Whatsamatta with Woodhouse?
I’m the government and I just want to keep helping. That’s the sales message coming from Democrats such as Nevada state Sen. Joyce Woodhouse (D-Henderson) up and down the ballot this election cycle. And voters/taxpayers would be insane to keep buying the snake oil.

Without mentioning any names, consider this a teachable moment for you candidates out there.
Mini-Muth’s Truths: July 30, 2010
Voice of America is reporting that “Coalition officials in Afghanistan say they intercepted a message from Afghan Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar, ordering his followers to never surrender and kill any civilians suspected of helping the coalition forces.” Does anyone else remember about nine years ago when a Predator had Mullah Omar’s car in its […]

Mini-Muth’s Truths: July 28, 2010
My apologies for being gone so long. Between the Right Online conservative blogger conference in Las Vegas last weekend and losing my friend Kenny Guinn last Thursday, time just wasn’t on my side. But let’s hop right back in the saddle again, shall we?
Kenny Guinn Was No RINO
Accepting the fact that I will likely be kicked out of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy Club for this, I will nevertheless declare that former Gov. Kenny Guinn – who died last week way, way, way too soon – was no RINO (Republican In Name Only). Here’s why.
Tough School Chief Enacts Tough Merit Pay Reforms….in Washington?
The Clark County school district is looking for a new chief while political candidates up-and-down the ballot bleat about the lousy state of public schools in Nevada. While the left, under the direction of the teachers union, continues to say all it takes to fix the problem is mo’ money, the right points out that […]
Father Floyd
I received an email on Friday from one Floyd Fitzgibbons – the 2009 chapter leader for the John Birch Society and independent candidate for Nevada governor. An excerpt: * Do we need to repent? * Do most of our countrymen worship God, attend some religious service or make prayer a daily part of their lives? […]

Just When You Thought Ensign Had Gone as Low as You Can Go…

Scene and Herd on the Campaign Trail
The Las Vegas Business Press reports that “premiums for certain types of health insurance have started to escalate more rapidly than in recent years even though very few parts of (ObamaCare) have gone into effect.” Gee, who’d of ever predicted THAT would happen?
Pro-Tax GOPers vs. Anti-Tax IAPers
Les McKay, the Independent American Party (IAP) candidate for Assembly District 21, signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge this week. Neither the Republican challenger, Mark Sherwood, nor the Democrat incumbent, Ellen Spiegel, have similarly pledged to the voters of AD 21 that they will not vote to raise taxes if elected. This could be another race […]
The Beach Police
So I took the kids to the beach in San Diego for Independence Day, and what a sad reminder of how badly we’ve let our liberties slip in this country. Everybody was sitting on the beach having a blast – tossing footballs and Frisbees and building sand castles and such – when a pair of […]
We Want More from Sierra Ciara!
Ciara Matthews, communications czarina for the Nevada Republican Party, inked a thoughtful, insightful column on Sen. Harry Reid on Sunday, dispelling the myth that we need his power and position. Not only that, but it was written in plain English, not Washington-speak. Not once did she use the phrases “liberal cronies” or “out of touch.”

Happy Independence Day! Not Happy Fourth of July. Happy Independence Day.
