Morning Briefing
For April 30, 2014


The Donald Sterling Precedent
With the precedent now set and with society descending to ever more daily outrage over ever more innocuous things, woe to the owner caught on tape opposing, well, we don’t know. But we can surely speculate. This is only the beginning. . . . please click here for the rest of the post

Det Bowers
Conservatives, I think the only person who had what it takes to beat Lindsey Graham is Det Bowers. I’ve been paying attention to him for several months behind the scenes. In the short time he has been in the race he has raised over $400,000.00, with over 95% of that coming from South Carolina. In fact, a large number of his donors are new donors to politics. . . . please click here for the rest of the post


Just a Reminder
In all the discussion over how Clayton Lockett was executed, few have paid attention to Miss. Stephanie Neiman.

Clayton Lockett beat her, bound her with duct tape, covered her mouth, shot her, then buried her alive.

Just remember that while you are posturing over how Clayton Lockett died last night . . . please click here for the rest of the post


The White House’s Calculated Lie On The Benghazi Fiasco
In the aftermath of the sacking of our Benghazi consulate and the slaughter of our ambassador, National Security Advisor Susan Rice was sent out to the various Sunday morning talk shows to deny that terrorism as the cause. Rather, she claimed, it was the result of an internet video that no one had seen. . . . please click here for the rest of the post


Money and the Tea Party
From January 1, 2013, through March 31, 2014, the National Republican Senatorial Committee raised $49.6 million, but only gave $126,000.00 to candidate and other political committees. 71% of the money it spent went to its non-electioneering operations. That looks terrible. But it is not. . . . please click here for the rest of the post


WaPo uses the dread number ’2006' when discussing Barack Obama
Everyone in the world – well, maybe not quite that many people – is talking about this Washington Post-ABC poll/article that suggests that Barack Obama has been merely spitting in the wind for the last month.  There’s a lot to mine in there, and not just for our side, but this passage jumped out at me . . . please click here for the rest of the post


Message To Duke University: Man Up
One of the hallmarks of the left is its never ending battle to control language and to use that control as a cudgel on its opponents. . . . please click here for the rest of the post


Candidate Interview: Bentley Rayburn CO CD-5
Yesterday afternoon I had the opportunity to sit down with retired Air Force Major General, and GOP primary candidate for Colorado’s 5th Congressional District, Bentley Rayburn. In an interview in Rayburn’s relatively modest home north of Colorado Springs, we spoke about his background, world view, and why he is running for Congress. . . . please click here for the rest of the post


Don’t Make Me Do This – An Exclusive Interview With Speaker Boehner
What an interview. The Speaker really articulated his responses in a way that speak to me. The fact is, things are too hard. I had to wait for the coffee to brew this morning. Like some kind of barbarian. I’m glad Boehner put those feelings into words. . . . please click here for the rest of the post
