Chuck Schumer: Let’s Curtail Freedom

While looking for a news release regarding Chuck's statement after President W's speech on G'itmo, the detainees, et al (he started yapping on about Constitutional rights for the detainees, who, as those with a full deck know, are not American citizens) I ran across this story. In it, he is whining about security for the […]

How Dems Spent Labor Day

Really, this is just sad. The official website of the Braying Asses, er, Defeatocrats, um, Democrats, beseeched Braying Asses to call radio stations and tell them what the Democrats are going to do for the working classes On Labor Day, think about issues that affect working Americans. Call in to a radio show and talk about how Democrats […]

Crikey! Dems Oppose Global Trade

In a shocker (sic), Democrats have admitted that they actually oppose things. Of course, in another shocker, they offer no alternatives! House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi urged colleagues in July to vote against a trade agreement with Oman, proclaiming that Democrats' first order of business if they win control of the House this fall will […]

Dems Don’t Want To Predict Win In November (?)

While the story overall is no bad, this must be the silliest headline I have seen in awhile: Dems loathe to predict win this fall: Call it the campaign with no margin for Republican error, in a nation that is war-weary and eager for change, yet seems wary of the Democratic option. Even Republicans tacitly […]

As The Leak Trickles

Linda Chavez, writing at the Washington Times, provides a nice little wrap up on "the scandal that wasn't no matter how much the liberals wanted it to be." So now we know. The man behind the leak of former CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity was not presidential adviser Karl Rove, nor Vice President Dick Cheney's […]

Katrina 1/5 Insensitivity

Today is the one year anniversary of Katrina. Now, perhaps many may find this insensitive, and take me to task, but, I think the media and the lefties, often one and the same, are over doing the issue. And, we know why. PPP. Petty partisan politics. Blame Bush. BDS. The media never made a huge […]

The Plame d’Affair: I’m A Wee Bit Pissed

After think a bit more during some wee free time today, I must say that I am getting rather pissed off at the whole affair. Captain Ed wrote yesterday: Addendum: The more I think about this, the angrier I get — and not just at Patrick Fitzgerald. Richard Armitage confessed to the DoJ in October […]

Beer Monday Linkfest: Rove Not Indicted Next Week?

And a happy start to the work week. Time for a beer with the news. That is what was missing from that PJM vblog [gv data=”http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=6800957476264717058&hl=en”][/gv] Sointenly, liberals, especially Jason Leopold and the other proggies at Truthout, will need some beer and a beautiful vista, though I suspect the vista would involve a protest march […]

Thongs Greet Obama As He Goes All Photo Op

So, when United States Of America President George W. Bush goes to see the troops in Iraq on Thanksgiving, the press terms that a phony photo op. When W went to New Orleans on multiple occassions, particularly at the request of "Chocolate City" Nagin, the press called those visits photo ops. You know, because the […]

Johnson Beats Embarrasment McKinney

Morning, y'all, Jebediah here.  One kook won in Conneticut, another lost in Atlanta. Both races seemed to be the typical Democratic "don't vote for them," but at least Hank Johnson discussed himself now and then (from the Atlanta JC) Hank Johnson, the soft-spoken DeKalb County commissioner who forced U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney into a surprising […]
