Senate Minority Whip Eric Cantor is right. After all these acts of political violence against Democrats should be kept quiet and not discussed. It’s the Democrats own fault they are occurring because they keep talking about them. Here’s his statement: Just recently I have been directly threatened. A bullet was shot through the window of my campaign office in Richmond […]

As I wrote yesterday, Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox, also a Republican candidate for governor, has joined in a lawsuit with 12 other state Attorneys General that contends the health insurance reform LAW is unconstitutional. This has made Governor Michigan Jennifer Granholm very unhappy. So, in her capacity as governor, she has directed Cox to intervene on behalf of the […]

Holy Awesome Linkage, Batman! Eclectablog got linked on The MaddowBlog yesterday!

Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox is joining 12 other state Attorneys General across the country in a suit claiming the new federal health-care reform LAW is unconstitutional.

But hey, guys, knock yourselves out, right? And that’s just what the GOPosaurs in my district […]

Taking a cue from the Frank Luntz School of Media Savvy, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) sent out an rather interesting email this past weekend. It says, in part: Washington – Despite a myriad of polls showing that a vote in favor of a government takeover of healthcare would be directly at odds with the interests and values of […]

He is encouraging his supporters to send Nancy Pelosi a bomb for her birthday. This same imaging shows up as a pop-up on his website when you first enter it. Oh, sure, it’s all tongue in […]

I’m taking a day off from being a grownup. In fact, I’m acting childish today. On my way to work, as I drove past the home of the man (Mark Koernke) who placed “Buy Gasmasks Now!” and “Buy more Ammo NOW!” signs in front of his house the day after the 2008 presidential elections, I let my Eff Flag fly […]
