Now that congress is back in session, one item on the itinerary is another Defense Authorization bill.  And, as usual, Republicans are vexed by the over-used tactic of Democrats sliding un-related bits of their agenda under the radar, knowing that the chance of any Defense bill not passing is very slim.

Nevada has been no stranger to the green energy controversy for a few years now.  Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev) has addressed the energy issue by backing Cap-and-Trade legislation and attempting to erect expansive wind farms near the city of Searchlight.  Three years ago Harry Reid created the National Clean [...]

Senate Majority leader Harry Reid (D-Nev) has been using some special creative math recently to predict the outcome of this year’s mid-term election.  By factoring in Nevada’s elusive, election-spoiling voter option NOTA (which stands for “None Of The Above”), Harry stated on Monday that if the election were to [...]

“Instead of joining us on the right side of history, all Senate Republicans can come up with is: ‘Slow down, stop everything and start over.’  If you think you’ve heard these same excuses before, you’re right. When this country belatedly recognized the wrongs of slavery, there were those who dug [...]

Wednesday, July 1, 2009
Reaction to the Supreme Court ruling overturning Sonia Sotomayor and two other judges’ ruling on the discrimination case involving 20 Connecticut fire-fighters has fallen right along party lines. Democrats (and liberals) who normally trumpet the cause of equal rights and civil liberties seem to have reverted to another agenda, that [...]

Nevada Senator John Ensign (R) announced Tuesday that he had an affair with a campaign staffer back in 2007-08. Marital indiscretions make the news in Washington fairly often, so there’s nothing shocking or unusual about the announcement (unless you happen to be Mrs. John Ensign).   There is some speculation that [...]
