The Great Shake Shack Controversy hits the New York Times – and Hub Blog is prominently featured. I await the flood of new readers and private-equity offers to buy my blog, though I hope the due-diligence types don’t notice that I never wrote the quoted remarks attributed to me. … BTW: Hub Blog wants the record to show I hereby officially oppose Jeff Miller’s Boston-themed...

Urgent Alert: Ask Your U.S. Senators And Representative To Sign Amicus Brief Supporting Second Amendment Rights In The States! Friday, November 13, 2009 As a critical Second Amendment case goes before the United States Supreme Court, U.S. Senators Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) and Jon Tester (D-MT), and Congressmen Mike Ross (D-AR) and Mark Souder (R-IN) are gathering signatures for an amicus curiae...
Aaron Blake seems like a decent enough writer at The Hill but sometimes... I just get the idea those headlines come right from the RNC communications department. Like yesterday's: Few Dems In Big Races Jump Headlong Into Backing Health Bill . Unless he meant "Few Blue Dogs," he sure has that wrong, wrong, wrong. The suicidal Blue Dogs and fellow travelers (like Artur Davis, the cowardly conservative...
As a critical Second Amendment case goes before the United States Supreme Court, U.S. Senators Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) and Jon Tester (D-MT), and Congressmen Mike Ross (D-AR) and Mark Souder (R-IN) are gathering signatures for an amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) brief by Members of Congress. And we need your support for this important effort next week.
MoveOn.org is doing the job the GOP just won't do - attack Democrat congressmen. They're running this ad against Mike Ross in Arkansas because he dared to vote "no" on their precious Obamacare (h/t Jim Geraghty ): Geraghty sums it up very nicely: MoveOn.org: Doing its part to help ensure a GOP House in 2010. They are their own worst enemies, and the good news is they don't know it.
Blanche Lincoln is between a rock and a hard place. She's a Democratic senator up for reelection in a relatively conservative state. Making it worse , In terms of trends, Arkansas was Obama's worst state, by Superman-esque leaps and bounds. The president underperformed John Kerry by six points statewide, and underperformed in every congressional district. The drops seen in Marion Berry's district,...
I was wondering whether or not news behind this weekend's vote on health care reform in the House of Representatives would lead to an early Chutzpah of the Week award. The good news is that I was right: It was pretty easy for find grounds for the award. The bad news, as one might guess from what actually came out of the House, is that this is an award for the negative connotation of chutzpah . Even...
In the wake of Saturday night's historic health care vote, the main lines of attack have been extremely partisan -- Republicans insist that politically vulnerable Democrats who voted for the bill will subsequently lose their seats and vice versa. Now, however, Democrats are being targeted from inside their own camp. The progressive advocacy group MoveOn.org released a new set of television ads on Monday...

THEY VOTED 'NO' BECAUSE THEY DO NOT SERVE SATAN
Moveon.org is another New World Order hub for the Eugenics movement. Moveon is a propaganda machine which preys on those who either cannot or simply...
Soros Losers Unplugged There seems to be a disconnect going on out there. The latest Rasmussen Poll shows that despite Saturday Night's House passage, the public is against Obamacare 52%-45% . Worse for Obama, only 25% Strongly Support the plan while 42% are Strongly Opposed. With that in mind, I wonder what MoveOn.Soros is thinking? “ MoveOn Attacks Dems Who Voted Against Health Care The backlash...
The New York Times has an excellent graphic up today profiling the 39 Democrats who voted against healthcare reform in the House of Representatives on Saturday night. The Times notes that 31 of these Democrats represent districts won by John McCain, as if that's a sufficient excuse. But take a closer look at the numbers. Paradoxically, those Democrats voting against healthcare reform represent constituents...
Two different progressive approaches I got a lovely personalized e-mail from MoveOn.org yesterday thanking me for having a little something to do with the health care victory Saturday night. (My congressmember, Diane Watson-- who I love for her prefect voting record and wonderful leadership role among progressives, but who has never responded to a phone call from me-- voted for the bill. If not her,...
Last night, 23 Democrats voted against providing 36 million Americans with health insurance while reducing the deficit, but in favor of the Stupak amendment to restrict reproductive rights for low-income women. Those 23 Democrats are : Jason Altmire (PA-4); Bobby Bright (AL-2); John Barrow (GA-12); John Boccieri (OH-16); Dan Boren (OK-2); Ben Chandler (KY-6); Travis Childers (MS-1); Artur Davis (AL-7);...
The Republican tally for House votes in favor of health care reform: one. That one affirmative voter is Representative Anh "Joseph" Cao (left) of Louisiana. Explaining his vote, Cao said : “I read the versions of the House bill. I listened to the countless stories of Orleans and Jefferson Parish citizens whose health care costs are exploding — if they are able to obtain health...
http://realhealthreform.wordpress.com/2009/07/27/quick-post-democrats%E2%80%99-divide-fuels-turmoil-on-health-care/ Many Democrats are beginning to realize that the public will blame them if they are forced to give up their health care (which most like by the way) or have to work within a federally controlled system. Unfortunately, President Obama has deferred to the more radical leadership in his...
