Barbara Boxer Taken to the Woodshed For Racial Condescension
Her statement wasn’t just dripping with condescension. There was so much condescension running off that thing I was surprised her aides didn’t have to run to the floor with buckets. Harry Alford of the National Black Chamber of Commerce came to testify upon invitation on energy policy. But when he took a stance that clearly [...]
Senate Committee Approves Socialized Health-Care Bill
15. July 2009
Thirteen to ten, along party lines. Democrats have cleared another hurdle in the sprint to the destruction of our nation’s health-care system.

Voting on strict party lines, the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee approved a [...]

Disaster: Unemployment Hits 15.2% in Michigan
15. July 2009
Wait, it gets worse. That number only includes the number of jobs lost up until the end of June, not the 15 other days thus far in July. The rate jumped 1.1% from the end of May until the end of June, so with economists projecting rising unemployment through the rest of the year and [...]
AP: Leahy Rewrites History In Order to Praise Sotomayor
15. July 2009
He doesn’t just screw up a few words. Leahy removed the entire controversial aspect of the “wisa Latina” quote, giving the impression that she was just saying that her experiences led her to wise decisions — not better decisisons than those made by white men. Look at it this way: It was hackish enough for [...]
Website Issues
14. July 2009
So, today I had a double technological disaster. First, my computer crashed. I don’t mean I turned it off and it wouldn’t start again or I got the blue screen of death. I mean it just turned itself off and refused to go back on. I’ve resorted to using my netbook until I can get [...]

Poll: Majority Believe Palin Resigned for Her Political Ambitions
14. July 2009
As I predicted, the majority of Americans aren’t going to accept that a woman who sought the vice presidency and talks constantly about the good she’s done for Alaska resigned from her first term because of unfair attacks on her family or because she thought it was best for her state. They see the premature [...]
Video: Inside the Canadian Health-Care System

Watch as Steven Crowder exposes the true Canadian health-care system. Contrary to what we’re told by the likes of Michael Moore and Barack Obama, it’s a living nightmare. Crowder’s friend, pretending to have hurt his wrist in a skateboarding accident, attempts to visit the free clinic only to find it’s closed on the weekends. So, [...]

Norma McCorvey, better known under the pseudonym “Jane Roe”, was arrested for protesting Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor’s support of abortion rights during today’s Senate hearing.
