I Triple Dog Dare You!

In a slight breach of etiquette, GWB skipped the triple dare and went right for the throat: U.S. Rep. John "Randy" Kuhl, R-29th, doesn’t know if President George W. Bush has given him one of his infamous nicknames, but if he has, it might involve "lollipop." Kuhl, who traveled with the president to the Rochester […]

Not a Filibuster?

From the dictionary: As a noun: The use of obstructionist tactics, especially prolonged speechmaking, for the purpose of delaying legislative action. An instance of the use of this delaying tactic. Despite making this deal on Tuesday, and saying they wouldn’t filibuster Bolton on Wednesday, the Dems did just that, starting with, who else, Boxer. "We […]

Conyers needs to read the Constitution

Via Little Green Footballs, through Basil’s Blog, we find that nutbag Rep. John Conyers wants to outlaw religious intolerance against Islam: I received a large number of comments, and quite a spirited debate, concerning my resolution opposing religious intolerance, including desecration of the Quran. I appreciate all of the comments, both those supporting and opposing […]

Moderate #$%^&^%$^er’s

Great. Wonderful. Awesome. <<<<<<sarcasm. Complete nimrods A bipartisan group of senators reached an agreement after days of talks to avert a showdown Tuesday over President Bush’s judicial nominees, Sen. John McCain announced Monday evening. Bite me. (If you are looking for proper discussion on this, ‘taint going to happen: this pisses me off). More: These […]

Say it ain’t so, Babs?

“It is not the role of the Senate to obstruct the process and prevent numbers of highly qualified nominees from even being given the opportunity for a vote on the Senate floor.” Sen. Barbara Boxer, Congressional Record, May 14, 1997 (via Urban Grounds) Oops. Not exactly new news, Michelle Malkin had an article about this […]

Dems offer more smear on Bolton

They. Just. Don’t. Get. It. All the Dems, in this case the Senate Dems, go for the smear tactic. This is school yard tactics. Juvenile. John R. Bolton planned to ask then-CIA Director George Tenet to help punish a government intelligence analyst who disagreed with Bolton, and then misled a Senate committee about the matter, […]

Democrats hate Democracy

The minority party needs to take a clue that they are a minority for a reason, and will remain that way for a long time. This kind of BS just puts the Democratic agenda into perfect light. (h/t to Blogs For Bush) U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist’s Communication Director Bob Stevenson today made the […]

The Kerry Plan?

This is absurd. Someone on the Left is actually calling for the "Kerry Plan" to be used in Iraq. Once the author gets done with the normal left wing rants, Bush, Bush, Bolton, Rice, Bush, blah blah blah, and regurgitating standard "it’s not done yet" regarding democratizing countries like this is a video game rather […]

A target rich environment

John Hawkins at Right Wing News talks about "reading the Huffington Post every day" since it is a "target rich environment." Let me add another one to the list. John Kerry’s official Senate site. So nice that Kerry uses this site, and official .gov site, to attack, attack, complain, whine, and attack. Somewhere among those […]

Where I Stand

An intersting quiz, via the Pirate’s Blog. Kinda hard to get the measure of a person with so few questions, but, I would say it is pretty close, ‘cepting that personal responsibility thing. Only thing I am "liberal" leaning is on the environment, though I do not take the liberal position of throwing money at […]
