Last year, Ken Mehlman was always appearing on different talk shows, but his message was always the same. He would constantly resort to his meme of “the Democrats are not unified”. It was becoming his greatest jab at the minority party. Here we are in 2007 and now the tables are turned. In the House […]
Wolf Blitzer just got done with a White House briefing. They are saying that Army and Marines will have their tours extended 3-6 months. Also additional National Guard will be called up as well as reserves. The financial side of this is “well into the billions”. This will throw a renewed voice into the debate […]
Last night during Anderson Cooper, I finally had it. I heard the following statement for the millionth time yesterday and blew up: Will the Democrats start investigations to get back at Republicans? Since when is oversight, as provided by the Constitution, some sort of “payback”? This is the new meme the so-called “liberal” media is […]
And a new story has emerged that he MUST answer for: President Bush has quietly claimed sweeping new powers to open Americans’ mail without a judge’s warrant, the Daily News has learned. The President asserted his new authority when he signed a postal reform bill into law on Dec. 20. Bush then issued a “signing […]
The WORST Governor in the history of Ohio: The state Supreme Court on Wednesday publicly reprimanded Ohio Gov. Bob Taft for his ethics violations in office, a black mark that will stay on his permanent record as an attorney.

President Bush is bracing for what could be an onslaught of investigations by the new Democratic-led Congress by hiring lawyers to fill key White House posts and preparing to play defense on countless document requests and possible subpoenas. Bush is moving quickly to fill vacancies within his stable of lawyers, though White House officials say […]
Wonkette: Pro-gun Democrats did better in the midterms than probably any other class of politician, but the National Rifle Association is not in the business of reflecting moderate political reality. The NRA lives off memberships, and the standard card-carrying member has two enemies: Democrats and … deer, most likely. But even loyalists go soft, as […]
With the victory of Ciro Rodriguez in TX-23 last night, many have forgot who to really thank. I even forgot, but Kos reminded me. This is the sweet gift of one Tom Delay. His redistricting plan in Texas, which could still land him in jail, was a big winner for Democrats. (Graphic courtesy of […]
Reuters is reporting this on the news of Bolton’s resignation: “Despite the support of a strong bipartisan majority of senators, Ambassador Bolton’s confirmation was blocked by a Democrat filibuster, and this is a clear example of the breakdown in the Senate confirmation process,” [Dana] Perino said. Now at last check, the Bolton nomination was till […]
Earlier today our commander idiot in chief had this to say: President Bush said on Tuesday the hand of al Qaeda lay behind the sectarian violence racking Iraq, and deflected talk of “civil war.” So that means our number one enemy is behind all our troubles then. Great – that means our military should be […]
