Nancy Pelosi is still very proud of her record. She refuses to take any of the blame for her party’s historic losses last week. You’ll never guess who she’s blaming. “We didn’t lose the election because of me,” Ms. Pelosi told National Public Radio in an interview that aired Friday morning. “Our members do...
It looks that way, if you listen to White House adviser David Axelrod. But then again, the boss is out of town. President Barack Obama’s top adviser suggested to The Huffington Post late Wednesday that the administration is ready to accept an across-the-board, temporary continuation of steep Bush-era tax cuts, including those for the...
Here’s a bit of good news that could help to put a dent in the national debt. Politico reported: House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said Wednesday he intends to take commercial flights home when he moves up to speaker in the new Congress. “Over the last 20 years, I have flown back and...
Heh! Democrats are having second thoughts about the Wicked Witch of the West being their next minority leader. Gee, I can’t imagine why. At least 15 Democrats have said publicly that they have lost faith in her ability to lead — a number backed up by as many as two dozen more who are...
Now’s the time to let your voices be heard, conservatives, independents, and Tea Partiers who have had it with out of control spending. Soon the Republicans will choose new leadership and we don’t have much time to weigh in. I already told you about the light bulb banning Fred Upton who wants to chair...
Randy Altschuler called in to a conference call with the American Conservative Union this afternoon to give us a status of the NY1 race.

Shepard Smith is one of Fox News’ “objective” journalists. You know, Fox News – that totally right wing, neo-con, Nazi organization that doesn’t let the left have their say. Here he is reporting on a letter sent by a group of Democrats begging Nancy Pelosi not to run as minority leader. He’s clearly upset...
The only thing surprising here is the admission. What would really be surprising is one of the MSM outlets reporting this news. Hell will freeze over before that happens. That’s why we need blogs and a free and open internet. The news comes from the New Zeal blog, where Trevor Loudon has been doing...
The NY25 Congressional race is the race that never ends. In case you missed it, yesterday we were informed that incumbent Democrat Dan Maffei’s campaign took the highly unusual step of calling and knocking on doors of absentee voters, even though those votes have yet to be counted. They say they’re doing it to...
The release of the updated paperback edition of Charles Goyette‘s The Dollar Meltdown couldn’t be more timely. I just got off the phone with Mr. Goyette.
