Who is this bigoted frigtard?
Marietta tavern owner Mike Norman says the T-shirts he’s peddling, featuring cartoon chimp Curious George peeling a banana, with “Obama in ‘08″ scrolled underneath, are “cute.” But to a coalition of critics, the shirts are an insulting exploitation of racial stereotypes from generations past.
Updated: Bill makes a somewhat valid point - […]

So a special election was called for HD93 due to Ron Sailor’s resignation. Will there have to be special elections in Barry Fleming’s district and the districts of other state reps and state senators who have decided to qualify for different offices? I know at least two other legislators qualified to run against Rep. Barrow […]

Here are two “Pelosi-Obama” attack ads the NRCC paid good money for (to the DC-area consulting firm Sandler-Innocenzi, Inc. for one of ‘em) that are not working out so great for ‘em. First not at all in Louisiana, and now not in a Mississippi Congressional race.
Heck, my kid and her cronies could have whipped-up much better attack ads using […]

In what could be sobering news for the Democrats’ 2006 Lt. Governor nominee, a new Insider Advantage /Majority Opinion poll conducted Sunday night shows former state Rep.

Here’s an excellent, Johnny-on-the-spot interview from Crawford, Texas just this morning by an NBC cameraman. The cameraman turns the camera on, and around, with a documentary producer about just how they “do up” Crawford, TX when Bush is there. And when he’s not for that matter.
This is like the magician revealing to the public how they […]

Good job!

From AJC and Savannah Morning News comes news of cuts to the DeKalb County and Chatham County School Systems.

Is Newt the only Republican who senses those pesky ‘ole winds ‘o change ‘a blowin’? Of course it all could be backdraft from his own hot air, but The Newtster has his pulse right on America, again, in his wicked-clever, backhanded way.
For instance, he’s running around TV Land wagging his finger in the faces of fellow Republicans, saying essentially that Repugs will not get […]

I’ve come to the conclusion that the FairTax no longer represents fundamental pro-growth tax reform.
It has taken me awhile to resolve my feelings for the FairTax. Unlike Indy and others, I think the bill would benefit our economy and country greatly. I think it might be one of the few ways out of this […]

Former Macon Mayor Jack Ellis’ administration has been accused of misusing federal funds and making false statements to government officials, according to a letter to the city from U.S. Attorney Max […]
