The final nail in the GOP coffin this election season would be if the DOJ announced a bunch more indictments in the Abramoff scandal. We know this is not about to happen, but this little bit of information gives us insight into the possibility that they will becoming after elections: Jack Abramoff, the lobbying scandal […]
I came across this clip via Glenn Greenwald. It is from Hannity and Colmes where Cincinnati’s own midget version of Bill O’Reilly, Willie Cunningham, was a guest going on about the “Strickland is gay” school yard tactic that Ken Blackwell’s campaign and the Ohio GOP has launched. Cunningham said one thing that really caught my […]
Pennsylvania is one of the GOP’s “firewall” states they feel they need to keep control of the Senate. Well that firewall must be made by Microsoft because it is failing rapidly: With just a few weeks to go until November 7, Senator Rick Santorum’s chances of securing reelection fade a bit more every day. The […]

I am really beginning to think that the Foley scandal is the GOPs campaign tactic. They want to keep the story out front. Here is my reasoning for this. 1. More top Republican aides keep coming forward and throwing new monkey wrenches in the story. Just today another top aide to Denny Hastert has come […]
61%. That is the number of American adults who believe the Republican leadership has been covering for Foley. That is from the latest Rasmussen poll. Other interesting numbers include: 61% say they are following the Foley story somewhat or very closely. 47% will vote for a Democrat this fall as opposed to only 34% who […]
Watch this video – go puke – then come back for my commentary. This is a typical whine of the wingnuts out there. If you ban then from a site or delete something they say then you are infringing on their rights. This could be taken seriously if I could post a comment on Malkin’s […]
This is from Brian Ross’ Blotter: But according to an instant message provided to ABC News by a former page, Foley did make such an offer to a former page in April, 2003. Maf54: then we can have a few drinks Maf54: lol Teen: yes yes 😉 Maf54: your not old enough to drink Teen: […]
