Ok, I've been voting a long, long time and this is the craziest I've ever seen. Since I won't be voting this election, I can just sit back and enjoy it. In my book, there's no real difference between Jeb and Hillary, because there's no stopping the leftward trajectory this country is on, and the result...

So the Pope is a big hit with the CC crowd. He's so admired, he's totally cool, and he supports all the causes that the really intelligent people support. But wait, what is this? He did what? Oh noes! This cannot be true. It is true? Well, he must have been duped. No? Then he must have just been try...

Boehner's tendered a surprise... to me anyway. While I've slandered him for the strange tan more than one or two times, he's always seemed like a pretty decent guy. Maybe it's because he reminds me so strongly of Dean Martin. Not much of eye for an eye kind of conservative which is not exactly what I wish...

Okay, I'm here to admit it. I'm horrified. I have been a huge supporter of PP for decades, both financially, and in spirit. I have defended them to anyone, for their long record of providing inexpensive birth control and providing women's screening services for a low price. I got very inexpensive bir...

So, Obama's trade is looking better and better. Susan Rice says he served with honor and distinction. His fellow soldiers say he's a traitor. It's so incredibly hard to know who to believe: Obama & Rice, or the soldiers. I mean, the soldiers were there, so there's that. But Obama & Rice h...

Condolences to the family and especially his mother. I have two sons. I know. The young man had his whole life ahead of him. However. The kid was reportedly 6'4" and 249 lbs.

Boehner's not my ideal when it comes to an anti-Obama protagonist... lean more towards someone like the pest control guy, Tom Delay... but he's what we're looking at for the foreseeable future. I suppose I'm asking you, longprime: in the future, should I send all my campaign contributions to the Cha...

PBO, exec order, Immigration. Nothing new. He's only making policy that is already in practice. Budget cuts forces management discretion. Good political move by PBO.

After the 2012 election liberals were all high and mighty about how republicans were so wrong about polling. Libs used this as "I told you so" evidence of their superiority compared to conservatives. Where are they now that the polls were even more wrong for them?

I am close to opinion that PBO should declare Ebola-USA, as self-inflicted bioterrorism and Congress should prohibit the enforcement of Ebola "terrorism" clause. Our Congress is in its final weeks of campaigning and doesn't want to add new controversy prior to election day, unless...

Not that he's actually voiced the above, but Hilary has worn that Benghazi steak around her neck on a string so well. All those old soundbytes about terrorists being on the run. The decision that was his alone, to pull out of Iraq. The GW inspired braggadocio about a "JV" team being beneath t...
