I am outraged.
I cannot believe that RPI chairman Matt Strawn is planting a subliminal floating cross in his “Merry Christmas” message. How dare he try to sneak a Christian symbol into a public message in which he openly wishes people a Merry Christmas.

So, I have to say that this whole Ben Nelson thing is really eating at me.
I find it interesting how good ‘ol Ben is at getting favors from his friends. I mean, he’s getting fully federally funded Medicaid and a whole bunch [...]

So, Ben Nelson holds out on casting his vote for “healthcare reform” (supposedly on principle), and then he proves he has no principles when he literally sells his vote in exchange for tons of pork for his home state of Nebraska.
So Ben, how much [...]

I have to say, sometimes it gets a little depressing writing about how the world is going to hell in a handbasket on a daily basis, and as Christmas is approaching, I’ve been getting a little lazy, so, instead of more doom and gloom (i.e. [...]

I wonder if David Chung is kicking himself now that Christian Fong is out of the governor’s race for resigning his seat on the State Central Committee to actively support Fong in the primary?
Speaking of the SCC, anybody heard a vote count on the [...]

Carhart Picking Up Where Tiller Left Off
So, the famed Nebraska baby-killer is promising to do more late term abortions to make up for those his dead friend from Kansas can no longer kill.
Geesh, I’m glad they got that straightened out. For a second there [...]

In case you didn’t know, today is actually an election day. That’s right, there are several municipal run-off elections taking place today, including one that could potentially unseat a living legend of the Des Moines City Council, Tom Vlassis.
And by “living legend,” I mean living [...]

You know all of those people who are totally fine with pulling the plug on people in “vegetative states?”
Remember how the pro-life groups who oppose pulling the plug in such cases are always accused of being a bunch of Bible thumping, scientifically stupid, flat-earth imbeciles?

Terry, Terry, Terry… how many chances are you going to need before you finally get it right?
I’m glad to hear (again) that you signed Iowa’s defense of marriage law and that you would support an amendment defining marriage as a union between one man and [...]
