The Day After
3 November 2010 | National Politics | 18 Comments
With Republicans picking up a whopping 61 seats or more in the House of Representatives as well as six senate seats, it’s a pretty satisfying morning even if it looks like Gerry “Boss” Connolly is going to be around for another two years. We’ve got a lot to be happy about as the Obama agenda is effectively […]

Guest Post by Sanford D. Horn
Any jackass can safely predict Sen. Richard Shelby (R-AL) and Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) will win reelection on Tuesday. I’m here to make the tough calls in as many races as possible. The GOP will build on the momentum of last fall’s victories by Gov. Chris Christie in my home […]

It Can Only Make Sense In ObamaLand
27 September 2010 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens, Crime | 18 Comments
I suppose it was only a matter of time before countries trying to solve their domestic problems by exporting their uneducated, disaffected and criminally-minded citizens was going to propose something like this. Just what might countries like Mexico propose we do with their citizens who have illegally come to our country and then were convicted […]

Guest Post by Sanford D. Horn
Leave it to Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) and his cohorts to politicize a Defense Department budget bill by linking it to his back door, de facto amnesty DREAM Act.
At a time when support for illegal aliens can not be found beyond the borders of Capitol Hill, save for such far-left […]

3 September 2010 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens, Crime, Prince William County | 22 Comments
As if the sordid tale of Carlos Martinelly-Montano killing a nun wasn’t shocking enough, now comes a story from the Washington Post about how instead of deporting this habitual drunken driving illegal alien, the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement instead provided him with an Employment Authorization Card and set him free.

15 August 2010 | National Politics | 9 Comments
After getting lavish amounts of free promotional consideration from the leftist mainstream media which boosted their reported membership to the stratosphere, the Coffee Party USA is falling apart before they’ve even held their first national convention, according to their own members.
