Everyone likes to talk about tipping points in politics. Well we may have just hit one with the pork ridden Spendulus bill, followed by the pork laden Omnibus bill, followed by the economic down turn in the markets (if the DOW is a tracking poll, public opinion is heading into the tank).  The liberal spend-fest […]

As should be well known, folks on the right have found clear evidence of liberal democrats wanting President Bush to fail. Heck, I can find evidence of Amnesty Hypochondriacs on the right wanting Presidente Bustrada -Ze Traitor –  to fail as well. No shocker here, except for those crazy souls who think only Rush Limbaugh […]

Doug Ross lays out a devastating story line of why we are where we are. A small snippet: These are Democratic operatives Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelick and Jim Johnson, the executive management team of Fannie Mae, all of whom were awarded positions after loyal service in the Clinton administration. These are the pay packages the […]

Update: Yep, it is getting bad for Obama out there. Now the Washington Post is out saying Obama is no Reagan, he is just another George W Bush: Then, according to today’s established wisdom, Bush squandered his chance to lead.
