With Americans facing the largest tax hike in U.S. history and the Pentagon facing defense cuts the Secretary of Defense says would be “devastating,” with not a single appropriations bill passed in the Senate and with more than 3 years without a budget, Senate Democrats are of course ignoring all of these things today and instead [...]

ABC News wrote yesterday, “Will the Supreme Court take another crack at its ‘Citizens United’ ruling? “Justices are scheduled Thursday behind closed doors to discuss Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the landmark 2010 decision holding that corporations can make unlimited independent expenditures using general treasury funds to support or oppose candidates. “Why would [...]

We are still in the first inning and the Democrats have burned Boehner for what looks like the third homer of the inning. This bill is a mess. Now the Republicans have adopted the tactics that Nancy Pelosi used to ram ObamaCare through. Late night sessions behind closed doors making horrible deals to try to [...]

Yesterday, Senate Republicans stood united to filibuster the Democrats’ “Disclose Act,” a partisan assault on the First Amendment, designed to rig the fall elections in Democrats’ favor. The bill was written by the man in charge of electing Democrats in the House, Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), and the man who just recently had the [...]

For those of you thinking that Charlie Rangel has finally been caught, please don’t get your hopes up. The verdict is fixed, and Speaker Pelosi has spoken. There will be a bit of a “tough” theatrical show, Democrats will guffaw behind closed doors and Republicans will demand Rangel’s head on a platter, but the final [...]

One of the dirty little secrets the Mainstream Media fails to talk about is the pervasive racism found among the Progressives. They pretend to be a friend to African-Americans, but the fact is, they view blacks as useful idiots whose only value is their overwhelming tendency to vote for Democrats.

President Obama and Democrats in Congress are asking the American people trust them that their financial regulation bill ends bailouts, but over the last year Democrats have given Americans numerous reasons to be skeptical.
When Congress passed President Obama’s $862 billion stimulus bill, the administration was assuring members that the bill would keep unemployment around 8% and create 3 to 4 million jobs. Yet late last year the unemployment rate was 10.2% and has since hovered at 9.7%. And over 3 million jobs were lost during the course of 2009.

The new Obama, freshly chastised by Massachusetts voters, slammed by laughter at his “I still don’t get it” response is now looking to shave a cat’s whisker off of the massive spending he has inflicted on Americans.
Like the kid that ate a whole box of dozen doughnuts, Obama now forgoes licking the box.

For all the lefty blogs pretending their knickers are in a knot, please pipe down and get a grip.
If incoming Governor Bob McDonnell were a Democrat, the liberal blogs would totally expect that on inauguration day, all promises and programs discussed during the campaign would go out the window, replaced by the hidden agenda nobody talked about.

Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House the power to disconnect private-sector computers from the Internet.
They’re not much happier about a revised version that aides to Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, have spent months drafting behind closed doors. CNET News has obtained a copy of the 55-page draft of S.773 (excerpt), which still appears to permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency.

This is a CNN video about President Obama talking about how he will change the way things are done in Health Care. He promised to negotiate on CSPAN. However, when it came down to trying to pass Health Care, Obama goes into the back rooms, behind closed doors and makes a deal with the very people he said were the problem.
It looks like CNN may finally be having buyer’s remorse.
