President Obama, Senate Majority Leader Reid, and Speaker Pelosi seemed determined to bend, twist, and subvert the rules and procedures of government — and possibly the Constitution itself — in order to pass Obamacare, which they seem to see as more important than any of those things. Their “whatever is necessary, the ends justifies the […]
If you’re not aware, the title of this post is how members of the United States Senate refer to themselves and their institution. I’d like to see any one of those 60 Democrats say that with a straight face anymore. ..bruce w..

ITEM: Y’all remember the “United Breaks Guitars” music video? Well, here’s a Downfall mashup (above) — possibly one of the best I’ve seen in a while. ITEM: Coming out of the Bryon White Courthouse in downtown Denver this afternoon, I saw this protest going on in front of the Federal Building across the street: In […]
ITEM: I reported earlier one possible end-run by the Senate to pass the increasingly unpopular “public option” in healthcare reform.
