The anti ‘big government’, anti ‘party of big government’ tsunami is still rising as we come ashore to this fall’s elections. This year we saw a huge lead disappear in WV’s open senate seat. We saw long time Democrat incumbents in CA, WI, WA and NV all slip into trouble – all now fighting for […]

As I noted in the comments on another post, the spectacle unfolding in the DE GOP senate primary has become a joke. It seems the Tea Party and Governor Palin are being brought back to Earth in DE. The movement and governor have produced surprising and needed upheaval in the GOP. They did it by […]

This has to be one of the most innovative ways to go out of business to come along in a long time: The features of this torture device: The new “saddle” seat, to be unveiled at a conference this week, increases the number of seats an airline can have in its economy class. The design, named […]

Public Policy Polling is out with a poll showing a nail-biter in the GOP primary in DE for VP Biden’s Senate seat. PPP has Christine O’Donnell – easily the worst candidate the Tea Party has promoted this year (outside a string of really good candidates) – leading Mike Castle 47-44%. This is within the margin […]

Summary: This is a long post, but the bottom line is worth the time to read it. Under oath, in front of the House of Commons Committee on Science and Technology, Lord Oxburgh testified that it is impossible to reconstruct an accurate global temperature record over the past 1,000 years. Especially one that could claim […]

I was not sure what to say this year on this 9th anniversary of 9-11. The nation is in a rut and heading down a bleak path. The political front is anything but serene or positive. And we have Americans who want to recognize this national day of memorial with book burnings, to show they […]

I am not really sure what ‘hinky’ means, but I do know this week’s first time unemployment claims are not something to put a lot of hope into. It seems much of the data was estimated by bureaucrats. Next week’s numbers will be more solid, but will also cover a short week due to labor […]

Updates Below! While Gallup’s generic ballot poll bounced ten points in favor of the Dems over the labor day weekend (note the connection between a long weekend and one strange poll result) a slew of other polls came out that showed an enormous lead for the GOP in this fall’s elections. As I predicted on […]

It has been a long time since President Obama promised in 2009 that: … this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the […]

Those yahoos in that FL church who plan to reenact one of the worst aspects of Nazi politically-correct policing (book burning) are demonstrating why just because an act may be legal, it still not ought to be done. Burning the Quran is not going to enrage the militants to new levels of hate. They already […]
