Do you want evidence of Nancy Pelosi’s crazy, progressive, elitist thought process? Here’s what she had to say during a speech to the National Association of Counties about the current health care bill the Democrats are trying to ram through Congress:
“You’ve heard about the controversies, the process about the bill…but I don’t know if you’ve [...]

The election drama in Massachusetts climaxed with Republican Scott Brown’s victory to fill the late Sen. Ted Kennedy’s seat, a first time in a long time since a Republican represented the Bay State in the Senate. Although Sen. Brown shares an exciting “dark horse” story against his opponent Martha Coakley, there’s an even more intriguing [...]

Georgia Congressman Jack Kingston (R) was among the few Republicans in attendance during President Obama’s visit to Savannah on Tuesday to talk about jobs and energy. The other prominent Republican was Gov. Sonny Perdue who isn’t running for re-election. Some would question the wisdom of Rep. Kingston’s decision to be seen side by side with [...]

After being found in violation by the House ethics panel, Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) may soon (as in Wednesday) lose his chairmanship of the powerful Ways and Means Committee. Not only are the Republicans pressuring speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to strip Rangel of the position, but many Democrats — especially those facing re-election this year [...]

Rep. John Linder (R-GA) is retiring after 18 years of serving his constituents. A notable fiscal conservative, he’s known as a major proponent of the FairTax and have co-authored a couple of books on the subject. It’s a shame that the FairTax proposal hasn’t gained much traction in Congress and that no significant tax reform [...]

Actions speak louder than words, and as much as Democrats decry accusations pinning them as national security softies, there’s a very good reason for it. Consider what the House Democrats tried to sneak into the intelligence authorization bill:
Democrats inserted an 11-page addition into the bill late Wednesday night as the House Rules Committee considered the [...]

The House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct has found Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) to be in ethics violation stemming from trips he took to the Caribbean:
The House ethics panel has been investigating several trips taken by Mr. Rangel and several other Democratic lawmakers in 2007 and 2008. The investigation looked at travel by Mr. Rangel [...]

Rep. Joseph Cao (R-LA) was the only Republican in the House to vote yes on the health care bill, but will not do so again in the president’s latest proposal. His gripe? Abortion funding:
“I have conveyed to the White House that at this point I cannot support the agenda that’s being pushed because of the [...]

This thing just won’t die…
Lead zombie President Obama is readying a merged House and Senate health care bill, without any Republican participation, to be presented as early as Sunday or Monday. And the Democrats are going to rush it through by reconciliation:
Those agreements are likely to be combined as a privileged budget reconciliation bill, which [...]

Another Democrat in Congress is bailing out: Rep. Patrick Kennedy of Rhode Island. The son of late Sen. Ted Kennedy will not seek re-election, announcing his retirement. He’s served eight terms and is only 42 years old.
Scott Brown’s victory really struck a nerve in Washington, and especially to New England, a traditionally liberal stronghold.

Many Republicans are looking to the Hawaii 1st Congressional District race for the next Scott Brown moment. Honolulu City Councilman Charles Djou (R) has a good chance of winning the seat because the May special election has no primaries and multiple Democratic candidates are likely to split votes, giving him an advantage. Even similarities have [...]

It’s great to see Scott Brown becoming the senator-elect of Massachusetts. But it sure is entertaining to see the Democrats and liberals in an epic crap throwing contest. Against each other!
Even before the polls closed, word got out that a Coakley adviser sent out a memo blaming the Washington Democrats for acting too late:

National Dems [...]

Rep. Anh “Joseph” Cao (R-LA) was the only Republican to vote with the House Democrats on its version of the health care bill, but will oppose the Senate health care bill.
