Clinton Cleared, Per Obama’s 2-Year Plan

If you think the whole matter of Hillary’s email abuse – and hiding her records from public view – was staged you are probably  brighter than the average “Political Elite”.  Or at least much brighter than those “Elites” would give you credit at being. Today’s headlines echo the same talking point language President Obama uttered […]

More Harry Reid Desert Delights

Sen Majority Leader Harry Reid seems to be awash with incredible land deals in the deserts around Las Vegas. In 2002, Reid (D-Nev.) paid $10,000 to a pension fund controlled by Clair Haycock, a Las Vegas lubricants distributor and his friend for 50 years. The payment gave the senator full control of a 160-acre parcel […]

Let’s Bring Clinton Into The Reid Picture As Well?

Some Dems Now In Scandal Cross Hairs

Unlike the efforts to tar Dennis Hastert with the acts of Mark Foley, or to tar President Bush for the acts of Al Qaeda, the Democrats have some serious issues to face. And one of them is a long time in finally coming to a head. That would be what in the world was Sandy […]
