5 Bills, 20 Years

Woo hoo. Kerry got 5 Bills passed, and 4 Resolutions, in 20 years. No wonder he doesn’t like to talk about his Senate years (Sean at Everything I Know is Wrong). Though, I do respect this one: A Bill To Authorize Appropriations For The Marine Mammal Protection Act Of 1972 And To Improve The Program […]

Brave Soldiers

Isn’t it funny how stories like this rarely make it to the MSM? FORT BRAGG, N.C. (AP) — George Perez lost his leg to a roadside bomb in Iraq more than a year ago, but despite the phantom pains that haunt him, he says he is determined to prove to the Army that he is […]

Kerry leads in the Pre Debate polls (hat tip to Little Miss Attila)

Canadian Drugs Good?

Nope. Even the Liberal New York Times says that Canadian drugs are not the answer. It may make political sense to point to Canada as a solution to high prescription drug prices in the United States.

William Teach?

Someone sent me an email, wondering why I was using the name “William Teach.” She got the reference to Blackbeard the Pirate, but, as she informed me, his name was Edward Teach.

But President Bush also made one of the most egregiously revealing verbal errors of the three debates when he spoke in the second one, again referring to the draft, about “talk on the Internets” that a draft was […]

Bloviator extraordinaire John Kerry (he’s a Senator, ya know), has been working overtime to lose allies. If he is elected, will there be any left? From Japan (courtesy Captain Ed): The comments come a day after Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi made remarks that appeared to suggest he would prefer to see Bush win the Nov. […]

Talking with Liberals

Fellow Carolinian (the good Carolina :)) Ogre has a nice post on talking with Liberals. Check it out here. As time moves forward, the Republicans and Democrats are moving in radically different directions in many areas. I’m not talking about elected moderates, but of the party faithful. Republicans are getting more conservative, and Democrats are […]

Still Love This Quote

I want to remind people listening tonight that a plan is not a litany of complaints, and a plan is not to lay out programs that you can’t pay for.

I have to root for he Skins?

God help me, I have to root for the Redskins to beat the Packers on Halloween: Claim: The outcome of Washington Redskins football games has correctly predicted the winner of every U.S. presidential election since 1936. Status: True. Example: [Collected on the Internet, 2004] FOOTBALL + ELECTION Did you know….?? The Washington Redskins have proved […]
