BREAKING: Lying Democrats Lie About Lying Democrat Ad Full of Lying Lies

Really, it’s like Democrats are trying to set a world land speed record for lying or something. No sooner do I update with their latest lies than the Democrats tell another half-dozen lies. Just for the fun of it, I guess. Romney campaign press release: OBAMA CAMPAIGN CAUGHT LYING ABOUT DISGRACED AD “With unemployment at […]

Democrats: The Party of Lies

The hardest thing about this post was the headline. My first idea was, “Godd–ned Worthless Motherf–king Democrat Party, Go to Hell,” but that seemed likely to offend the “family values” conservatives.

Paul Krugman Couldn’t Manage A Paper Route. Who In Their Right Mind Would Nominate Him For Fed Chair?

Will the Last Democrat Leaving Missouri Please Turn Out the Lights?

The state that once gave America such powerful Democrats as Harry Truman and Dick Gephardt is now turning deep, deep Republican red: Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) trails all three of her potential Republican rivals, according to a new survey conducted for two Missouri news outlets, cementing her status as this cycle’s most vulnerable incumbent.
