As I posted yesterday, Pelosi is in serious trouble over what she knew and when regarding water boarding of al Qaeda members and their turning evidence that stopped attacks. Now it is being leaked that her staff (who would be briefed in her absence as her representation) did keep her informed: A source close to […]

Update: Oh pulleeaze! The liberal Democrats who wanted a witch hunt into the CIA and its interrogation efforts to save this country from attack should have known they were treading on thin ice AND would pay a huge price for being wrong if America sided with the CIA and President Bush. Now the Dems are […]

Update: It’s even worse than the bottom line numbers indicate. Apparently, even with such small amounts going to actual projects and being spent, the Department of Transportation can’t keep track of the money: Counties suffering the most from job losses stand to receive the least help from President Barack Obama’s plan to spend billions of […]

Nancy Pelosi is not stupid. She is the Speaker of the House of Representatives, fourth in line to lead this nation. But lately, she either wants America to think she is a few shades away from the Hollywood classical dumb blonde, or she thinks Americans are too slow to figure out she knew and condoned […]

Lots of news out today about Congress starting the chafe under the liberal spending policies of Obama and the liberal congressional leaders.

Update: Lord Save Us! Despite the enormous size of the $787 billion stimulus plan, some economists worry that it won’t make a big enough dent in unemployment and that lawmakers will have to work on another stimulus in short order — something members of Congress are loathe to discuss.

All you need to know about how badly the purity wars crippled the GOP is to look at this graph: The chart shows how the far right was able to run off those nasty moderate RINOs and push them into the Democrat camp. That includes some serious conservatives like the Anchoress, and keeps conservative independents […]

It’s the old proverb again – watch what you ask for, you just might get it. The Dems will now attempt to lead a nation that is fed up with politics as usual, and the political extremes who always seem to battle to a stale mate so that nothing gets done. It has caused a […]

First we have Nancy Pelosi giving a highly partisan pre-vote speech to enrage the GOP and try and get them to move to the exits – which, actually they didn’t, their numbers did not move that much at all. It was either the dumbest move on the planet to obtain bipartisan support – or a […]
