With all the talk of Mukasey, Pakistan and O.J., it seems like there is a much larger story missing from the MSM. Here is a chart of our stock market this week: Our economy is looking at some serious trouble. Lots of news has fueled this, like retailers reporting very sluggish sales in October, forcing […]
Glenn Greenwald highlights this little part of Schumer’s speech last night during the confirmation of Mukasey: [The most amazing quote was from chief Mukasey supporter Chuck Schumer, who, before voting for him, said that Mukasey is “wrong on torture — dead wrong.” Marvel at that phrase: “wrong on torture.” Six years ago, there wasn’t even […]
He won’t say: Rudy Giuliani refused to say if he’d consider pardoning his old friend Bernie Kerik – who was indicted Thursday on federal corruption charges – if elected President. “It wouldn’t be fair to ask that question at this point,” the Republican presidential hopeful said in an exclusive interview in Dubuque, Iowa, just hours […]

Ernie Fletcher’s 2005 pardons of his aides to unseat the Republican incumbent. Beshear, a former lieutenant governor and attorney general, also completed an […]
Worse President Ever! Meanwhile, Bush reached an unwelcome record. By 64%-31%, Americans disapprove of the job he is doing. For the first time in the history of the Gallup Poll, 50% say they “strongly disapprove” of the president. Richard Nixon had reached the previous high, 48%, just before an impeachment inquiry was launched in 1974. […]
I used to really like Chuck Schumer. Those feelings have changed in recent history. He is not a man of principal – he is a man of covering his own ass. In today’s New York Times, he has authored an Op-Ed explaining his reason for supporting Mukasey: I AM voting today to support Michael B. […]
For those that don’t remember Wilkes, he is one of the people buying influence from former Republican Rep. Randy Cunningham. He has been convicted on all 13 charges against him: A U.S. District Court jury has convicted Brent Wilkes on all 13 counts in his corruption trial. The Poway defense contractor had been accused by […]
