Palin Giving Lessons In How To Give Appropriate Criticism

by Smitty Love her or no (and I do), the little FaceBook page that rocked Obama continues to harry his Ruling Class ilk: But this whole thing isn’t really about Newt Gingrich vs. Mitt Romney. It is about the GOP establishment vs. the Tea Party grassroots and independent Americans who are sick of the politics […]

Santorum Praised by Rush Limbaugh, Endorsed by Florida State Sen. Plakon

Wearing my Florida shirt at the CNN Jacksonville debate, Thursday, Jan. 26, 2012 (Photo by Dave Weigel) JACKSONVILLE, Fla. On his radio program today, Rush Limbaugh singled out Rick Santorum for his understanding that “ObamaCare is ballgame,” as Rush put it.

I’ve Got Your ‘Precise’ Right Here, ‘Gentleman’ Jim Moran: Patrick Murray For Congress!

by Smitty Via Big Government we have a throwaway remark from senior #OccupyDC member #OccupyResoluteDesk: On Tuesday night, the president spoke in no uncertain terms: “Send me a bill that bans insider trading by Members of Congress, and I will sign it tomorrow,” he said. “Let’s limit any elected official from owning stock in industries […]

CNN JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA DEBATE

My flight leaves Baltimore-Washington International Airport about 9 a.m. and arrives in Jacksonville about 1 p.m. By the time this post goes live, I’ll be on my way to the airport.

The GOP response in an Indiana war memorial was better, but not as much as it should have been. Mitch Daniels was basically […]

Florida Republican’s Ad Depicts Children Enslaved by Obama and Alan Grayson

Alan Grayson is hoping […]

TAMPA, FLORIDA NBC DEBATE

by Smitty Thoughts: These debates are great. The GOP is going to the gym, and going to be very muscular, assuming it doesn’t have a heart attack and die from it all. The Dems for all their bluster, have got to understand that they are losing the mindshare. The various pleadings to Florida were interesting. […]
