Hillary Blames the Media

Saturday, December 22nd, 2007

Hillary Clinton is crying foul over her recent spate of bad media coverage, saying that the media is biased against her and therefore must want Barack Obama to win. At least one hack agrees. “‘She’s just held to a different standard in every respect,’ says Mark Halperin, Time‘s editor at large. ‘The press rooted for [...]

You Might Be a Ron Paul Junkie If…

Friday, December 21st, 2007

The folks at Ron Paul Forums decided to come up with some handy guidelines in case you want to know if you qualify as a “Ron Paul Junkie”. Some of them hit close to home, I’ll admit… OK, most of them! First, some easy ones: “You stay up every night posting on forums until 4am.” [...]

This morning on that fine show Fox and Friends, Ron Paul quoted Sinclair Lewis in reference to Mike Huckabee’s anything-but-subtle “is-it-a-cross-or-is-it-a-window-pane” ad, saying: “It reminds me of what Sinclair Lewis once said. He says, ‘when fascism comes to this country, it will be wrapped in the flag, carrying a cross.’ Now I don’t know whether [...]

Ron Paul, the $6 Million (In One Day) Man

Monday, December 17th, 2007

Ron Paul raised more than $6 million (exact numbers still being tallied) today during a “money bomb” his supporters created in honor of the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. At midnight EST, Paul’s real-time donations ticker read $17,980,000, after beginning the day 24 hours earlier reading about $11.5 million. Update: I’m told that the [...]

John Edwards must be having a rough time. He’s raised so little money for his presidential campaign, and according to the FEC, he now can’t use your tax dollars to double the $4.5 million he pulled in from the Democratic PAC, ActBlue. Edwards claims that he does not accept PAC money, but ActBlue is technically [...]

Hillary’s Dad

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

Hillary Clinton on her childhood: “My father really was an old-fashioned conservative with a small ‘c.’… He believed in hard work, and that everyone had to do their part and be willing to take responsibility.” According to the Washington Post, Hugh Rodham was a small businessman who didn’t believe in “debt, big government, the capital [...]

I Never Knew Jeffrey Toobin Was Such An Idiot

Saturday, December 1st, 2007

Jeffrey Toobin is one of those generic journalists, writing so much in so many different places, so un-memorably, that even though you know his name when you hear it, it doesn’t matter because you can’t recall a damn thing he ever wrote. He’s no George Will, that’s for sure. Anyway, Toobin said that Ron Paul [...]

No wonder Tax Hike Mike Huckabee doesn’t want to get rid of all that bureaucracy in Washington (and in fact, wants to create more). Until she quit to work on his presidential campaign, Huckabee’s daughter Sarah worked for what Republicans have traditionally found to be the most bureaucratic and unnecessary agency, the federal Department of [...]

Is Ron Paul Crazy?

Sunday, November 25th, 2007

I’ve come to the conclusion that 10-term Congressman Ron Paul is crazy. First of all, he has refused to take his lucrative congressional pension. When elected to Congress, 99.99% of politicians are smart enough to get what’s due to them as a public servant and actually take their pension. With all his time in office, [...]
