Like Magic!

In politics, self-deprecating humor wins. Take the joke and turn it around. Show them that you have a sense of humor about yourself. People made fun of Ronald Reagan as a “B-movie” actor, so he’d crack jokes about that. When they said he was too old to be president, he made jokes about his age. Christine […]

SATURDAY: Help Celebrate National ‘Denounce Lisa Murkowski Day’

Let’s face it: Lisa the Loser’s pathetic write-in campaign is such a disgusting RINO backstabber move that even Charlie Crist would be ashamed to try anything so transparently desperate.

Christine O’Donnell, Right Again!

“And you can tell that Britney Spears is struggling with who she is. I think she has a team of agents and managers who are saying, yes, push the envelope, kiss Madonna, take off all your clothes. And she’s doing that because she doesn’t want to sacrifice this enormous platform that she’s built. But at […]

Reply to Rick Moran

Dan Riehl breaks his vow never to pimp-slap Rick again. Me? I’m just kind of at a lost for words at Rick’s description of “an identifiable tea party establishment . . . a self identified elite who are more interested in maintaining their position at the top of the tea party ziggurat than in stopping the […]
