The funny thing is that my participation in Conservative circles has allowed me to know a statistically large number of people who recently have been audited.

The Left: still quite unhinged about Dick Cheney.

By: Moe Lane (Diary)  |  August 30th at 04:00 PM  | 

Former Vice President Dick Cheney… You probably remember him. …anyway, Darth Cheney has a book out today (“In My Time: A Personal and Political Memoir“): and the Left is acting – about as you’d expect, honestly (note that I’m including in that list a bunch of people who are still trying to pretend that they’re not on the Left, these days).  The shrieking is highly | Read More »

Charles Rangel compared President Obama to former Vice President Dick Cheney Saturday for their shared commitment to the Iraq War, one the Harlem Democrat argues is based on the country’s hunger for oil. “I challenge anyone to tell me we aren’t there because of the oil,” said Rangel, who kicks off his | Read More »
