John Edwards is epitome of the liberal nanny state. The guy is a professional nosey-body nag. His latest policy idea shows this better than anything else do date: Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards said on Sunday that his universal health care proposal would require that Americans go to the doctor for preventive care. “It requires […]

I am sure many have forgotten about Able Danger (see here for my many posts on the mater), a prototype data mining intelligence program that was begun in 1998 by the NSA and folks in the Pentagon to see if data mining technology, applied to publically available data sets, could help identify terrorists. The claim, […]

I hate to see the ‘ol War Horse, John Warner, leave our Commenwealth’s political leadership. But his equivication made it impossible for him to garner support, so stepping down was a smart thing to do. There are lots of good candidates, especially Jim Gilmore who was a great Governor and recent Presidential candidate. If VA […]

In a brief statement, he called his 13 years in public service a “remarkable journey,” but he gave no explanation about why he chose to resign now […]

What is shows is increasing support for Bush and Congress continues to free-fall as they demonstrate their impotence and lack of […]

You can tell something serious is happening when a story blossoms and then goes absolutely silent. Only when it is a serious matter does the Federal Government go pitch dark on a subject. The latest was the search of DoJ Lawyer Thomas Tamm’s house in regards to the NSA leak investigation. This is not the […]

The political observers are scratching their heads at the Iowa Straw Poll results, but the fact is the GOP stalwarts are way out of sync with the broader GOP base. Just look at the winners of this inside-GOP contest and the national polls – worlds apart. The GOP Congress and the conservative media darlings screwed […]

Some fools on the right think it would be wise in 2008 to back the lunacy of Ron Paul as a sign of where the GOP stands – seriously: All of the current crop of power-seekers spurning the Ron Paul campaign in hopes of power, jobs, and largesse in a Giuliani, Romney, Clinton, or Obama […]
