Forums: Halloween Costume

By now you’ve probably heard about the “Alice in Wonderland”-themed Halloween party that Obama threw back in 2009 and which the White House tried to cover up (a charge they’re already furiously denying). Here at PJM Belladonna Rogers and J. Christian Adams have already blogged about it, so there’s no need for me to go into the details any further. But the question everyone’s asking is: Where are the photos? Well, unfortunately, it seems that the Obamas successfully banned discouraged photographers from inside the party itself. But all is not lost: There were a few photos taken inside of Johnny...

Well, I’ve just finished scouring the White House visitor logs. Regular readers know I seem to be one of the few in the media who actually does such a thing. Regular readers also know that I’ve pointed out time and again that the logs are incomplete, misleading, obtuse, and designed to make it as difficult as possible to figure out who has visited and when. So, it is no surprise that neither director Tim Burton nor actor Johnny Depp — hosts of the big 2009 Hollywood Halloween bash at the White House — show up in the visitor logs. At...

The U.S. Air Force Academy has pulled out of a Christian-sponsored children’s toy drive after commanders were accused of religious intolerance. Mikey Weinstein, an academy graduate who runs the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, said the academy’s participation in Operation Christmas Child is inappropriate because of its evangelical Christian roots. Operation Christmas Child is sponsored by Samaritan’s Purse, headed by Franklin Graham — the son of evangelist Billy Graham. It packs toys and other items into shoe boxes and sends them to needy children around the world, along with a Christian message in each gift. “This is arrogance beyond measure,” Weinstein...

I just ran across this appalling story at WorldNetDaily. Leroy Carhart is one of the most notorious abortionists in America, known for performing abortions late into pregnancy, and describing the process of dismembering unborn babies with bone-chilling frankness. It seems that his staff aren’t much better…: It was Halloween, and pro-life singles and families were praying outside the Germantown, Md., abortion business of LeRoy Carhart when two of his staffers handed little children bags of “treats.” But inside were not the typical chocolate or bubble gum enticements. There were condoms. Before opening his own late-term abortion shops of horror, Carhart...

Angry extreme left-wing protesters lash out at tent to tent trick-or-treaters at Occupy Wall St. Hahaha. Cheers!

A 10-year-old Aiken trick-or-treater pulled a gun on a woman who said she would take his candy on Halloween. According to a police incident report, the 28-year-old victim told authorities she recognized some boys from her neighborhood while they were trick or treating near Schroeder and George streets around 6:30 p.m. and jokingly told them she would take their candy. One 10-year-old in the group of approximately 10 juveniles responded with “no you’re not ...” and then pointed a 9mm handgun at her. According to Aiken Public Safety Lt. David Turno, the clip was not in the gun at the...

President Obama's Halloween Message White House, October 31, 2011 Good morning. Nearly 500 years ago, the people of Scotland set aside this evening as All-Hallows-Even, that is, the night before All Hallows Day. Since then, the ancestors of Americans have looked for inspiration in the giving and receiving of treats on this night. Americans have long enjoyed dressing up in festive costumes at parties or to usher children from door to door to “trick or treat”. Nothing could be more American! We honor this tradition that reminds us how spreading wealth raises the prospects of families who are struggling in...

Political thoughts on Halloween At Halloween time, our children dress up in their scariest costumes, but if they’re too scared, the masks can always come off. Teenagers go to the movie theater for their fright, but as terrifying as a horror movie may be, the kids can always just head back to the lobby “for some popcorn and soda” until they’ve calmed down. Some are afraid of the dark; they can just turn on the light. Some are afraid of the neighborhood; they can invest in a burglar alarm system, or move to where it’s safer. So many of the...
