After hearing two weeks of testimony in Chelan County Superior Court in Washington state detailing falsified election reports, evidence of votes by more than one thousand felons, dozens of people voting twice and several dead people, Judge John Bridges ruled this morning that none of that is convincing enough to throw into doubt Christine Gregoire's […]
OK, so maybe that's not the nicest description for our opponents on the other side of the aisle, but a recent back-and-forth between former Clinton attack-man Sidney Blumenthal and the Powerline guys has me thinking that at least some Democrats' minds must be twisted by some illicit drug. The debate began here when Powerline took […]
I must confess that I don't watch Pat Robertson's "The 700 Club." Neither do I listen to Air America radio. Having made those two confessions, I find Sen. Tom Harkin's comments [last item] just as offensive and outrageous as anything Robertson or Falwell have ever said. On the same program, Harkin said Christian broadcasters are […]
In response to DNC chairman Howard Dean's claim last week that Republicans had "never made an honest living in their lives," former Democrat vice presidential candidate John Edwards had the following to say: The chairman of the DNC is not the spokesman for the party. He's a voice. I don't agree with it. If the […]
Shortly after last year's election loss, Democrats began taking solace in a bogus study that purported to show that states that voted for John Kerry had substantially higher average IQs than states that voted for George W. Bush. Yesterday, results came out on a different type of test -- a driving test -- and it […]
One of the less persuasive, but most accurate Democrat complaints on the issue of judges has been that Repubicans have the House, Senate and presidency -- now they want the "independent judiciary too." On its face, this argument seems to somehow suggest that anytime the president and Senate do their constitutional duties in staffing the […]
Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin made the following statement on "Fox News Sunday": First, let me say there are only four that are truly contested. Four judicial nominees who have been rejected by the Senate at this point and have been resubmitted by the President. That's never been done before. False. Untrue. First, let's outline what […]
In a debate on the Senate floor yesterday over judges and filibusters, the "dean" (read: "old fogey") of the Senate, Robert C. Byrd of West Virginia lectured majority leader Sen. Bill Frist on his legacy. His position drew a pointed caution from Senator Robert C. Byrd, Democrat of West Virginia, a former majority leader and […]
In the continuing debate over whether or not John Kerry honestly won Wisconsin by some 11,000 votes George W. Bush won Ohio by more than 100,000 votes, Rep. John Conyers attempts to invoke the wisdom of Monty Python and gets it wrong. The exit poll discrepancies are to the evidence that massive disenfranchisement occurred in […]
Byron York has apparently silenced the new leader of the tin-foil hat brigade, sportscaster Jim Lampley with this fact-filled repudation of the Ohio conspiracy theory. I particularly liked this little tidbit from the Ohio "lawsuits." Another one of the witnesses was the author of the now-withdrawn lawsuits challenging the Ohio results. Lacking evidence that anyone […]
