The Democratic Party is now reaping what they have sown at the Kavanaugh hearings
Never before has such a target-rich environment for mocking the extremism of the Democratic Party been presented than that currently provided by the continuing drama in Virginia.
The latest scene from the cast of characters is Lt. Governor Fairfax has refused to step down, despite what is by now unanimous agreement that he needs to step down. Fairfax has proved to be obstinate, though he can make a plausible argument that [click to continue…]

Wacky hair-brained proposal confirms Democratic Party has gone off the rails
Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez has dreamed up a fantasy Green New Deal legislation, that would aim to wean the country off fossil fuels entirely in ten years. Air travel would be outlawed under the proposal as the county would be connected via high-speed rail.
The legislation, in addition to insuring that the nation’s energy needs would be met by solar and wind power, also contains a smorgasbord of items on the progressive wish-list. and sola
The media has enabled the dim witted Congresswoman from the Bronx. Instead of treating her like the cook that she it, she is treated as a rock [click to continue…]

Democrats have no shame
In light of the blackface imbroglio engulfing the Democratic Party of Virginia over Governor Northam’s blackface picture, a flashback is in order.
We have heard the denunciations and calls for NOrtham’s resignation form all the prominent national Democrats. It is interesting and ironic to note, that Northam won the governorship in some measure because he maliciously [click to continue…]

As the architects of political correctness start to eat their own in Virginia, the Northam Incident Reveals the Monumental Silliness of Identity Politics
The essence of the Democratic Party’s philosophy (if one can even characterize it as such) for the past thirty years been to assign individuals with a common identity divide the nation into one unified group or “protected class,” whose interests are protected by the Democratic Party by way of grievance-mongering which includes the idea of the sanctity or inviolability of claims of grievance [click to continue…]

The extreme and unforgiving nature of progressive ideology revealed by the Covington incident will prove to be a watershed moment in the nation’s recent political history. In an unvarnished and startling display of group-think, political correctness and identity politics run amok, the irredeemably corrupt nature of the mainstream media was laid bare.
The lengths to which left-wing journalists were willing to go to destroy the lives of 15 year old’s, should worry all Americans. If the progressive Twitter mob had no qualms about meting out a life-sentence to a group of high school students for smiling at a man beating a drum in their faces, then no one is safe [click to continue…]

Progressives now starting to eat their own
The progressive dogs of identity politics have been unleashed once again and have targeted (or more accurately, have been forced to target) one of their own.
A picture of Virginia Governor Ralph Northam in a Black Face surfaced recently. The photo is from his medical school year book. Northam with his black face costume is standing next to someone in a Ku Klux Klan robe, including the iconic pointed white hood.
Shortly after the picture surfaced, the calls started coming in for his resignation. Republicans condemned the racist photo and calls from Democrats for his resignation followed shortly thereafter.
As the pressure or him to step down mounted, [click to continue…]

Purchase of Red Hat was part of strategic initiative to branch out into the lucrative and burgeoning cloud computing services sector
During the latter part of last year, IBM’s shares have been beaten down over 26%, as the company missed sales estimates for two consecutive quarters and faced skepticism concerning its plans to diversify into other business lines to help rekindle its lackluster growth. Although the company’s revenue increased last year, most of that growth was attributable to the introduction of a new mainframe system. That business dropped 41% in the fourth quarter.
An examination of the chart below highlights how revenue for the company crash-dived during 2018, after cresting at a peaking in 2017.
For its fourth quarter, the company posted earnings per share of $4.87 versus the $4.82 analysts’ consensus. IBM generated [click to continue…]

Earlier in the week, Virginia Governor, Ralph Northam, heartily endorsed, without equivocation, a bill proposed by delegate Nancy Tran that would have permitted abortions up to moment of delivery. Despite the fact that Tran herself, the sponsor of the bill, tried to backtrack when there was an outpouring of protest, Northam reaffirmed his earlier whole hearted endorsement of the gruesome procedure.
Despite the immediate revulsion expressed by many politicians, not one prominent member of the Democratic Party when questioned [click to continue…]

Radical abortion proposals, 70% tax rates and eliminating private health insurance
Several events of this past week, should dispel any doubts as to the direction of today’s Democratic Party. The party has been lurching leftward gradually over the past few years. It has now embraced the most radical, left-wing policies in its history.
First up, Democratic hopeful, Kamala Harris, without blinking an eye, proposed Medicare for all. By her own admission her policy would wipe out all private health insurance plans. When she received push-back from members of her own party, she announced, “I’m flexible.” Got that? Harris is flexible. Such magnanimity.
Next up to bat. Author and self-help guru Marianne Williamson, threw her hat in the ring. Although she is not a viable candidate, her announcement was important for her reparations for slavery proposal, with $10 billion [click to continue…]
