Or at least that was the impression this headline from The Hill wanted us to believe, “Signs Of Turning Tide On Economy Lift Democrats, Obama’s Hopes.” Oh, Happy Day! Woohoo! The tide has turned, the economy is recovering, people are going back to work, Obama has parted the waters and slowed their rising, oh Hallelujah… [...]

I freely admit, I did not see this one coming. My friend and fellow NQ writer, Linda Anselmi, shared the following article with me, most appropos for bringing to an end Women’s History Month. And that would be this Bloomberg article, Saudi Women Inspired by Fall of Mubarak Step Up Equality Demand. Wow, right? Honestly, [...]

This is a disturbing issue, one I have addressed before, but sadly, one that continues to rear its ugly head. It is hard to believe this is happening here, but it is (h/t to Harp for mentioning this series). Let me warn you, this is not for the faint of heart, to put it mildly. [...]

It is amazing what comes out from under the rug once it has been pulled back. Recently, DOJ attorney, J. Christian Adams exposed the DOJ’s dismissal of blatant voter intimidation by the New Black Panther Party. It has been a staggering expose of what is going on inside the Justice Department, especially in terms of [...]

/ Bumped up . the good* reverend’s story got posted during the time we had trouble with comments appearing, so we’ve bumped her story up to ensure that you all get to comment (*she’s usually good but often naughty too)/ It is hard to believe that this oil spill in the Gulf is still continuing, [...]

Just when you think our Elected Officials cannot possibly be any stupider, there is this article, Pelosi: It’s Cheaper to Treat Teens for Drug Use Than Interdict Drugs at Border. Sigh. Okay, here’s the thing. I love San Francisco. It is a beautiful city. But seriously, how can they keep electing this woman?? Read it [...]

Well, the protests against Arizona and any immigration reform have come and gone from the weekend. Despite the sheer volume of the cries, the number of people were not what was expected. LA had about half the numbers they expected, and Chicago only had about 8,000. I’m sure you’ll appreciate this: Upset — and scared, [...]

This past week brought some major news out of Houston, Houston Is Largest City to Elect Openly Gay Mayor. Way to go Lone Star State! The win is impressive, as is the new mayor, Annise Parker. Ms. Parker graduated from a high school in Charleston, SC. Her mom still lives here, though they do not [...]

You know, it being GLBT Pride Month and all, as Obama the Backstabber declared the other day – copying Hillary Clinton, ONCE AGAIN, after she acknowledged the 40th Anniversary of Stonewall (“Cheney Two, Obama Nothing, Clinton – a Thousand,” and “In Recognition of LGBT Pride Month“), the posts keep writing themselves. We already have gaping [...]

(Bumped up from last week.) I saw the following story this morning on the news, and was pretty surprised by it: One-Fourth of Overseas Votes Go Uncounted, Study Finds. Some of you may recall that John McCain asked for an extension to count votes in VA for absentee ballots requested by military personnel that were [...]

On Tax Day, Texas Governor Rick Perry shrewdly made a play to take over the shoddily managed GOP noise at the Obama administration’s spend and tax policies. This is a middle-aged man’s vigorous performance on a baseball diamond, and the more so because everything about it looks scripted, rehearsed, manufactured, overexposed.

Why the hell most of us pay our taxes. Because it seems to me that it is just the regular folks out there who are bothering to do that. Believe it or not, I am not even talking about Tax Fraud Director of the IRS, Tim Geithner, either. Are you ready for this? According to [...]

(bumped up by NoQuarter) Barack Obama has a coal problem. Responding to yesterday’s revelation that Barack Obama intends to bankrupt all plants that operate on energy generated from coal, Chris Hamilton, the Senior Vice President of the West Virginia Coal Association, called Obama’s comments in San Francisco “unbelievable.” I quote the West Virginia Record: The [...]

During the past several weeks, you’ve all seen John Fund on Fox News discussing the problem of voter fraud perpetrated by Acorn. As you probably also know, Mr. Fund has written a book, “Stealing Elections, Revised and Updated: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy.” In 20 minutes following publication of this story — at 3:00 [...]

We need swift action – We need to get this video out to the people of coal based states.

Those who don’t live this stuff 24/7. [...]
