There is always talk about forming a third party or third party candidates or the effects of various third party candidates on the electoral process over the years. But actually the United States has already devolved into a third party political environment over the past 6 or 8 years and it has never become more […]
Get Over It, You Lost
Common theme post-November 8th from the GOP and Trump camp followers.
Tea Party Radio Squawker Goes Over The Edge
Jay Weber of WISN AM radio got just a little out there recently when taking about the prescription pain killer problem at the Tomah VA hospital and Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin and the slow reaction by anyone to solve the issue:

Donald J. Trump arrived at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner in April 2011, reveling in the moment as he mingled with the political luminaries who gathered at the Washington […]
Since Scott Walker’s Wisconsin often resembles Sam Brownback’s Kansas…a win by Judge JoAnne Kloppenburg might upset the current conservative majority on Wisconsin’s Supreme Court…we might see the Wisconsin legislature take up a Kansas proposal one more time. Like relaxing the requirements to impeach judges:
A bill declaring that Kansas Supreme Court justices can be […]
In their first approval of a nominee of President Obama since retaking the majority in the Senate, the Senate Banking Committee led by Alabama Republican Richard Shelby confirmed Adam Szubin to a post in the Treasury Department.
