We now know that the White House alleges they sent President Clinton to talk to Rep. Joe Sestak about dropping out of the race against Arlen Specter. The White House version is that they were offering him an unpaid job on an Advisory Board, one for which he would have been ineligible. Who is actually [...]

You may recall that during the 2008 Election, three New Black Panthers were arrested for voter intimidation in Philadelphia. Below is a recap of the situation at the time:

That’s what is going on with our current elected officials. More and more incumbents are at the end of their terms, either through retirement (i.e., reading the writing on the wall), or through primary races going on now. The latest to lose his seat is West Virginia representative Alan Mollohan, who has served for 28 [...]

Recently, I reported that Senators Lieberman and Collins subpoenaed the White House to have access to all of the information available on the Fort Hood Shooting, and Major Hasan. Well, the White House, Pentagon, and Justice Department have all said, “No.” Ah, such transparency: “We have repeatedly sought your departments’ cooperation,” they wrote. “Our efforts [...]

At this point, many of us have seen how our Congress “crafts” bills, and the machinations through which they go to accomplish them. The following article, Inside the Pelosi Sausage Factory; Michigan Rep. Bart Stupak sold his anti-abortion soul for a toothless executive order, does a great job of exploring the ins and outs of [...]

Wow, that Charles Krauthammer really knows how to turn a phrase. As does French President, Nicholas Sarkozy. Oh, yeah. Check out this article, Obama’s French Lesson: “President Obama, I support the Americans’ outstretched hand. But what did the international community gain from these offers of dialogue? Nothing.” – French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Sept. 24 When [...]

Here is his heartfelt declaration–worth a watch! Last May, my cartoon (reposted below) was about “David” (Joe Sestak) thinking of running against “Goliath” (Arlen Specter) for United States Senator from Pennsylvania. When long-time Republican Specter dumped the GOP because polls showed that he would not win a 6th term in 2010, he decided to run [...]

In the 2010 Senate primaries, should the dashing retired Navy Admiral who currently represents Pennsylvania’s 7th district as a Democrat in Congress take on the grisly, high-profile, five-term Republican Senator who only recently dumped the GOP to declare himself a Democrat? Either man would likely prevail over the right-wing conservative Republican contender.

(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 [...]

Toss in the point at which Coleman stops making a fool of himself, and the Magic Number in the Senate is 60. Gee, the Republican party sure made a smart move alienating Specter, hey? One could almost imagine that they were working for the Democratic Party. Hanging on like a dog with a rag in [...]

When Gov. Rendell made his obnoxious comment about Gov. Janet Napolitano. You may remember it from this Campbell Brown video: Well, despite his protestations to the contrary, when Gov. Rendell decided to endorse CHRIS MATTHEWS in his run for the 2010 US Senate run in PA, he pretty much sealed his own place in the [...]

Speaking for me only… Oh, yes, Campbell Brown calls Gov. Rendell to task for his sexist comments about Gov. Napolitano. No doubt about it, what he said was sexist. Honestly, and sadly, it was one of the milder examples we have seen this year. Here is Campbell Brown, and Gov. Rendell:

(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 [...]

First, I want to address those supposed internal poll numbers that have McCain ahead in PA, MI, NJ and closing in on CA. I have not been able to verify those numbers. They could be true, they might not be. I said back during the primaries that a Pampers nomination would put PA, MI, and [...]
