Wiley Might Quit, or Wiley Might Not
U.S. Senate candidate Mike Wiley (R-Pluto) seems to be (a) having trouble understanding plain English, and (b) keeping track of all of the drivel he writes.
Drive-By Nevada Muthings – December 22, 2009
Mike Wiley sent out an email this week indicating he might not run for the United States Senate in the Nevada GOP primary after all. NO!!!! Every court needs a jester. Every party needs a pooper. Every village needs an idiot. And this race needs you, Mike Wiley! Suck it up, son.
Olympia’s Snowe Job
Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-ME) announced on today that she was not going to support the Senate’s health care bill because it’s being rushed-through to meet Harry Reid’s artificial deadline. And that really pisses me off.
Harry Reid’s Christmas Eve Screw Job
Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) – recipient of the now-infamous $300,000 million “Louisiana Purchase” of her vote on ObamaCare – went on Face the Nation on today and said the following about the prospect of a Christmas Eve final vote on the Senate version of the bill:
The Fortunes of Nevada will Rise or Fall without Harry Reid in the Senate
About the only real argument for the re-election of Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nevada, is his position as Senate majority leader. But if that’s all he’s got, he hasn’t got much. No politician in America is indispensable. Or irreplaceable.
Government Health Care Can Still Be Stopped!
ALERT: DON’T GIVE UP! That’s the message from Congressman John Shadegg, a leading voice in the fight against Harry Reid and Nancy’s Pelosi’s efforts to shove ObamaCare up the nation’s wazoo.
A Forced Gesture
Assembly Republicans declared this week that they were taking a voluntary 4.6 percent pay cut to show solidarity with state employees who had their pay reduced by the 2009 Legislature. “A promise made, a promise kept,” boasted Assembly Minority Leader Heidi Gansert in the first and only press release coming out of her shop since […]
The Full Monte
Has the final nail been driven into Gov. Jim Gibbons’ political coffin?
Having a Gay, Ol’ Time at CPAC
Bryan Fischer, director of issue analysis for the American Family Association, is throwing a hissy fit over a gay Republican organization, GOProud, co-sponsoring next year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, DC, scheduled for February 18-20.
Drive-By Muthings – December 12, 2009
Correction: In a recent column, I criticized Assemblyman Tom Grady (R-Yerington) for voting for AB 433 last session. He did. However, he voted for the bill BEFORE it was amended by Sen. Dennis “Nanny Stater” Nolan to include a provision making failure to wear a seatbelt a primary offense. The amended bill never made it […]
Save the SEALs!
Many of you have written asking me what you can do to help the three Navy SEALs who are facing charges for allegedly splitting the lip and punching in the stomach of one of the world’s most-wanted terrorists after they captured him in Iraq in September. But before I get to that, here’s an update […]
As the Ensign Turns
In his exclusive interview with Alan Stock on KXNT radio on Monday, Sen. John Ensign said he would not resign because “We only have 40 US senators. The Democrats have 60. Another senate race here would take resources from defeating Democrats in states across the country. We need to increase, not decrease our numbers.”
Born Again Tax Champ
State Sen. Mark Amodei (R-Carson City) has felt the heat and seen the light.
Nuttier than Grandma’s Fruitcake
Mike Wiley – a Republican joke of a candidate for U.S. Senate and a man genuinely cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs – didn’t like what Rolando Larraz of the Las Vegas Tribune wrote regarding a failure by the Las Vegas Review Journal to mention fellow GOP candidate Sharron Angle in a recent column.
Ensign’s BS
Of all the unbelievable flapdoodle Sen. John Ensign (R-Nevada) spit out in his interview with Alan Stock on KXNT radio yesterday morning, the notion that he’s helping the Republican Party by not resigning so the GOP can focus on taking out Harry Reid without the distraction of two U.S. Senate campaigns on he ballot really […]
Catholic Bishops & Illegal Aliens
As far as illegal aliens being able to access the proposed health insurance “exchanges,” the House version of the bill gives ‘em a green light. But Dan Carter of Air America claims the Catholic Church “has declined take up the cause for undocumented workers in the Senate.” Not true. (I’m shocked! Air America is usually […]
Health Care Reform and the Illegal Alien
HEALTH CARE FOR ILLEGALS VERY EXPENSIVE: “Illegal immigrants, meanwhile, are more likely to seek health-care at a hospital emergency room, according to both the CIS and the Pew Hispanic Center. . . . The Center for Immigration Studies, meanwhile, estimates that each year taxpayers – federal, state and local — end up paying more than […]
