Posted on July 27th, 2011

During the last distraction of ‘Weinergate‘, then CIA Head Leon Panetta had his Senate confirmation hearing for head of the Department of Defense. Normally that would gather attention, but it was Weinergate that soaked up all the headlines.

Issa has eye on subpoena team

Posted on June 18th, 2010

HERSHEY, Pa.— Rep. Darrell Issa, the conservative firebrand whose specialty is lobbing corruption allegations at the Obama White House, is making plans to hire dozens of subpoena-wielding investigators if Republicans win the House this fall.

The Coming Resignation of Barack Obama

Posted on June 2nd, 2010

By Peter Ferrara Months ago, I predicted in this column that President Obama would so discredit himself in office that he wouldn’t even be on the ballot in 2012, let alone have a prayer of being reelected. Like President Johnson in 1968, who had won a much bigger victory four years previously than Obama did [...]

Posted on February 26th, 2010

By: Ed Lasky The Obama administration is seeking to exclude from federal oversight its new $30 billion dollar small-business lending program. Obama’s rhetoric about transparency during the campaign was as phony as his vow to end the era of lobbying (last year was that industry’s best year ever in Washington). David Cho writes in the [...]

ACORN Goes for Broke

Posted on November 16th, 2009

ACORN may have to file for bankruptcy protection before Christmas, ACORN insiders say. “They may have to file for bankruptcy if they don’t have several big pending grants approved or get emergency loans,” a highly placed ACORN source told me over the weekend.
