President Obama, with Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s parents

Hussein Obama’s unimaginably poor judgment is on brilliant display today for the at least the 51st time since he mercifully left office.   Leftists who worshiped Obama and voted for him because he was 50 percent black took another kick in the gut yesterday.   Obama’s golden boy, the traitor Bowe-Bowe (I Hate America) Bergdahl, pleaded guilty to deserting his … Read More

For leftists who do have families, they should hope their breadwinners don’t ever compete in the Kentucky Derby. At choosing, they ain’t very good, morally speaking, a concept that baffles left-wingers. Leftists recently have brightly polished their knack for hopping aboard knock-kneed nags incapable of winning a one-horse race. Owing to lifesaving boosts from their partners in the mainstream media, … Read More

Mr. Gourley

First of two parts His intention was otherwise. But when Steve Gourley strode to the microphone to address the City Council last week, a waterfall of memories of the sui generis Mr. Gourley from years past flooded back. An academic skyscraper (http://the3wisemen.co/about/steven-gourley-curriculum-vitae/), he is the only politician to capture both a Council seat (1988-1996) and a seat on the School … Read More

Left-wing racists are enjoying, arguably, their finest week since their philosophical ancestors formed the Klan a century and a half ago. As committed racists, they do not need a reason for outlawing Columbus Day observances, ugh, by white and non-white people all across our country.

Mr. Brown, left, and Mr. de Leon

Jerry Brown. Stephen Paddock. Colin Kaepernick. Kevin de Leon. At a glance, the bunching may seem lopsided. But each of these despicable persons has been spitting on our country, our flag, our democracy this season.

At the City Council meeting two weeks ago, three speakers accused the Councilwoman of offending their guests by plastering them with the intensely derogatory label. Typically, transient characterizes homeless, hopeless types, bums, … Read More
