© Mike Keefe Back when Republicans had control of the presidency, both houses of Congress, and the Supreme Court, they ran up record deficits.

The GOP is campaigning to repeal Obama’s health care overhaul bill, calling it socialist and a job killer. To support this, they quote polls that show that Americans oppose the reform bill by numbers like 40% against to 30% in favor (with 30% neutral). So it sounds like Americans want the GOP to kill Obamacare. […]

In the wake of the Supreme Court decision allowing corporations to spend unlimited amounts of money on political races, we are indeed seeing a huge upsurge in the amount of money being spent by third parties for the upcoming election.

“In Delaware, they have a professional witch running for Senate, and she said at one time that she actually had a date on a satanic altar. Whoa! I mean, seriously, who hasn’t? … The date actually took place at Motel 666.” – David Letterman “As you know, Tea Party candidate Christine O’Donnell has come out […]

In the Republican’s new “Pledge To America” they say: We will allow small business owners to take a tax deduction equal to 20 percent of their business income. However, there are two common forms of “small business” that doesn’t pay any taxes already. Instead, in Subchapter S corporations and Limited Liability Companies and Partnerships (LLCs), […]

“There are 37 Republican candidates for the Senate. Not one believes global warming is real and man made. Except the one, Mike Castle, the guy [O’Donnell] defeated in Delaware.” – Bill Maher “I saw that new movie ‘Devil’ or as Delaware Tea Party candidate Christine O’Donnell calls it, ‘Roots’” – Jay Leno “There’s a clip […]

© Jen Sorensen Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, and now Christine O’Donnell — is this what is going on? I guess Ronald Reagan completely legitimized actors as politicians, so now the Republicans are working on sexy women as politicians? Watch this video about the “Top 10 Mama Grizzlies“. By the way, no comments about the fact […]

“You know this Tea Party candidate, Christine O’Donnell, is causing a lot of controversy with her kind of unorthodox views. She’s come out against masturbation. You know what that means? She’s out of touch with those voters who are in touch with themselves.” – Jay Leno “Nation, I’ve have been a diehard supporter of Delaware […]
