On Nancy Pelosi’s Bizarre Ground Zero Mosque Statements

Posted on August 18th, 2010 by macaoidh

Yesterday, as Democrats began fleeing from the outrage of the American people over the President’s statement – since walked back – in support of the mosque at Ground Zero, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi surged forward with perhaps the most inflammatory statement yet on the subject. “There is no question there is a concerted effort to [...]

Pelosi Nixes Independent Investigation Of Oil Spill From CLEAR Act

Posted on July 29th, 2010 by macaoidh

As the unfortunate process of moving the CLEAR Act – which would restrict oil and gas exploration through a series of harmful regulations and new taxes – toward a floor vote in the House of Representatives continues, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi took a step yesterday to carry water for President Obama and against the people [...]

Pelosi: Rangel Didn’t Know He Violated House Rules

Posted on July 28th, 2010 by macaoidh

Pelosi is either stupid, thinks Charlie Rangel is stupid or (most likely) thinks the American people are. Watch this for yourself and see if it’s defensible.

GOP “Mediocracy” Aims At Holding True Talent Down

Posted on July 27th, 2010 by macaoidh

In all likelihood, the Republicans will retake the House in November. There are those who will say they won’t get the 39 seats they’ll need to make John Boehner the Speaker of the House, but don’t believe them. The GOP is ahead by 10 points on the generic Congressional ballot at present, which is a [...]

“Representation Without Taxation” And The Drilling Moratorium

Posted on July 19th, 2010 by macaoidh

As we posted last week, an amendment offered by Rep. Bill Cassidy which would have done away with the Obama administration’s illegal (according to federal courts at the district and circuit levels) moratorium on deepwater drilling was beaten in the House Natural Resources Committee on Thursday by a 26-22 vote. (Click here for the tally [...]

Inconvenient Truths

Posted on July 8th, 2010 by Michael Youngblood

This week we’ve examined how the EPA is punishing Texas and the refining and petro-chemical industries there for implementing methods to reduce emissions.  We have also examined how the ban on incandescent light bulbs will result in the release of mercury to waste water streams, ground water, and soil, how wind farms kill birds and [...]

Part One: Vote to raise the national debt ceiling Elections (past, present, and future) have consequences.

The Job Number Stats You’ll Be Told Are “Good” Today…

Posted on July 2nd, 2010 by macaoidh

Via Hot Air, 225,000 Census jobs went away in the month of June, the private sector created 83,000 jobs (to stay ahead of population growth the private economy needs to create 100,000 each month) and there was a net loss of 125,000 jobs in the economy, per today’s jobs report. This is good news, we’ll [...]

Nancy Pelosi Doesn’t Want GOP Congressmen Seeing Gulf Oil Spill

Posted on June 30th, 2010 by macaoidh

President Obama and Vice President Biden have been to the Gulf Coast on the taxpayers’ dime to see the damage of the oil spill on what seem like countless occasions, but it appears that a Congressional delegation wishing to get a look of their own won’t qualify. And the leader of that delegation, Louisiana congressman [...]
