I don't think Congress should begin impeachment proceedings against President Obama right now, but I also don't think that considering the idea is "crazy talk." The man has, in my view and that of many others, committed multitudinous impeachable offenses, and we need to strenuously object and bring it to the public's attention every chance we get. The idea of turning our heads and looking the other way is repugnant. Yes, the elections are too close for Republicans to risk impeachment proceedings at this point, unless it became clear that the majority of Americans have the political will for that...

This is an open letter to Congressman John Boehner the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Mister Boehner where are you? How long can you hide and ignore the inexorable march toward the destruction of our country? Don’t you care about our safety sir? Isn’t this your country as well as our country? Our southern border has hit critical mass in its descent into chaos and de facto anarchy. Thousands of diseased illegal aliens, most of whom are children needing immediate twenty four hour care and attention, are pouring over our now erased border with Mexico. Many of the other...

In true Tokyo Rose fashion the Republican wing of Uniparty has sent Ann “Skeletor” Coulter on a psy-ops mission to try to save Thad Cochran one of their oldest and most reliable rubber stamps. Skeletor moans about Chris McDaniel’s supporters not being able to “think of anything but winning this one primary…” as if that is a bad thing. Being of the Republican wing of Uniparty she doesn’t give a damn about America – that’s not what her side is about – she only cares about seeing that those who stand in the way of big government are defeated. “Vote...

During his first inaugural address in 1981, President Ronald Reagan made the famous declaration when referring to the Democrats reliance on the federal government to solve the ills of the nation stating, "Government is not the solution to our problems, government is the problem." While I hardly consider myself worthy to disagree with the Gipper, I do believe myself qualified to say what I feel was at the heart of this statement, although phrased as it was for the sake decorum of the moment and the national audience. Nearly all problems related to government as well as the overall decline...

True The Vote (TTV) a front line fighter for Americans’ voting rights has filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court aimed at protecting the rights of American voters in Mississippi. The suit demands the Republican wing of Uniparty in Mississippi be immediately restrained from any “further tampering, redaction, or destruction of voter records by Defendants or their agents.” The filing continues with, “Defendant county commissioners have continued to violate federal law by preventing access to election records. Now, we think we know why. If the affidavits we now have regarding the destruction of election documents and other similarly stunning affidavits...

We tried. We really did try as hard as we could. Over the past 238 years we have poured out the lives of generations of our young men and women to defend our liberties. We have willingly sacrificed our treasure and our tears fighting to keep the wolves of tranny away from our door. But unless we change course now we will die on the battlefield of Good versus Evil. Today we find ourselves looking more like the patriots who were overwhelmed at The Alamo and crushed at Corregidor, than the brave signers of our Declaration of Independence. Try as...

If Washington Times editor Drew Johnson was alive and writing in 1781 he would undoubtedly have made as big a fool of himself while reporting on the progress of the original TEA party’s revolt against England as he did last week. Mr. Johnson is to be pitied because he clearly doesn’t understand the wisdom of the saying “It is better to be thought a fool and remain silent than to speak up and remove all doubt.” Last week poor addled Mr. Johnson removed all doubt about his competence with his obituary for the TEA party movement. He claimed it is...

Things have just turned very sour for the GOPe and Thad Cochran. Angered by the fact that Thad Cochran’s camp stiffed him after he helped them commit a massive voter fraud in the GOP primary, a Black Mississippi minister, the Reverend Stevie Fielder of the First Union Missionary Baptist Church, has come forward to admit his part in the crimes and he is naming names. Fielder says that acting in concert with Saleem Baird of the Cochran camp he agreed to pay $15.00 to Black Democrats who crossed over to vote for Cochran in last month’s runoff against Chris McDaniel....

Further evidence of an erosion in confidence among the traditionally Democratic Party voting base, a major Latino Political Action Committee in San Diego, California has shifted course and given its endorsement to two GOP challengers facing Democrat incumbents in November's Congressional elections. The Latino American Political Association (LAPA) has formally endorsed Republican Carl DeMaio in his bid to unseat Scott Peters for California's 52nd District and also thrown their weight behind GOP challenger Larry Wilske in his quest to oust Democrat Susan Davis in the 53rd. Carl DeMaio The San Diego-based PAC is an officially non-partisan group which has largely...

The two leading contenders to replace amnesty guy Eric Cantor are making the ALIPAC list of 49 traitors in the Republican dominated House of Representatives, with the head of Americans for Legal Immigration, William Gheen still holding out on Jeb Hensarling. “No opinion yet on Hensarling,” Gheen told CiR late Wednesday. Gheen just completed putting together the contact information and proof of amnesty quotes on all of the 49 lawmakers at his Traitor List thread. And, in case you already didn’t know where Paul Ryan (R-WI) stands, here’s the money guru’s quote: I do support what (Gang of 7) are...

The reaction of Republican political consultants raises a question: Which group is more dangerous to the future of America; those who insist amnesty will “save” the GOP, or those who insist crippling our economy because of “man-made climate change” will “save” America? Last week Eric Cantor, the heir apparent to John Boehner’s Speaker’s Gavel, was defeated because of a number of factors but to the average Republican voter, because of the persistent feeling that he was ready to spring amnesty on us the day after he won re-nomination. His team of political consultants cannot allow this explanation to stand and...

In the wake of Eric Cantor's shocking primary election loss to Dave Brat earlier this week, the choice to replace him as House Majority Leader seemed a foregone conclusion, as Pete Sessions (R-TX) decision to bow out appeared to seal the decision and ascend Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) to the second highest position in the House. This changed yesterday as Raul Labrador (R-ID) announced he will challenge for the role, a move Dignitas News Service both applauds and has no reservations in providing our endorsement for. Not only would the second-term Representative from Idaho bring solid conservative credentials and voting record...

The learning curve for those who don’t work in politics or who are relatively new to politics can be steep. Often that learning is never accomplished because of the time needed to digest the huge amount of data that’s important. Even many people within the informed “choir” regularly misjudge things because they’re unfamiliar with the players behind the scenes. “Personnel is policy” is not a cliché, it’s a reality. There are organizations which are well known, have a great name and mission statement, but don’t necessarily deserve the reputation they have. RedState.com’s Erick Erickson made an important point this week...

Concerned that DC Republicans might begin listening to voters rather than Karl Rove, an always sympathetic White House told stunned GOP leaders that “Cantor’s problem wasn’t his position on immigration reform, it was his lack of a position.” That is, Cantor wasn’t too liberal and he had not offended the conservative, Republican base with his promise of passing amnesty or his contemptuous decision to headline an April conference hosted by George Soros and organized labor. In fact if anything, the now defunct Virginia congressman had been TOO conservative! After all, hadn’t Cantor’s campaign sent out direct-mail pieces just before last...

As the 2014 primary season draws to a close and focus shifts to the November general elections, the GOP is poised to capitalize on a demoralized Democratic Party, beset by scandal and a legislative agenda that has been largely proven a failure in improving the lives of Americans both nationally and on state and local levels. With most polls pointing to huge gains for the party of Lincoln, including a better than even-money shot at taking the Senate, Democrats have little to pin their hopes to other than an escalation of inner-party turmoil in the so-called GOP "civil war." This...

Oh, how sweet it is, karma, that is. Will the Florida Democrats lose congressional seats they fought bitterly to win? Will another round in another Florida courtroom be yet another Democrat demise in a fight they may wish they never started? Will their darling, National Democratic Chairwoman, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-Weston) (W-S) and their Pelosi pup, Patrick Murphy, the youngest guy in Congress, be tossed under wheels of a bus that may go bust? There is a courtroom battle brewing that could be the mother-in-law of all Florida political battles as Circuit Court Judge Terry Lewis prepares to hear the Democrat...

Beset by scandals on both the national and statewide level, Democrats find themselves in danger of historic losses in the 2014 midterms, as in addition to the "angry white males" they find themselves facing a new threat, that of the "angry young black male." A growing trend of young black makes defecting to the GOP has caused fears among Democratic Party officials who have largely ignored the concerns of a constituency that has been loyal for decades. It is ironic that with the election of the first African-American President, the party that garners roughly 90% of the black vote finds...

“Money Talks in Tallahassee” could be the swan song of the 2014 session of the Florida Legislature as RINOs saw fit to donate $2 million to a non-profit sex abuse charity headed up by a close relative of Florida lobbyist Ron Book. (1) These Republican elites have also agreed to provide illegal Dreamers much cheaper, in-state tuition rates to attend Florida universities. BUT, state senate powerhouse Joe Negron, pushed aside help for Florida homeowners! Though Hispanic legislative leader Joe Negron could not find time to address the issue of regulating Florida’s rapidly growing drug rehab industry, he was able to...
