AP Exclusive: Reid Got $1M in Land Sale - windfall on a Las Vegas land sale even though he hadn't personally owned the property [ GOP HARDBALL TIME] Post Date: 2006-10-11 14:53:21 by TLBSHOW
2 Comments
Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid collected a $1.1 million windfall on a Las Vegas land sale even though he hadn't personally owned the property for three years, property deeds show. In the process, Reid did not disclose to Congress an earlier sale in which he transferred his land to a company created by a friend and took a financial stake in that company, according to records and interviews. The Nevada Democrat's deal was engineered by Jay Brown, a longtime friend and former casino lawyer whose name surfaced in a major political bribery trial this summer and in other prior organized crime investigations. He's never been charged with wrongdoing _ except for a 1981 federal securities ...

GOP Leaders Seek Probe of Berger Papers A group of House Republicans called Wednesday for a congressional investigation into the improper handling of classified documents by President Clinton's national security adviser, Sandy Berger. Berger admitted last year that he deliberately took classified documents out of the National Archives in 2003 and destroyed some of them at his office. He pleaded guilty in federal court to one charge of unauthorized removal and retention of classified material and was fined $50,000. Ten lawmakers led by House Armed Services Chairman Duncan Hunter, R- Calif., and Judiciary Chairman James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., released a letter calling for the House ...

When The Washington Monthly reached me at my office recently, a voice on the other side of the line meekly asked if I would ever consider writing an article supporting the radical proposition that Republicans should get their brains beaten in this fall. Count me in! was my chipper response. I also seem to remember muttering something about preferring an assortment of Bourbon Street hookers running the Southern Baptist Convention to having this lot of Republicans controlling Americas checkbook for the next two years. Maybe thats because right-wing, knuckle-dragging Republicans like myself took over Congress in 1994 promising to balance the budget and limit ...
McCain slams Bill and Hillary but good - "I would remind Senator (Hillary) Clinton and other Democrats critical of the Bush administration's policies that the framework agreement her husband's administration negotiated was a failure," Post Date: 2006-10-10 15:19:30 by TLBSHOW

Republican Sen. John McCain on Tuesday accused former President Clinton, the husband of his potential 2008 White House rival, of failing to act in the 1990s to stop North Korea from developing nuclear weapons. "I would remind Senator (Hillary) Clinton and other Democrats critical of the Bush administration's policies that the framework agreement her husband's administration negotiated was a failure," McCain said at a news conference after a campaign appearance for Republican Senate candidate Mike Bouchard. "The Koreans received millions and millions in energy assistance. They've diverted millions of dollars of food assistance to their military," he said. Democrats ...
Voters may be too embarrassed to vote Republican in November Post Date: 2006-10-09 22:23:04 by TLBSHOW

All month Republicans will be pushing the line that former Rep. Mark Foley's dirty e-mails are an isolated episode that shouldn't doom the entire Grand Old Party. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has said American society has a double standard when it comes to inappropriate or unlawful sexual behavior by lawmakers. It is wrong that Democrats get away with things while Republicans don't. It is Gingrich who is wrong this time. Voters may indeed leave the Republican Party in enough numbers to count. And they won't do it in outrage over Foley's alcohol-induced instant messages or unbecoming behavior by other lawmakers. No, voters will leave out of sheer embarrassment. Consider the history ...
Clinton "Legacy" Grows: North Korea Goes Nuclear Post Date: 2006-10-09 04:39:02 by alwaysontheright

By John W. Lillpop Although a 4.2 seismic event detected on Sunday has not yet been confirmed by U.S. officials as a nuclear test, it seems safe to assume that North Korean leader Kim Jong Il has finally arrived. Go here: Thus, the Agreed Framework agreement with North Korea is the latest initiative from the Clinton administration that actually makes the world less safe and more lethal. Indeed, the Clinton legacy now includes the mind-numbing refusal to eliminate Osama bin Laden when given the opportunity, and the incredibly misguided handling of Kim Jong Il. Thank goodness for the 22nd amendment to the Constitution. Without that restriction in place, Clinton ...

Foley: The Final Straw In 1994, pollster Frank Luntz helped congressional Republicans sweep into power. Now he says the G.O.P. has become everything it once swore to destroy By FRANK LUNTZ Posted Saturday, Oct. 07, 2006 Had enough? America has. Anyone who reads the polls accurately and honestly will acknowledge that the Republican Party is likely to lose control of the House of Representatives, the so-called "People's House." The Democrats maintained control for 40 years. The Republicans, just 12. What went wrong? Why do Democrats finally appear to be heading toward electoral success and Republicans back into the political wilderness? In a word, fatigue. Americans are tired ...

The Revolution Eats Its Own By Stirling Newberry | bio While many have written of the smell of new revolution in the air. The Foley-Hastert scandal shows an older revolution eating its children - that is, the "Gingrich revolution". What makes the scandal powerful is that it is really three scandals - the first is the sex predator scandal of Foley and pages, the second is the cover up scandal which includes Hastert and the FBI, the third is also a sex and cover up scandal, but it is the one which is the glue that holds the entire roving meltdown together. It about Gay Republicans. Specifically Gay Republicans. That's Gay Republicans. The scandal which has turned the entire ...

Tens of thousands of people have marched through the Venezuelan capital, Caracas, in support of the main opposition candidate, Manuel Rosales. Mr Rosales will face President Hugo Chavez in December's presidential poll. The march, which filled the main avenues of the city centre, was the biggest opposition rally Venezuela has seen since early 2004. Then, protesters made an unsuccessful bid to oust Mr Chavez from power in a recall referendum. Chance to unite Young and old took to the streets to throw their weight behind the campaign of Mr Rosales, a middle-class Social Democrat who governs the state of Zulia, on the Colombian border. Many claimed that they were seeking liberty and ...

Starting Monday... Investigate these closeted staffers Saturday, October 07, 2006 I am very concerned what these CLOSETED high level staffers have done. This site first reported on the danger Kirk Fordham was to gays OVER TWO YEARS AGO. Before anyone gets out the violins for poor Kirk, remember he was the money chief for US Senator Mel Martinez's campaign. You know Mel, he's the one who equaled marriage equality with living under "totalitarian rule in Cuba." It's not that Kirk is gay that got him in trouble. It's that he was hiding in a closet and facilitating Mark Foley's actions. Well, America, I want other closeted staffers questioned. I want all entities investigating this ...
If voters let pass the opportunity in the November election to take Congress out of Republican hands, America will experience a more rapid descent into a police state Post Date: 2006-10-07 13:29:11 by TLBSHOW

In one month, we will know if Americans understand the danger of the Bush administration's fanatical preoccupation with terrorism combined with one-party control of the executive and legislative branches. If voters let pass the opportunity in the November election to take Congress out of Republican hands, America will experience a more rapid descent into a police state. The Bush administration's response to 9-11, an event about which we have incomplete and unreliable information, has been to trample important civil liberties such as habeas corpus, the attorney-client privilege, privacy, due process and prohibition against self-incrimination. Today, "detainees" incarcerated by ...

A new Republican television ad links Democratic congressional candidate Bruce Braley to the Communist Party and says hes supported by ultra liberals. The ad, which began running Friday, prompted the Braley campaign to label it a joke. The ad says Braley was endorsed by the Council for a Livable World and was called a peace candidate by the Communist Party. The council, the new ad says, advocates huge defense cuts and has a leader that once proposed negotiating with the Taliban. It concludes by saying Braleys support from ultra liberals shows hes out of touch with Iowa. Jeff Giertz, a Braley ...

Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, in town for a fund-raiser for Sen. Rick Santorum, had a close encounter with a large group of anti-Republican protesters as he was making his way to the Duquesne Club, Downtown. It was about 4:15 yesterday when Mr. Bush met up with the protesters near the corner of Liberty and Sixth avenues. The protesters were marching to join other pickets already gathered in front of the exclusive club, a little more than a block away at 325 Sixth Ave. Protesters said Gov. Bush blew them a kiss, acknowledging the crowd of about 30 chanting pickets that was made up of United Steelworkers and members of Uprise Counter Recruitment, a tour traveling through 22 cities to support ...

Republican Disease By Philip Klein If a successful steakhouse stopped selling beef and substituted stale vegan sandwiches as part of a strategy to increase its customer base, the restaurant wouldn't remain in business very long. Yet for some reason, the Republican Party has adopted precisely this strategy for governing. Instead of rewarding its loyal voters with the limited government they were promised, the Republican Party has decided to increase its voter base by offering the stale ideas of big government liberalism. This tactic is difficult to understand given that in modern midterm elections, voter turnout has hovered around 40 percent, meaning that winning is about having an ...

WASHINGTON - A key aide to presidential political strategist Karl Rove resigned Friday after a congressional report listed hundreds of contacts between disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff and the White House. Susan Ralston, special assistant to President Bush, submitted a resignation letter to him less than five weeks before congressional elections in which corruption and scandal are emerging as major issues. "She did not want to be a distraction to the White House at such an important time and so we have accepted her resignation," White House deputy press secretary Dana Perino said. "We support her decision and consider the matter closed," Perino said. Abramoff has ...

As in the first 100 hours the House meets after Democrats in her fondest wish win control in the Nov. 7 midterm elections and Pelosi takes the gavel as the first Madam Speaker in history.

Time remaining until 100 hours: Raise the minimum wage to $7.25 an hour, maybe in one step. Cut the ...

Breaking as we await the Hastert news congerence. Fox reports that the entire country is riveted by this matter and it has "blown away" all other issues for the upcoming mid-terms. I have a hard time believing this manufactured scandal is having this effect, but Fox seems to be shooting straight on this. Perhaps the dealy in the Hastert new conference is due to furious fighting over whether he needs to resign as speaker today. With no other candidate standing-by, Fox notes ...
