Senator Jim DeMint:
The people of South Carolina have given me the privilege of representing them in Congress for more than 10 years now, and over that period I’ve learned a great deal about how things work in Washington. One of the more unfortunate things I’ve come to realize is that Congress has the power to [...]

You know, we all love the Internet. Heck, I make a good portion of my living on Al Gore’s most famous invention so it gets a big thumbs up from me, for sure. But we have to admit that there are an awful lot of goofballs on these Internet tubes. In some [...]

Recent events in this nation have begun to raise some questions about how far we have drifted away from the original intent of the Founding Fathers of this country. A nation originally conceived as a collection of smaller countries. Each state maintaining a level of sovereignty in the world but banded together for mutual defense. [...]

Or is that “nemisi?” Regardless, let’s see how the Republicans and Democrats will handle the health destruction debate during the August recess. I’ll skip through the New York Times article to see what the GOP will do first, and then I’ll highlight the Democrat strategy. You tell me which one will have the most problems, [...]

I wonder what could have caused this? (h/t Dr. Melissa Clouthier)
Screaming constituents, protesters dragged out by the cops, congressmen fearful for their safety — welcome to the new town-hall-style meeting, the once-staid forum that is rapidly turning into a house of horrors for members of Congress.

What good is reading the bill if it’s a thousand pages and you don’t have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you read the bill?
He actually makes a good point. If you aren’t given time to read a thousand pages and discuss it, how can one expect you [...]
