The Council has spoken, the votes have been cast, and the results are in for this week’s Watcher’s Council match up. The president’s mask is off, and it didn’t take long did it?

The Washington Post has called for the United States to intervene in Mali. Well, they actually called for NATO to intervene in the African nation. But NATO is something of a sock puppet for the USA in that NATO cannot legally commit troops without an unanimous vote of the nations in NATO. Here’s some of […]

Apparently, there was an important Revolutionary War battle in South Carolina in January 1781: The Battle of Cowpens. The Ron Paul forces, using the symbolism of the liberation of the Palmetto State from the British, have set up a Money Bomb to commemorate that battle and bring much-needed resources to the RP campaign in SC.

The money primary for the third quarter is about to happen. My background reading tells me that money will be critical. Romney has it; many others do not. Paul has some money but a strong end of the quarter showing will give renewed strength to a campaign that took something of a surprise hit in […]

It appears that it is clear that so-called “eurosceptic” caucus and their supporters in the United Kingdom will find out their friends and foes and one of those foes is the Liberal Democratic party – the Tories’ Coalition partner! Exhibit A from this former trial lawyer is from the Express; the LibDems reveal it was […]

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) took to the floor Friday morning to blast the Democratic majority in the Senate for failing to propose a solution to the looming deficit crisis that could pass either house. “Democrats here in the Senate have offered no solutions that could pass either chamber, not one,” said McConnell.

Bloomberg News reports today, “Vice President Joe Biden welcomed congressional leaders for talks to begin ‘the hard business’ of negotiating an agreement on reducing long-term government deficits. . . . The White House doesn’t plan to offer a new proposal beyond the approach President Barack Obama outlined last month to cut $4 trillion from deficits […]

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 […]

It is hardly news that Cong. Ron Paul won the CPAC straw poll for the second time and in decisive fashion – 36% for Paul and 30% for Mitt Romney. If you add the 6% for Gary Johnson, it is an even more decisive win. Fox News reporting was as is all too true dismissive […]

While the pundits and analysts look over the 2010 elections and try to figure out how good or how bad it was for each side, many seem to have taken their eye off of the massive vulnerability the Democrats will face in 2012. Of the 33 seats presently scheduled for the 2012 election, a whopping […]

What a move by the Republicans! So, do we have freedom of choice or not? Democrats believe strongly in the Constitutional “right” for a woman to chose to have an abortion, but the mandatory requirement that everyone purchase health care really does not give us much of a choice about our health, now does it?
