Obama Hovers From On High

June 13, 2009 at 9:30 pm

From Charles Krauthhammer in yesterday’s Washington Post…a worrying analysis of B Hussein Obama’s ideas on “Moral Equivalency”. “Even on freedom of religion, Obama could not resist the compulsion to find fault with his own country: “For instance, in the United States, rules on charitable giving have made it harder for […]

How To ‘Earn’ Citizenship

June 13, 2009 at 8:00 pm

Spotted yesterday on A Tangled Web who in turn hat/tip’s The Mail. Immigrants will be eligible for fast-tracked passports if, within six years, they perform 50 hours of community service. This would shave two years off of the usual period to get to properly get elbow-room on the benefits ladder. […]

Who Really Made Money In Expenses-Gate?

June 13, 2009 at 7:28 pm

Not being a reader of the Grauniad I’m grateful for a nod in the direction of this article by Peter Wilby: “The Telegraph group, by my calculations, probably sold an average 60,000 full-price papers a day (including Sundays) that it would not otherwise have sold, taking into account that, on […]

Great Job Titles Of Our Time

June 13, 2009 at 6:02 pm

News from North Korea: South Korea’s mass-circulation JoongAng Ilbo newspaper tells us yesterday: “The youngest son of North Korea’s authoritarian leader has been given the title of “Brilliant Comrade,” ….. a sign the communist regime is preparing to name him as successor to the ailing Kim Jong Il. And you […]

What Is The BBC Actually For?

June 13, 2009 at 3:44 pm

Conservative MP Christopher Chope is a good egg. Always liked him and glad to see him back in the House of Commons. Don’t always agree with him but he shares a few of TheEye’s interests, including the status and future of the BBC. So it was noted with interest that […]

Where Is The Real Threat?

June 13, 2009 at 2:30 pm

The sound you hear in the background is that of sabres being rattled. Iran, North Korea…they are all testing the resolve of the victor of the Obama Beach invasion. Now China are stepping up their efforts too. On Thursday, in what Obama would probably call “the new spirit of diplomacy” […]

Pick a Scumbag…Any Scumbag

June 12, 2009 at 8:06 pm

Rather like any bad game of rigged cards (and TheEye has been involved in his share) we learn nothing about the Iranian elections from the BBC. Vote for a scumbag…same as the last scumbag. Except the bias is rather entertaining. They are very excited about the election taking place between […]

The UK And The Euro

June 12, 2009 at 11:27 am

Co-conspirators on this site are scattered across the world and David Vance has published this most interesting article on A Tangled Web about the Euro but with an Irish slant. Read the whole article here but here is the first paragraph: “I see that our acting Prime Minister, Lord Mandelson, […]

Lady Thatcher Out Of Hospital

June 12, 2009 at 10:59 am

Just as over on A Tangled Web, the co-conspirators on All Seeing Eye all have different views on many things which is what makes it fun. However it is with concern that TheEye, who is an admirer, learns via ConHome’s Twitter that Lady Thatcher was taken to the Chelsea and […]

WISHING THE BARONESS WELL.

June 12, 2009 at 10:47 am

I am sure all readers of The Eye will join with me in wishing Baroness Thatcher a speedy recovery following her hospitalisation this morning after suffering a fall at her London home. This great lady may be in the autumn of her life but I trust she is with us […]
