Clunkers Rescues Food Safety Bill

In a twisted case of legislative resuscitation, Senate Republicans have somehow managed to help breathe new life into the monstrosity that is the so-called Food Safety Bill, which late Sunday night was approved by unanimous consent in chamber with a voice vote. The food safety bill, recall, was left for dead earlier this month after […]

Carolina Concerto Grosso

Or maybe just gross would be more appropriate. As if watching the Panthers hasn’t been painful enough this year, the stage is set for potentially true horrendousness. Imagine Jimmy Clausen on a tuck-and-bail, synched to the harmonics of “Achy, Breaky Heart.” It could be coming to a TV near you, courtesy of Fox Sports. This […]

A Tea Party Anniversary To Remember

I mean really, how totally and perfectly appropriate that on the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, tax-and-spender Majority Leader Harry Reid was forced late Thursday night to kill his pork-laden, $1.2 trillion omnibus spending bill on the floor of the Senate. An added bonus: along with nearly $8 billion worth of earmarks tucked into […]

Omnibust Porker Bill

Forget Stephen King; if you really want a chillingly horrific read check out the $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill brewed up and released by Democrats this week, all 1,924 pages of it. Or better yet, let somebody else do the heavy reading for you. This from CNSNews: Senate Republicans gave notice Tuesday evening of their […]

Deficit Dove

How’s this for a twist: Food police cheerleader and alleged Republican Sen. Richard Burr votes for a so-called compromise tax deal, which will pile $858 billion onto the national debt, while Sen. Kay Hagan, a Democrat, votes against it. This from the Raleigh N&O: “It is time for Congress to tighten its belt, like American […]

Ronald Reagan Was A RINO

According to the current definition by some people, that is. It’s amusing when we read that some wag has tagged a politician with a shorthand slap such as ‘RINO’ (Republican-in-Name-Only) and then slaps himself on the back for being so clever and funny. Many times, the facts just don’t support the accusations. RINOs are Republicans […]

A federal judge in Virginia delivered a blow today to the Obama Administration’s new healthcare law, ruling that one of its major components – a requirement for people to purchase healthcare – is unconstitutional.

Lunch Break

Let us pretend. If you were told that you could save $15 per week by lying and there was no possibility of getting caught, would you lie? Would you do it for $30 or even $45 per week? No, forget about the tort lawyers, they lie for big bucks; this is about the common man. […]

Obama Under Fire

And not just from Dems outraged over the president’s so-called compromise on a tax deal. No, the real feat apparently has been The One’s superhuman powers to resist the temptation of lighting up. This from CBS News: White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs acknowledged President Obama’s smoking habit Thursday — but said the president has […]

More From The Religion Of Peace

More bombings, violence and mayhem, that is; according to radical Islamoterrorist Anjem Choudary. This from MSNBC, where Choudary is at one point described as “mild-mannered”: LONDON — It is a Sunday night in London’s East End and the self-styled “most hated man in Britain” is holding court, reveling in his vision of a Taliban victory over […]
