Filed in National by on February 8, 2007 6 Comments

Celia Cohen is not my favorite person. Her website, Delawaregrapevine, is to Castle, Carper and Biden what Pravda was to the Soviet Union. So someone check me on this: In fact, there has been some back-room chatter about drafting Ferris W. Wharton, the ex-prosecutor who gave Democrat Joseph R. “Beau” Biden III a scare last […]

Chairman Dean took his 50 State message to DSU yesterday, but I could not make it. (stupid paycheck!) Anyway, the best thing that ever happened to the Democratic party was the media lynching of Dean the Republicans organized that knocked him out of the Presidential campaign, but eventually made him chairman.

Speaking of budgets, Tom Carper’s buddy has a super idea. “I think we have to start thinking about a war on terrorism tax,” Lieberman said during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing on Bush’s defense budget. “I mean, people keep saying we’re not asking a sacrifice of anybody but our military in this war and […]

Here is his recent statement on Bush’s budget. “Once again, President Bush’s rhetoric doesn’t match the reality of his promises to the American people. In his newly released budget, he once again puts tax cuts […]

Think123  has a great comment over at FSP.    The black middle class exists today only because of massive and liberal government intervention. The Great Society, bringing forth civil rights and affirmative action, ranks right up there with the Civil War as a liberating force for black people in America. It created justice where there […]
