Reputed neo-Nazi J.T. Ready apparently killed himself and his family yesterday. There is one thing the major media outlets (MNSBC, L.A. Times, Arizona Republic) reporting on the story either fail to mention or bury. Ready was planning to run for Sheriff as a Democrat (h/t reader...
The Lunch Pail Republicans have formally endorsed Dick Lugar. The group was formed in early January 2012 specifically to fight Indiana's right to work law which was signed into law in February. The Lunch Pail Republicans are funded by a union PAC, as detailed in this entry at...
From reader Bob: Since I have sons who are into the "import scene" with Japanese cars and not necessarily concerned with politics, I was surprised to see a late "twentysomething" driver who apparently has recognized what was delivered isn't what was promised. Photo taken while stopped in Longmont...
While Richard Mourdock is rising, don't count Dick Lugar out. He's throwing everything he has at Mourdock this week, each day multiple new accusations. A poll just out shows Lugar with a two point lead, via National Journal: Sen. Richard Lugar and Indiana Treasurer Richard Mourdock...
As expected, Newt suspended the campaign today. Here's the full video (via ElectAd). If you want, jump ahead to 3:45 when he starts giving shout outs to other candidates and then turns to his view on the campaign and the future. Money line (17:45): "This is a choice...
I admit it, I didn't see this explanation coming. Or maybe I did, I repeatedly have said "it doesn't add up" as to why Elizabeth Warren claimed minority status on her law association self-reporting. And it doesn't: Democratic Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren, fending off questions about whether she...
This is the third and last in a series examining Dick Lugar's failure on policy towards Iran, which consistently exhibited wishful thinking about appeasing the regime in the hope the Iranians would negotiate in good faith over their missile and nuclear programs, and their export of...
There is some really good front page imagery going on these days. There oughta be a prize given out for it. Via Zeke Miller at BuzzFeed (h/t BuzzFeedAndrew), The NY Post weighs in on Obama's trip to Afghanistan. ...
There is an active effort by Elizabeth Warren's campaign to distract from the real issue regarding Warren's claim of Native American status during the mid-80s to mid-90s, when she was moving from one law school to another up the food chain until she reached Harvard...
Jennifer Rubin, the "right" blogger at The Washington Post, gained fame throughout the primaries by obsessively skewering each not-Romney who rose in the polls, even not-Romneys like Rick Santorum she had praised when convenient to use against another not-Romney. Because of her platform at WaPo and her...
From reader "Joe" (or was it "Tom"?) who asked not to use even his real first name because "I'd like my children to keep their playmates": Saw these on the back of an SUV on Bainbridge Island, Washington. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bainbridge_Island,_Washington) This is the first time I've seen an...
The Elizabeth Warren story is not about whether she is 1/32nd Cherokee. Questions persist as to why Warren listed herself as Native American, a fact as to which she had no proof until yesterday, only in a publication almost exclusively used by other law professors and Deans during a time...
Obama's speech from Afghanistan, standing in front of military vehicles at Bagram Air Base, was fairly predictable. Yet in this moment of spiking the football, Obama needed to remind us that we are not yet worthy as a nation (emphasis mine): Our soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, coast guardsmen...
This video, via The NY Sun, is brutal, as Kathleen Sebelius is taken to school by Trey Gowdy (R-SC): An account of the hearing was issued by the Catholic News Agency. It’s almost painful to read. The secretary admits she was unaware of legal precedents confirming...
Breaking news is that Obama has made an unannounced trip to Afghanistan to sign a security agreement and will hold a 7:30 p.m. address to the nation from Bagram Air Force Base. At what point does this all backfire? It's so transparently political taking place on...
Obama has launched an attack ad quoting Romney as saying he would not "move heaven and earth" to get Osama bin Laden and suggesting Romney would not have given the go ahead. This coverage is typical: Considering what a big deal AxelPlouffe and the media are making, it amazes me...
