  • A-Klo Isn’t a Moderate


    Let Freedom RingAuthority Authority: 138
    It’s long been my contention that Amy Klobuchar isn’t a moderate. Thanks to her voting to slash Medicare’s home care budget , not to mention voting for slashing $460,000,000,000 from the overall Medicare bill, we now have proof that she’s willing to put a higher priority on partisanship than on good ...

    Let Freedom RingAuthority Authority: 138
    My first reaction to Steny Hoyer’s whining presentation was that he should whine from a different hymnal because this speech was from a discredited hymnal: “One of our two great parties is now an organization committed to an unprecedented level of lockstep opposition to the president,” said Hoyer. “A ...

  • Revolution 21 -- Part VI


    Libertarian BlogAuthority Authority: 137
    The New Deal revealed how fickle the American people can be in times of emergencies.

    Saturday afternoon, I attended Michele Bachmann’s Christmas party in St. Cloud. There she revealed what I already knew: that Speaker Pelosi has painted a big bullseye on Michele’s back. I think that’s because Speaker Pelosi hates Michele’s principled opposition to Speaker Pelosi’s radical agenda. ...
