Game Change: Obama’s Inexperience

I just finished reading Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime. This books provides an inside view of the 2008 presidential campaign and all its personalities. If more than half of what is in the book is true, it is extraordinarily damning of the people involved in [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Comedian Franken Muzzles Lieberman

Senator Al Franken (D-MN), also known for his previous career as a below average comedian, would not consent to giving Senator Lieberman (I-CT) a few extra moments to finish his comments today on the Senate floor. This led to some testiness between the two with some additional comments added by Senator McCain (R-AZ).
Here is video [...]

Judge Sotomayor Approved 68-31

The Democrats have flexed their muscle in the Senate and approved what is arguably the most liberal judge that has been nominated for the Supreme Court in decades. The vote yesterday was mostly along party lines. Much is being made about the fact that she is a woman and of Hispanic descent. I think that [...]

Harry Reid Punishing Joe Lieberman

Senator Lieberman (D-CT) is one of the most reasonable Democrats in the Senate. He was the Democrat candidate for vice president during the 2000 race. After being defeated in the 2006 Democrat primaries in Connecticut, he ran as an independent and was reelected Senator. More recently, he supported Senator John McCain (R-AZ) in his bid [...]

Democrats Now Rule America Completely

The networks have projected Senator Obama, President-elect of the United States of America. This news is depressing for those of us who did not support him and who are, frankly, afraid of total Democrat control of the government. It is my hope that this total control will not be abused.
Nonetheless, I want to congratulate President-elect [...]

McCain Shows Humor on SNL

Senator John McCain has always had a good sense of humor and a genuine self-deprecating style. Yesterday, he showed the world that he can be funny even in the middle of a serious campaign for the presidency. He appeared on Saturday Night Live along with his wife and poked fun at his lack of funds [...]

Obama as Robin Hood

Senator Obama has repeatedly said that he wants tax breaks for he middle class. He has told “Joe the Plumber” that he wants to “spread the wealth.” When he started this quasi-Socialist spread-the-wealth campaign, Obama defined the people who would be receiving tax breaks as those families that make less than $250,000 per year.
At a [...]

McCain’s Fired Up to Fight!

In a rally in Hershey, Pennsylvania today, Senator John McCain showed that he can get fired up and deliver a speech that can motivate people and make them feel proud to be American. The majority of the speech was dedicated to pointing out the differences between his policies and those of Senator Obama, but at [...]
