The polls show a radical shift in support from Obama to Romney. The election isn’t over. There are two more debates and the inevitable “October Surprise.” Remember the release of George W. Bush’s 24-year-old DUI conviction. “The Bush DUI revelation was a hit job planted by a Democratic source that

Obama and Co. are making a big deal over comments Mitt Romney made about defunding Big Bird. “I love Big Bird,” Romney said “But I’m not going to keep on spending money on things to borrow money from China to pay for.” Our embassies are under attack, and Obama’s handlers

The following was sent to me from a friend. I’ve spoken to a number of Cuban immigrants over the years, and I can testify that what you are about to read is true: “When I was about 9 years old I remember asking my dad about Fidel Castro. I asked,

Job security is important to everybody. But the government didn’t come to the rescue of other companies that were failing. The government came to GM’s rescue and let other companies die because there were millions of votes at stake in the rustbelt states of Ohio and Michigan and a union

Alan Colmes, a token liberal talker on Fox News, following liberal religious talking points, claims that Jesus “believed the rich should give to the poor.” Let’s assume that Colmes’ analysis of Jesus is correct on this point. This is a far cry from saying that rich people should be taxed

One of my habits is to read books and articles about social and political trends that were predicted more than 25 years ago to see how well the prognosticators did. I used to love to read Popular Mechanics magazine and the stories that were published about what the future will

There have been some awful anti-Christian art pieces and films in the past few decades. Where were our government officials and the Hollywood “holier-than-thou” literati crowd when artist and photographer Andres Serrano unveiled his “Piss Christ”? It was a photograph of a “small plastic crucifix submerged in a glass of

Liberal radio talker Randi Rhodes trumpeted on her show that the GOP and Conservative Talk Radio Want to “Piss Away” Arab Democracy. Here are some of her comments: “You have Republicans who never trusted the people — they don’t like people, they don’t trust people, they trust corporations. You get

The President and his liberal compatriots were excited to see the Arab Spring bring democracy to a nation like Egypt. There is no doubt that the presidency of Hosni Mubarak was corrupt and needed to be changed. Riots in the streets don’t breed confidence. It would be like putting the

If there was one thing Jesus despised more than anything else it was hypocrisy. “But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you shut off the kingdom of heaven from people; for you do not enter in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.

Because of Godfather Politics’ large audience, we receive a lot of referral articles, websites to check out, and just some plain fun stuff that brightens our day in a time of political darkness. Somebody who’s a lot more clever than I am wrote the following. (My addition is on Bureauacritizatium.)

When Peter Schiff, CEO and chief global strategist of Euro Pacific Capital Inc., approached Vance Jones at the Democrat National Convention for an interview, Jones declined. He was smart. Undeterred, Mr. Schiff went on to interview a number of delegates about corporate profits. Their responses were shocking. Well, not really.

Watching the Democrat National Convention reminded me of two black and white films from the 1940s that mention Democrats. The first is The Heavenly Body (1944) starring Hedy Lamarr, William Powell, Nancy Potter, and James Craig. It’s about a woman (Lamarr) who’s neglected by her astronomer husband (Powell) who’s pursuing

If you use the word “Chicago,” you’re a racist. If you criticize the president about anything, you’re a racist. For the longest time, “racist” was a debate stopper. Unfortunately for the Democrats, calling everybody a racist doesn’t work anymore. With this in mind, Democrats have upped the ante by identifying

Saul Alinsky (1909–1972), who wrote the book Rules for Radicals, is the patron saint of the modern Democratic Party. Liberals always feign ignorance about the intellectual sources that give meaning to their radicalism. They ask, “What’s the Communist Manifesto?” every time someone points out that one of its planks is

No matter who becomes president in November, he’s going to be confronted with a huge fiscal storm that no levee or dam will be able to hold back the flood waters of an insurmountable and unfathomable debt. In his review of Dinesh D’Souza’s film 2016: Obama’s America, Dr. Gary North

It’s been said that a person is known by the company he keeps unless he’s a Democrat. I added the Democrat part. But it’s true. How many times did Democrats stand behind Robert C. Byrd (1917–2010), the longtime Senator from West Virginia, even though he was a member in good

“The Greatest Generation” is a term coined by journalist Tom Brokaw to describe the generation that grew up in the United States during the deprivation of the Great Depression, and then went on to fight in World War II, as well as those whose productivity at home made a decisive
