Two Days Left to Make Brown the 41st Vote

It’s the race that suddenly everyone’s been talking about. As my blog has been covering, the special election to replace Senator Ted Kennedy’s seat may be making history this Tuesday: Brown, a state senator, is beating state attorney general Coakley 50 percent to 46 percent, according to a new Suffolk University/7News poll. Brown’s lead is […]

Understatement of the Year.

The story, via Greg Sargent: This is absolutely brutal: Massachusetts Dems have dropped a mail piece accusing GOP Senate candidate Scott Brown of wanting hospitals to turn away “all” rape victims. …The mailer – paid for by the Massachusetts Democratic Party – says the claim is based on “a law to let emergency hospitals turn […]

Ed Schultz Incites People to Commit Voter Fraud in MA Election

Democracy? We don’t need no stinkin’ Democracy! So says Ed Schultz of MSNBC as he calls for people to cheat in the election in order to “keep these bastards out”. Radio Equalizer has the transcript from Ed Schultz’s radio show yesterday where he proposed “voting 10 times” in Massachusetts. The key quote follows below: SCHULTZ […]

Video: Silicon Graffiti — “The Pinchurian Candidate”

The weekend before November’s elections, Frank Rich of the New York Times wrote a curious column titled, “The G.O.P. Stalinists Invade Upstate New York.”

On the other hand, it was rather refreshing to see a journalist with the New York Times use the word pejoratively. Needless to say, that hasn’t always been the case, as we’ll explore in the latest edition of our Silicon Graffiti videoblog…

Springtime For Roosevelt

At one press conference, FDR displayed a Nazi Iron Cross and said it should be presented to a columnist of the New York Daily News who was one of the president’s most bitter critics. It is enough to make the Obama administration’s treatment of Fox News look timid.

Does Obama trip to Massachusetts presage Coakley’s failure?

The last and best word on the subject is that Obama is going to Massachusetts to bring his prestige to bear on the upcoming Massachusetts Senatorial election. You can hear Coakley confirm this, even as she makes the stunning statement — stunning considering that she’s hoping to represent Massachusetts in the United States Senate — […]

So what would he look like with another fifty pounds on him?

They’ll be putting him on a milk carton next. Using sophisticated digital enhancement techniques, the FBI today published “aged progressed” mug shots of Osama bin Laden and 17 other top terrorists wanted by the U.S. FBI forensic artists produce an enhanced image of the top terrorist. One version of bin Laden shows him with a […]

Danny Glover Says ‘The Wrath of Gaia Is Punishing You, Haiti’

That’s right. As Tim Blair reports, Danny Glover claims that the failure to act on “climate change” in Copenhagen is what caused the earthquake in Haiti. Gaia is vengeful! Repent, you Global Warming Deniers! Since all Christians are held responsible for what Pat Robertson says, then I assume that all whom believe in Global Warming ™ are responsible for what Glover says, yes? Since they are both religions and all.

President Will Hurt Coakley’s Chances

Twelve months ago, if President Obama made a trip to campaign for a candidate it may have helped. The president has hurt his most loyal supporters most, which is why in the most liberal states like Massachusetts, there is a fear that republicans will start winning. Remember in 2008 when John McCain did not want […]

Charlie Cook: ‘Colossal Miscalculation On Health Care’

From Charlie Cook, at National Journal, “Colossal Miscalculation On Health Care: Obama and Hill Democrats Should Have Focused Much More on the Economy“: Honorable and intelligent people can disagree over the substance and details of what President Obama and congressional Democrats are trying to do on health care reform and climate change. But nearly a […]

Now WE Will Pay for Unions Fancy Healthcare Packages

As if there were ever any doubts, the unions bosses that descended upon the White House earlier in the week appear to have succeeded in getting their members excluded from the so-called Cadillac taxes on expensive healthcare packages. The Obama administration, having been bought and paid for by unions, agreed to demands that unions be […]

Watching Liberals Turn On Each Other is Fun!

When Nancy Pelosi loses the old crank, Jack Cafferty, of all people, you know times are tough for the Democrats. Heck of a job, Nancy! Seriously, I mean it. You are improving my mood greatly, due to the many pointing and snickering opportunities that you provide. Cafferty: pulled one of his: famous hit and runs, only this […]

Tea Party Nation: Scandal, Shock, & Sarah Palin.

Rarely do I do a post just to promote someone else’s work, but my friend and co-blogger, Melissa Clouthier, has done an outstanding piece of original reporting on the Tea Party Nation event that Sarah Palin is headlining next month. Before any liberals get too excited, no, Sarah Palin hasn’t done anything wrong, but the […]

Dems Now Spinning Scott Brown As Being Very Liberal

I love the smell of desperation in the morning. It smells like …….. victory. Democrat Boris Shor is trying to spin that Scott Brown is more liberal than Dede Scozzafova To my mind, the election is fascinating for another reason. Brown is attracting very positive national and state Republican and conservative attention. On the other […]

Chgo Trib Wants ‘Reform,’ Yet Endorses Machine Candidates

On Dec. 27th, the Chicago Tribune sternly scolded our Illinois political class saying that we need “reform” in Illinois. The Trib announced that with all the past corruption they’d had “enough.” And they promised to launch a “pre-primary push to elect better” politicians. Well, who could disagree with that? Illinois has one of the most […]

Dems Prepare for Complete Coakley Meltdown

This is an unusual headline for a major news story with just days remaining in the race: “Coakley underestimated Scott Brown in Mass. Senate race. And that’s at the Boston Globe too, where the editors just endorsed the lackluster Coakley over the insurgent Republican Brown: After Attorney General Martha Coakley sailed largely unscathed through the […]

Obama’s Failure Can Be Blamed On Congressional Democrats

There is a lot of analysis going on about Obama’s first year and why, it seems, his job approval numbers are so dismal. And why, given the promise he brought to the White House, at least according to the PR faithfully pushed by his campaign, are Democrats looking at the possibility of large net losses […]

Dems Losing Hope In Mass. As Brown Surges Ahead

But, but, but, Democrats are ENTITLED to Kennedy’s old seat. Snort Riding a wave of opposition to Democratic health-care reform, GOP upstart Scott Brown is leading in the U.S. Senate race, raising the odds of a historic upset that would reverberate all the way to the White House, a new poll shows. Although Brown’s 4-point […]

This Is How We Win

What is happening in Massachusetts right now is incredible by any measure. The Democrats are so scared of losing this seat to Republican Scott Brown, they now have Pres. Obama coming to stump for Democrat: Martha Coakley. Even if Brown loses, the fact that he came so close in this bluer than blue state tells us […]

Haiti Earthquake Brings Out The Quacks

As Michelle Malkin points out, Danny Glover is the left’s Pat Robertson. Tim Blair: “Actor Danny Glover believes that the Haitian earthquake was caused by climate change and global warming…”When we see what we did at the climate summit in Copenhagen, this is the response, this is what happens, you know what I’m sayin’?” In […]

Coakley May Not Have to Win to Win

Scott Brown beating Martha Coakley at the polls won’t necessarily mean it’s over for the Dems. After all, appealing to voters has been rejected as an electoral strategy in favor of cheating — and the Massachusetts Secretary of State Bill Galvin has a history of playing games with absentee ballots: In 2008 [Galvin] was found […]

Alec Baldwin Reveals Liberal Energy Policy

Hollywood played a major role in Chairman Zero’s rise to power, tirelessly hyping him and raising massive amounts of money. It must delight Tinseltown royalty that with their man in power, they can now see their ideology applied. Among the most politically active actors is Alec Baldwin, who even had his own political talk show […]

Why Health Care Isn’t A Shoe-In To Pass The House

If you’re a member who voted no after the uproar these plans have caused, how do you vote yes? I mean, really. Those who voted no probably went home and got slapped on the back. Those of us who voted yes got slapped across the head with a two-by-four. — Bart Stupak One of my […]

Obama Bringing More Terrorists To US For Civilian Trials?

Somebody has some hope these days, namely, those terrorists sitting around at Club Gitmo. They all know that a civilian trial will afford them the opportunity to rail against America (and have the far left agree with all their assertions), as well as the chance to be found not guilty or let off on a […]

The Details: Coakley, Amirault, Woodward And Souza

After reading a post by Michelle Malkin that mentions the issue of: an over-zealous prosecution by Martha Coakley: in the Amirault case, and also following up on a link by Instapundit to a Radley Balko item, I first went digging around to see if Coakley: had ever commented on the Amirault: case. Coakley declined to be interviewed for Dorothy […]
