Politico reports that Senatorial candidate Sharron Angle has been sued by Righthaven LLC. Righthaven is demanding $150K plus ownership of Angle’s campaign website. This action was apparently prompted by independent journalist Steve Friess who pointed out the alleged infringement on Angle’s website to Righthaven’s head attorney. If you’re not familiar with Righthaven, it’s the creation of a Las Vegas attorney who has partnered with the owners of the Las Vegas [...]

What does an anti-human-life atheist do with his spare time? Argue with Christians and pro-lifers of course. This video combines two seperate interviews James Jay Lee did, one in 2008 and the other in 2009: Why is this significant? Because people on the left and right seem eager to dismiss Lee as a “nutjob” whose list of demands proves he was crazy. And indeed from reading his manifesto, one might [...]

Rachel Maddow has been leading a crusade to convince people that Fox News is trying to scare white people. I wonder what she thinks about this story: Des Moines police are trying to determine what led to a series of attacks outside the Iowa State Fairgrounds over the weekend that included the assault of two police officers. At least three people were arrested Friday through early Monday morning. Other arrests [...]

Way back in October of 2007 when candidate Obama’s Presidential aspirations still seemed like a long shot, he appeared at the first ever (and likely last) MTV/MySpace Presidential Forum. Here’s a bit of what he had to say: MTV Shows You know I taught constitutional law for 10 years at the University of Chicago, so…um…your next President will actually believe in the Constitution which you can’t say about your current [...]

The Global Post reports on the situation in Juarez, Mexico which lies just across the border: The city, which lies on the Rio Grande just across from El Paso, Texas, is the murder capital of the world, claiming more than 5,500 killings since January 2008. It is responsible for one-fifth of the more than 25,000 drug-related murders that have occurred in Mexico since 2006 when President Felipe Calderon officially declared [...]

With the news coming out today that President Obama was interested enough in who would succeed him in the Senate that he spoke the night before the election with an intermediary to Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, from the SEIU no less, I think it’s fair to ask once again, when exactly was this photograph taken? I discovered this photo and John posted it here on Verum Serum on December 15, 2008. [...]

Jonathan Strong at the Daily Caller follows up on the story we broke the other day, about a group of legislators and other government officials from Arizona who collaborated with Mexican senators to lodge an official complaint over SB 1070 with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. He was able to solicit a response from State Senator Amanda Aguirre, who led the U.S. delegation: Conservatives have denounced Aguirre’s international law [...]

As one of my favorite bloggers would say, it’s come to this (El Semanario via Google Translate): NOGALES, May 25, 2010 .- To reverse the effects of SB-1070, legislators in Mexico and the U.S. (EU) have agreed to submit an appeal to the Interamerican Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), since this initiative criminalises migration with racial profiling in the state of Arizona. Amanda Aguirre, state Sen. governed by Jan Brewer, [...]

It was the center of a long court battle which was settled just two weeks ago when the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that the cross could stay. Now it has been cut down and removed by liberal vandals: The 6-foot-tall metal structure was removed Sunday night from Sunrise Rock in a lonely stretch of the Mojave National Preserve, said government officials and veterans groups that have been fighting for years [...]

According to the Blog of Legal Times, the Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to vote on Goodwin’s Liu nomination this coming Thursday. Although it appears that Republicans will be able to delay this vote for at least another week, it is a foregone conclusion that Liu will be passed out of committee given that Democrats enjoy a 12-7 member advantage. The real question is when and if Democrats will be [...]

It didn’t go off, thank God. From the NY Times: “It appears to be a car bomb left in a Pathfinder between Seventh and Eighth” Avenues on 45th Street, said Deputy Commissioner Paul J. Browne, the Police Department’s chief spokesman. The device, he said, contained “explosive elements” that included “propane tanks, some kind of powder, gasoline and a timing device.” The car was parked on a street lined with theaters, [...]

Obama’s judicial nominees are always more than meet the eye. In talks with liberal advocacy groups they speculate on the superiority of Latina judges (Sotomayor) or the destructive effects of conservative Chief Justices (Liu). But when questioned by the Senate they transform into strict constructionists faster than bumblebee becomes a Camaro. Robert Chatigny is another example of the type. Nominated for a seat on the 2nd circuit, here he is [...]

This is a few years old now, but since I found it linked on a pro-amnesty Facebook site, and I had never seen it, I thought it was worth throwing up for discussion: It was obviously meant in jest (I think), and really, I shouldn’t find it that offensive given that variations of this joke have been featured in movies and comic routines for decades now. But dammit, I’m having [...]

Rich Miller at the Capitol Fax blog discovered that a redacted court document in the Blagojevich trial wasn’t so redacted. This document includes all sorts of bad news for the President. First up, Rezko: Blagojevich’s lawyers allege that Tony Rezko admitted to violating the law by personally contributing “a large sum of cash” to a public official’s campaign, which the Blagojevich people say is Obama. The lawyers claim that Obama [...]

If the video clip of Bertha Lewis I posted yesterday exposed her disturbing views on the tea party and conservatives in general, as well as her support for genuine socialism, the clip I am going to post here reveals the means by which she and others on the left plan on achieving their radical goals. For all the phony accusations against the Tea Party movement for racism and fomenting violence, if [...]
