Lois Lerner claims she's not as bad as Jeffrey Dahmer - Issa wants her to say it under oath

Lois Lerner is not sorry. If she is to be believed, she "didn’t do anything wrong." The disgraced IRS official claims that she can be "proud of my career and the job I did for this country.” That's because, she says, “Regardless of whatever else happens, I know I did the best I could under the circumstances and am not sorry for anything I did.”

Administration warns: don't expect 'perfection' from Healthcare.gov - gee, ya think?

November 15th is rapidly approaching, and you know what that means. You don't? Hmmm...

'People's Climate March' freak show invades New York - Marxists, idiots, and hypocrites on parade

New York is no stranger to infestation. If you've spent ten minutes in the city, the odds are you've had some kind of run in with its legendary "cockroach and rat problem." Over the weekend, though, the Big Apple faced a new sort of vermin - namely, Marxists, ex-hippies, Gaia worshippers, and at least one hypocrite movie star.

ObamaCare architect Ezekiel Emanuel has anounced the 'optimal age of death' - you won't like it

Democrats seem to love death. Whether they're yammering about abortion or "end of life" planning, they just can't get enough of talking up the myriad ways people can exit life's stage. They always claim this is simply a discussion about personal responsibility and individual choice but, since they despise those ideals in virtually every other matter, it's a hard argument to buy.

Megyn Kelly rips into terrorist Bill Ayers after he says she's a 'cyborg' with 'cold eyes'

Yesterday, the far-left goons over at Salon.com ran a piece in which Weather Underground founder and terrorist Bill Ayers discussed his recent Fox News interview with Megyn Kelly.  In it, he said the following:

Committed Socialist Senator, Bernie Sanders, recorded a truly awful folk album ..Let's listen!

There's an old adage in politics: "If you're a committed socialist who hopes to one day become a self-proclaimed socialist an independent Senator from the state of Vermont, don't record a terrible album of folk songs."

MSNBC: Debbie Wasserman Schultz not on speaking terms with Barack Obama - is a political albatross for Dems

Given that she manages to embarrass Democrats every time she opens her mouth, it's not surprising that I've come to love DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

Sec. of Defense Chuck Hagel announces 1600 'military advisers' being sent to non-war in Iraq

Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel has announced that 1,600 troops "military advisers" are being deployed to Iraq, where they will "increase support" for those fighting ISIS. They're not there to fight, mind you. "Instead," Hagel said. "These advisers are supporting Iraqi and Kurdish forces in supporting the government's plan to stand up Iraqi national guard units" and they will "support intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions."

Dem Senator Tom Harkin praises: Hillary's 'Fingerprints Are All Over' Obamacare

If you're a long time Democrat stalwart, and you suspect that you may be called upon to sing the praises of your party's presumptive 2016 presidential nominee, you should pay close attention. Iowa Senator Tom Harkin (D) has a lesson to teach you. In fact, this weekend he served up a master class in how not to do it.

New polls: GOP up on generic ballot, Scott Brown pulls to a dead heat in New Hampshire

If there's one truism in politics that actually holds water, it's that you don't want to peak too soon. You can be up by 20 points, but if it happens in June, it's essentially meaningless. Unfortunately this means that, in an election year, June through August are interminable for policy wonks and political junkies. Nothing much happens, because no one wants to be the candidate who says, or does, the wrong thing. (See Akin, Todd)

Pelosi: 'Civilization as we know it' is in Jeopardy if GOP takes the Senate

Nancy Pelosi has a dire warning for the United States and, since she's not crazy at all, I want you all to listen very closely. On Friday night, she appeared on Bill Maher's HBO show where she hoped to deliver a slice of truth to the comedian's viewers. If the Republicans take the Senate this fall, things are going to be bad. Not just "they might cut taxes" bad, but really, really bad.

Chris Matthews and Al Sharpton agree: Dick Cheney conquered the holy land, created ISIS and Al Qaeda

Last night's post-ISIS speech "analysis" was a smorgasbord of crazy. Virtually every news network had something nutty happening. While CNN was content to let their talking heads simply fight it out, MSNBC took a different approach. As usual, they embraced the "Spinal Tap method" and turned the insanity all the way up to 11.

It's a lot of fun to watch McCain destroy Jay Carney on CNN, but...

Last night, after President Obama announced his totally new "strategy" of doing pretty much what he's already doing - namely striking ISIS via limited airstrikes - newly minted CNN analyst Jay Carney appeared with John McCain to discuss the speech.

Chuck Todd on new polling: Obama on the precipice of doing 'Carter-like' damage to Democrat brand

We all know Obama's policies have been an inarguable disaster. Recent polling shows that his approval rating has tanked on virtually every issue, and the number of people who support his decisions currently sits at an all-time low. So far, though, you could make a pretty strong argument that his shortcomings have - in the political sense - only caused self-inflicted wounds.

Maybe if Ted Kennedy had been an NFL player, the left would have paid more attention

By now, virtually everyone has seen the appalling video of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice savagely attacking his then-fiancée in an Atlantic City elevator. The punch, which knocked his soon-to-be wife unconscious, was fierce, terrifying, and utterly unacceptable on any number of levels. Immediately, pundits and pols began demanding that the NFL take the types of actions they should have taken when the story first broke in January.

New WaPo/ABC News poll: Majority thinks Obama is failing at just about everything

Here we go. As we get closer to November, we're going to see more and more polling and - at least so far - most of it is looking pretty ugly for Democrats. Today's numbers come to us from a new Washington Post / ABCNews poll. For the most part, it's chock full of bad news for the Dems.

If Obama didn't wave in group photos, how would you know it was all about him?

Here in the United States, we know that it's all about Obama. After all, Democrats tell us that all the time. Sure, there may be other countries and other dignitaries but, when push comes to shove, there only one world leader that's important.

Shocker: IRS claims it 'lost' emails of 5 more agents related to Lerner investigation

Late on Friday, when it was hoping no one would be paying attention, the IRS admitted that it had a few new problems on its hands. ...Five new problems, to be precise.

Reuters is shocked to learn that Iran is still stonewalling the IAEA with regards to its nuclear program

If Iran is to be believed, they're like the "Planet Alderaan" of global warfare. They're a tiny, placid, out-of-the-way country with no ambitions regarding nuclear weapons or WMD's of any kind. Heck. Iran only has a nuclear program because it wants clean, efficient, nuclear power. The United States is the big meanie with a stockpile of Death Stars. Iran is just a timid little commune of peace-loving individuals who want to keep the lights on.

Megyn Kelly makes liberal heads explode by running George W. Bush's eerily accurate Iraq predictions

Last week, we talked about Sarah Palin's 2008 prediction that President Obama's weakness would enable Putin's invasion of Ukraine. Obviously, she turned out to be 100% correct.
