Iowans Will Soon Cull the Republican Herd
With only one day left before the highly-touted Iowa caucuses, the rather pathetic pack of Republican presidential wanna-bees are frantically blanketing every corner of the state in search for votes.

Bachmann Thrown Under Bus by Conservative Group
In the world of Republican politics, there is no lack of conservative groups and media personalities dedicated to enforcing “party doctrine”, and to controlling the purity of conservative thought.

Bachmann Claims No Respect From Media!
The presidential campaign of Michelle Bachmann, the one-time favorite of the Republican Tea Party faction, seems to be unraveling at a rapid pace.

Tea Party Sees Perry as Only Horse Left in the Race
It should come as no surprise to anyone who is following the Republicans’ contest for the presidential nomination, that ultra-conservative Governor Rick Perry‘s “star” has fallen almost as fast as it rose.

Rick Perry Loses Independent Voter Support
It’s beginning to look like the Republicans‘ latest “knight in shining armor”, Rick Perry, loses some of his shine when exposed to the bright camera lights.

Bachmann on Downhill Slide
Sometimes you just have to laugh as fate plays its hand toward the unjust. For a while, things seemed to be going quite well for the two-hand-waving Michele Bachmann, all cheery, smiling, and sounding more literate than Sarah Palin.

GOP Polls Show That Mitt Romney is “Toast”
There is nothing quite as amusing as watching the Republicans “eat their own young” in public .

At that time, it seemed as if the Republican Party …
Save the EPA, and Ditch the Republicans
There are times when it seems like the Republican Party is going out of it’s way to come up with presidential candidates who take positions that are completely contrary to basic American values, and totally extreme in their political orientation. One of the recent targets of the right-wingers is the Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA. As a child growing up …
Bachmann Says Blacks Were Better Off As Slaves
Ever since declaring her intention to seek her party’s nomination for President in 2012, Minnesota Republican Michele Bachmann has made it crystal clear that she is the only candidate that represents the ultra right-wing interests of the Tea Party Movement.

Bachmann Says “Let Them Eat Cake” as America Faces Debt Crisis
In a recent interview presidential hopeful, Michele Bachmann, was asked about the deadlocked discussions between the Republicans and the Democrats over raising the U.S. debt limit ceiling.
