.” Thank the Maker he is not a heartbeat away from the Presidency. Cross Posted at Power and Control

I know you can’t make this stuff up because you don’t have to. In an imaginary world where liberal journalists are held to the same standards as everyone else, Ifill would be required to make a full disclosure at the start of the debate. She would be required to turn to the cameras and tell…

Another Clinton backer endorses McCain. As Barack Obama and John McCain battle for the Hispanic vote, a leading Latino backer of Hillary Clinton is crossing party lines to support the Republican presidential nominee. In an interview Thursday, Miguel D. Lausell, a Puerto Rican businessman and longtime Democratic activist and fund-raiser, came out for Sen. McCain.…

What a community organizer does. Or in the words of Stanley Kurtz: A community organizer helps get high risk loans for low credit customers. What ACORN does. What is ACORN then? An organization full of community organizers committed to mortgage fraud and vote fraud. Some real nice friends that Obama has. Cross Posted at Power…

In Europe. And you thought we had it bad in America. The Dutch-Belgian bank Fortis, Britain’s Bradford and Bingley, and Iceland’s Glitnir, were all partially or fully nationalized after failing to roll-over debts in the short-term money markets, while the French state pledged support for the Franco-Belgian lender Dexia after the share price collapsed on…
