Don’t go there, my friends…

Romney and McCain: The GOP Frenemies’ Club by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 Michael Corleone said to “keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.” But what, pray tell, do we do with our frenemies? This is the awful, election-year quandary of movement conservatives. And everything you need to know about our heartache can […]

These guys deserve each other. Shaking my head… Watch how Romney and Nikki Haley rush to correct the bumbling McCain as the crowd begins to murmur and boo after his flub. Romney’s thinking: Mother fudge biscuits, someone get a cane and yank this saboteur off the stage. You want to parade Big Government/Tea Party-trashing Tea […]

Brace for “from my house” reference

Photoshop: Reader Jimmy D. Yes, I’m still struggling. Like many of you, I am still carefully weighing all the costs and benefits of each declared GOP candidate. As the candidates continue highlighting each other’s unsavory left-wing alliances, I thought it might be helpful to compile a Hold Your Nose Tracker of the current top four […]

**Written by Doug Powers When it comes to political menopause, John McCain leads the pack in hot flash mood swings. He’s drafted amnesty bills with Ted Kennedy; chosen Sarah Palin as his running mate; insulted the Tea Party; done 180 degree election year turnarounds to appease conservatives; and now he’s kinda-sorta down with Occupy Wall […]

Apologize? This isn’t an election year, Frodo

**Written by Doug Powers This will be a rare treat. It isn’t every day that we get a chance to see a movie partly about the political right from the perspective of the Hollywood left: Four-time Academy Award nominee Julianne Moore has been cast as former Alaska governor Sarah Palin in HBO’s upcoming film, Game […]

Caution: Charging RINO area

**Written by Doug Powers Do you think he actually wonders why he lost in 2008? The president has become more centrist, which makes him easier to work with, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Thursday. Speaking with Bloomberg Television a day after a private meeting with President Obama, McCain said he could picture working with Obama […]

Against DADT before she was for it

A “running of the donks” update

The open-borders lobby is out in full force, launching a week-long campaign yesterday to pass another illegal alien amnesty-by-another-name. DREAM Act activists and Hispanic lawmakers strategized with President Obama at the White House. The “undocumented students action and resource network” has been activated. How about you? Keep track of where your lawmakers stand at NumbersUSA. […]

Scroll for multi-state primary election results… I have watched and listened to many establishment Republicans and TV talking heads deride GOP Senate candidate J.D. Hayworth as a “clown,” “charlatan,” and a “huckster.” I have watched and listened to many purported “Tea Party” spokespeople and limited-government lobbyists defend entrenched GOP Senate incumbent John McCain as a […]

You have got to be freaking kidding me. Mr. I Was The Nation’s Number One Illegal Alien Amnesty Champion Before I Was Against It/Mr. Call Me Maaaaaverick Except When I Need The Right To Get Re-elected is attacking his erstwhile friends in the “Eastern press” for creating the impression that he is a desperate political […]

Scroll for updates… Photoshop credit: Applecross Media and Big Fur Hat The most glaring sign that President Obama’s announcement of border funding and National Guard troops is one big, phony charade? He apparently didn’t even bother to let the governor of besieged Arizona, Gov. Jan Brewer, know about it. Via Yahoo News: The Obama administration […]

John McCain is everywhere now preaching the gospel of secure borders. He’s inescapable. And shameless. And desperate. Yesterday, readers forwarded his latest spam e-mail: Where do you stand on border security? My Friend, One of the fundamental responsibilities of our government is to secure our borders so that our citizens, no matter where they live […]

I’ve said it before and it bears repeating even louder: Entrenched incumbency is not an argument for more entrenched incumbency. Conservatives in Utah sent that message loud in clear this weekend in ousting entrenched GOP incumbent Sen. Bob Bennett, who begged and pleaded furiously to save his hide in the weeks leading up to the […]

My friends. It’s time for some real straight talk. It’s time to take a good, hard look at the entrenched Beltway Republicans who call you their “friends” — and then repeatedly vote against you, trash you, and mock you in between elections until it’s time to pander again. Look at John McCain’s record, not his […]
