  • What the press cares about

    Number of comments: 4

    Patrick Kennedy is furious — and I mean screaming, red-in-the-face furious — and personally, I don’t blame him. Kennedy figured out exactly why our public has become so cynical about politics when exactly two reporters showed up to cover a House debate on Afghanistan.

    Cynicism is that there’s one, two press people in this gallery. [...]

  • $20K a Year For This?

    Freedom Dogs

    Our 21 year old daughter is currently in her Junior year at one of our taxpayer funded State of MN Universities and she has frequently complained about how much liberal indoctrination she is forced to endure in the course of her daily studies.  I think they finally pushed her over the [...]

    Midwest Spin

    Number of comments: 3
    Both MN GOP Governor candidates (Marty Seifert and Tom Emmer) are conservatives, but only one of them seems to be electable.  Lately DFLers have been talking about a possible Tom Emmer candidacy. It’s scary to see how enthusiastic they are for an Emmer endorsement.  Here are a couple of the tweets. *”I [...]

  • The Great ACORN fraud

    Mercury Rising

    Andrew Breitbart has posted transcripts of the O’Keefe encounters with ACORN. As FAIR says, the transcripts tell a very different story than the heavily-edited tapes that were released do. For example, in the Baltimore case, O’Keefe says he is a law student and implies that his girlfriend is a prostitute, [...]

You know people like Douglas Kmiec and other ProLife ProObama folks who claimed that [...]

    It’s a dark and rainy morning, and I have links to go with the weather. - Moody’s Economy says the recession is abating. It should be pointed out that “recovery” means no longer at the low point, not a restoration to where we were before. I experienced severe depression in 1982. I was [...]

    Governor wannabe Tom Emmer apparently thinks we should be like China.

    On MPR this morning, Emmer volunteered his admiration for Chinese regulatory rules that can get "a hospital built in a month"...

  • Franken to headline Netroots Nation '10

    MN Progressive Project

    Although his election was the very definition of "squeaker," Sen. Franken has managed to thread another needle since taking office: he's demonstrated a commitment to working hard on behalf of all Minnesotans while also being a strong advocate for the progressive policies in which he believes.
