Ann Coulter: Romney was not the problem......

 The idea that Romney failed to present a clear contrast with Obama or was too “nice” is also nonsense. If Republicans continue to tell themselves comforting myths about our candidate being the problem, they better get used to losing a lot more elections.

The only Republican to defeat a sitting president in the last century was Ronald Reagan in 1980, when he beat Jimmy Carter, the second-worst president in U.S. history (pending the final results of Obama’s second term). Because of that, and also because he is in the top two best American presidents, Reagan’s example is worth studying.

Mitt Romney: A good man. The right fight........

When much of what passes for a political intelligentsia these days predicted that the selection of Rep. Paul Ryan meant certain death on the third rail of Medicare and Social Security, Mitt Romney brought the fight to the Democrats and made the rational, persuasive case for entitlement reform that conservatives have so desperately needed. The nation listened, thought about it — and on Election Day, Mitt Romney carried seniors by a wide margin. And it’s safe to say that the entitlement discussion will never be the same.

Empty Embrace… Hurricane Sandy Victim Upset After Being Played By Obama .......

"Played" by our President....NO!....Really!?..... I'd dare say his entire Presidency is an "Empty Embrace"....

 I was very excited and felt warm by the embrace thinking this is really going to happen. I’m going to get the help I need because he promised that. I’ve gotten no help. I’ve gotten nothing but ‘No, you’re not covered for this. No, you’re not covered for that.”

West Seeks Emergency Hearing....

Amazing....If people outside your control drag their feet during a re-count- they can put anyone into Office....

Rep. Allen West (R-FL) is seeking an emergency hearing after his challenger, Democrat Patrick Murphy, declared victory in Florida's 18th congressional district race on Sunday. Murphy declared victory after the St. Lucie County canvassing board missed a noon deadline to file its election results.

'Hawaii-Five-0' Bucks Entertainment Trend, Tackles Terrorism.....

Finally SOMEONE in Hollywood with a pair! Book em' Danno!

Monday night’s episode of "Hawaii Five-O," entitled “I Ka Wa Mamua” (“In a Time Past”), proved a rare exception. In addition, it also had a subplot tied to the 9/11 attacks on New York City.

Ryan to Obama: Get 'Revenue Through Growth,' Not Taxes.....

This isn't obstructionist...it's educational. Find out why Class Warfare does NOT work....the House is our last line of defense!



Speaker Boehner has outlined a bipartisan way forward to avoid the "fiscal cliff" and get our economy growing: common-sense entitlement reform coupled with pro-growth tax reform. We can find common ground on responsible spending restraint and greater revenue through economic growth, but we have yet to see either a serious plan or leadership from President Obama. Speaker Boehner and House Republicans have delivered both.

Bill Maher: Racist troglodytes dragging back the GOP.......

LOVE the way he puts words in people's mouths, and so many others will take them verbatim.

 “The racial stuff, that is going to be harder for them,” he said. “I saw right after the election, a number of them, Rush Limbaugh, lamenting the passing of the white demographic. He basically was saying, ‘What do you expect me to be. I’m a racist and a misogynist. You don’t expect me to give that up. What happened to the days, people, when you could speak crap about blacks and Latinos and gays, and they didn’t hold it against you at the polls? I mean, gee, what are we coming to?’”

The Bush Crack-Up.....1993

Interesting read from 1993 considering the outcome of this election and the hysteria that now seems to prevail...

The post-election air over Washington is filled with the cries of disappointed Republicans that George Bush's convincing, yet not overwhelming, defeat could have been averted if only the President and his team had run a better campaign. Even Vice President Quayle, saluting the focused, largely blunder-free race run by Bill Clinton, suggested that a poor campaign was responsible for the Republican ticket's demise. In fact, the seeds of Bush's defeat were sown long before the campaign began, and it is far from clear that even the most brilliant race by Bush could have changed the outcome.

My Spine Has Stiffened......

The conservative movement took it pretty good on the chin earlier this week. President Obama and his liberal allies mobilized their vote and got it out very effectively in the key states. On Tuesday night, as I went to bed, I was extremely down and out. But on Wednesday, as the sun rose, my spine stiffened and it was a brand new day.

Brown Beats Warren in Character.....

And then came a moment largely unprecedented, even in modern politics. "You took on the powerful Wall Street banks and special interests and you let them know you want a senator who will be out there fighting for the middle class all of the time," Warren thundered as her supporters let out their loudest and most forceful cheer. Last night, we witnessed a Harvard Law School professor defeat an Army National Guard Colonel in his own home state and then disparage him in her victory speech.

Allen West: It ain't over til it's over ....

Late last night Congressman West maintained a district-wide lead of nearly 2000 votes until the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections "recounted" thousands of early ballots. Following that "recount" Congressman West trailed by 2,400 votes. In addition, there were numerous other disturbing irregularities reported at polls across St. Lucie County including the doors to polling places being locked when the polls closed, in direct violation of Florida law, thereby preventing the public from witnessing the procedures used to tabulate results.

Ryan returns to House: What next?

Gone are the platitudes that defined Mitt Romney’s campaign. Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Congress will almost certainly have to cut a massive debt and deficit deal with President Barack Obama. And without Ryan’s imprimatur – or at least public approval – any compromise will be a tough sell.

Thank-you Mitt & Paul....

This is exactly how I feel....

I’ll admit it — Mitt wasn’t my guy in the primaries. But when he secured the nomination, I put our few ideological differences aside to join him in supporting the many other things we have in common. As the campaign went on, he grew on me — especially after he plucked Ryan from national obscurity and confronted serious issues lesser men would have never touched (ahem, Barack). He ran a good campaign, a clean campaign. While President Obama disgraced his office with mudslinging class warfare and immature name-calling, Romney kept his eye on the bigger picture: the future of our country.

Brown -- Not Good Enough.....

Really.....Warren has "stature"...really.....OK....if you say so....

In the end, Scott Brown was just too small to be a US Senator from Massachusetts.

Oh, there are plenty of things to say about why the race went the way it did -- and I'll write many of them when I've had a little bit of sleep.

But Massachusetts expects their Senators to be big figures. National figures. People who have purpose and stature.

Elizabeth Warren, whether you like everything she has to say, and whether she ends up being a good Senator, surely qualifies. You know what issues and passions drive her; you sense that she wants to shape the Commonwealth and the country.

You saw her speak in a major prime-time slot at the national convention; you saw her defend her ideas at a Senate hearing; you saw her on 60 Minutes and the cover of Time.

Brown is small, and grew smaller as the campaign progressed.

War More Years.....

With Mitt Romney’s projected defeat in the presidential race tonight, Americans are very clearly divided into two camps.

The first camp is those who want a country of unending bailouts, of free giveaways, of government-provided goods and services – a camp of Americans who want to forfeit the future to guarantee ease and comfort in the present. The second camp is those who understand that that world is unsustainable, who recognize that freedom is the only guarantor of the present and the future.

Biden: ‘President Clinton Bankrupted Chrysler’......

Biden says the ad claims “President Clinton bankrupted Chrysler so that Italians could buy it to ship jobs overseas to China.”

The closing argument ........

Let me recap: If you’re in Brooklyn or Bayonne, Obama said he’s got your back. Just like he had Ambassador Steven’s back in Benghazi. At least, he has your back until Las Vegas calls.

That’s one path, one choice. Rely on Big Government -- expect the central planners and bureaucrats in Washington to know what’s best for you and to deliver it.

The other choice is the one America has historically made. That’s the choice of self-reliance, of neighbor helping neighbor, of people coming together of their own free will to help out when needed. That’s the path of the Red Cross, Mercy Chefs, Catholic and Lutheran Social Services, the Salvation Army and a host of other organizations who deliver more relief to people who need it faster and more efficiently than the government ever could.

Boston Globe Cites 'Character' in Warren Endorsement. Really?.....

Character?!?

You are a “Professor” earning over $300,000 a year to teach one class at Harvard – Good for you! But I want to be clear…

Don’t demigod us about burying our kids with student debt….you and your husband are part of the problem. Costs spiraled upward from 3-7% for Higher Ed last year depending on your colleges profit or non-profit status. The Governments “take-over” of higher ed financing isn’t costing less as “promised” but more ( surprise! ). Additionally putting more Taxpayer dollars at risk during a Recession.…

Harvard pays it’s Professors, “Associate” Professors, and (Whew! ) “Assistant” Professors far above the median faculty salary.

Is college too expensive…probably.

Is the “payoff” there upon graduation, maybe if you applied yourself, worked on your studies 24/7 and choose a field that PAYS well upon completion?

Nobody forces you to take on that ridiculous debt. It’s a choice, and choices have consequences…namely keeping Elizabeth & her husband employed!

You and your Husband have made money legally “Flipping” Real Estate. – Good for you!

But I want to be clear…

Here you are railing against “predatory” foreclosure and banking behavior, while making money off the exact same thing! Per the Herald & Land records from Warren’s native Oklahoma City:

Purchasing a foreclosed home for $61,000 in June 1993, then selling it in December 1994 for $95,000 — a 56 percent mark-up in just 18 months. Buying a house for $30,000 in August 1993, then flipping it for $145,000 — a 383 percent gain after just five months. Lending one of her brothers’ money at 9.5 percent interest to buy a home for $35,000 in August 2000. He sold the place three months later for $38,500 — a 10 percent gain in 75 days. Providing her brother with financing to buy a $25,000 house. in 1994. He sold the property four years later for $42,000, a 68 percent increase.

That’s naming just a few….I dare say this would go under the title of Hypocrisy Howler….

You are hired by large Corporations to fight their legal battles against their everyday employees, and from what I can tell, you did a great job. Well, Good for you! But I want to be clear…

Don’t tell us your out here to “fight” for the “little guy” because we are getting “hammered”….I’d dare say you are one of the one’s holding that very hammer….

And what of Ms. Warren's character, so praised by the Globe in their endorsement?

The dictionary defines character as "qualities of honesty, courage, or the like; integrity."

When it comes to the truth, Ms. Warren has brazenly lied, doubled down on her lies, and tripled down on her double downs for her entire campaign.

Let's start with her lies about her claims of Native American heritage.

Media Slammed Mitt's Food Donations, Now Sandy Victims Plead for... Food Donations......

The Old Media spent several days last week attacking Mitt Romney for his October 30 event in Ohio where he presided over supporters coming together to donate money, clothing, and food for the victims of Hurricane Sandy. Then the food donations were ridiculed. Yet now ABC News is reporting that victims of the storm are calling for food donations from the public.

Paul Ryan Draws Biggest Solo Crowd in Liberal ......

With a new American Future Fund poll showing Mitt Romney with a one-point lead in liberal Minnesota, Paul Ryan went to the state President Barack Obama won by more than 10 percentage points in 2008 and drew a crowd of nearly 9,000 people on Sunday.
