The latest Breitbart videos: Obama and Derrick Bell

The New Neo Posted on March 8, 2012 by neoMarch 8, 2012

Breitbart’s Big Government has the promised video from Obama’s law school past. In it, Obama introduces—with approval—Harvard law professor Derrick Bell, and gives him a hug. In addition, another black professor at Harvard, Charles Ogletree, alludes to the fact that … Continue reading →

Doin’ the white man overbite

The New Neo Posted on March 8, 2012 by neoMarch 8, 2012

[Hat tip: rdbrewer at Ace’s.] Tom Brokaw comes up with a new way to mock Romney: I’d never heard that expression “white man overbite” before, although I did see “When Harry Met Sally,” the film that put it on the … Continue reading →

Sarah Palin asks President Obama…

The New Neo Posted on March 6, 2012 by neoMarch 6, 2012

…an excellent question. (And if anyone doesn’t know what comment of Maher’s she might be referring to, see this.)

Obama’s second term: fill in the blanks

The New Neo Posted on March 5, 2012 by neoMarch 5, 2012

If re-elected, what would Obama do? The left thinks he’ll finally be able to fulfill their dreams. The right thinks the same: that Obama, freed of the need to be re-elected, will make a hard turn to the left whether … Continue reading →

Obama: I lowered corporate taxes before I raised them

The New Neo Posted on February 22, 2012 by neoFebruary 22, 2012

No, Obama didn’t actually say that. But I wonder how many people will read past the headlines—“Obama proposes lowering corporate tax rate to 28 percent”—and see that the tax paid by corporations will go up, not down: The plan would … Continue reading →

Obama and the “free” contraception

The New Neo Posted on February 10, 2012 by neoFebruary 10, 2012

It shouldn’t really come as a surprise that President Obama has decided to extend the exemption for abortion coverage of employees to not just the Catholic Church, but church-affiliated companies. He probably didn’t expect the extent of the protest, and … Continue reading →

The church, contraception coverage, and Obama

The New Neo Posted on February 9, 2012 by neoFebruary 9, 2012

If the Obama administration thought they could sneak this one in (mandatory coverage of contraception) under the rubric of women’s rights, they must be surprised at the depth and breadth of protest it has aroused: Abortion rights organizations, pro-choice Democrats, … Continue reading →

Obama the PACman

The New Neo Posted on February 7, 2012 by neoFebruary 7, 2012

Obama and Romney and the latest polls

The New Neo Posted on February 6, 2012 by neoJune 7, 2012

Today there’s lots of news about the fact that a new Obama poll shows Obama up somewhat. No surprise, really. Lately the focus has been away from Obama, which almost always raises his standing in the eyes of the public. … Continue reading →

Obama’s interim appointment

The New Neo Posted on January 5, 2012 by neoJanuary 5, 2012

In a move that should hardly surprise anyone, Obama has circumvented the power of Republicans in Congress by appointing Richard Cordray as head of the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. It’s been clear for a long time that the fight … Continue reading →

Obama’s second term

The New Neo Posted on January 2, 2012 by neoMay 25, 2015

Commenter “foxmarks” writes: Barry can’t really be a -100. He has studiously continued many of GWB’s policies (cf: FICA tax holiday, GITMO, drone strikes). Barry’s rhetoric is a -100, but as the Progs fairly argue, he has governed as a … Continue reading →

Sarkozy and Obama

The New Neo Posted on December 15, 2011 by neoDecember 15, 2011

I’ve never thought of Sarkozy and Obama as being similar. But an article about the former in the December 12 New Yorker contained a paragraph that, although about Sarkozy, could just as easily apply to the present attitude of a … Continue reading →
