Busy Little Lame Ducks

Congress is a lame duck.  According to Phrase Finder, that means "A person or thing that isn't properly able to function, especially one that was previously proficient."  Pretty self explanatory.  For Congress that means they aren't supposed to accomplish anything over the remainder of their session.  But this Congress isn't like that.  At all.  In fact they are busy little lame ducks.

Pelosi and the swamp monster

Don't neglect my other blog, like I have.

A short post on the implications of Pelosi's comments on draining the swamp, Rangel (and Waters) and the implications for November.

It's a Good News Day for the GOP

Rasmussen Reports has a number of good news items today - the generic Congressional ballot of likely voters has the GOP up 10 points, and the Obama approval index is at -20.  But the good news doesn't stop there.

Charlie Rangel - Tax Cheat?

As I asked months ago, is there any Democrat that ISN'T cheating on their taxes? In Rangel's case, it's his Congressional disclosure form. The New York Times had the story that Rangel,Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, failed to declare $500,000 in assets in 2007.

It's not exactly a tax cheat, but it certainly isn't honest. I don't think anyone on either side of the political spectrum expects honesty out of Rangel. He's in a safe Democrat district. It just is what it is.

Nevertheless, it bears pointing out. Every pebble of dirt is still dirt. Every tarnishing of the undeserved Democrat image as the party of honest any full disclosure should be brought to light. Eventually they will be dragged back to reality by the preponderance of the evidence.

Liberal Captions

Below are some movie quotes that you could associate with various liberals. Please add your own in the comments section. I don't get too many comments, but any feedback is appreciated, especially when it pokes fun at Democrats.

Added bonus, I can't recall which website I read this on, but it might have been Protein Wisdom. [Sorry, let me know and I'll update the link]. "The Secret To Being A Liberal Hysteric? No secret: just treat adults like children, and treat children like adults."

My precious.

Say hello to my little friend. (Okay, little kid)

You don't understand! I coulda had class. I
coulda been a contender. I could've been
somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am.

You talking to me?

A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his
liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.

You can't handle the truth!

Mama always said life was like a box of
chocolates.

I'll be back.

I see dead people.

We rob banks.

I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse.

E.T. phone home.

"I just want to say one word to you - just one word.... 'plastics.'"

"Badges? We ain't got no badges! We don't need no badges! I don't have to show you any stinking badges!" (That's just wrong)

"Surely you can't be serious."

"I am serious. And don't call me Shirley."

Show me the money!

What we've got here is failure to communicate.
