This week’s drama surrounding the payroll tax cut has reminded American’s of one big thing – Washington is broke! Actually there was one really interesting irony though that happened this week. It used to be people viewed the Senate as being dysfunctional more so than the House. Well we had a bill put out by […]
MSNBC has published a list of the 10 highest paid CEOs in America for 2011. While going through the list, a couple of names really stuck out: 9. Ronald A. Williams Company: Aetna Total 2010 compensation: $57.8 million Shares of Aetna, a major health insurer, were down 7 percent in 2010, underperforming the S&P 500 […]
News was made yesterday when Ron Paul walked out of an interview with CNN’s Gloria Borger when asked about some racist newsletters sent in his name in the 80’s and 90’s. Here’s video of that moment: But was CNN out of bounds here, or is Ron Paul trying not to hold up to his history? […]
It’s hard keeping up with all the flip flops of Mitt Romney (as well as Newt Gingrich), but Mediaite has caught him in a doozie of one: At Christmastime, it’s comforting to know that a Mitt Romney interview is the gift that keeps on giving.

I guess poor Sarah hasn’t got much media attention lately, so now she has decided to drum sum up and what a better way to do that than to attack the White House Christmas card! Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin told Fox News & Commentary that she found the card to be a bit unusual. […]
