Scamming in the name of Allah.

Tiptoe through the left-wing tulips.

Road map to…where?

The illegal alien CIA/FBI agent Nada Prouty debacle keeps getting worse and worse, uglier and uglier, outrageous and more outrageous. Today, the NYPost reports that Prouty’s former sister-in-law also engaged in a bogus immigration marriage scam and is now a…Marine officer:

I’m sure you’ve all heard by now about the parents in Prince George’s County, Maryland, who were threatened with jail time by public school officials if they didn’t get their kids vaccinated with chickenpox and hepatitis B shots.

Runaways.

A wonderful gesture.

Birds of a feather.

So, they can’t–make that won’t–get it together to provide funding for the troops, but they’re going to pretend to work over the weekend in order to stomp their feet over Democrat appointments. My four-year-old is more mature than Harry Reid:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., will keep the U.S. Senate in session over the [...]

The b-word.

AP flash:
The Senate on Friday blocked a Democratic proposal to pay for the Iraq war but require that troops start coming home.
