Remember That Crazy Lady? Cindy Sheehan?

This just in: Cindy Sheehan debating running for Diane Feinstein’s Senate position. How’s that for one big potential catfight? She says that she would run against the very liberal Feinstein because she was in favor of the war in Iraq. Feinstein’s office fired back a rebuttal stating the Senator was...

I Must Be A Doofus . . . And Other Rants From Jane

I must be a doofus. This simply makes no sense to me, except that it’s all about politics and people being political and two faced and catering to their bank rolling lobbyist friends versus their actual constituents. According to one article I read (i.e. from Bloomberg.com) at least two Demo... Sign in to see full entry.

Is He THAT BAD?

From FRC's Washington Update: Awaiting Alito Judge Samuel A. Alito, Jr., came a step closer to becoming Justice Alito today when the Judiciary Committee voted 10-8 to approve his nomination and send it to the floor for a final vote of the full Senate. To say the party-line vote was a disappointment... Sign in to see full entry.

Democrats MUST Have Alzheimers . . .

(or so it would seem!) This is from FRC's Washington Update: "Back in November, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter (R-PA) agreed to delay the Alito hearings until January. In return, Ranking Minority Member Patrick Leahy (D-VT) agreed to hold a vote in the Judiciary Committee on... Sign in to see full entry.

"ACLU Sues to Stop Domestic Spy Program"

(According to latest headines) Great! Thanks to them and Al Gore, I'll know who to blame next time we're attacked by terrorists. From what I've read and heard, it's not that the NSA is randomly spying on your average Mr. or Mrs. or Ms. American. Nope. They're keeping track of calls made to residents...

Little Old Lady Killer . . . .

While vegging out on the sofa in front of the TV, I was watching Fox News (what else?) and happened to see the ticker tape along the bottom of the screen. My attention was piqued with the words "cross dresser or large burly woman".... "7 deaths directly attributed to Little Old Lady Killer".... "May... Sign in to see full entry.

Just Goes to Show – It’s Never Too Late and You’re Never Too Old!

I happened to skim through an article on the inauguration of Africa’s first woman president, namely, President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf. The article observed that this swearing in marks a new dawn for the West African nation that was founded by freed American slaves. The new president is a 67 year old... Sign in to see full entry.

Former Pres. Carter FINALLY Gets SOMETHING Right!

Folks, it's all about ABORTION... Taken from FRC's Washington Update: "Lawrence Lader was the founder of NARAL. He wrote: "Abortion is central to everything in life and how we wanted to live it." That attitude is coming more and more to define one of our great historic political parties. Watching... Sign in to see full entry.

Really TOO Busy at the Moment . . . .

But I saw this great quote and had to share it. From Mark Steyn: "When it comes to forecasting the future, the birthrate is the nearest thing to hard numbers. If only a million babies are born in 2006, it's hard to have two million adults enter the workforce in 2026... And the hard data on babies... Sign in to see full entry.
