Here’s a disturbing article on Senator Graham and drone attacks on US citizens in POLITICO. Let’s start here: Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) will offer a resolution next week commending President Barack Obama’s use of drones and the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki. “Every member of Congress needs to get on board,” Graham said. “It’s not fair […]

While Senator DeMint is seeking help to fight the CRPD, the Trojan horse to bring radical law to the US while undermining our sovereignty, his colleague, Senator Lindsey Graham, is undecided: Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Seneca, S.C., Republican and close ally of McCain, hasn’t taken a position on the accord, which is backed by several […]

Earlier this month, President Obama made a big show about rolling out a “to-do” list he had for Congress. In a speech in Albany, NY, he said, “[T]oday I’m announcing a handy little ‘To-Do’ list that we’ve put together for Congress. You can see it for yourselves at whitehouse.gov. It’s about the size of a Post-It note, so every member of […]

What a hypocrite. DNC Chairman Debbie Wasserman Schultz is running around the country in her new hair-do blasting Mitt Romney for not releasing his income tax returns for 2011 (and I think she wants his W-2’s for a paper route as well!). But guess who has not released her own taxes? That’s right! The Wasser-Woman […]

Did you hear the latest on Massachusetts “Conservative” Senator Scott Brown? He is all in on Obama’s unconstitutional recess appointment of Richard Cordray as head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. And he is getting some positive press from supporting Obama here. Unfortunately, it is from the Huffington Post. GOP leaders bitterly accused the president of […]

My former governor, who I voted for for both attorney general and governor, and who I supported for President in 2008 until Ron Paul announced his candidacy (the story is too weird for me not to tell: I had JUST sent in my resume to Governor Gilmore’s email box at his posh law firm in […]

A post on Erick Erickson’s RedState Blog lets Republicans know in no uncertain terms how much he hates the proposal by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky). Erickson is so opposed to the plan (plot!) that he has publicly stated that it is the policy of RedState to oppose any Republican who supports McConnell for […]

There is one candidate if he ran for President I would support right now besides Cong. Ron Paul and it is Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal. He is an amazing office holder.

Vermont is home to one Democrat Senator (Patrick Leahy) and one self-called socialist independent (Bernie Sanders – no relation!) and one Democrat member of Congress. It is one of the most liberal states in the Union. But even here, there is signs of life: Two great anti-ICLEI blogs. The first is Vermont for Evolution, a […]

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 […]

What is an earmark? According to Taxpayers Against Earmarks: In general, it is a provision inserted in the text of a Congressional bill or report that allocates money or a tax benefit for a specific project, program, or organization, circumventing a merit-based or competitive allocation process. There are many reasons to be “against earmarks.” Earmarks […]

Just after Democrats passed their unpopular health care bill, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) declared on Meet the Press, “As people learn about the bill, it’s going to be more and more popular. By November, those who voted for health care will find it an asset, those who voted against it will find it a liability.” […]

I am disappointed in the Delaware Senate primary. On the one hand, I think Rep. Castle was beat by too many liberal votes. On the other, I fervently wanted him to win primarily due to the numismatic aspect of Castle’s career. But people decided; I respect that. Maybe another member of Congress will take up […]

Public Policy Polling ran a poll on 2012 preferences (Thanks to the Humble Libertarian for the original article). It’s mostly bad news for the GOP. No one beats Obama in a two person race. But former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee (44-46) and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney (42-45) do best while former House Speaker Newt […]
