| August 26, 20 10 Until the Second Battle of El Alamein in November 1942, it definitely looked like the Allies might lose the African 'Western Desert Campaign' and, with it, all of World War II. The world seemed destined to suffer the wrath of Hitler's evil Third Reich. But the Allies didn't lose that key campaign thanks largely to the cunning, determination and genius of General Bernard Montgomery and the free European forces under his command.  Upon hearing news of the...

| August 25, 20 10 The  Blue Jersey   blogging community skews far-left, Save Jerseyans, but I've rarely been offended or shocked by anything their typically-civil bloggers have written... until now. The contributor  "KendalJames"   got lost on his way back to Looneyville and commented on your Blogger-in-Chief's  Tuesday morning post   discussing Ground Zero Mosque imam  Feisal Abdul Rauf's   outrageous anti-American remarks . Call me "naive," but I'd like to think that all... Read Full Story

| August 25, 20 10 During the prolonged ObamaCare debate, many of the plan's critics (including your Blogger-in-Chief) questioned the rush to pass a healthcare package. Was there really a large and urgent demand for government-subsidized health insurance? Or were Democrat leaders' motivations to move things along more political than humanitarian? After all, it's well-established that Obama's  "47 million uninsured Americans" line   is rubbish. Only the marketplace can efficiently... Read Full Story

| August 25, 20 10 The Guv returned to Morning Joe today to discuss his latest approval ratings, Save Jerseyans. On the program's set, however, I think his approval rating is closer to 100%. Watch: Read Full Story

| August 25, 20 10 Do you factor  winning the lottery  into your family's annual budget, Save Jerseyans? What about the small business owners out there in this blog's audience... do you collect scratch-off tickets and pray for the best when it's time to satisfy your company's payroll obligations? Of course not! Sure, you'd happily  accept  the money if awarded but you'd be a fool to count on it, particularly at the expense of responsibly managing the resources already in your...

| August 25, 20 10 Apparently it also runs through Bergen County, Save Jerseyans.  Right through  New Jersey U.S. Attorney  Paul Fishman 's   backyard, to be exact. I can't think of another explanation for  his strange remarks   printed in yesterday's  Star-Ledger . The River Edge native told reporter  Bob Braun  that New Jersey -- are you ready for this? --  does  not  have a "culture of corruption."  That's one I've never heard before! But it gets better. Fishman , already... Read Full Story

| August 24, 20 10 Scott Sipprelle is quickly turning into one of my favorite fiscal conservative voices, Save Jerseyans.  His latest districtwide TV spot produced by Jamestown Associates, "Credit Card," is hitting Central Jersey's airwaves with just two months left to go in the battle to unseat Rush Holt. Sipprelle has consistently positioned himself as a deficit hawk throughout the campaign; back in February, Scott's campaign pitched an unusually detailed blueprint to rein... Read Full Story

| August 24, 20 10 New Jersey Senate President  Steve Sweeney  (D-West Deptford) announced last week that he would  finally  resign from his position as Gloucester County Freeholder Director...  "sometime this year."   We'll believe it when we see it, Save Jerseyans. Senator Sweeney's promised to end his dual-office holding ways for some time now, and yet he's continued to serve as both a state senator and a county freeholder since 2001. Who knows why he's choosing now to call... Read Full Story

| August 24, 20 10 A fashionably late Governor Christie returned to Southwest Jersey yesterday to sign four bills honoring and aiding our state's native fighting men and women. It was a truly wonderful event to witness for the 100+ assembled guests and, mercifully, the anticipated afternoon summer rainstorm held off until the exact moment when the Governor made a b-line for his idling black suburban. The man is certainly a master of timing, Save Jerseyans. What struck me... Read Full Story

| August 24, 20 10 The plot has thickened yet again, Save Jerseyans. Hat tip to Human Events contributor Jason Mattera for posting the unbelievably utterances of would-be Ground Zero Mosque Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf . We've heard the rumors, seen the antisemitic demonstrations and even learned about the strange ambiguities regarding the property's title. Now we finally have hard evidence of the soon-to-be notorious imam's shocking anti-American sentiments. And the contents of... Read Full Story
