Paul Ryan, SOB (Son of Boehner)
If you are a film lover like I am, you are familiar with the “son of” films. Son of Kong (1933), Son of Frankenstein (1939), Son of Dracula (1943), and Son of Dr. Jekyll (1951) come to mind. There was also Son of Flubber (1963), but that’s a different genre. They were cheap

Five Reasons Why It’s Easy Being a Democrat

Obama Says Sex Act Trumps Religious Freedom

Speaker John Boehner Set to Retire from Congress in October
I thought I was dreaming when I heard the news. John Boehner is going to retire at the end of October. Maybe that’s why he was crying as the Pope spoke. Boehner knew his days were numbered. It couldn’t come at a better time. With Boehner gone, the Democrats won’t

John Boehner Fights for Mount McKinley but Nothing Else
John Boehner is really angry with President Obama because of his latest assault on America. Obama has decided to change the name of Mount McKinley to Denali, the traditional name for the “Great One.” “For many in the state of Alaska, Sunday was a day for rejoicing. But for Ohioans such

John Boehner Supports Foreign Power While Dismissing Own Party

Rep. Mick Mulvaney Offers Up Lame Excuses Why He and Others Voted for Boehner
A number of newly elected Republican Congressmen and women voted for John Boehner for speaker after they ran a campaign opposing the GOP leadership.

Boehner Could Have Been Defeated if Georgia Republicans Voted Right
I’m embarrassed that Georgia Republicans voted for John Boehner for Speaker of the House of Representatives. “New Republican Reps. Barry Loudermilk of Cassville and Jody Hice of Monroe campaigned on bringing new leadership to the House and leveled voice votes against Boehner in a closed-door November vote. But before a packed

Is It Time to Abandon the Republican Party?
We’re hearing about third parties again. Mark Levin has said that “he’s one inch away from leaving” the Republican Party. Matt Barber has written “I Am No Longer a Republican.” In the second paragraph of his article (you can read it here on Godfather Politics), he writes: “Even before the

Are Blackmail Reports About John Boehner True?
This story might explain a lot. Matt Drudge tweeted: “Spending bill passed because NSA has ‘dirt’ on speaker.” Is there blackmail behind John Boehner’s easy capitulation to Obama and the passage of the pork-laden, government controlling CROmibus bill? Does Obama know something about Boehner that we don’t know? There was

This Is What Happens When You Don’t Read the Bills
What’s going to happen when eager newbies, who were voted into office to bring fundamental change to Washington, alter the political process, and dilute the Establishment Republican stranglehold on policy issues get seduced by GOP leaders who have shown themselves to be corrupt over and over again. Consider this latest

1648-Page Defense Authorization Bill Creates Six National Parks
“What Makes You Think We Read the Bills? was the tongue-in-cheek title of a book written about 30 years ago by long-time California lawmaker H. L. ‘Bill’ Richardson. The book is a chronicle of slip-ups, snafus and shenanigans from our national and state capitols. The stories are amusing but also outrageous.

Republican Sour Grapes Instead of Real Solutions
Arit John at Bloomberg.com reported on an interesting suggestion presented to the Republicans by the editor of National Review, Rich Lowry. He said that if he were John Boehner, “I’d say to the president: ‘Send us your State of the Union in writing. You’re not welcome in our chamber.’” Evidently

John Boehner Works With GOP-Hating Nancy Pelosi
When will Republicans learn that the Democrats hate them and that there is nothing that Republicans can do to mitigate the hate except to surrender to their lust for more political power? The only thing that will satisfy a Democrat like Nancy Pelosi is full submission to liberalism. Boehner knows

Omen for 2014 Election?: Republican Kevin Faulconer Wins Big in San Diego
Does the recent election of a Republican for mayor of San Diego indicate what might happen in the upcoming 2014 election? “A pro-business Republican candidate was elected San Diego’s new mayor after a special election to replace Bob [Filthy] Filner, a disgraced Democrat ousted last year. With results in from

The Reason GOP is Not Going after the IRS for Harassing Tea Party Groups
Two seemingly unrelated articles caught my attention. Here’s the first one: “Wall Street Journal columnist Kimberly Strassel noted on Friday [Dec. 13] that Barack Obama and the IRS have a new plan to target Tea Party groups in advance of the 2014 elections. During Thanksgiving week, the Treasury Department announced
