In all likelihood, in the coming weeks the Justice Department will announce that they are suing to overturn Arizona’s illegal immigration law. One of the arguments that the department will almost certainly put forward is that Arizona’s law usurps federal authority with regard to immigration law. Hold that thought in your head for a moment.

It wasn’t unexpected today when President Obama relieved Gen. Stanley McChrystal of command of the Afghanistan war effort. The president had every right to do it, and few will fault him for making the decision he did. At the same time, Obama “demoted” Gen. David Petraeus from his perch as head of U.S. Central Command […]
You can find the Rolling Stone article everyone’s talking about here. In the article we learn a lot of things we already know: Vice President Joe Biden is an idiot.

He got that ammunition when Allen referred to him as a […]
Sen. Barbara “dumb as a bag of hammers” Boxer: Someone get that list of names and fire them too. For the record: Hoystory endorses Carly Fiorina for Senate.
