Credit Where Credit Is Not Due
Steve Newton of Delaware Libertarian has written two recent posts (more on his latest posts at the bottom) on the Glenn Beck organization We Surround Them.

One Can Only Hope
New Calls for Assault-Gun Ban Gun-control activists have renewed calls for the federal government to reinstate a ban on so-called assault weapons in the wake of Tuesday’s deadly shooting rampage in Alabama.

Breaking: Carper to Join ‘Blue Dog’ Dems Group
It is bad enough that ‘career politician’ (cue the ominous music) Tom Carper has fashioned a 30-year career out of not standing for anything save his own electability, coupled with a Robo-Candidate mentality. It is bad enough that Tom Carper has succeeded in this quest by whoring himself out as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the […]
