In the U.S., the politics of the left versus the right rolls on with the predictability of traffic jams at the George Washington Bridge. It’s a lot of honking. Until now.

People fingered as out of line with the far left’s increasingly bizarre claims are being hit and hit hard.   Continue reading “Obama Unleashes the Left”

Nj.com is running a poll.   As with most polls concerning Second Amendment supporters, it is running strongly in favor of the right to be armed.   What is a little unusual about this poll is that it directly connects the recent Supreme Court decision not to hear the Drake case from New Jersey, that was all about being able to carry a weapon outside of the home, to the poll.  What is nasty about the New Jersey decision is  U.S. District Judge William Walls simply claiming that:

WASHINGTON — In the name of protecting Americans’ rights against government abuses, the House of Representatives voted Wednesday to hold a former IRS official in contempt of Congress for asserting her constitutional right against self-incrimination.

Lois Lerner, who led the IRS division in charge of approving applications from political social welfare groups for tax-exempt status, twice invoked the Fifth Amendment in refusing to testify to the House Oversight Committee beyond asserting her innocence.   Continue reading “Congress Holds Lois Lerner In Contempt In IRS Targeting Probe”
