    A conservative political action committee is about to unleash a flurry of ads targeting six House Republicans who objected to certifying the Presidential election in January. Among the house members being targeted in the ads are Alabama Republican Representative Mo Brooks, and Northwest Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz. The Republican Accountability Project says among their goals with the ad campaign is to work to unseat those who have tried to overturn a legitimate election and supported impunity for political violence, and to push back against lies and conspiracy theories about widespread voter fraud and “rigged” elections. The ad targeting Mo Brooks...

    Josh Grodin, a spokesman for West, vigorously denied that West was associated with the Outlaws. "Allen is an African American, this bike group doesn't accept black people," he said. "They have a history of racism against black people. "I think it's a political hatchet job," Grodin added. "The Democrats are obviously desperate." Grodin denied West was ever going to attend the Wheels on the Road anniversary rally. "It's never been on Allen's personal schedule to attend that," he said. West is instead set to attend a breast cancer charity motorcycle ride in St. Petersburg on Saturday. The controversy overshadowed West's...

    America does not have a legal-immigration problem. America does have a problem with illegals, and Obama's amnesty, or "path to citizenship," would undermine the rule of law and make it harder for jobless Americans to compete with up to an estimated 20 million newly legalized illegal aliens. It also is consistent for the GOP to oppose Mr. Obama's amnesty as it was for many in the GOP to oppose former President George W. Bush and Sen. John McCain's "path to citizenship." ...the Republican national platform calls for "enforcing the rule of law at the border and throughout the nation" and...

    Citing a lack of interest, the Nevada Republican Party has called off its state convention and will instead pick its delegates to the national convention by private conference call. The state party broke up its original convention in April when supporters of Ron Paul hijacked the proceedings and tried to elect delegates for their candidate to the national GOP convention in September. Party officials tried to reconvene on July 26, but they needed a quorum of 675 and received only 300 RSVPs, according to local reports. “With so many people concerned about the economy, it simply wouldn’t be fair for...

    SUMMARY: If public broadcasting needed fixing, we'd hear about it on NPR and PBS, wouldn't we? They got him! The dirty, no-good, rotten Republican miscreant Kenneth Tomlinson, until recently the chairman of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting - they nailed his sorry conservative hind end to the floor! It's a wonder it took so long. A six-month investigation into this right-wing Clinton appointee's mismanagement of the holy temple of enlightened government culminated this past week with an inspector general's report alleging Tomlinson ignored public broadcasting rules and ethics code, which is sort of bad. But his transgressions were believed to...

    What is a Globalist you might ask? In short they are the people that run the conservatives you have been putting in office under the flag of independence. They are also the people that run the liberals you other guys have been voting in on the other side of the isle. Basically they are the people with the money they printed in hand deciding the big players whom will control those nasty corporations that everyone loves to hate. They are the Captains and Kings of power and illusion that captured the gold of America without firing a single shoot. They...

    Specter sees compromise near on overtime rules Reuters, 11.20.03, 4:31 PM ET By Thomas Ferraro WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A key Republican senator voiced hope Thursday that a compromise would soon be reached on an embattled proposal by the Bush administration to redefine who in the American work force has the right to overtime pay. "I think we are on the verge of getting it done," said Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, who has declined to publicly disclose his possible deal, in a statement. The U.S. Labor Department, which drafted the proposed work rules, had no immediate response. Backers contend the...

    The Public Interest ^ | Fall 2003 | By James Q. Wilson & Karlyn Bowman
    About one-fifth of Americans strongly opposed the war in Iraq. Surveys taken in December 2002 showed that 15 to 20 percent of the public resolutely opposed the war three months before it began, and the numbers remained about as high in April 2003 after the war had been underway for a couple of weeks. While the level of support increased after the war began, the onset of fighting did not budge the war's strongest opponents. This "peace party" became known to the American public through antiwar protests and demonstrations, but media coverage of these events did not tell us much...
