To follow up from this earlier post, here is the ad I was talking about: And to show the praise it is getting, look no further than here. Again – we were “traitors” for supporting Lamont over Liberman, yet this AD is a good thing. Things that make you stop and say “hmmmmmm”.
Very interesting article that deserves a good reading. It shows how Blackwater is throwing their hat into the political ring in order to keep some seats in the hands of the GOP. Morale of the story? Republicans will let Blackwater go on with their reckless killing of Iraqis.
That’s what he said last night. Unfortunately for him it’s his own party that is balking at the idea: Even as Bush called on Congress to cut earmarks in half and announced an executive order cracking down on the projects, Republicans in Congress were sending out a mixed message about what their party really stands […]

Once you get past all the lies told last night at the GOP debate, I think there was one important message sent out by all the candidates, except Ron Paul. That message is simple – “We support George Bush”. They tried to pin all the problems in America today on the Democrats. Considering the Democrats […]
Jim Welsh of New York is the latest in the massive GOP exodus from Capital Hill.
We hear Bush saying how he will get rid of earmarks all the time. Well that doesn’t look like the case so much: But Bush hesitates to exercise his authority. Surely he doesn’t fear challenging a Congress that trails him in public approval surveys. House Republican Whip Roy Blunt, R-Mo., has reportedly warned administration officials […]
