September 11th, 2008 · No Comments
Sen. Bond pictured here in 1998 with former St. Louis NAACP head Charles Mischeaux As we look back in extreme sadness on that terrible day seven years ago, we think we understand why Jay Nixon doesn’t want to talk about his record at today’s gubernatorial debate. While Senator Bond understood (three years before 911!) the […]

September 11th, 2008 · No Comments

Change You can Believe In – When The Cameras Are On
September 8th, 2008 · No Comments
As Senator Obama’s surrogate, Sen. McCaskill has faithfully regurgitated Obama’s change mantra almost ad nauseum these last few months. She even managed to slip it in several times during her convention keynote speech: “I have seen Barack Obama in the Senate, and I’ve been by his side on the campaign trail. I know he will […]

Now That Obama is Behind, Polls Are Questioned
September 8th, 2008 · No Comments
We find it ironic that now that the shine continues to wear off the Barack Obama fool’s gold campaign of change, the libs now want to start questioning polls and their methodologies.
