This Bloomberg op-ed piece shows that there is a glimmer of hope for the UK to leave the EU. Usually, what happens in these “Europe” referenda, we have the business community (especially the banks), rock stars, community leaders, supermodels probably too, and of course the Tweedledee and Tweedledum political parties all united to support whatever [...]

This new article by the Guardian has some nuggets for UKIP supporters like me: First, the BNP once drew 10%+ in an election and UKIP is certainly skeptical on immigration and non-racist like BNP: Nick Griffin’s party polled 10.4% of the Rotherham vote in the 2010 general election. Immigration is a big issue in the [...]

Trying to find any sense in President Obama’s stunning rejection of the Keystone XL pipeline and the 20,000 jobs it would have created, columnist Robert Samuelson writes today, “It isn’t often that a president makes a decision that has no redeeming virtues and — beyond the symbolism — won’t even advance the goals of the [...]

The awesome Ron Paul 2012 ad I featured here at Virginia Right a few days ago, is slated for running in Nevada: An ad that began running Friday in the first-in-the-nation caucus and primary states of Iowa and New Hampshire will extend to Nevada, which comes third in the nation’s caucus calendar. “Nevada is a [...]

President Obama announced to the enemy last night that they have won. He is pulling out troops and all the Taliban need do is wait a while longer to take over Afghanistan. We are walking away with our mission accomplished – thanks to the fact that we never defined our mission. I urged Obama to [...]

So, the completely corrupt and clueless Democratic Congressman from New York, Charlie Rangel was censured yesterday by his Congressional peers, all of whom pretend censure was… a punishment of immense proportion. “Only a couple in the last 100 years,” and “a rare vote to censure a sitting member of Congress” were the buzz phrases in [...]

Oh dear. Is Mike Castle joining the ‘I’m ignoring the will of the people because I’m so indispensable to my State’ gang? What part of ‘NO THANKS’ don’t Castle and MeeeeeerCOWskee understand? We’re done with RINOs selling us out at posh cocktail parties inside the Beltway. Take your medicine. The fact that Castle is even considering a write-in campaign automatically disqualifies him as a Statesman. Your constituency has spoken, sir. Kindly step aside. Same goes with the shrew from the land of Igloos. Meanwhile, Saturday Night Live continues its role as operatives for the Democrat Party with this unfunny skit regarding Christine O’Donnell. They convinced America that Palin said she could see Russia from her house, now they’re on to their next assignment, painting the Delaware Senate candidate as even more peculiar than the slip and fall media does on a daily basis. Yes. Flying off on a broom was oh so clever, wasn’t it? I’m waiting for next week when they pillory her opponent for being a self proclaimed Marxist.

David Nuttall was elected MP in the 2010 General Election as a Conservative for the constituency of Bury North. (Here’s his bio from Wikipedia and here’s his personal web site) I could call him a Young Turk but he is only a few years younger than me; however, he has the spirit of the Young [...]

“Here in Rome Ted Kennedy is nobody. He’s a legend with his own constituency,” says the Vatican official. “If he had influence in the past it was only with the Archdiocese of Boston and that eventually disappeared too.” Some say the final sunset on the Kennedy name within Catholic halls of power was the Vatican’s decision in 2007 to overturn the annulment of the first marriage of former U.S. Rep. Joe Kennedy, the eldest son of Robert Kennedy. The successful appeal by Joe Kennedy’s ex-wife Sheila Rauch, an Episcopalian, was another blow for the Kennedy image in Catholic circles.
