Petition To Censure Russ “Owned” Feingold

Scrapiron tipped me in a previous post about an online petition to censure Feingold, which will be sent to the Senate leadership. I’m assuming that does not include Durbin and Reid, but rather those in the sane Party. I apologize if others have already posted this. I have been in meetings all Tuesday and Wednesday, […]

Feingold Good For Bush

Hah! Gotta love this (via Bloomberg) A Democratic senator’s attempt to censure President George W. Bush over his eavesdropping authorization is getting a warm welcome from unlikely sources: the Bush White House and the Republican Party. After weeks of bad news on Iraq, defeat on the Dubai ports deal and plummeting approval ratings, the Bush […]

Russ Feingold: Owned Like A Rented Mule

Morning, y’all! Jebediah here. Short post, hotel wifi not cooperating, meetings all day. But still better then Rented Russ. WASHINGTON – Wisconsin Sen. Russell Feingold accused fellow Democrats on Tuesday of cowering rather than joining him on trying to censure President Bush over domestic spying. “Democrats run and hide” when the administration invokes the war […]

Feingold Not Doing Well

I would say that Russ Feingold has zero shot at being the 2008 Democratic Rented Presidential Candidate position (via NewsMax): Democrats distanced themselves Monday from Wisconsin Sen. Russell Feingold’s effort to censure President Bush over domestic spying. Feingold’s fellow Democrats did just that Monday, with several saying they wanted first to see the Senate Intelligence […]

Censure Russ Feingold

  Mark Noonan at Blogs For Bush is recommending that Russ Feingold be censured for his idiotic political Leftist patronization Given that the only possible beneficiaries of such an action are the terrorist enemeis of the United States, I believe that we should urge the Senate to censure Senator Feingold for giving aid and comfort […]

I Calls ‘Em Like I See’s ‘Em

Man, what I wouldn’t give to be Harold Ford’s shrink. The inside of his brain must look like Saigon in the last days of the war (“We shall overcome! / Shut up, nigger. / Who you calling nigger? / Did I say, “nigger.” I meant, “Fred.”). There must be something about being a black Democrats that […]

Ken Mehlman Address at Southern Republican Leadership Conference

A few excerpts (via GOP.com) Do Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean really think that when the NSA is listening in on foreign terrorists planning attacks on America, they need to hang up when those terrorists dial their sleeper cells here in the United States? Was Harry Reid really that proud when he announced last year, […]

Cankles And Sweatshops

Byron York at the National Review has an interesting expose on little miss 16% Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton has accepted campaign contributions from a Saipan garment-industry tycoon, sometimes described as a sweatshop operator, whose ties to disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff have been part of the lobbying scandal investigation. Newly filed Federal Election Commission records show […]

DB Ports World Backs Out. Sort Of

Interesting. Via Yahoo News:  A Dubai-owned company abruptly abandoned its plan for managing operations at six U.S. ports Thursday, defusing an election-year showdown between President Bush and the Republican-controlled Congress over an issue that had become a political land mine for the GOP. “DP World will transfer fully the U.S. operations … to a United […]

Little Miss 16% Loves Illegals

To paraphrase the Gipper, “there she goes again.” Hillary opens mouth, inserts foot (via Confederate Yankee from the Boston Globe) Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a potential White House candidate in 2008, said Wednesday some Republicans are trying to create a “police state” to round up illegal immigrants. Speaking at a rally of Irish immigrants, Clinton criticized […]
