Just reading Eric Erickson’s post on RedState trying to spin NY-23 into a great victory, I can’t help but notice his closing: For all intents and purposes, NY-23 is a trial run for Florida. And in Florida, the conservative candidate is operating inside the GOP. If John Cornyn and the NRSC do not want to […]
So says the New York Times. Cesca does a good job at tearing this trash piece by the NYT down: Every Republican in Congress defends Rush Limbaugh and parrots Glenn Beck, and all of the really important Republicans from Chuck Grassley to Big John Cornyn have at one time or another engaged in the “death […]
Last week Sen. John Cornyn put out a web ad fighting to keep the wasteful F-22 project alive. One of the reasons was simply crazy: “It’s important to our national security because we’re not just fighting wars in Afghanistan and Iraq,” Cornyn says. “We’re fighting — we have graver threats and greater threats than that: […]
Somebody has just publically gone against the leadership of the Republican Party: A top Senate Republican is taking aim at recent statements from conservative commentators Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich suggesting Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor is a “racist.” “I think it’s terrible,” Sen. John Cornyn, the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, told […]
There is a growing movement out there for Norm Coleman to throw in the towel, and it’s not just limited to the right. Ramesh Ponnuru, a senior editor for the National Review and right wing pundit writes a simple one line post regarding Coleman: I think it’s time for him to give up this fight. […]

McClatchy goes there: John McCain made a quick stop at the Capitol one day last spring to sit in on Senate negotiations on the big immigration bill, and John Cornyn was not pleased. Cornyn, a mild-mannered Texas Republican, saw a loophole in the bill that he thought would allow felons to pursue a path to […]
Barack Obama and John Cornyn call for an investigation into the VA using our veterans as guinea pigs with respect to new drugs. Interesting enough, one of the drugs the VA has been testing on our veterans is Chantix, which is supposed to help you quit smoking. I tried Chantix last year, and it didn’t […]
It looks like “five in the noogin” John Gibson isn’t making enough off of his “War on Christmas” book so the conservatives are willing to lend him a hand: The “War on Christmas” has morphed into a “War on Christians.” Last December, some evangelical Christian groups declared that the religious celebration of Christmas — and […]
After reading AMERICABlog this morning and seeing his entry of how Bush is planning on using the State of the Union Address as a GOP campaign platform, I have decided to help Bush with his speech. First of Mr. President, I hope you use as much time as possible to attack those liberals out there […]
