Patrick Hughes, Republican for United States Senate
November 14, 2009 | Comments Off
Concerned Illinois citizens have an important choice to make on February 2nd, 2010. We must choose the Republican nominee for the United States Senate seat once held, albeit briefly and often in absentia, by President Barack Obama. We must choose from an informed position as opposed to letting apathy or the money of D.C. “moderates” [...]

Demotivator Nails Our Current… Err… Leadership?
November 8, 2009 | Comments Off
I was perusing the new Demotivators catalog this evening and I saw a poster that perfectly represented the atrocity that is our current crop of political porkers. There can be no plausible denial of the obvious fact that many of what are referred to as our “leaders” (or in Barry’s case, our “reader”) derive inspiration [...]

One Less Enemy of the Unborn in the U.S. House?
73wire.com, which will officially launch on November 4, 2009, is reporting that Margaret Sanger Award winning, Card Check supporting ridiculous excuse for a Republican, DeDe Scazzafava is dropping out of the race to represent NY-23! I cannot help but wonder if [...]

Obameo and Juliet: a Modern Tragedy
October 24, 2009 | Comments Off
Upfront disclaimer for the whiny know-it-all: Perhaps Barack Obama and The Washington Obamost’s Juliet Eilperin are not from warring families and are not in love (although I am not convinced fair Juliet does not dream of what it might be like to replace RuPaul as First Lady). Therefore, if your delicate intellectual sensibilities are offended [...]

The Role of the Federal Government According to Orrin Hatch
October 24, 2009 | Comments Off
Earlier this year I wrote that “Orrin Hatch Should Retire!” because he chose to abuse his position as U.S. Senator and position on the “relevant” committee to hold a hearing because Utah didn’t get to play for the National Championship. Unfortunately, Senator Hatch has not retired and is still seeking to use the power of the [...]

Queer Eye for the Adoption Agency?
October 18, 2009 | Comments Off
Following the recent pander-fest at which “Big Brother” Barry proclaimed his intention to repeal “don’t ask, don’t tell.” I was left thinking about logistical issues that obviously don’t bear consideration by the eloquent reader. Who has time to consider logistics or even the plight of our servicemen and women in Afghanistan when there is a [...]

Organizing Against America Says it “Time to Deliver”
October 17, 2009 | Comments Off
While the state that Barack Obama chose as a stepping stone for his political ascendency (I can’t help but wonder if he followed his buddy/ghost writer/unrepentant domestic terrorist Bill Ayers to Chicago from Columbia U) attempts to cope with its liberal induced fiscal mess and the heartburn of the election season, Barackobama.com maintains its assault [...]

Healthcare, Deficits, & Durbin
October 10, 2009 | Comments Off
Mad Max Baucus, the healthcare reform Road Warrior, received a favor from the CBO and now appears to be set to Rahm the bill through. Who doubts that Rahm the erstwhile ballerina twisted a few arms after the CBO originally declined to play Obamaball? By the way, if you are inclined to read “the bill” [...]

Should Illinois “Put-Back” the Power?
October 6, 2009 | Comments Off
I hope this post sparks debate and results in feedback regarding the subject of government reform in the state of Illinois. Our state government may not be the absolute worst in the union, but it certainly far from accepatble. Unfortunately for the nation, the Chicago disease has metastasized to Washington D.C. with the election of [...]
