…collective disappointment of McCain among Republicans since 2008, McCain was able to win a 2010 re-election in Arizona by a 56 to 32 percent margin. So, McCain’s support of Romney in Arizona will go a long way. Gingrich and Congressman Ron Paul have signaled that they are in this nomination battle for the long haul, if not taking it all the way to the convention. But should Romney have wins in 78% of the states going into Arizona, then Arizona…

…not care about the behavior of his cabinet or the behavior of Congress. They are in power. We can only do one thing: Vote them out in November. The only thing I would like to see investigated more are the allegations made by Congressman Sestak in Pennsylvania in which he said he was offered a position by the Obama Administration to get out of the race against Arlen Spector. Attorney General Eric Holder should hire a special investigator immediat…

…been so clearly demonstrated as with health care reform. What may be less clear is the hypocrisy in thinking that liberals represent enlightenment while conservatives are of lesser intelligence. Case in point. When Republican Congressman Eric Cantor brought the 2400 page Senate bill to the health-care summit in order to reinforce his position, the president criticized him for using it as a “prop”. Democratic Congressman Louise Slaught…

… it immediately”. Shortly after the speech Wilson did just that and called the White House and apologized for his “inappropriate and regrettable comments”. The next day President Obama told the cabinet meeting he accepted the Congressman’s apology. End of story right? Well not quite. Republicans and Democrats alike have said the apology by Wilson was not quite good enough. They wanted him to do it in the place where the crime occurred…Congress. D…

…s born on January 15, the holiday is always observed on the third Monday in January as part of The Uniform Monday Holiday Act. The federal holiday wasn’t an easy one to get passed in Congress. It was initially introduced by Congressman John Conyers (D-Michigan) on April 8, 1968, just four days after Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee. It was designed to make King’s actual birthday a holiday; however, it did not pass…

Well, it’s Christmas Eve and another year is almost over. Today we Republicans got a small Christmas present: Alabama Congressman Parker has switched parties and joined the GOP. We also got a small slap in the face as the Senate finally passed their version of the Health Care Bill. But now, is not really the time for politics. It’s Christmas. So, with deepest apologies to Clement Moore and Dr….

In 1807, Thomas Jefferson wrote, “History, in general, only informs us what bad government is.” And in the 1890s, John Sharp Williams, a prominent congressman, expanded on that quote stating, “My reading of history convinces me that most bad government has grown out of too much government.” And only one hundred years later, Senator Rick Santorum embodied the Republican version of “too much government.” As Rick Santorum travels across the natio…

… of these circumstances, the use of the word hero is trivialized. A deeper problem is that ides of myth, legend and story hold a society’s culture together. The concept of the hero is central to these. By misapplying the hero label and refraining from using it when needed takes our culture in the wrong direction. I hope we can recover the sense of propriety about who we call a hero and what they did to be considered brave before it’s too late. A …

Putting aside the level of sanctity attached to the honor of a serial adulterer and censured Congressman, the notion that Newt is somehow risking his life in the pursuit of the Presidency is over the top. He was quoting the final line of the Declaration of Independence, signed by men who were putting themselves at m…
