Democrat with Ethics Problems Resigns

New York Representative Eric Massa (D-NY) resigned today amid charges that he made a male staffer uncomfortable in a verbal exchange. The verbal exchange reportedly had sexual overtones.

He has accepted corporate-paid trips to the Caribbean, improperly raised money from his office for the Rangel Center for [...]

Health Care Reform Summit Arrogance

Here we are a year and a month into President Obama’s presidency and he has accomplished nothing and is still clinging to health care reform as if everyone wants it. The so called, “Health Care Summit” that took place a few days ago was bad political theater. The president either came prepared with Machiavellian lines [...]

Obama Panders to Women

President Obama is considering submitting a $3.8 trillion budget on February 1st that exempts programs for women and girls from the spending freeze he proposed a few days ago. This is payback to women for voting for him and, more importantly, is also a way to appease women’s groups. Many of these groups are upset [...]

Democrats Weep Thrice Over

This week saw Scott Brown (R-MA) win Ted Kennedy’s old seat in Massachusetts, the bankruptcy of Air America and the evisceration of the McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform legislation. These three represent a major challenge to the Democrats going forward.
Senator-elect Scott Brown becomes the 41st vote and prevents the Democrats from having unlimited power in the [...]

What a Difference a Day Makes…

President Obama said today, “The Senate certainly shouldn’t try to jam anything through until Scott Brown is seated. People in Massachusetts spoke. He’s got to be part of the process.” I cannot imagine him saying that yesterday when he was still working on secret deals and arm twisting to jam through the health care reform. [...]

Scott Brown 52 vs. Martha Coakley 47

The world is already reacting to the stunning upset by Senator Scott Brown (R-MA). Brown is now the 41st Republican vote in the Senate. This victory will temper the Democrats’ arrogance, mandates, taxation and spending. Even our currency is reacting positively to this victory. Reuters reported today that the United States dollar rallied against the [...]

The Tidal Wave of “Change” Has Started

Obama ran on the premise of “change.” Unfortunately, his change is one that the electorate of this country is soundly rejecting. The real change has started with the three Democratic losses in Virginia, New Jersey and now Massachusetts—the bluest of states. It is so blue, that Obama carried Massachusetts by 26 percentage points and Kennedy [...]
