They like to refer to us as senior citizens, old fogies, geezers, and in some cases dinosaurs. Some of us are “baby boomer” getting ready to retire. Others have been retired for some time. We walk a little slower these days and our eyes and hearing are not what they once were. We have worked [...]
This year’s midterm election is going to be one of the most expensive in history, with the Democrats having an advantage of almost $180 million. Politico’s Jeanne Cummings discusses. Oct 27, 2010 View at: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39918524/ns/politics-decision_2010/ Social Bookmarking
Party strategists funnel donations from nonprofits into attack ads, records show While President Obama and other Democrats have excoriated Republican “front groups” for using secret money to pay for attack ads, the party’s political committees have begun doing something similar: collecting cash from outside nonprofit groups that don’t disclose their contributors and using the money [...]
WASHINGTON – A friend once told me, after completing a cross-country drive, that he always thought you should feel somehow different as you crossed a state line. No doubt it was a feeling left over from grade-school geography classes, in which U.S. maps showed each state in different, vibrant colors. Instead, the difference is unnoticeable. [...]
The Good Book tells us that pride goes before a fall, and with the midterm elections looming perhaps nothing encapsulates the truth of this maxim more than the leadership of the Democrat Party and its constituency of liberal media elites. The Left’s inability to engage opposing views with seriousness and respect and their unwillingness to [...]
One must be careful to not assume too much. But, as columnist Pat Buchanan stated it late last week, “the polls and pundits are all in alignment now,” and it seems to be a foregone conclusion – even at the White House – that the Obama Democrat party is going to suffer a severe rebuke. [...]
Yesterday’s rally by Jon Stewart saw hundreds of thousands of people flood the Capitol complex. It was colorful, to say the least.Oct 31, 2010 By Jillian Bandes http://townhall.com/tipsheet/JillianBandes/2010/10/31/restoring_sanityone_nutty_sign_at_a_time Social Bookmarking
Former Gov. Pete Wilson is the only politician to have beat Jerry Brown in an election. In 1982, Wilson, then-San Diego mayor, trounced Brown, then California’s big-foot governor, in the race for U.S. Senate 51 to 45 percent. Now Wilson serves as Meg Whitman’s campaign chairman. On Thursday, he told me not to believe polls [...]
WASHINGTON — During the Tuesday evening deluge, pay particular attention to these stories: By George Will October 31, 2010 http://patriotpost.us/opinion/george-will/2010/10/31/whats-at-stake-tuesday/ Social Bookmarking
I wonder why we still make office holders swear to defend the Constitution when, more often than not, they’re the very ones from whom it needs protection. Come to think of it, if anyone condemned our senators and congressmen for ignoring the Constitution, they could, with some justification, point at several members of the Supreme [...]
