One more way George Bush killed the Republican “pro-life” party

Filed in National by on February 18, 2008 2 Comments

I’ve been poking my nose into an insipid “Big Tent Vs. Wet Blanket” thread about the future of Republicanism over at FSP. In the course of trying, Yoda like, to lead the blind men to the truth of what it really means to be “pro-life” it occurred to me that while George Bush used the […]

WDEL Ignores 50% of the Atkins Story

Filed in National by on February 18, 2008 3 Comments

WTF? WDEL is normally much better than this. In drive time, they followed the news journal’s lead and totally ignored the 41st Democratic Committee’s absolute rejection of John Atkins. Hey WDEL, giving half the truth is tantamount to lying.

Helene M. Keeley (D) is the DE GOP’s “Ace in the Hole”

Filed in National by on February 17, 2008 23 Comments

Helene M. Keeley is employed by the Department of Labor AND she cast the deciding vote on a bill that was written and pushed by the Department of Labor which ipso facto excuses corrupt Delaware Republican party officials like Terry Strine from any culpability whatsoever for whatever egregious, flagrant, corruptastic hijinks they may decide to […]

“FOUR MORE YEARS!”

Filed in National by on February 17, 2008 4 Comments

When you read this, keep in mind that Dave Burris is a “CPAC Republican.” Derangement Syndrome Redux by smintheus George W. Bush’s failures are so dizzying in scale and scope that, ironically, plenty of Republicans still can’t even make them out against the gloom-shrouded horizon.

The Senate’s Orwellian “Protect America Act” revisions to FISA extension bill expired tonight so this is back: The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, […]

Clinton Supporters Are as Horrible as Clinton

Filed in National by on February 16, 2008 11 Comments

I find sickening that Senator Clinton’s supporters are so eager to adopt bullshit GOP spin about Obama, especially the nonsense that he is all charisma and no policies. It is utter nonsense.
