‘Same Old Place, Sweet Home Chicago’

Remember the bikini bombshell? Lots of laughs. Good times. But is it possible that a Democrat like Jesse Jackson Jr. could actually lose in Chicago? Never say never, as I point out in my latest American Spectator column: Isaac Hayes wasn’t always happy to share the same name as a singer famed for “Shaft” and other 1970s […]

Pro-Fellatio Coalition to Gather in Boston

Bill Clinton will campaign Sunday for Barney Frank and never have two more famously fervent advocates of oral sex shared a stage at a political event — not even in Boston! And what is the occasion for this Bill and Barney reunion? Well, you see, back in January, a guy named Scott Brown got himself elected to the […]

Waiting to Exhale in Chicago

Our recent encounter with a certain bikini-clad blonde was good for blog traffic — thank you, Professor Reynolds — and elicited some mirthful commentary about D.C. cocktail hostess Giovana Huidobro‘s services to Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-Corruption). But Chicago Sun-Times columnist Mary Mitchell isn’t laughing: What’s going on with U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. is the […]

As If I Actually Needed an Excuse to Post This Picture of a Blonde in a Bikini

Conveniently enough, she managed to get herself involved in a serious political news story: Now, far be it from me to throw the first stone here. After all, who are we to judge? Or more to the point, who are we to make tasteless jokes about Giovana Huidobro and her married (alleged) boyfriend, Rep. Jesse […]

Could Mattie Fein Become California’s Christine O’Donnell?

I don’t know if Mattie Fein ever dabbled in witchcraft, but she is certainly tired of being dissed by the same Republican establishment types who are running down the Delaware GOP Senate candidate: Karl Rove’s now-infamous disparagement of Christine O’Donnell has provoked one Republican congressional candidate to go public with her criticisms of GOP leadership. Mattie Fein, […]

Democrat Halvorson’s Nazi-Smear Aide Is Lesbian Who Brags About ‘Gigantic Boobs’

A commenter on the earlier post about Rep. Debbie Halvorson’s “Palin-as-Hitler” protesters points out that Halvorson aide Anna Markowski had a profile on the “OkCupid” dating site (Firefox users click here) with this delightful bit of self-description: And, yes, Markowski identified herself as “25/F/Gay/Single,” so all you lesbian ladies who want to date a gigantic-breasted Democrat […]

Democrat Congresswoman’s Staff Uses Nazi Campaign Smear in Illinois

Democratic campaign operatives working for Rep. Debbie Halvorson (D-Illinois, 11th District) staged a protest against the free-market group Americans for Prosperity, carrying signs that depicted Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck and Halvorson’s Republican opponent with Hitler mustaches. Larry O’Connor at Big Government has video and photos: More from Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit and Dan Riehl. […]

What’s Up With Bob Etheridge and Cows?

For the record, no one has suggested — not even so much as hinted — that Rep. Bob Etheridge (D-N.C.) has a relationship with his cattle that some might call “unnatural.” But when a congressman leaves a meeting with his constituents because he wants to spend “quality time” with his cows . . . well, […]
