A Chicago Politician’s Arrogance

Long time Chicago Democratic Politician Monique Davis is the poster child for arrogance. Davis is a State Rep that has been involved in many flaps centered around her assumption of personal imperviousness, her assumption that her office is a shield used to excuse just any activity at all on her part. She is above the […]

 

Public Employees Unions Are Sinking California

Paul Krugman: wrong; off his rocker; and very, very right.

NY Times columnist Paul Krugman wants the House of Representatives to pass the Senate’s health care “reform” bill. They have to pass the Senate’s bill, because Scott Brown’s victory in Massachusetts has given Republicans a 41-59 majority in the Senate. Feels that way, anyway. Doesn’t it? Back to Krugman, who quite wrongly writes: Tuesday’s Republican […]

 

Keith Olbermann: SCOTUS decision on campaign finance will be worse than slavery. And more.

He sure seems to be making that point, anyway. Chief Justice John Roberts is worse, Olbermann writes, than the Chief Justice who wrote the rampantly racist Dred Scott decision in 1857. I’m pointing it out, because it seems wrong to ignore it. I’m not going to discuss it further, because…well, I am the father of […]

Democratic Disaray Attributable To Obama’s Lack Of Leadership

It is so obvious it frustrates me that others are too ideologically or politically blind to admit it. The reason the Democrats are in the shape they’re in today has to do with the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and his obvious lack of leadership. Let me give you the latest example found in […]

 


Massachusetts Aftermath: ‘We the People’ and the Brown Revolution

The Wall Street Journal reported today that Republican Scott Brown edged Martha Coakley among union rank-and-file in Tuesday’s Massachusetts Senate election. Why? I argue that it’s because liberals have ignored the pro-freedom message of the Tea Party movement: But it’s not just Massachusetts, it’s everywhere nowadays. People are tired of the “insider consensus.” They’re tired […]

 

Unions Sign On To Obama’s Penalizing of Banks

According to The Hill, “several union officials” plan to make Obama’s newest attack on America’s banking industry part of their criteria for determining which candidates to support for 2010.

Newt Gingrich: Republicans Should Work With Pelosi

Now that Republicans are making a stunning comeback by riding a wave of public revulsion against the Democrats’ statist agenda, it’s the perfect time to toss principles overboard and revert to the Democrat-Lite Party that disgraced itself by massively expanding the government under Bush. At least, that’s what Newt Gingrich seems to think: Gingrich sees […]

In modern America, the alleged “victim” is always really the aggressor, and the alleged “aggressor” is always the true victim. — Ann Coulter Cindi McCain, who’s still pretty foxy for a woman her age, has done a spread for the NOH8 Campaign — which is a pretty ironic name for a pro-gay marriage group. After […]

 



Five Memes Destroyed by Scott Brown’s Victory

On Tuesday night, Scott Brown shocked the world by defeating Martha Coakley and capturing the seat that Ted Kennedy held for more than 40 years.

Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Good-bye Air America!

After the Scott Brown win, the Supreme Court taking a bite out of McCain-Feingold, and Nancy Pelosi’s announcement that the Dems can’t get the Senate bill through “as is,” you might have thought it couldn’t get any better for conservatives this week.
