The National Republican Senatorial Committee (the NRSC) sent me an email with the loaded question “Are You Still a Republican?” as the subject. Well, I’m certainly not a Democrat. That much I know for sure. And there was a time that a Republican could have been considered the opposite of a Democrat. Democrats want […]

Only in the delusional minds of spend-drunk Progressive Democrats is the TEA Party to blame for the Standard and Poor downgrade of the US credit worthiness. The TEA Party has demanded fiscal responsibility from the Federal Government like the group Mother’s Against Drunk Driving (MADD) has demanded drivers remain sober. In the same way a […]
