    Sen. Pryor Says He Will Join Sen. Harry Reid In Shutting Down The Senate If Liberals Lose Filibuster Vote Sen. Mark Pryor says he will join Democratic Minority Leader Harry Reid in shutting down the Senate should liberals lose the vote to shut off their filibuster of judicial nominees. Pryor told the Associated Press, when asked if he would support Sen. Reid's retaliation: "I would only want to see us do that as a last resort. If that's what it comes to, that's what it comes to." Sen. Pryor's Washington office number is 202-224-2353. His District office in Little Rock...

    Follow is a list of the US Congressmen and Senators that officially acted to intimidate, threaten, and suppress the broadcast of Stolen Honor by Sinclair Broadcasting. They, along with their agents who threatened advertisers, sued shareholders, and ginned up false 'public outrage', and with the deafening SILENCE of the corrupt liberal media, succeeded in suppressing the free speech of decorated war veterans.

    Senator Lincoln figures that Arkansas voters will not remember in November By Donald E. Wildmon, Founder and Chairman, American Family Association Arkansas Senators Blanche Lincoln and Mark Pryor recently voted to legalize homosexual marriage. Now, they will tell you that is not true. But if you take away all the rhetoric and put the issue of their voting against the Federal Marriage Amendment down to the bottom line, that is clearly what they did. They opposed marriage as being only between one man and one woman. They voted to use America's children as guinea pigs in a grand social experiment...

    The hard life of southern Democratic senators trying to please both sides Blanche: she does if you say “Holmes” WHEN a group of about 150 leftish thinkers crowded into a Little Rock auditorium recently to talk about federal judgeships, some wag joked that they were the only liberals left in the state. Fearing this may be so, organisations such as the Sierra Club, the National Organisation for Women, the Alliance for Justice, Planned Parenthood and various trade unions are planning to pour money into the state. On June 4th, they will hold the first of a series of town-hall meetings...

    Speak Spanish? Know someone who does? If so, you might want to pick up a copy of El Latino, the Spanish-language weekly that is a member of the Arkansas Times family. This week's issue will include an exclusive interview with the Mexican woman who became an issue in the final hours of the race for U.S. Senate. She once worked as domestic help for Attorney General Mark Pryor. Republicans raised questions about whether she was a legal alien and whether Pryor had been required to pay Social Security and Medicare taxes as her employer. Pryor said there'd been no wrongdoing....

  • Still in Doubt, Fight for Senate Grows Feverish

    WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 — State polls showing that more than half a dozen Senate seats were still within either party's grasp prompted Republicans and Democrats today to intensify their feverish campaigns for control of the chamber. Seeking to influence the truly undecided voters — and to make sure those who have made up their minds go to the polls — both parties marshaled volunteers to ring doorbells and hand out leaflets. They also paraded big-name politicians and star-quality supporters before the cameras and drowned out commercials for consumer goods with advertisements extolling their candidates and assailing their opponents. Politicians and...

    Democrats face an uphill battle to recapture control of the House in November's midterm elections, while Republicans have marginally improved their position in what remains a tense and wide-open fight for control of the Senate, according to party strategists, independent analysts and current polls. September has seen Republican prospects brighten, particularly in New Jersey, where ethics problems have called into question what once seemed solid reelection prospects for Sen. Robert G. Torricelli, the most vulnerable Democrat in the nation. Republicans also have increased their chances of retaining the Senate seat in New Hampshire. And because of a controversy over a...

    Excerpt - A former president without honor in his own land? Westchester, New York's Bill Clinton will travel to his native Arkansas next week to a somewhat ambivalent reception. The Arkansas Democratic Party announced that Clinton, a former Arkansas governor, will attend a "Countdown to Victory" rally in West Memphis on Monday featuring "Arkansas's Democratic statewide candidates." Turns out that the marquee name among Democratic statewide candidates, Senate nominee Mark Pryor, has sent his regrets.
