NJ Gov. Christie Announces Lots Of Gun/People Control

Hey, remember when some Conservatives were really hot to trot with Chris Christie, and really wanted him to run for President, or at least be on the ticket as VP? And some said “hey, um, he may have some good qualities for Conservatives, but, really, he’s about as squishy a Republican as it gets?” Yeah, […]

Marco Rubio Steps As Squishy Republican Spokesperson For Shamnesty

The more we learn about the Gang Of 8 immigration bill, the more we find out just how flawed it is. Liberals seem to love it, which should be the first clue that when all is said and done, it will simply be an amnesty bill. Shame. They could have done something that made sense, […]

What Say To Spending $50 Million To Help Illegals Obtain Amnesty?

Something interesting in the newest shamnesty bill (Daily Caller) The Senate’s Gang of Eight immigration bill offers $50 million in taxpayer-funded assistance to help illegal immigrants file for the multi-stage amnesty offered by the controversial bill. The proposed spending is intended to help illegals get “registered provisional immigration status,” which is the first stage of […]

Rep. Duncan Likens Gun Registration To Rwanda Massacre

And the liberals freaked and went overboard, as the so-called Smartest People In The Country, the self-described super education, are incapable of understanding the words allegory, simile, and metaphor (The Hill) Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-S.C.) warned in a Facebook post on Thursday that a national gun registry would be similar to a database used by […]

Legal Insurrection: Know What’s Missing From The GOP Report?

William Jacobson notes something interesting RNC Report — 100 pages and not a single word about bloggers That’s right, nothing. The other day I noted, regarding the report, “seriously, how many bloggers, from big to small, were ever engaged by anyone in the GOP?” For the RNC to produce a 100-page report and not have […]

GOP Growth And Opportunity Plan Looks To Be Mostly Squishy

Perhaps there will be more in it once it is released than media outlets are reporting, but, probably not. The entrenched GOP leadership doesn’t seem to have a clue (Daily Caller) Why did Republicans fail to stop Barack Obama from winning another four years in the White House and what can they do to get […]

Politico Wonders “What’s The Future For Sarah Palin?”

Sarah Palin is one of the headliners at CPAC this year, with a big speech scheduled for Saturday. But, does she have a future in politics, or has she become, as Politico puts it, another Kardashian type figure, famous for being famous? In January 2009, Sarah Palin had the world on a string. A potential […]

Democrats Mostly Against Any Obama Grand Bargain

Unless it includes lots of tax increases and sharing the wealth policies (though none of them have been willing to send a check to the IRS themselves) (Politico) President Barack Obama may be thinking about a “grand bargain” to address spending and the federal deficit, but there’s a key constituency he has to persuade to […]

Obama Turns On Charm To Woo Republicans

Like I said yesterday, this is like a typical abusive relationship. Obama denigrates, insults, and beats Republicans constantly, then for a brief time turns on the charm, buys them dinner, some flowers, a bit of “quality time”, then will soon switch back to floggings when the laundry isn’t done on time (Washington Post) For more […]

Republican Senators Set Themselves Up As Fools After Dinner With Obama

These Republicans remind me of women (or men) who’ve been burned as their significant other beats them, then buys into the apology and post beating lovey dovey attitude, tells the cops and hospital they fell, and it happens again And again. And again (The Hill) Senate Republicans are more optimistic about the prospect of a […]
