The word is he’s drunk. Watch and let me know what you think. I’m looking to find the exact time of this (uhem) discussion.

Anyone else feel it?

December 24th, 2009 · 1 Comment

While I’m pretty sure I managed the build up for the first time in years without a single “bah humbug,” it sure feels strange out there. I think this morning’s health care vote sucked more out of the season than people want to admit. In any event, try to set it all aside and celebrate [...]

A second day of disillusionment from the left

December 23rd, 2009 · 2 Comments

Yesterday is it was left-of-left-of-left blogger Zach W. Today it’s that guy with a special way with words. (The Chief is decidedly big-kid language. You’ve been warned.) Follow the link he offers.

Obama: The federal government will go bankrupt.

December 17th, 2009 · 2 Comments

That’s Obama’s threat to the American people if Congress doesn’t pass a health care reform bill. He delivered the ultimatum during an interview with ABC’s Charlie Gibson. He also guarantees if the bill doesn’t pass then your premiums will go up. Thank goodness Americans are smart enough to know he’s lying. Obama’s numbers are tanking. [...]

December 15th, 2009 · 1 Comment

That’s the word from the Plum Line. In a blow to the bill grinding through the Senate, Howard Dean bluntly called for the bill to be killed in a pre-recorded interview set to air later this afternoon, denouncing it as “the collapse of health care reform in the United States Senate,” the reporter who conducted [...]
