CNSNews.com) – When asked Friday on Capitol Hill about the 10,535 pages of final regulations that have been published in the Federal Register for implementing Obamacare, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) likened them to science fiction. “Well, I think it’s probably analogous to a Stephen King novel, you know, it’s horrifying once they read what these regulations are,” she said. CNSNews.com told Bachmann that it has been asking representatives and senators who voted for the health care law if they had read all 10,535 regulations. CNSNews.com: “I’ve been asking Obama supporters – Obamacare supporters – which of course are Democrats –...

Anti-war Democrats in Congress are getting the band back together. Democrats who made their names opposing the Iraq war are not staying silent as a president of their own party prepares to attack Syria. But they’re not exactly demanding that President Barack Obama stand down from launching airstrikes in the country. Like many Republican lawmakers, they want Congress to authorize any military action there, and are urging the administration to allow a healthy debate on the proper U.S. role — if any — in the dangerous country. But their criticism, at this point, falls short of total condemnation. The anti-war...

A Weston man offended that Ted Nugent is scheduled to make an appearance Aug. 6 at Toad’s Place, says he has contacted the NAACP and will rally to get the show cancelled because of remarks Nugent made regarding the Trayvon Martin case.

The Democratic National Committee is raising a number of eyebrows after choosing to proceed with hosting Islamic “Jumah” prayers for two hours on the Friday of its convention, though it denied a Catholic cardinal’s request to say a prayer at the same event. Watch the promotional video, via the Bureau of Muslim Affairs, which is partnering with the DNC for the event. The first two minutes are rather dry, but around 2:04 a muezzin sings the call to prayer with an American flag background, and the video “picks up” considerably:

Whoever said that Obama hasn’t acomplished anything in his first term? WHAT AN IMPRESSIVE LIST OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS!…             First President to apply for college aid as a foreign student, then deny he was a foreigner. First President to have a social security number from a state he has never lived in. First President to preside over a cut to the credit-rating of the United States.

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) has issued an unlikely challenge to House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio): Drop the tea party. Prominent tea-party-aligned lawmakers, including Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Mike Lee (R-Utah) and House Republican Study Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), have come out against a short-term spending bill proposed by Boehner and other House GOP leaders. And Schumer, who oversees the messaging shop for Senate Democrats, says those lawmakers are standing in the way of a long-term bipartisan compromise on the budget. “These Republicans’ decision to abandon the three-week proposal negotiated by their own party’s leadership suggests that tea party...

A surprising internal poll is casting a spotlight on a previously ignored congressional race in Oregon that may foretell a November bloodbath for Democrats even worse than anyone has imagined. Two years ago, 12-term incumbent Democratic Rep. Peter DeFazio cruised to victory in Oregon's 4th District with 82 percent of the vote. But a survey by Wilson Research Strategies for the conservative group Concerned Taxpayers of America has the Democrat up by only 6 points, 48 to 42, over Republican nominee Art Robinson. The Washington insider publication The Hill opines: "If Robinson, a first-time candidate, is even within 10 points...

It's tough to raise money for an upstart congressional campaign and particularly tough to do so in a down economy, say some of the nine challengers in Maryland's 2nd District race. Their campaign finance reports bear that out: Of the nine, only two reported any income with the Federal Election Commission as of June 30, the most recent filing deadline. "There's the economic situation now, and people with less disposable income, and expenses they're facing," said Robert Imhoff, who volunteers on Democratic challenger Raymond Atkins' campaign. While the challengers may be struggling, it's a different story for incumbent Rep. C.A....

Nobody likes a racist… Nobody likes a race hustler either. On Saturday March 20th the leftist media reported what they described as a horrible story from their sources at the conservative-hating Huffington Post. The media claimed that members of the Congressional Black Caucus were called n*ggers and spat on by tea party protesters as they walked from the Longworth office building to the Rayburn office building. At least one report said that it was “a chorus” of racist hatred. Another report said the Congressional members heard the n-word at least 15 times. Reporters from ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX News, (including...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Ten House Democrats indicated in an Associated Press survey Monday they have not ruled out switching their "no" votes to "yes" on President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, brightening the party's hopes in the face of unyielding Republican opposition. Speaker Nancy Pelosi is struggling to secure enough Democratic votes for approval, thus the effort to attract former foes. Obama .. is expected to embrace a handful of Republican ideas for making health care more efficient. But persuading lawmakers to change their votes is a tough sell. Elected officials are loath to vote two ways on a controversial...

Alaska as Democratic Opportunity?: The soon-to-be official resignation of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) could hand Democrats a legitimate pickup opportunity, according to a recent poll in the Last Frontier obtained by the Fix. The survey, which was conducted by Global Strategy Group, showed Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell (R) at 41 percent to former state Sen. Ethan Berkowitz's (D) 40 percent -- a statistical dead heat. Democrats held the Alaska governorship from 1994 until 2002 as Gov. Tony Knowles (D) benefited from a fractured Republican party and serious independent candidates. As for those who argued that Palin decided to leave...

It’s rumored after her first day in the White House Michelle Obama again decided she would be proud of the United States - but after thinking it over, instead she decided she could have had a V8. Obama is trying to convince the nation it’s easy to be perfect – once he got the hang of it. So far, Obama has committed every fumble except bumping his head on the toilet seat. The environmentalists are becoming increasingly desperate to make their case for global warming. They reported that some of the caribou are changing over early into their seersucker antlers....

The democraps control congress, and Bush is in favor of this bailout- WHY DO THEY NEED REPUBLICANS? For years they have been complaining about how McCain votes with Bush- Now THEY ARE VOTING WITH BUSH.

Senator Barack Obama has launched a full broadside against a best-selling book that attacks him as a Muslim-educated radical Leftist filled with "black rage". In a 41-page document entitled "Unfit for Publication", the Obama campaign rebuts Jerome Corsi's Obama Nation (a play on "abomination") almost point by point. Its faux book cover carries quotations from Time magazine branding the book, which has shot to the top of the New York Times best-seller list, as "trash" and "poisonous crap". The title of the Obama rebuttal is an allusion to Unfit for Command, the book co-written by Corsi that damaged the 2004...
