Dick Armey Backs John Boehner for House Speaker
Post Date: 2010-10-21 12:12:02 by Brian S
1 Comments
Dick Armey, the former House majority leader and a key leader within the conservative Tea Party movement, tells Politics Daily that he has full confidence in House Minority Leader John Boehner to be the next speaker of the House if Republicans retake control of the chamber in November. "I think he deserves his right to be tested on his own grounds and on his own terms and not be held accountable for the failings of the leadership team that went before him," Armey said. "He has proven himself to be a constitutional, small government conservative with reliable initiative in the past. I think he'll be that in the future if given a chance." Conservative critics of ...

Even If Democrats Win, Pelosi Faces Opposition To Remain As Speaker
Post Date: 2010-10-21 12:10:00 by Brian S
1 Comments
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's mathematical grip on political power is getting slippery. With House Democrats already bracing for steep losses in the midterm elections, at least five of Pelosi's colleagues have announced in the past two weeks that they would not support her remaining as speaker, should Democrats retain the majority. More than a dozen others have told local and national media that they would consider backing a different Democrat. Pelosi refuses to discuss any outcome next month other than Democrats staying in power and her still wielding the speaker's gavel. "Would anybody ever go up to somebody during a game and say, 'What are you going to do if you ...

Special Report: Conservative Donors Let Christine O’Donnell Sink
Post Date: 2010-10-21 11:54:11 by Brian S

Christine O'Donnell, the outspoken GOP candidate for Senate in Delaware, has a money problem. Her shocking victory in the Delaware Republican primary was a breakthrough for the conservative Tea Party movement that has up-ended U.S. politics. But while her grassroots fund-raising has been more than respectable, O'Donnell's tense relations with mainstream Republicans and her floundering campaign have led bigtime donors to shun her, albeit quietly. Their reluctance to open their checkbooks underlines the GOP's recent tightrope act: the Tea Party's emergence as a major force has energized the conservative base and bolstered Republican prospects in the November 2 election. ...

Tea Party 'Founder' Slams Palin, Gingrich; Says Movement Hijacked By Forces It Was Protesting

A financial blogger and ex-CEO credited with being one of the original "founders" of the Tea Party has come out against the movement, saying it has been hijacked by the very people it was protesting and is now obsessed with "guns, gays and God." In a "message" to the Tea Party Wednesday, Karl Denninger declared that he "ought to sue" anyone who uses the Tea Party name "for defamation." "Yeah, that's a joke," he writes. "But so are you. All of you. Especially Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, Bob Barr, and douchebag groups such as the 'Tea Party Patriots.'" Denninger writes: "Tea Party my ass. This was nothing ...

Media Matters, the liberal activist group that wages a rhetorical war against Fox News Channel and others in the conservative press, will announce on Wednesday the receipt of a $1 million donation from the philanthropist George Soros. In a statement obtained by The Caucus, the organization says it plans to use the money to intensify its efforts to hold the Fox host Glenn Beck and others on the cable news channel accountable for their reporting. “Fox has transformed itself into a 24-7 G.O.P. attack machine, dividing Americans through fear-mongering and falsehoods and undermining the legitimacy of our government for partisan political ends,” the group will say in the statement, ...

Karl Rove tells Der Spiegel that the tea party is 'not sophisticated.' Close By ANDY BARR | 10/19/10 12:46 PM EDT Karl Rove credits the tea party with bringing new energy to the right but says that when you take a look at the grass-roots movement, it is “not sophisticated.” “I meet a lot of tea partiers as I go around the country, and they are amazing people,” said the ex-adviser to former President George W. Bush in an interview with Der Spiegel. But structurally, Rove said the tea party has little in common with the Reagan Revolution that has powered the conservative movement for decades. “It was also a ...

NAACP Releases Report Accusing Tea Party Groups Of Links To Bigots

Three months ago in Kansas City, the NAACP first raised charges of racism within the tea party movement. Today a report is being released accusing tea party groups of providing platforms to anti-Semites and other bigots. “These groups and individuals are out there, and we ignore them at our own peril,” said NAACP President Benjamin Todd Jealous in a statement announcing the report. “They are speaking at tea party events, recruiting at rallies, and in some cases remain in the tea party leadership itself.” The 94-page report is being released by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in a teleconference today.In July, NAACP delegates passed a ...

Stimulus Opponents Ron Paul, Scott Brown Provide Lesson In Hypocrisy

Senator Scott Brown and Congressman Ron Paul are among the Republican Party's most vocal opponents of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, but have worked actively behind the scenes to secure stimulus funding for projects in their own states. A new report by the Center for Public Integrity provides documented evidence that the two lawmakers privately view stimulus funding as a tool for encouraging economic growth and development. They aren't alone.According the report, Stimulating Hypocrisy: Scores of Recovery Act Opponents Sought Money Out of Public View, Tea Party favorite Scott Brown wrote a letter of support in favor of using stimulus funds to expand broadband ...

As G.O.P. Seeks Spending Cuts, Details Are Scarce

WASHINGTON — In Indiana, Representative Mike Pence, the No. 3 House Republican, complains about “runaway federal spending on steroids.” In Alaska, the Republican candidate for the Senate, Joe Miller, talks about “out of control spending.” And in Arizona, Jesse Kelly, a Republican hoping to oust Representative Gabrielle Giffords, says, “We’re spending our way into bankruptcy.” If there is a single message unifying Republican candidates this year, it is a call to grab hold of the federal checkbook, slam it closed and begin to slash spending. To bolster their case that action is needed, Republicans are citing major legislation over the four years ...

Justice Clarence Thomas's Wife Calls Anita Hill, Offers Her `Olive Branch'

Oct. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Virginia Thomas, the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, said she recently called Anita Hill, whose sexual harassment allegations almost derailed his 1991 U.S. Supreme Court nomination. ABC News reported that Thomas left a voice mail earlier this month seeking an apology from Hill, now a professor at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts. In a statement released yesterday by Brandeis, Hill called the message “inappropriate.” “I have no intention of apologizing because I testified truthfully about my experience and I stand by that testimony,” she said. Hill told ABC that at first she thought the call was a hoax. She contacted campus police, ...

Secretive Republican Donors Are Planning Ahead By KATE ZERNIKE A secretive network of Republican donors is heading to the Palm Springs area for a long weekend in January, but it will not be to relax after a hard-fought election — it will be to plan for the next one. Koch Industries, the longtime underwriter of libertarian causes from the Cato Institute in Washington to the ballot initiative that would suspend California’s landmark law capping greenhouse gases, is planning a confidential meeting at the Rancho Las Palmas Resort and Spa to, as an invitation says, “develop strategies to counter the most severe threats facing our free society and outline a vision of how ...

Jobless Benefits About To Crash

With no end in sight to the nation’s high unemployment, the government program to help the jobless is heading for a crash. And with Democrats and Republicans now divided over what used to be routine extensions of unemployment insurance benefits, there’s little prospect anytime soon for the sort of costly and complex rescue that’s necessary, according to one of the program’s champions. “I am worried,” said Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.), who got some temporary unemployment fixes in the $787 billion economic stimulus bill. “It is going to take a degree of bipartisanship ... that we haven’t seen.” The sour economy, with unemployment stuck above 9 ...

Democrat Says He's Heard Pelosi Won't Run Again For Speaker

A House Democratic lawmaker said late last week that he'd heard Nancy Pelosi wouldn't seek another term as Speaker. Rep. Mike McIntyre (D-N.C.) said that not only would he not back Pelosi (D-Calif.) for Speaker again, but also that he'd heard she would not seek another term in that position. "From what we're hearing, she's probably not going to run for Speaker again," McIntyre told WWAY-TV in North Carolina. "And if she does, I'm confident she's going to have opposition, and I look forward to supporting that opposition." The seven-term centrist Democrat is facing Republican Ilario Pantano in one of the toughest reelection challenges of his ...

Republicans Wrestle With How They Would Govern If They Win Back Majority

Republicans are beginning to publicly wrestle with how they would govern if they capture control of Congress two weeks from now in the midterm elections. As polls show the GOP within striking distance of winning back the House and the Senate, Republican lawmakers are facing competing pressures to either work constructively to help govern or to live up to their electoral promises. One senior Republican, Sen. Judd Gregg (R-N.H.), on Tuesday questioned whether the party's approach to one of the biggest issues in the election, the new healthcare reform law, is a good one. "I don't think starving or repealing [the healthcare law] is probably the best approach here," Gregg ...

(Newser) – If even the worst Democratic fears play out next month and they wind up losing both the House and Senate, Eugene Robinson sees a bright silver lining for the party. Conservatives and Tea Party activists will suddenly find themselves in government instead of in the peanut gallery, and our "tidal" politics will begin drifting against them. If they work with President Obama, they'll be seen as traitors. "I expect obstruction," writes Robinson in the Washington Post. "That would be bad for the country, but it would be a gift to a White House seeking to regain its political footing. Every time Obama reached out to Capitol Hill and had his hand ...

One week after he declared that he and his wife were "the most disclosed couple in Alaska politics" and that he would no longer answer media questions about his past, GOP Senate candidate and Tea Partier Joe Miller acknowledged on CNN last night that he was disciplined for ethics violations while working at the Fairbanks North Star Borough in 2008.  "The event in question is something that happened during my time off. So it was during my lunch hour," he said. He was working as an attorney at the borough at the same time as he was working to oust the then-chair of the state GOP. The Anchorage Daily News has the details on what happened: A ...

GOP Lawmaker: Illegal Immigrants Are Like ‘Hitler’, Should Be Shot

Georgia's Republican State Rep. John Yates has a position on immigration that almost nobody would agree with: he wants US border agents empowered to "shoot to kill." Asked to justify his position, Yates recently told a reporter in Atlanta that illegal immigrants are enemies of America who must be dealt with severely. "Stopping Hitler was worth the price," the 89-year-old lawmaker said. Speaking at a Georgia candidate forum last week, a moderator asked for ideas on dealing with illegal immigration in Georgia. The state shares borders with Alabama, Florida, Tennessee and the Carolinas. Yates began by saying he favors a tax on money sent from Georgia to Mexico, being ...

Palin Teases Reno Crowd About Presidential Run

RENO, Nev. (AP) -- Sarah Palin launched a two-week run of tea party rallies Monday leading up to the election and teased supporters about a possible presidential run for herself, saying "we can see 2012 from our house." The remark came as the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee - who has not publicly committed to seeking higher office - kicked off the 15-day Tea Party Express coast-to-coast campaign tour, hoping to capitalize on government discontent and unify conservatives before the Nov. 2 election. Headlining a rally outside county GOP headquarters, Palin told more than 500 people that common sense is an "endangered species" in Washington, D.C., and they should ...

Fiorina Claims ‘Previously Scheduled Commitment’ During Palin Event

Is Sarah Palin's star beginning to fade? If you believe the most recent polls -- and the attitude of California's Republican candidates for office -- it may well be. California GOP nominee for Senate Carly Fiorina certainly isn't acting like she's proud to have an endorsement from the Alaska governor-turned-Fox News pundit. Fiorina and Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman skipped an event Saturday where Palin campaigned on their behalf. Politico noted last week:The event slated for Oct. 16 in Anaheim is being widely promoted by the Republican National Committee and conservatives in the state, but neither gubernatorial nominee Meg Whitman nor Senate nominee Carly ...

Boo! Halloween For Democrats Comes Early With Spooky Poll Numbers

With Halloween approaching, it’s not goblins and witches and ghosts that Democrats have to fear. It’s mere numbers – poll numbers. And for majority Democrats in Congress and President Obama, those numbers are very spooky indeed. National Public Radio’s “Battleground Survey” out Friday finds that “Republicans have a significant edge in November in competitive U.S. congressional districts.” The number of House districts considered to be battlegrounds has increased from about 70 in June to nearly 100 in October – the vast majority held by Democrats. Similarly, the Rothenberg Political Report puts the number of House seats in play at 100 – ...

After saying she's 'fighting her own party,' O'Donnell turns to GOP for help Appearing on ABC Sunday, two more Republicans followed Karl Rove's lead by using the term "nut" to describe Tea Party candidates like Christine O'Donnell, the Republican Senate candidate from Delaware. Matthew Dowd, former chief Republican strategist for the Bush-Cheney 2004 campaign, explained that voters are looking to candidates that might have a screw loose because they are so frustrated with the establishment. "In the middle of a time when the country is so angry at Washington, they don't want the Democrats, they turn to candidates that are so outside that many of ...

Anti-Defamation League Smears Peace Groups, Jewish Voice for Peace On Top 10

Under Abraham Foxman’s leadership, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is an embarrassment. It calls itself the “nation’s premier civil rights/human relations agency,” dedicated to fighting anti-Semitism and all forms of bigotry and protecting the civil rights for all. But there’s a critical exception– “all” does not include those it considers a threat to the Israeli government. This is a terrible shame, in part, because the ADL  (especially in local offices) does so many good things- speaking out against bullying, criticizing a lawmaker’s “shoot to kill” attitude towards immigrants, supporting the right of gays and lesbian to serve ...
