• Boehner won't commit to budget negotiations with Biden, White House

  Wed Mar 2, 2011
  • Well, gee, Mr Speaker, given the very negative response from Dems to the House's budget plan, it would behoove you to participate in any discussions the Senate has with the White House on the budget they're likely to pass.

• Broun regrets and condemns violent town hall question

  Fri Feb 25, 2011
  • "Regret" is a lame response to the question asked in his town hall. The rep isn't responsible for the questions he's asked, but he IS responsible for his response to them. Condemming it would have been more appropriate.

• 2012: Koch brothers plan to spend $88b

  Fri Feb 11, 2011
  • I would believe the Repubs are against US debt & deficits if it wasn't for how they acted during the Bush years (turning surpluses into deficits), if they hadn't forced the issue of extending tax cuts for the very rich, and if they'd stop relitigating the social issues.

• Kyl becomes latest senator to retire

  Thu Feb 10, 2011
  • Yippeeeee, the "let them eat cake senator from Arizona is retiring! Best news yet. And this guy will receive a golden set of GOVERNMENT BENEFITS. Hope he doesn't get lazy in his retirement, living on the dole.
