You've got to love this from the free-market Tennessee Center for Policy Research. Last night, Al Gore’s global-warming documentary, An Inconvenient Truth, collected an Oscar for best documentary feature, but the Tennessee Center for Policy Research has found that Gore deserves a gold statue for hypocrisy. Gore’s mansion, located in the posh Belle Meade area […]
Just checked my freezer and there's still no $90,000 in cash in there. Disappointed, I took a $20 out of my wallet, put it in the freezer, closed the freezer door and then opened it again. I just wanted to know a little of what it felt like to be the Democrat representative from Louisiana, […]
Mark Tapscott over at the Washington Examiner did a bit of fact-checking on Harry Reid -- something that most of the media has failed to do since the Democrats took control of Congress in January. Feigning pained amazement as only supercillious Washington politicians can, Reid told the assembled journalists a couple of days ago that […]
If anything disqualifies John "The Hair" Edwards from the presidency of the local Kiwanis club -- let alone the United States -- it's his decision this week to keep on bloggers Amanda Marcotte and Melissa McEwan. Everyone political watcher initially thought that the initial selection of Marcotte and McEwan to run Edwards' blog was evidence […]
Former Democrat vice presidential hopeful John "the hair" Edwards had a bad week -- and it's not clear he realizes it.

David Petraeus for a fourth star and at the same time tout a […]

David Petraeus by a vote of 81-0 for his fourth star. The same Gen. Petraeus who during his Senate confirmation […]
From the just-making-things-up department comes this from presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton's first Webcast: I'm really impressed with what California has done over 30 years. Because they have imposed conservation and energy efficiency standards, they have kept flat their energy use, and the rest of the country has just, unfortunately, continued to use more and more […]
Buried in the latest Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll is a question that reveals that the leftists who used to blame America first, now hate America first. 19. Do you personally want the Iraq plan President Bush announced last week to succeed? Yes No (Dont know) 16-17 Jan 07 63% 22 15 Democrats 51% 34 15 […]
The man who replaced California Democrat Rep. Jane Harmon as the head of the House Select Committee on Intelligence doesn't appear to be one of the more thoughtful, responsible or stalwart political figures of our time. From the Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) via National Review: From the office of Congressman Joe Wilson (R, SC): In […]
