In case you needed a refresher course, here's a look at some of the top members of the Hope and Change-minted team that the Beltway reformer-in-chief brought with him four years ago. Barack Obama's Chicago-marinated culture of corruption brought us $16 trillion in debt, trillion-dollar porkulus, Obamacare, and edujobs slush funds, heightened national INsecurity, and...
Read MoreThe latest in Commie Chic: "Oba Mao" t-shirts! Nope, not manufactured by RAAAACIST Tea Party protesters. Manufactured in China and sold by the Chinese for the rest of the Citizens of the World.

Read MoreHere's the e-mail of the day, from a beleaguered federal employee at the Commerce Department. Thanks to the e-mailer for giving us a revealing glimpse into the bowels of the spam-happy, appointee-overrun Obama bureaucracy. Michelle, I work for the Department of Commerce as a federal employee...and am getting rather fed up with what I have...
Read MoreFlashback: Locke with Chinese president Hu Jintao. I reported extensively on former Washington state governor Gary Locke's extensive China ties, conflicts of interest, and questionable judgments-- all documented well before Locke "sailed through" his confirmation hearing with help from apathetic or clueless Republican senators.
