Gone is the Balanced Budget Amendment, replaced by the usual “smoke and mirrors” of promised cuts that will never materialize. Worse, the Republicans are giving massive leverage to 6 Democrats on a Tax Panel to push for the very tax increase on the wealthy that Conservatives feel will absolutely crush jobs and unfairly tax businesses, […]

This column in CNN by Maria Cardona made by blood boil. This writer eloquently describes the 87 members of Congress in the Tea Party Caucus as the “Tyranny 0f 87” and in these terms: The tyranny is coming from the 87 members of Congress from the tea party caucus, whose selfish and irresponsible demands during […]

To some on the right, any spending cut at the Federal level is a good thing. And that premise is hard to disagree with. But not all spending cuts are created equal. There is a dark side to non-specific, across the board spending cuts. The budget amendment offered by Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) is a case […]

I was not going to blog on this issue but the combination of Senator Warner’s concern about the debt and Senator Sanders (no relation to this blogger!) ridiculous speech on the rich forced my hand. Let’s start with Senator Warner warning Virginians about hard times ahead. The Times-Dispatch reports that Warner was accurate that the […]

My favorite Democrat (officeholder), Rep. Heath Shuler, is moving toward a run for Speaker of the House. “If there is no viable alternative, I will be running for speaker of the House,” Shuler said during a radio debate with Republican Jeff Miller, the Asheville Citizen-Times reported. My first comment is: Let’s make sure he’s running […]

Looks like Tom Perriello, Democrate incumbent, is going to try to use President Obama to help close the gap in the VA 5th CD race. Robert Hurt, the Republican Candidate, is has been leading in the polls for some time though the lead has narrowed in recent weeks. Perriello’s Campaign announced today that President Obama […]

Well, before getting to the answer for that question, I probably need to tell you who Ciro Rodriguez is. Basically, he’s Pelosi’s lackey in southwest Texas. He’s a Democrat Congressman, hailing from Texas’ 23rd Congressional District (until Quico Canseco beats him in November, anyway). You might recall that about a month ago, he went nuts […]

I was inspired by this comment in a New York Post article about the absurd idea that the funding of opponents of the Ground Zero Mosque should be investigated: She [Pelosi] famously discounted the Tea Party as an “astroturf” movement, directed by the Republican Party. She couldn’t process the idea of a genuine grass-roots revolt […]

This was a Special Election to replace Democrat Murtha, now deceased.

Despite the voter party affiliations, this is a very Conservative district. Of course, Democrat Mark Critz won with 53% of the vote. There were […]

The Progressive Liberals are desperately searching for a silver lining in yesterday’s batch of primaries and elections. The spinners are feigning delight at the “victory” of Joe Sestak, a liberal Progressive that only a Socialist can love. And it is hard to blame the Democrats for celebrating the loss of 30 year career politician Arlen […]
