Put this guy’s picture next to the word misogynist in the dictionary. Amanda Carpenter has the details at The Conservatives:
Florida Democrat Alan Grayson has a reputation for inflammatory rhetoric, but he took it even further when showing his disdain for Federal Reserve senior advisor Linda Robertson by calling her a “K Street whore” in [...]

Tom DeLay tripped the light fantastic on Dancing with the Stars tonight.  He shook his booty, literally, and had an all around great time.  I’m sure many people who are familiar with DeLay’s reputation in Washington had a number of preconceived ideas of how he’d do. I mean with a nickname like the Hammer, you [...]

This comes from an FBI agency spokesman, so there’s absolutely no doubt about it. The rumors and lies on the left wing blogs that she resigned because she’s the subject of an FBI investigation are just that, rumors and lies:
A day after Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin resigned, a federal official in her home state dismissed [...]

Unfortunately, she’s also these folks’  US representative and they’re finding they are powerless to get her to do something. We may be entering a very frightening era of our country’s history when government officials feel they are unaccountable to anyone, even their neighbors:

A few days ago I told you that former president Jimmy Carter said he was willing to meet with Hezbollah if they were willing to meet with him. I said that it was disgraceful for a former president to deliberately ignore an official government position.  Hezbollah has since told Mr. Carter to pound sand. It’s [...]

This just kills me:
ABC News’ Matthew Jaffe Reports: Two days after his arrest, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is “upbeat,” “positive”, and focused on leading the state of Illinois, not on widespread calls for his resignation, his spokesman said Thursday.
“He was upbeat, he was positive and I think he was trying to at least impart that [...]

This is amazing. Have we ever seen such a spectacle before? A sitting governor and his chief of staff arrested and taken into custody on federal corruption charges. For how long have the Kos Kiddies and the DUmmies dreamt of Karl Rove perp walked for his phantom illegal activities just to have one of their [...]

It’s certainly not a well known portion of the Constitution, but it’s there, clear as crystal. From Article I Section 6:
