The last thing I want this blog to turn into is all Obama all the time (hah!). That's going to be hard in 2012, but we really need to keep focused on the insurance policy, the House and Senate. Contrary to what others are saying, there...
There's a very interesting article in The Providence Phoenix (h/t Hummel Report) regarding plans by the Republican Party in Rhode Island to regain relevance: The Rhode Island Republican Party's reputation for ineptitude is, by any reasonable measure, richly deserved. Sure, the party held the governor's office for much of...
And I just saw them to help celebrate their 65th wedding anniversary. I know, it's the White House trying to shut me down again. Thanks to a reader for alerting me to this block he now gets at work: ...
Ever since Independent and former Republican Linc Chafee was elected Governor of my home State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations last fall, Chafee has implemented an interesting twist on states rights by refusing to participate in federal immigration enforcement efforts. Now Chafee has taken it one...
Still no verdict. Via Chicago Sun Times Blago Blog: Onto day 10. Former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich will have to wait until at least next week to hear from the jury debating his fate on 20 counts charging him with corruption, fraud and extortion. The jury ended its ninth...

Yes, "drill baby drill" will not increase the supply of oil this month, but if we had been drilling baby drilling the past two and one-half years, instead of stifling production almost everywhere, we would not need to be releasing our strategic petroleum reserves. Via...
While I’m certainly not a fan, especially of his policies like the finally ending QE2, I was pleasantly surprised to see Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke offer up a sliver of straight talk on President Obama’s record breaking deficits earlier this week. Prodded to respond to the...

Apparently Legal Insurrection has a LinkedIn account. I discovered this tonight. I must have forgotten about it. It's somewhat spooky, because when I signed in to respond to an invitation, it started suggesting people to me, and these are people I actually knew. And not just...
... "We got bin Laden, and our troops will be out early in my second term if you reelect me, because we got bin Laden, and I never will forget the sacrifice of the troops who helped me get bin Laden, USA USA USA!"...
I was afraid this would happen. Drawn into the Blago saga once again, unable to resist now that the jury just finished its 8th day of deliberations without a verdict. The Chicago Sun-Times' Blago Blog reports: Rod Blagojevich's jury ends day 8 of their discussions. The panel of 11 women...
