We hear so many conflicting stories on health care in the news, it’s hard to know what to believe. That being the case, I figured it may be best to talk to someone who’s there. So yesterday, I caught up...

I just finished interviewing Rep. Lynn Westmoreland, (R-GA). The first thing I asked during the interview was whether he’d seen proof that last night’s elections had an impact on the DC Democrats’ behavior. To my surprise, he said that it didn’t appear that the elections had had much of an impact whatsoever. He said that Democrats [...]

Indiana bigot Mike Pence blew the whistle on this one. A couple weeks ago we looked at how the Republican obsession with openly gay people and the Republican obsession with "czars" was degenerating into a jihad against Kevin Jennings, the Assistant Deputy Secretary at the Department of Education for the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools. Bigot extraordinaire Steve King of Iowa wrote a...

The quarterly Federal Election Commission filings are out, and it's not good news for Chris Lee. His fundraising for the July-September period dropped massively to just $142,000. That's compared to $235,000 for the previous quarter, and $224,000 for the quarter before that. Minus his $95,000 in "operating expenses" (which seems ridiculously high to me for a campaign that's not currently campaigning),...

We've had a previous discussion about Tom Crawford. One of my regular readers quite correctly chastised me for not calling him out on his latest wild ravings. Well that stops now . I am confident that Congressman Lynn Westmoreland (R-Dachau), who considers Obama to be too "uppity" for his taste, had a similar reaction. Dachau? Really? We all love to slap witty, hyperbolic appellations on...

Aaron Blake, writing for The Hill , mentions something I have often said since the Democrats took the Senate, House and presidency. The Democrats will finally be held accountable for their actions, their spending, their bad ideas and their partisanship, without being able to make excuses about how the Republicans "control" the House, Senate or the White House. This has brought districts and...

Our first week of Fantasy Football is over, and we have our first winners of the young season. Lynn Westmoreland’s Lynn’s Swans dominated the group, with 103.36 points, beating out fellow Congressman Nathan Deal’s Real Deal team.

Throughout August and September, we heard Democrats crying how Republicans have no alternative to their raping of the health care system of America. In a "Fact-Check" Card issued to officials and made avaiable to followers, the claim was made, Republicans "have refused to release a plan to the public." Introduced on July 30, 2009, prior to recess, was HR 3400 - Small Business Health...
