(Bumped up from earlier today.)
Florida Democratic Congressman Alan Grayson, the man who stood on the floor of the House and said ‘Republicans want you to die’ just got himself into a little tepid water for making saying that:
Linda Robertson, an adviser to Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, [is] “a K Street whore.”

Tonight kicks off the World Series. The Phillies meet the Yankees at Yankee Stadium, with the game starting at 7:57 (why do they pick such weird times?). The game will be broadcast on Fox (sadly - that means having to listen to Tim McCarver and Joe Buck go on and on. No [...]

Well, Obama is pandering to the GLBT community again. He gave a speech to the Human RIghts Campaign Friday, October 9th. Personally, I think he was trying to ward off the big-ass march planned against him in DC byt the GLBT community. It didn’t work, I might add. Seems some folks [...]

That is basically the excuse Rep. Maxine Waters (of ACORN-loving fame) uses for why Rep. Rangel is not going to have any comeuppance for his tax fraud in this article, “Rep. Waters: ‘Many Members’ Suffer From Disclosure Problems Like Rep. Rangel.” Holy smokes.
BONUS look back at Rep. Charlie Rangel. Remember when [...]

Wednesday, October 7, 2009, marks the 8th Anniversary of the US War in Afghanistan. And, at this point, President Obama is trying to decide how he wants to go forward in Afghanistan:
On the eighth anniversary of the beginning of the war in Afghanistan, President Barack Obama is gathering his national security team for another [...]

Wolf Blitzer got spanked by Andy Richter in Celebrity Jeopardy. And he looks as miserable as his performance.
H/T Hot Air
According to Wikipedia, “The incident created a stir when, after airing, CNN President Jonathan Klein suggested that Andy Richter might be a better choice to host The Situation Room than Blitzer.”
Perhaps those in glass houses [...]

All this talk about Obama speaking to the *shoochildren* got me thinking about the school system. Can’t one look at the education system when pondering what a government run health care program would look like?
Like health care, the US spends more than any other country on education (except Switzerland). And like health care, we are [...]

For those of you who thought Governor Sarah Palin would go quietly into that good night, think again. Her Op-Ed in today’s Washington Post strikes directly at the heart of President Obama’s cap and trade plans. She misses no opportunity to point out that his recovery plans are not exactly helping those in [...]

CNN’s John King interviewed General Colin Powell Sunday as Powell airs doubts on Obama agenda. Here are some interesting remarks as covered by Jon Ward of The Washington Times:
Colin Powell, one of President Obama’s most prominent Republican supporters, expressed concern Friday that the president’s ambitious blitz of costly initiatives may be enlarging the [...]

I read two great posts from NRO, Barack Obama Is a Big Fat Liar by Jim Geraghty, and ‘Barack Obama is a Big Fat Liar,’ Illustrated, by Guy Benson.
Geraghty writes:
Ever since Barack Obama declared his candidacy for president, it’s been easy — and great fun — to spotlight when his promises and statements come with [...]

Todd Purdum from Vanity Fair just wrote an article about Sarah Palin, and I can’t decide if he wants to take her down, or get down with her.
“Sarah Palin is still the sexiest brand in Republican politics….she is by far the best-looking woman ever…the first indisputably fertile female to dare to dance with the [...]

I do think it a good thing to reduce pollutants in the air – and whether you believe in manmade climate change or not, I imagine you would agree. I also think the US needs to stop spending $200,000 per minute on foreign oil, and would love to see alternative methods developed and utilized.
The question [...]

Some of you may have heard that Senator John Kerry tried to make a joke about Governor Palin recently in light of Gov. Sanford’s, um, “adventure”. Like his previous comedic attempts, it was NOT funny. Seriously - he should leave comedy to the professionals (and Letterman doesn’t count). Anyway, The Sleuth from [...]

I have been following the coverage of Iran this past week, listening to both sides, those who think Obama is setting the right tone by staying out of it, and those who think he is not being strong enough - basically voting present. Now, I assume that Obama is listening to many experts, people who [...]

(bumped up in light of Olive Garden no longer running ads on CBS “Late Show” with late night comic David Letterman.)
But all women, in my humble opinion. That is what David Letterman did with his sexist comments regarding Governor Palin and her daughter (and it doesn’t matter if he meant the OLDER one - [...]

David Letterman is still feeling the heat for his jokes attacking the Palin daughters, and finally decided to do the right thing, and apologize. And no, he didn’t apologize last week. He made excuses and covered his buttocks.
There is a web site called firedavidletterman.com that is organizing a rally to be held outside of his [...]
