Scott Brown became the first Republican Senator of the Communist Commonwealth of Massachusetts since Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. (in that seat) and Edward Brooke (overall). It ends almost 55 years of a “Kennedy” being in the Senate, and almost twenty years of a solid democrat ticket of both Senate seats. The man hasn’t even taken the oath of office yet, and people are already talking about having him run for President. Read Full Story

Last week’s numbers on unemployment was a bad news and really bad news situation. The bad news was, the unemployment report demonstrated that the economy lost 75,000 more lost jobs than economists anticipated. The really bad news is, the only thing that kept unemployment from rising overall was almost 670,000 workers “left the labor force” and therefore were not included in unemployment calculations.

Apparently President Clinton is no more sensitive on race where it comes to President Obama than Senator Reid…. this is shocking considering his “blackus emeritus” title as the “First Black President.” Read Full Story

Wow. I mean, what can we all say about Harry Reid’s latest gaffe. He has to be the dumbest person in Washington, D.C. – and that’s saying something given the competition for that top spot. Let’s review shall we… Reid was among those who tarred and feathered Trent Lott for his asinine statements about what a great guy Strom Thurmond was… then later talked about what a great friend he was… when Lott resigned as Minority Leader. In response to Chip Saltsman forwarding around... Read Full Story

Ben Feller had an interesting piece on the wires today. It is worth a read. I doubt very much that the President Obama will stop blaming former President Bush any time soon. I’m sure if Obama felt he could get away with it, every job report, every terrorist attack, and every hiccup on the way to the socialist nirvana the President seems hell bent on imposing upon the American people, would be blamed on Bush. On thing that Feller glosses over in his article, however, is that much of the... Read Full Story

So, the bottom line is now everyone in Washington wants the full body scanners everywhere so that another NW 253 event can’t happen. The funny thing is that this particular decision causes a conflict – our fat-food fat-body nation conflicts with our desire for security. The idea of being quickly scanned down to the skin… and having a rather revealing picture available to some TSA worker…. makes most people freakout. Not because they’re worried about carrying weapons…. but because they feel... Read Full Story

Apparently the issues of Health Care, and terrorists, and cap and trade are irrelevant. Apparently we’re all going to be killed when a star that’s a katrillion miles away explodes and the resulting shock wave of deadly radiation strips the entire planet of its ozone layer (yes, the very gases that we allegedly produce too much of that causes global warming)…. and we all hit fifteen million degrees kelvin…. bursting into flames on the spot. Instant global warming… even Al Gore will be right... Read Full Story

Michael Steele is out hawking a new book published by Regnery. How the man has the time to publish a book in the middle of the worst time for the RNC since the founding of the Republican Party is beyond me. But apparently he has the will, and the willing interns, to go off and research, write, edit, and publish a book. As a result of the book, Steele has been making the rounds on TV. While on TV, Mr. Steele said he thought that the Republicans could not take back the House in 2010. Read Full Story

When candidate Obama was running for President, he criticized the Bush Administration for making law in secret. This was a legitimate argument in some respects as undeniably some of the policymaking done by the Administration was secretive. However, not to worry, upon becoming President, Mr. Obama aired all of the prior Administration’s laundry in short order… executive order in fact… the very first one. The executive order basically said, anything I find in the Bush Administration that I... Read Full Story

And so it begins… the unraveling of the party. Let’s recap shall we… in the wake of 11 Democrat house members who have announced they won’t seek re-election…. Senators begin to go “boom”: We add Byron Dorgan – North Dakota. Chris Dodd of Connecticut. This I’m actually sorry to see… I really was kind of hoping Chris Dodd’s next place of address was jail. By not seeking re-election, Republicans (when they win back the majorities) will have little reason to pursue Dodd and his baloney... Read Full Story
