Now that Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham is at Club Fed serving his time for corruption, the House of Representatives has two more wackos whose constituents should be ashamed for having elected them. First there was Baghdad Jim McDermott of Seattle who lost an appeals court case because he had illegally distributed an illegal tape-recording of […]
Nobody like Nazis, especially Illinois Nazis. So, you may ask, what's worse than Nazis? Christians. Last weekend a bunch of Christian youth rallied in San Francisco against popular culture. More than 25,000 evangelical Christian youth landed Friday in San Francisco for a two-day rally at AT&T Park against "the virtue terrorism" of popular culture, and […]
Sen. Russ Feingold's censure resolution for President Bush isn't getting much support from other people who actually have to win elections. Of course, it's a hit at the moonbat-left blogosphere, but stupid, futile gestures are the norm there. As Texas Sen. John Cornyn notes, Feingold's play for attention distracts from the serious issues: Democrat co-sponsors […]
Wisconsin Sen. Russ Feingold has been mentioned as a possible Democrat contender for the presidency in 2008 -- if only for the fact that just about every senator looks in the mirror each morning and sees a future president. If that's the case, Feingold must've been attempting to woo the Bush Derangement Syndrome-suffering base of […]
The Campaign to Defend the Constitution (except that whole freedom of religion thing) -- a liberal "grassroots" group is taking out ads linking Dr. James Dobson of Focus on the Family, Ralph Reed and Traditioanl Values Coalition Chairman Rev. Lou Sheldon to convicted felon Jack Abramoff. "We're trying to get the message out that things […]
My main criteria for convicted Congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham's successor is twofold: I want him/her to keep their trousers buckled and keep their hands in their own pockets. I've been getting a plethora of campaign mailers over the past month and hae been mostly disinterested in them. Many candidates are running either on their biography […]
The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments today on the Tom DeLay-orchestrated Texas redistricting plan that gave Republicans a majority of congressional seats in that state for the first time in decades. Democrats and their liberal allies are, predictably, crying foul because the new plan effectively ensured Republican control of the House for the […]
Well, it looks like the Progress for America Voter Fund has gotten the Minnesota Democratic Party in full outrage mode. The conservative advocacy group is running a series of support-the-troops/support-the-Iraq-war spots that have the Dems questioning their own patriotism. The Minneapolis Star Tribune has more tonight. They report on KSTP television's refusal to run the […]
I usually agree with George Will, but today's column isn't one of them. Will argues that the NSA surveillance program is "monarchical." The next time a president asks Congress to pass something akin to what Congress passed on Sept. 14, 2001 -- the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) -- the resulting legislation might […]
San Francisco Supervisor Gerardo Sandoval, a Democrat, was on Fox News' "Hannity & Colmes" last night to talk about his opposition to having the USS Iowa turned into a museum on the San Francisco bayfront. Of course, it didn't take long for Sandoval to show how completely insane he is -- he wants the U.S. […]
