I don’t condone the attacks on children of politicians. I really think it isn’t right, but that’s just me. I can see other people getting into it and even having some Photoshop fun. But just as attacking the children is wrong, so is using them for political cover. How often did we see the Obama […]

I’m still catching up on all the news of Honduras, but I found this article to not be that newsworthy: The Obama administration worked in recent days to prevent President Manuel Zelaya’s ouster, said a senior U.S. official. The State Department, in particular, communicated to Honduran officials on the ground that President Barack Obama wouldn’t […]

Chris Cillizza thinks we could be seeing the emergence of a new Republican Leader in Lindsey Graham: Graham, who spent the 2008 election cycle as Sen. John McCain‘s loyal sidekick, appeared alongside former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, the GOP frontrunner in advance of 2012, and managed to stand out. Why?

Judge Richard Posner thinks that should be the case: Expanding copyright law to bar online access to copyrighted materials without the copyright holder’s consent, or to bar linking to or paraphrasing copyrighted materials without the copyright holder’s consent . . .

Take John Edwards, Bill Clinton, Elliot Spitzer or Jim McGreevey. These four Democrats suffered severely for their extramarital affairs. One was impeached, two were […]

We all knew this was coming, but now its official: Detroit City Council President Pro Tem Monica Conyers pleaded guilty this morning to conspiring to commit bribery and is free on personal bond. U.S. District Judge Avern Cohn said, “The defendant now stands convicted.” The one count of conspiring to commit bribery is punishable for […]

Childish crap like this helps no one: After the House floor had largely cleared following a series of votes, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) and Appropriations Chairman David Obey (D-Wis.) split apart from a heated conversation and began yelling at one another. “You’re out of line,” Waters shot while walking down toward the well. “You’re out […]

Wow what a day. Farah Fawcett and Michael Jackson both dead and both still rather young. A very sad day in the entertainment world.

Just go this: Sure he’ll pay it back, but that doesn’t excuse the fact that he did it to begin with. While this asshole was out showboating over his rejection of the stimulus funds, he knew damn good and well that he was abusing taxpayers dollars. This guy is a major fraud and shouldn’t be […]
