House Democrat: Florida Governor-elect Should Be “Shot”
9. November 2010
Congressman Paul Kanjorski (D-PA) has called for the murder of Florida Governor-elect Rick Scott (R). Actually, he called for the murder prior to the election and the report was lost in the shuffle, so he called for the murder of then-Republican nominee Rick Scott. “That Scott down there that’s running for governor of Florida,” Mr. [...]
Wow: Menendez’s Approval Just 38% in New Jersey
9. November 2010
Very interesting. It would appear that tax-cutting, union-fighting Republican governor Chris Christie has a significantly higher approval rating in New Jersey than liberal Democratic senator Bob Menendez. In fact, Christie’s approval rating is higher than Barack Obama’s, or any other statewide leader’s for that matter. New Jersey Gov. Christopher Christie gets decent grades from voters [...]

California Borrowing $40 Million Per Day to Fund Unemployment Claims
9. November 2010
One out of every eight workers in the Golden State are unemployed today. That, combined with the state’s insatiable appetite for welfare programs it can’t afford, has lead to California borrowing $40 million per day just to fund unemployment programs. Here’s the bigger problem, though: The lender is the federal government. The same federal government [...]

Maxine Waters of California is, remarkably, involved in yet another ethics scandal.

But one of the staffers was described [...]
Jesse Ventura: I’d totally win the presidency if only Bloomberg financed my campaign
8. November 2010
This national embarrassment was once the governor Minnesota. Amazing. Said Ventura: “If Bloomberg could finance me for the Presidency, I would win it. So, if he doesn’t want it, he could hire me to do it for him.” Yeah, Americans would totally vote for an eccentric former wrestler and 9/11 Truther who currently hosts an [...]
