…e vote, you would think the Senate had just accomplished the greatest feat since the creation of man. What they really did was nothing . . . . . yet. (I’m sorry, maybe they did do something. It appears they bought the vote of Senator Mary Landrieu from Louisiana with a staggering amount of pork.) Sometime after Thanksgiving, true debate in the Senate will begin. The pros and cons of Mr. Reid’s bill will finally be debated in front of the American…

“It’s one of the great Bernie Madoff gimmicks that I’ve ever seen, that anybody’s ever seen.” said Senator John McCain on ABC’s “Good Morning America”. He was referring to the way Democrats were able to pass the Healthcare Bill. McCain continued, “This was behind closed doors. The Republicans were never brought in to the negotiations and this is what you get — a split country — where the American …

…remains, can a Conservative be elected without a smiley face, especially against the toothy Obama? Trailing Mr. Gingrich is Rick Santorum, who we learned this week was the real winner of the Iowa caucuses. Though I appreciate Senator Santorum’s commitment to life issues and respect his knowledge of foreign policy, he still strikes me as a sophomore sneaking into the Senior Prom wearing his dad’s tuxedo. The moment as yet seems too big for him. Fr…

… in Memphis, Tennessee. It was designed to make King’s actual birthday a holiday; however, it did not pass and Conyers would persist every year introducing the same bill for more than a decade. On the other side of the isle, Senator Edward Brooke (R-Massachusetts), also introduced legislation in 1968 authorizing the President to issue a proclamation each year designating January 15 as “Martin Luther King Day,” and called on the people to commemo…

…ne party take the high road. The party that can achieve this will be the party the people follow. Speaking of taking the high road I would like to add one final note. On July 25th at a Town Hall meeting in Sun City, Arizona Senator John McCain again showed the country and the world what a true American he really is. Below is a section taken from an article by Paul Lester published on “Deadline USA”. “During the meeting in the retirement commu…

…* Can the President have the military come and arrest you? Yes! * Can he (or she) send you to a military tribunal for trial or just hold you indefinitely in a military facility, without charges? Yes! Even the bill co-sponsor, Senator McCain, appears to agree with this assessment. Senator Rand Paul asked John McCain, on the Senate floor, “…under the provisions, would it be possible that an American citizen could be declared an ‘enemy combatant’ an…

…oke of 700 billion in new spending and promised tax cuts to 95% of the American people. It is impossible to increase the size of government that dramatically and still lower taxes. The deficit will be increased exponentially. Senator McCain did not challenge this and when he did, his response was not clear and badly communicated. We currently have the largest deficit in United States history and it is growing. President Bush, unfortunately, is a …

…and policy decisions? If that is the case, they are deadly wrong. We do understand and that is why President Obama and the Democratic Congress cannot get HR 3200 passed in its current form despite their overwhelming majority. Senator Baucus of Montana, Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee is fighting to get his proposed bill through the Committee. The bill has been in the mark-up phase for about two weeks. Numerous amendments have been added …

…t the massive layoffs. Here’s the next prediction: Governor Mitt Romney wins the GOP nomination. Why? Again, simply because of his track record. Okay, it’s not a stretch, but nothing is guaranteed. As it stands right now, Senator Santorum, Governor Romney and Speaker Gingrich have each won a state. Gingrich currently leads in the delegate count as provided by the states; however, Romney leads in the overall delegate count which includes pled…

…o the spitting image of Peter Lawford?” However, the myth of the Kennedy clan as earnest public servants is now taking a pummeling reminiscent of when Frazier met Foreman, this because Joseph P. Kennedy II, son of former N.Y. Senator and U.S. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and nephew of President John F. Kennedy, has been for the last few years participating in an exercise of self-aggrandizement and self-enrichment, which marks him as a trait…
