“It’s all about sex.” Remember that one? You know, the elected official who got busted lieing to a grand jury about having an affair with another person under their leadership and used the bully pulpit their position provided to publicize their defense?

A lot is being made over another milestone in Iraq. The 4,000th US soldier died since the war started in 2003. That’s five years. That’s about 800 a year. That’s a lot. But, not much is being made over the perspective of this. For instance, about 2,000 people were killed in 2006 ( the most [...]

A lot is being made over Obama’s dealing with his pastor’s comments. Now, here’s where the big problem is in my opinion. You’re going to have to bear with me while I kind of lay it out.

Remember that promise of change in 2006? You know, the one where the Democrats promised to get rid of the cronyism and corruption in DC? Well, they had a chance to walk the walk yesterday. There was a bill in the form of an amendment to eliminate earmarks completely. Here’s a list of the “changelings” [...]

Here’s the news:
House Democrats on Tuesday failed to overturn President Bush’s veto of a bill that would have prohibited the CIA from using waterboarding and other harsh interrogation techniques on terrorist suspects.

Nancy Pelosi promised us a lot of things when she took over Congress. This was in response to the perceived public demand for change by electing her party into power the previous year. So far, the results have been ugly with practically no media attention given to why.
In response to rising gas prices, which she [...]

A rising star of the Democrat Party, Eliot Spitzer gained fame prosecuting corporations among other things as Attorney General. Now he’s in deep doo-doo. I’m still waiting for Nancy Pelosi to cite him as yet another example of the Democrat Culture of Corruption.
