That's the word on the street if you're dealing with Hillary Clinton's campaign. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s cash-strapped presidential campaign has been putting off paying hundreds of bills for months — freeing up cash for critical media buys but also earning the campaign a reputation as something of a deadbeat in some small-business circles. A pair […]
I've attended decades of Bible studies and Sunday sermons at a variety of churches -- mostly evangelical, but also some "mainline" protestant churches. I've even attended some Catholic masses and once went to Friday prayers at a hole-in-the-wall mosque. Yet, it wasn't until the controversy erupted over Sen. Barack Obama's pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, […]
From Sen. Barack Obama's announcement for president, Feb. 10, 2007: Most of all, let's be the generation that never forgets what happened on that September day and confront the terrorists with everything we've got. Politics doesn't have to divide us on this anymore - we can work together to keep our country safe. I've worked […]
Sen. John McCain has released a commercial that's reportedly airing only in New Mexico. Of course, it's on the Web too. The ad is largely biographical. It's positive. It doesn't reference the Democrats nor is there anything in it directed at the Democratic Party. That didn't stop Howard "Foot-in-mouth" Dean from deciding to open his […]
One of the most prominent cultural shifts that has occurred in the past 50 years has been the increase in job mobility and the decrease in company-sponsored retirement programs. More people today move from job to job every few years. The era of getting a manufacturing job straight out of high school, working at it […]
I often criticize The New York Times editorial page for being partisan, not principled. But MSNBC anchorman Keith Olbermann is giving them a run for their money. As you can see from this video courtesy of OlbermannWatch.com, Olbermann is not merely a partisan Democrat, but he's even made his decision on which Democrat he is […]
Barack Obama had the following to say last month at a Wisconsin Democratic Party Founders Day gala: Obama would criticize McCain in a far less attractive manner, saying, "I am looking forward to a debate with John McCain. John McCain is a good man. He's an American hero. We honor his service to this nation. […]
It should come as little surprise when you consider how completely Saddam Hussein was able to corrupt the United Nations and its oil-for-palaces program that he was also able to corrupt three liberal Democrats. Saddam Hussein's intelligence agency footed the bill for a U.S. congressional delegation's trip during a buildup to the Iraq war, according […]
Exhibit A for the proposition that Sen. Barack Obama can speak and the mere rhythm and pitch of his voice can cause normally intelligent people's brains to fall out was the mainstream media reaction to his "race speech" last week. Obama spoke eloquently on the issue of race and used his skills as a Jedi […]
James Carville should be ashamed of himself. The reaction of some of Mr. Clinton’s allies suggests that might have been a wise decision. “An act of betrayal,” said James Carville, an adviser to Mrs. Clinton and a friend of Mr. Clinton. “Mr. Richardson’s endorsement came right around the anniversary of the day when Judas sold […]
