On Monday, Democrat Rep. Bob Filner made an Alford plea -- basically he admitted the government could prove him guilty. Filner was fined $100 and has to write a letter of apology. In her complaint, [airline worker Joanne Kay] Kunkel said of Filner: “He wanted people in the back office to help him. I told […]
Over at the Huffington Post they have a brief on Vice President Dick Cheney's irregular heartbeat. Unlike just about every other story, this one never had open comments. Does anyone wonder why?
Zogby International came out with a poll today showing that Sen. Hillary Clinton would lose to Republicans Sen. John McCain, Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney. I trust Zogby polls about the same as I trust the government to be a good steward of my tax dollars, but this certainly can't help Clinton. I still think […]
I'm sorry. I was laughing too hard over this bit of stonewalling by Maryland Democratic Senators Barbara Mikulski and Benjamin Cardin. FROM 1997 to 2001, Rod J. Rosenstein worked as an assistant U.S. attorney in Greenbelt. For the past two years, he has been the top federal prosecutor in Maryland and has earned plaudits for […]
Don Surber has the complete video of Tuesday's Senate session -- all 30 seconds of it. (The pregame talk makes the total length 46 seconds.) Of course, Democrats are doing this so that President Bush can't make any recess appointments. I hope Republicans remember this sort of stunt when Democrats next hold the White House […]
There's been a lot of outrage in the blogosphere over the past few days as industrious, investigative bloggers discovered that all six of CNN's "undecided voters" weren't your average, everyday politically disinterested citizens. In a nutshell, CNN's six "undecided voters" were: A Democratic Party bigwig An antiwar activist A Union official An Islamic leader A […]
President Bush, as presidents have always done, has invited this year's American winners of Nobel Prizes to the White House to be honored. Yes, this includes Al Gore. The Gore camp said the White House went out of its way to accommodate the former vice president's schedule, even moving the event when there was a […]
One of the common refrains made by Democrats -- both those running for president and those not -- is that President George W. Bush has expanded presidential powers to extremes not seen since Atilla the Hun was running the country. The terrorist prison camp at Gitmo, "domestic" spying, tracking terrorists' finances, they're all evidence of […]
After reading this report, I just can't believe that radio talk show host and former head of the California Democratic Party said this: Liberals, such as radio host Bill Press, say it's only fair for government to rein in right-wing broadcasters who dominate the airwaves licensed by the government. "Conservatives rule talk radio," Press said. […]
Over the weekend, word came out that presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton's staffers had planted questioners in at least two of her town hall events. Dumb. Dumb. Dumb. And unnecessary. Seriously. Does anyone really believe that she's going to face a tough question at one of these tightly controlled events? This isn't a big deal […]
