I go after the left all the time for opposing free speech and for doing its best to shut down citizens, especially at townhall events. Well here is an example of a Republican doing the same thing. His actions are those I’d instantly condemn were it a left-wing Democrat (but I repeat [...]

The Hill has an interesting, if not a bit slanted, report about the faux grassroots efforts of unions and left-wing advocates to pretend they are somehow just like the Tea Party by attacking the town hall meetings of various GOP congressman across the country this Summer.
The Hill dutifully reports without complaint the [...]

The left is desperate to color Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan’s GOP budget plan (The Path to Prosperity, as it is styled) as the end of America, crazed to call his plan a killer of old people, and maniacal about saying that the GOP and Ryan want to destroy the country by asking [...]

Perhaps if Obama spent less time campaigning and more time leading and putting together a plan, he’d have a right to talk…..sorry, I forgot, that’s all Obama does. Talk. And tell others “get ‘er done. The links are calling”
At first, President Obama didn’t call the Republican budget plan “radical” during his town hall yesterday.
He called [...]

Huh? He didn’t say that? That was just my eyes replacing “president” with “partier”, due to his actions over the past 2+ years? Oh. Sorry. My Bad. Anyhow, he’d have to spend a lot more time at East Carolina University if he wants to perfect his partying skills, but, moving on

This certainly doesn’t help as we enter the 4th quarter in the big mid-terms game
The Obama excitement that pervaded college campuses two years ago has faded.
An Associated Press-mtvU poll found college students cooling in their support for President Barack Obama, a fresh sign of trouble for Democrats struggling to rekindle enthusiasm among the newest voters [...]

Obama advisers deny having talks about doing this, but, really, does anyone believe that an administration that has always stayed in campaign mode and has never had a problem with going after private citizens hasn’t discussed this at length?
President Obama’s political advisers, looking for ways to help Democrats and alter the course of the midterm [...]

Last week a shocking video of a townhall of sorts held by Chicago, Illinois area Congressman Melissa Bean (D, 8th District) was released that seemed to show that she’d hired a couple of thugs to intimidate attendees from asking her questions that she didn’t want to answer.
The video kicked up a bit [...]

You do have to give John Kerry some props: he is using the old saying that there is no such thing as bad press to good effect. Witness his latest histrionics
Speaking at a town hall-style meeting promoting climate change legislation on Thursday, Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) predicted there will be “an ice-free Arctic” [...]

Number three on our list almost violates the criteria that I set up in the first piece I wrote for this series. I said then that denizens of the Old Media that are too much a “cartoon of journalism” would not be included on my list. Yet despite my dismissal of such [...]

Last weekend I attended a townhall meeting held by my congressman. During the question and answer period one theme came to the fore that is all too common in America today. That theme was that we need less “partisanship” in Washington D.C., there is too much choosing of sides, too much party [...]

We all knew that Scott Brown’s victory in Massachusetts would send shockwaves through the Democratic establishment. This is very possibly one result of those shockwaves.
As top Democrats cast about for a way to get health care reform back on track, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi took one option off the table Thursday, saying her caucus [...]
