The House Republicans don’t want to talk about the war. Their defensive play of the week is to avoid the Iraq debate going on in the House. The following is from a letter circulated by Republican leadership and obtained by Steny Hoyer: We are writing to urge you not to debate the Democratic Iraq resolution […]
Aww look at this picture from the Huffington Post:: Boehner could not stand to hear the stories of a colleagues time as a POW. The AP has this to say: Republicans, now the minority party on the Hill for the time in 12 years, issued impassioned warnings of the consequences of undermining the president’s […]
Lying to get us into war is no problem. Executing a war in such a poor fashion is no problem. Violating the civil rights of millions of Americans – ehh it’s ok. Violating the Constitution by vigorous use of “signing statements” – well they will give him a pass. All that doesn’t matter, but immigration […]
Funny how the same party that argued “if people can’t survive on minimum wage, they need to work more” is bitching like a bunch of children about having to work a full 5 day week. The Politico has an article up with such quotes as this: “They should really work us so we get things […]

68 House Republicans broke ranks with their party to support the new ant-terrorism measures, while the rest voted against it. These are the recommendations of the 9/11 commission. Why do so many of these Republicans want our ports open for terrorists and our nation put in harms way? Perhaps Osama is lobbying them.
I guess it is if you are a Democrat, but Republicans seem to be ok with it (from Raw Story): An economist who once served as President Reagan’s Assistant Secretary of the Treasury compares President George W. Bush to Adolf Hitler in a column at the libertarian website Anti-war.com. “Bush is like Hitler,” Paul Craig […]
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.
