The Caged Bird Sings »

Borrowed from the title of Maya Angelou’s great book. Only in this case, the bird singing is Anita Moncrief, a former ACORN employee. Oh, yes - she’s singing like a canary in this intriguing article from the Wall Street Journal the other day,
An Acorn Whistleblower Testifies in Court, The group’s ties [...]

How Low Will He Go? »

$250,000; $200,000; $164,500; $150,000; $120,000; $70,000
Aren’t you glad I mentioned that song? Now you can have it stuck in your head all day long like I have! Ahem. Of course, I am talking about the ever-changing figure from Obama and his spokespeople on where he draws the line on being rich. [...]

Honest and Open Election Committee - UPDATED »

Yes, McCain has a committee by this name, with Senator John Danforth taking the lead (and Senator Rudman is also on this committee). On October 29th, Senator Danforth held a conference call to talk primarily about ACORN and the problems associated with their activities in this election.
The good senator began by observing [...]

“Friends In High Places” * Open Thread »

Ah, democracy. How wonderful that we have a system of checks and balances, ways to insure a fair election. A whole, entire Department of Justice to oversee and protect our electoral process. Hip, hip hooray for the DOJ! Except, not so much…Check out this video:

“I Will Vote Obama” »

The blogger at That’s Me On The Left wrote something that I just have to cross-post:
I will vote Obama
I will vote for a man I know nothing about
I will vote because it is time for a black man in the White House
I will vote for a man I really haven’t researched, and I really don’t [...]

“Brother, Can You Spare A Dime,” Or More Like… »

“Give me all your money - I’m the government! I know how best to spend your hard earned wages - I’ll SHARE them with whomever I choose worthy! And while I’m at it, maybe I’ll take over your 401(k)s too, and give you a WHOPPING 3% interest on your “investment!
Aren’t I BENEVOLENT???” [...]

The Buck Stops Where, Barack? »

In a recurring series of nightmares which sometimes seem to take place in the day when I am awake, I keep thinking about money. Understandable, I guess. Like most Americans, my savings have tanked. I am worried for myself, my family and friends. I am worried for most of the country, actually. [...]

Obama Is Worried About Texas?? »

Alert Reader “Texas Buckeye” sent me the following email from the Obama Camp. Wow. Talk about your hubris! This goes right along with Peniel Cronin’s results of the Primary v. Caucus piece, “The Numbers Don’t Lie (But The DNC Does).” I should amend that to say, “The DNC and OBAMA!!” [...]

ACORN Continues the Reign of Terror in Missouri »

This weekend in St. Louis, Barack Obama attracted an estimated 100,000 people to a rally near the Arch grounds. I am wondering how many of those adoring throngs would be in the fold if they understood, really understood, that he had stolen the nomination from Hillary Clinton by committing massive caucus fraud, threatening the delegates [...]

Look Who Else Is In Bed With ACORN - UPDATED »

Yep, none other than John Edwards. Ahem. Oh, he didn’t just speak at one of their conventions, like some other Democrats did. No, it wasn’t that casual or innocent. He actually traveled with their president around the country. It gets really interesting around the 6 1/2 minute mark. Oh [...]
