~Bumped Up~ Steve Kroft’s explosive 60 Minutes report on rampant ‘legal’ congressional insider trading last Sunday provoked fury and heartache at an elitist political class spiraling out of control. I cannot claim to have romantic notions about any politician, but this latest disclosure is the final nail in the coffin. For politicians to use access [...]

Amazingly, Occupy Wall Street continues to be in the news, though not quite so positively now as more violence erupts in major cities. Not to mention the sexual assaults by OWS men against OWS women coming to light despite the attempts by OWS people to cover it up. Indeed, the polls are showing people are [...]

I came across a list today of Occupy Wall Street Supporters, the 99%-ers. I won’t spoil it by giving you all of them for space reasons (and I cut out a few in the part of the list below), but oh, wow – there are some doozies on there. Don’t worry – you will definitely [...]

Well, well, well, as predicted, Solyndra was the mere tip of the iceberg of the Obama Administration’s giving away our money to companies who were failing. Only this was was for a whole lot more, $1.2 billion to be exact. The iceberg is finally being exposed: As failed solar panel manufacturer Solyndra rides through the [...]

Ever since Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) unveiled his Budget Plan, Republicans have been attacked for hating seniors, wanting to gut Medicare, and wanting old people to die. Or so you would think. Heck, I think you could say the Republicans were being just plain hateful toward seniors, especially considering the comments by DNC Chair, Rep. [...]

Update below the fold. I am sure this will be a shock to you, but fully 20% of Obamacare waivers are in Nancy Pelosi’s district. (Okay, I cannot restrain myself – how much does it look like Obama is telling Nancy, “don’t you worry, sweetie, I will always love you” or something along those lines? [...]

Of the duplicity that is Obamacare. Some time ago, August 12, 2009, to be exact, Obama-phile Greg Palast wrote about Obama meeting with Big Pharma from the get-go. He was not amused that Obama would do this, though others of us are not surprised one bit that Obamacare was a giveaway to Big Pharma. But [...]

Nancy Pelosi has come out with another whopper. Honestly, I just do not understand how this woman can be so clueless, but well, she is. She is now claiming that “there is a war on women,” discussing primarily issues related to choice. And of course, this “war” is perpetrated by the Republicans. Really, Rep. Pelosi? [...]

That would be the price of gasoline these days. I don’t know about where you live, but I do know I went away for a week, and came back with the gas prices higher than when I left. We are closing in on $3 a gallon here. The Washington Examiner had an editorial on this [...]

The new Congress will be sworn in, likely by the time you read this. There is a major shift in power in the House, from the Democrats to the Republicans. Speaker Pelosi returns to simply Congresswoman Pelosi, and Speaker-Elect John Boehner will be sworn in. But you know Nancy Pelosi did not go quietly into [...]

As you may know, Obama is on his 10-day jaunt to Asia, culminating in the G20 Summit in South Korea. His trip included a stop in Indonesia, the country in which he spent some of his childhood. There is much I could write about this trip, though I will leave that to others. But one [...]

Yes, it is according to former Californian (and still Birkenstock-wearer), Allysia Finley, in this Wall Street Journal piece, “California Is The Lindsey Lohan Of States.” This is her assessment after the recent election. I must say, she does make some good points in this article: [snip] After enjoying ephemeral highs and spending binges, you suffer [...]

This story is a tad long, but it is chock-filled with a wealth of twists, turns, personalities, politicians, and much more. I strongly recommend. Politics is clearly a contact sport. No doubt not all of the punches are above the belt. I first referenced the Obama White House use of intimidation in the case of [...]

In their article Pelosi Vents About Gibbs, Politico writers Jonathan Allen and John Bresnahan shared that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi bashed White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs Tuesday night, even as the president’s top spokesman continued to backpedal from his assertion that Democrats could lose control of the House in the November election. “How could [...]

Remember when Nancy Pelosi said Congress needed to pass healthcare so we could see what’s in it? Remember when she and her cohorts said we’d love it once we understood it better? She may yet change her tune. Robert Pear of the New York Times states… …the new health care law will affect almost every [...]
