Watching coverage of the Massachusetts senatorial election Tuesday night, I wondered if MSNBC was getting ready to cut off its cable signal to the state. Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow, positively enraged that Massachusetts dared to elect a Republican, delivered two hours of nonstop bilious rage toward the state's voters, calling them "irrational" and "teabaggers," engaged in "a total divorce from reality," and hinting that they're vicious racists to boot. If you watched CNN or Fox News last night, you got a balanced analysis of how Republican Scott Brown pulled off the political upset of the century (or, if you prefer, how Democrat Martha Coakley ...
One Year Ago- George W. Bush, The Worlds Greatest Liberator Since World War II Leaves Office

It’ seems like forever. A year ago President George W. Bush left the White House. Since that time the unemployment has nearly doubled since the Bush years, the national deficit has tripled, government has grown in leaps and bounds, and the current president has blamed his predecessor for every problem he has encountered. President Obama even blamed George Bush for the Coakley loss yesterday in Massachusetts.

Leigh Scott at Big Hollywood: “Of course he [President Bush] had his faults, by leftist standards. He didn’t send his press secretary out to attack news organizations that were unfavorable to him. He didn’t bow before foreign kings and emperors.” Great article looking back on President Bush and the unfair treatment heaped upon him by the MSM, the entirety of the Left, and way too many on the right. I think, as the years go by, you’ll see more-and-more posts like this one. And they’ll start showing up from the strangest places. Like from Liberals. Like this article from Jeffrey Scott Shapiro,who served on John Kerry’s legal team in 2004: “As Obama ...

Dream up a gargantuan backlash against Barack Obama’s left-wing gospel, and you still could not invent the notion of a relatively unknown, conservative Scott Brown knocking off an Obama-endorsed, liberal, female attorney in liberal Massachusetts — in a race to fill the seat once held by Ted Kennedy.
If a liberal senatorial candidate can be defeated in Massachusetts, eleven months after the Obama hope-and-change blitzkrieg, it is hard to believe that any liberal seat is necessarily safe anywhere.
So the real story is not a populist backlash, but a growing populist backlash, whose ultimate nature and magnitude are as yet unknown. What’s going on?

With the nation still mired in a deep recession that has millions of Americans experiencing economic ruin, the Obama administration marked Barack Obama's one-year anniversary as president by displaying a photograph of First Lady Michelle Obama wearing a $2,763 designer coat as the 'White House photo of the day' on the front page of WhiteHouse.gov. First Lady Michelle Obama greets a young visitor touring the White House during a surprise visit in the Blue Room with family dog Bo on the anniversary of the inauguration, Jan. 20, 2010.

Hero Democrat Senator Jim Webb Urges a Halt to Senate Health Care Votes [Full Thread]
Post Date: 2010-01-21 09:00:48 by war

Responding to the Republican victory in Massachusetts, Senator Jim Webb, Democrat of Virginia, is calling on Senate leaders to suspend any votes on the Democrats’ health care legislation until the winner in the special Senate election, Scott Brown, is sworn into office. In a statement, Mr. Webb, who voted for the health care bill in December, congratulated Mr. Brown on his victory and said he looked forward to working with him. But he also said Democrats must take note of the wider implications of the election results. “In many ways the campaign in Massachusetts became a referendum not only on health care reform but also on the openness and integrity of our government ...

TRENTON -- Gov. Chris Christie began his term today by testing the limits of his power, issuing an executive order curbing political donations by labor unions that Democrats and union leaders insisted would not withstand legal challenges. The executive order was one of eight signed by the Republican governor as he used his first full day to live up to campaign promises, settle scores and lay down markers of authority. Christie also tore into former Gov. Jon Corzine for leaving a "final parting gift" of an undisclosed $1 billion shortfall in the current state budget -- a claim disputed by Corzine. Christie said the executive orders will spur economic growth by halting unfunded ...
TEN MYTHS ABOUT THE BUSH TAX CUTS—AND THE FACTS [Full Thread]

Myth #1: Tax revenues remain low. Fact: Tax revenues are above the historical average, even after the tax cuts. Myth #2: The Bush tax cuts substantially reduced 2006 revenues and expanded the budget deficit. Fact: Nearly all of the 2006 budget deficit resulted from additional spending above the baseline. Myth #3: Supply-side economics assumes that all tax cuts immediately pay for themselves. Fact: It assumes replenishment of some but not necessarily all lost revenues. Myth #4: Capital gains tax cuts do not pay for themselves. Fact: Capital gains tax revenues doubled following the 2003 tax cut. Myth #5: The Bush tax cuts are to blame for the projected long-term budget deficits. ...
Liberal Seattle paper admits Bush tax cuts worked

Seemingly surprised at its own conclusion, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer has uncharacteristically confessed President Bush's tax cuts have contributed to the recent economic upsurge. The paper, noting the economy grew at a blistering 8.2 percent annual rate in the third quarter, said in an editorial yesterday, "We even think it's fair to credit the president's economic policies – including the tax cuts – for the recent economic gains. (Did we really say that?)" The editorial then presented a caveat to the good economic news, however, its recommendation also had a conservative ring to it, essentially urging the Republican-led Congress to reduce spending. ...

Former Gov. Sarah Palin will announce today that she's hitting the campaign trail for Republicans -- including her former running mate John McCain. Palin, who did not campaign in last year's governor's races or in yesterday's Senate race in Massachusetts, has committed to contests in three states, including two Republican primaries, an aide said. She'll campaign in Texas for Gov. Rick Perry, who faces a primary challenge from Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison; she'll appear in Arizona for Senator John McCain, who faces a challenge from the right; and she'll appear in Minnesota for Rep. Michelle Bachmann, a conservative firebrand who has emerged as a national figure. ...

Erroll Southers, President Obama's nominee to lead the Transportation Security Administration, has withdrawn his name from consideration, the White House said Wednesday. Southers's nomination had faced fierce opposition from Republicans since revelations that he may have misled Congress about an incident in the late 1980s involving a background check of the boyfriend of his ex-wife. As The Eye first reported in November, Southers told senators that he asked a co-worker's husband who worked for the San Diego Police Department at the time to run a background check on his ex-wife's boyfriend. The incident did little to stop his confirmation by the Senate Homeland Security ...

It's almost hard to believe but Wednesday, January 20 marks exactly one year since President Bush left the White House. During his last public ceremony as commander in chief, he was booed by thousands of Americans who simutaneously cheered for Barack Obama as he was sworn into office on the steps of the U.S. Capitol. Except for a June 17 speech in Erie, Pennsylvania in which Bush defended his policies and criticized Obama’s, the former president has been remarkably silent about his successor. He has not fired back at Obama despite the new administration inappropriately blaming Bush for all of their failures. One year after taking office however, Obama has done a total reversal ...
Barney Frank Deals Potential Death Blow to Obamacare

Rep. Barney Frank is not a wobbly moderate in a marginal district, but a liberal Democrat who has been supportive of the health care push. And that's why this statement below, which essentially rules out all of the options being discussed for pushing through Obamacare, deals a potentially fatal blow to the legislation.
The following was read on MSNBC by Rachel Maddow, and I transcribed it off the screen:
“I have two reactions to the election in Massachusetts. One, I am disappointed. Two, I feel strongly that the Democratic majority in Congress must respect the process and make no effort to bypass the electoral results. If Martha Coakley had won, I believe we could have worked out a ...

This special election came about because we lost someone very dear to Massachusetts, and to America. Senator Ted Kennedy was a tireless and big-hearted public servant, and for most of my lifetime was a force like no other in this state. His name will always command the affection and respect by the people of Massachusetts, and the same goes for his wife Vicki. There’s no replacing a man like that, but tonight I honor his memory, and I pledge my very best to be a worthy successor.

The Obama administration has intervened on behalf of an openly homosexual teenager in a bullying lawsuit against his high school – and the Justice Department is claiming a law meant to ban sex discrimination also protects homosexual students from intolerance based on sexual orientation. Jacob, 14, former student of Gregory B. Jarvis Junior/Senior High School in the Mohawk Central School District in New York, claims he was teased and endured threats and name-calling by classmates because he dyed his hair blue and pink and wears make-up and nail polish. According to the Justice Department's Jan. 14 motion to intervene, Jacob "engages in physical expressions that are ...
GOP's Brown wins Mass. Senate seat in epic upset
Post Date: 2010-01-19 21:48:24 by WhiteSands

BOSTON – In an epic upset in liberal Massachusetts, Republican Scott Brown rode a wave of voter anger to defeat Democrat Martha Coakley in a U.S. Senate election Tuesday that left President Barack Obama's health care overhaul in doubt and marred the end of his first year in office. The loss by the once-favored Coakley for the seat that the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy held for nearly half a century signaled big political problems for the president's party this fall when House, Senate and gubernatorial candidates are on the ballot nationwide. More immediately, Brown will become the 41st Republican in the 100-member Senate, which could allow the GOP to block the ...

We’ll miss you, President Bush It may be the fashion of the day to despise him, but history will smile upon George W. Bush and the achievements of his eight year tenure in the Oval Office. By Jonathan Zappala Thursday, January 22nd, 2009, 12:00 am As the 43rd president of the United States, George W. Bush had both the highest and lowest approval ratings in the history of the office. In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, he had ratings of more than 90 percent. In recent years, his rating fluctuated around a third of that number. Many people think he will be unfavorably remembered after leaving office – but what president in the past 50 years can say he ...

Webb is steamed at Senator Chuck Schumer:The senior Senator from New York has joined the ranks of Janeane Garofalo, Bill Maher, Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews in insulting Americans who exercise their rights in a Democratic manner. These stalwarts of Liberalism claim to uphold fiercely the rights of all, unless you hold a position that does not suit them.

The American public has tasted Obama’s Marxist-Lite and is rejecting it with decisive force. The special election in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is just one case in point, but a stunning case it is. Scott Brown leads Martha Coakley by 5% in exit polls in the first hours of the day. And this on the vigil of the first anniversary of Obama’s ascension to power. Indeed, Massachusetts residents are generally more gleeful than they have ever been at the thought that for the first time in 50 years, they have the chance to participate in a free election, to choose their own U.S. Senator and free themselves from the dominance and manipulation of the Kennedy family. The candidate ...

Scott Brown, the Republican candidate for the Massachusetts Senate seat up for election on Tuesday, is filing a criminal complaint against the Massachusetts Democratic Party over a flier claiming he’s against giving emergency contraception to rape victims. The flier reportedly says “1,736 women were raped in Massachusetts in 2008. Scott Brown wants hospitals to turn them all away,” according to Greg Sargent’s blog. Dan Winslow, counsel for the Scott Brown for U.S. Senate campaign, held a media availability at 4 p.m. Saturday to announce the criminal complaint resulting from a recent mailing paid for and sent by the Massachusetts Democratic Party, according to a press ...
