If you thought PETA was actually about protecting animals, let me help set the record straight. PETA is not about the ethical treatment of animals; it’s about the EVIL treatment of animals.
According to The Center for Consumer Freedom, PETA killed 95% of the adoptable pets in its care. PETA has a euthanasia record that is [...]

While Al Gore and the other wild eyed global warming loons like Barack Obama stand on metaphorical street corners and preach the coming global warming apocalypse, I woke up to this:

The Competitive Enterprise Institute is hosting a celebration tonight called Human Achievement Hour to counter Earth Hour. I love their press release announcing their new one hour holiday:

The book she’s written is exactly the kind of book you’d expect,too. It heaps praise on Barack Obama while insulting all Republicans. Here are the details from NewsBusters:

The first appearance by a sitting president on “The Tonight Show” may well end up being the last.

Duke’s coach Mike Krzyzewski has a little advice for President Obama, a big basketball fan, that perhaps the economy is a bit more important than the NCAA brackets:
Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski isn’t thrilled his team got snubbed by the leader of the free world.
