On the road to Demon Pass, BHO revealed his primary weakness .. a tendency to dodge, obfuscate and mislead!: The most revealing and important broadcast interview of Barack Obama ever.
Deem-and-Pass: Is Passing the Health Care Bill Really a Bad Idea? “Are you kidding me? Is this what the Revolutionary War was fought for? Is this what the boys on Normandy beach were trying to defend? Is this where we thought we would end up when Obama was speaking so beautifully in Iowa or promising to put away childish things?” David Brooks
Coburn Promises to Hold Future Nominations of Ex-House Democrats - will torpedo any patronage promises!
Rep. Mike Pence: "A minority in congress plus the American people equals a majority … America, we can win this fight": As we move forward, and more come to reject the Unicorn and Pixie dust style of governance ever embraced by the Democrat Party, we will see clearly their frustration.
