Democrats Not very Good With Strategy

The Democrats appear to have shot themselves in the foot. Harry Reid and his gang of liberals have decided that Roland Burris of Illinois will not be seated in the Senate. Governor Rod Blagojevich selected Burris to fill the seat vacated by soon to be President Obama and that has rankled the Senate Dems.

Californians, Guard Your Children

One of the horrible things about pedophile sex offenders is that, unlike ordinary opportunistic, amoral offenders, they are driven by an overwhelming compulsion.  They’re not the smelly old man living in the broken down house.  They’re the pre-school teacher, the scout leader, the priest hosting youth groups, and the nice looking man who coincidentally moves [...]

Dean Lowers Nutroot Expectations in Conference Call

Earlier I wrote about the outrage expressed by nutroot bloggers over the decision to let Joe Lieberman keep his chairmanship of the Homeland Security and Oversight Committee.
In the wake of that outrage Howard Dean held a blogger conference call with unhinged lefty bloggers, including Jane Hamsher of Firedog Lake. Those paying attention remember Hamsher as [...]

Hypocrite Dems Seek to Rescue an Industry They Loathe
I’ve kept quiet about the proposed GM bailout emanating from the Democrats because, frankly, I don’t have enough information or understanding to add anything to the great comments you all have been leaving at the blog.  (Especially that “German” series, which has kept me in giggles for [...]

Bush Angry At Obama’s Leaks From Yesterday’s Meeting…

I simply can’t imagine why Bush would be angry at this.
Just hours after President Bush and President-elect Obama met in the Oval Office of the White House, details of their confidential conversation began leaking out to the press, igniting anger from the president, sources claim.
For all my dislike of the things he’s done during his [...]

Arnold the Schmuck

Listen, and understand. That terminator is out there. It can be voted down…but it might go to court over it. It thinks you can be reasoned with. It feels pity, remorse, fear, phony compassion, and tons and tons of guilt. And it might stop, before you are dead. Maybe. Or it might maybe undo you.
