The circus has apparently returned to Las Vegas, where sometime today Donald Trump will be making a major announcement. As reporters began scrambling to uncover what the big announcement would involve, word leaked that The Donald would be making an endorsement in the Republican presidential primary. Initial reports were that Trump would endorse Newt Gingrich. […]
You know, when Flip-flop Frontrunner climbs out of a primary hole, sees the shadow of momentum breaking his way, and promptly sticks his foot in his mouth. First it was “I like to fire people,” then “It’s not worth getting angry about,” now “I’m not concerned about the very poor.” After winning the Florida primary, […]
How is it that Ron Paul finishes dead last in Florida, doesn’t even break double digits, and walks away with the best post-primary speech of the night – from Nevada, no less? Here’s a clue: “An irate, tireless minority does very well in caucus states,” Paul told the crowd, noting that the campaign is currently […]
Mitt Romney racked up one heck of an impressive victory in the Florida primary. The latest tally shows Mitt with 46 percent of the vote, followed at quite a distance by Newt Gingrich down at 32 percent. Bringing up the rear was Rick Santorum at 12 percent and then Ron Paul with a miniscule 7 […]
No serious person can perceive Iran as anything but an enemy. From the Iran Hostage Crisis to the Ayatollahs’ vision of a world without America, Iran habitually provokes the United States.

The estimates are for larger deficits […]
And now the latest from America’s most dysfunctional family: Teddy the K’s little get away place in Hyannistport is being donated. It seems that the modest compound was just not what Miss Vicky wanted for her post-Teddy life and so she’s gifting it to the Ted Kennedy-rips off the taxpayers-one last time Shrine. See, Teddy’s […]
What’s so troubling is that in spite of all this, Obama’s job approval rating remains near 50 percent favorable: It’s the Wizard of Oz turned inside-out. In the fabled green fantasyland (similar in that respect, I guess, to Obama’s energy policy), Dorothy & Co. were appalled when they learned the identity of the man behind […]
There were a lot of whoppers in President Obama’s campaign SOTU speech but one in particular jumped out, if for no other reason than the dizzying heights of its hypocrisy. Obama, recall, asked for legislation to ensure that people who bundle campaign contributions for Congress couldn’t lobby Congress, and vice versa, which sounds great in […]
Like most other “rich” people, I slept in this morning; rolled out from under the spun-gold sheets at the crack of noon, showered in Evian and went outside to fill up my humungous money bucket with the golden coins that fall out of the sky on people like me. No, no really – that’s where […]
