This has some great ones, including a take off on the Coexist sticker, and a "You are not entitled to what I have earned" sticker.  But the best is the WORST. From reader Tim: I snapped a shot of these in the lot at Best Buy, in...

I predicted Saturday night that the Trayvon Martin case was being set up for an explosive outcome in which expectations of a conviction faced the reality of the rights of an accused and evidence which cast "reasonable doubt" on what happened. Two developments today make the facts supporting...

The refusal of the State Department to recognize Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel, and to issue passports listing Jerusalem as a birthplace in Israel, made its way to the Supreme Court. The Court ruled that courts can decide the issue under U.S. statutes.  While it appears to...

This morning was the first day of oral argument in the Supreme Court on challenges to Obamacare.  The audio should be available in a little while. Today was the issue of the Anti-Injunction Act, which arguably would prohibit court involvement if the mandate were viewed as...

Herman Cain's Sick of Stimulus website has released a new web ad. It's right up there with the "greats" of web ads.  (h/t Robert Costa, who says he is speechless.) Update:  This reaction from one of the people behind the Rush boycott actually is quite unintentionally funny: And, Cain...

Notice how the Obama captured when he doesn't think he is being recorded is so differenct from campaign Obama.  The  "bitter clinger" remarks and the Netanyahu put-down are the most memorable. And there are the hot mic sound bites which the media won't release, like CBS refusing to...

Off the road, finally. I'm catching up on what was going on today.  What did I miss? Okay, here's what I'm finding: Rick Santorum on Face the Nation prejudges the Zimmerman-Martin case, and attributes malicious motives to Zimmerman (emphasis mine): NORAH O'DONNELL: Senator, the President did not use the word...

There have been numerous threats made against George Zimmerman, the shooter of Trayvon Martin.  It is unclear whether a crime was committed, and Zimmerman has not been charged. Spike Lee's most famous film was Do the Right Thing, about racial tensions which spill into violence: Yet Lee...

As the primary season has continued to wear on, some supporters from the not-Mitt Romney voting bloc are deciding to fold up shop and reluctantly begin shifting their support from their candidate of choice. They do this largely because they’re worried that if conservatives don’t...

Can't miss what you never had. From reader Jim, who took this photo in a Publix parking lot yesterday in Lake Mary, FL (suburb of Orlando), and notes that the license plat "kind of puts a nice twist on the anti-obama message." ...

81% Reporting: Santorum: 50%, Romney: 26%, Gingrich: 16%, Paul: 6% ----------------- With 10% Reporting, Fox News has now called the primary for Rick Santorum as well. Here are the results so far: Santorum: 42%, Romney: 30%, Gingrich: 20%, and Paul: 5% Its not clear yet, but it appears that Gingrich...

Next Friday, March 30, the anti-Israeli Global March on Jerusalem will take place, with supposedly millions attempting to breach Israel's borders to march on Jerusalem. Israel has issue a warning to stay away from the borders, or else: Following the deadly clashes last year during the Naksa and...

I advocated yesterday for letting the facts come out in the shooting of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman.  And that's still my position. The case began to get attention when the Martins had to file a civil suit for release of the 911 tapes.  I don't blame...
