Republican Senator’s Best Defense Again Sotomayer? Ethnic Humor!

Ok, you’re a Republican Senator from Oklahoma.  You know Sonia Sotomayer is going to get confirmed for the Supreme Court, but you’ve got some questions to ask first.
What’s the best approach to get the answers you need?? 
Why, of course, it’s ethnic humor!  Nothing like dropping in a Ricky Riccardo  reference while [...]

What GM Proves About Our Government That The GOP Doesn’t Want You To Know!

General Motors exited bankruptcy on Friday in just about 40 days.  That’s about two days less than it took the much small Chrysler to get out of bankruptcy.  Leaving aside whether government intervention was the right answer or not, getting both companies out of chapter 11 so quickly is amazing.
What certain Republicans would have you [...]

Congress Yucks It Up While Wasting Our Time & Money! Proof!

Republicans in the House recently tried a stalling tactic that the Democrats got around by hiring a speed reader.   In the end, everyone had a bi-partisan laugh riot.  And the American people have the proof that both parties aren’t working hard enough to get us back on track…

Republicans Still Foxy After All! In Shocker They Pause Spending Bill!

Let’s put it out there.  I think a lot of what the GOP has done since the election of our new president is wrongheaded.  They have seemed tone deaf and in denial about the desire for change the election signaled.  I get that they were shut out of drafting the stimulus legislation in the House, [...]

A Shock Jock Runs The Republican Party! And That’s Only The Second Worst Thing To Happen To Republicans This Week!

On the heels of the ELECTED head of the Republican Party apologizing for nothing to blowhard Rush Limbaugh comes more bad news for the GOP.  A Wall Street Journal poll reports that the president that Limbaugh hopes fails currently has his highest approval ratings ever.
After six weeks on the job, according to this poll, Americans [...]

Risky Games! Does The President Or The GOP Have The Pulse Of The Nation?

I think it was soon after being elected that Barack Obama started making statements about how we needed to get the economy going again and so his administration wasn’t going to spend much time worrying about our record deficits.  The logic was job was to get America working again and once that was accomplished it’d [...]

Bob Grant Proves Republicans Have It Tougher Than African Americans!

Bob Grant is about a 110 years old.  For what seems like at least half that time, he’s been busy polluting the air waves of the New York area and beyond.  Currently, he’s on WABC Talk Radio out of that great bastion of Conservative Though, New York City.
I was driving home tonight and listening to [...]

Breaking News! Turns Out Economy Is Not Cyclical!! It’s Just Shaq-tastic!

When talking to my many Republican leaning friends and acquaintances over the years, I’ve often heard about all the good Ronald Reagan (may he rest in peace) did for the U.S. economy.  When I inevitably bring up Bill Clinton’s economic record to these same friends, I usually get dismissed very quickly.  It’s typically with something along [...]

Palin’s First Impression! JUST IN… She’s Fine. GOP Fresh Out Of Ideas!

Governor and now Vice Presidential Nominee Sarah Palin introduced herself to America tonight.  She did OK on the big stage.  And she may yet prove to be an asset to John McCain.
It was still very surreal to see her up there.  It really felt like something out of a movie.  Here was someone coming out [...]

Yawn… When Does This Thing Get Nasty?

Having lived through Karl Rove’s multiple assaults on common decency and aggressive campaigns run by Lee Attwater, I may well be jaded.  Maybe that’s the reason I’m not all in a lather with the rest of America about how nasty the Hillary-Obama contest has gotten.  Is it me or has this campaign NOT been all [...]
