Once again, I find myself having to defend people I don’t really like to defend. This is already getting old, and we’re only six months into the Obama administration. Today’s subject: elections in Iran. Prepare yourself for the mother of all blog posts. Last Friday, presidential elections were held in Iran, and everybody’s favorite Holocaust [...]

Two days ago, I linked to a lengthy, detailed post outlining 15 things you should know about the proposed healthcare reform bill. Remember? Well, the same guy, Keith Hennessey, has updated his analysis and now has a comparison of the Kennedy-Dodd Senate bill and the House bill being proposed. Read it and continue weeping.

Remember the Obamanovs? About two months ago, I noted that the Obama administration had outdone the Romanov dynasty as far as czar appointments go. Well, apparently they didn’t want to simply top the record; they want to smash the record to pieces. New this week: a compensation czar to determine just how much executives of [...]

The other day, President Obama declared that healthcare reform absolutely, positively has to get done this year, or else the window will close fo-EVAH and EVAH. Oh noes! Seriously, though, health insurance is outrageously priced if you’re an individual trying to provide coverage for you and/or your family. If you can get insurance through your [...]

The New York Times has an interesting article today about Brian Deese, a 31-year-old Yale law student who has put his education on hold to work for the Obama administration. He started off by volunteering for the Clinton campaign, and then was contacted by the Obama campaign once Hillary Clinton withdrew her candidacy. Now he [...]

Here’s something that really, really bugs me. Despite the fact that anyone with email presumably also has the interwebz at their disposal, there are still tons of emails that get circulated that are just plain false and misleading. They are designed to scare people into thinking something terrible is about to happen/has already happened and [...]

The Obama administration has officially shattered the Romanovs’ record for czar appointments. That’s quite an achievement! Not to be outdone, Law School Ninja is happy to announce the opening of several czarish positions, effective immediately: budget-reconciliation czar: responsible for paying all my bills using his or her own money landscape-beautification czar: maintain the grounds here [...]

Check out this hilarious (and sad but true) video that Reason magazine came up with to help explain the new automobile warranty system now that it’s being run by the government. You can expect this same brilliant efficiency to be applied to the healthcare system once the government takes it over, too. Yes, you can.

Well, I just couldn’t resist. Everybody with a pulse probably already knows about this, but I couldn’t sleep at night if I didn’t provide my loyal readers with easy access to the messiah‘s history-making appearance on Leno. Ha! Good one, messiah! He’s a funny guy, that leader of the free world. A regular guy, just [...]
