Did Krupskaya cave?

We have closely followed the story of Obama administration flack Linda Douglass — a cross between Nurse Ratched and Mrs. Lenin — and her invitation to report fishy comments on Obamacare to the [email protected] official email address. I thought the project was, as the liberals say nowadays, un-American, and rather obviously so. How fitting of the Obama administration to hark back to the ethos of Big Brother while promoting socialized »

Ultra MAGA: The rejected slurs

Featured image I have been wondering about the marketing genius behind Joe Biden’s slurs of “Ultra MAGA Republicans” and the “Ultra MAGA agenda” along with the slur of Donald Trump himself as “MAGA King.” I have accordingly dug out the choices presented to the focus groups “helmed” by Anita Dunn, the Krupskaya of a leftist DC power couple of many talents. In its story on the origins of “Ultra MAGA Republicans,” the »

Ultra LAME

Featured image Earlier this week I quoted from President Biden’s May 10 remarks on the economy (correction in transcript): “Senator Rick Scott of Wisconsin [Florida], a member of the Senate Republican leadership, laid it all out in a plan. It’s the Ultra-MAGA Agenda.” If you wondered whence the “Ultra-MAGA” shtick suddenly materialized, as I have, Washington Post reporters Ashley Parker and Michael Scherer have arrived with the answer. You had to know »

Deep meaning of equity

Featured image The execrable Susan Rice has returned to public life to lead the White House Domestic Policy Council. It’s an anodyne title, but she has taken up residence in the Executive Office of the President to execute, to crack the whip, to impose discipline, to play the role of Krupskaya to Joe Biden’s glassy-eyed Weekend at Bernie’s routine. Rice emerged on Tuesday to preview the strong dose of “equity” that Biden »

After last night

Featured image After Donald Trump’s and Hillary Clinton’s victories in their respective party primaries last night, they appear the likely nominees of their parties. Clinton certainly is, Trump uncertainly. It’s not exactly an inspiring prospect. The Clintons will never go away. With their gargantuan corruption, habitual lying, and leftist proclivities, they mark their territory with an indelible stain. While Bill Clinton entered the White House a lowlife rogue, Hillary will enter as »

The fear factor

Featured image Michelle Malkin fits the Obama campaign’s AttackWatch into the larger pattern set by previous incarnations of “the Obama snitch police.” In her post Michelle recalls the 2008 Obama campaign’s FightTheSmears. In the good old days it was a smear to claim that Michelle Obama ordered room service when she hadn’t stayed at the hotel! Fortunately, FightTheSmears didn’t have to respond to Andrea Tantaros’s New York Daily News column on Michelle »

Speaker Pelosi, I confess

This past August, the White House invited loyal citizens to report when they received “an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy” to the official e-mail address [email protected]. Loyal citizens were to report fishy comments to Linda Douglass, someone who looks suspiciously like Krupskaya, or Nurse Ratched, and lived up to the image. This August it’s House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who has cast »

Learning from Mao

Earlier this week the White House assigned interim communications director and attack dog Anita Dunn to deliver a programmed bashing of FOX News to the media. Who is this Anita Dunn? In the video below, Dunn cites mass murdering Communist Chairman Mao as one of her two favorite political philosophers (the other being Mother Teresa). Delivering this talk in which she cites Mao, Dunn conveys all the charm and personal »

Does Linda Douglass know about this?

Last week White House flack Linda Douglass responded to a video of Barack Obama expressing support for a government takeover of the health care system (i.e., “single payer”) with a vehement denial. Douglass disparaged the video of Obama as “disinformation.” She responded with a video of Obama’s recent poll-tested statements “guaranteeing” that citizens who are happy with their health insurance can keep it under Obamacare. Understand, children? The White House »

My fishy confession

Attentive consumers of news on the Internet may have noticed that the White House recently invited loyal citizens to report when they receive “an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy” to the official e-mail address [email protected]. Loyal citizens are to report fishy comments to Linda Douglass, someone who looks suspiciously like Krupskaya, or Nurse Ratched. As a student of history, I think »
