Barney Frank not seeking re-election in 2012 – CNN.com.
Democrat Congressman Barney Frank of Massachusetts is not seeking reelection in 2012. After “serving” 16 terms and much destruction of the banking and housing industries, as well as Jerry Springer style scandals, we are losing one of America’s leftmost congressmen.
There is a reason to give thanks.
Barney will announce during a press conference at 1 pm today, says CNN.
SBA List v. Driehaus: The lawsuit that led the ACLU to side with a pro-life group « Hot Air.
Sore Loser, Democrat Steve Driehaus, of Cincinnati Ohio is still pressing his lawsuit against the Susan B. Anthony List for running an ad against him for the 2010 election.
Yes, Obamacare funds and supports abortion, and we know this from the Dems refusal to allow amendments to remove it. the SBA list ran campaign ads revealing that Driehaus, who claimed to be prolife, was supporting abortion by supporting Obamacare.
Finally the Protect Life Act has passed the new, Republican dominated Congress, which would eliminate Obamacare funding for abortion. You can count on Obama to refuse to sign it.
Driehaus is using a false statement law in Ohio to sue the SBA list for the (correct) campaign ads, and his case will go to trial in Federal court. The ACLU is actually siding with the SBA list on this case, knowing that such suppression of political speech would put them out of business.
An appeal of the original judgment in this lawsuit has been filed with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Yes, Rep. David Wu was acting too strange for his staff’s comfort, and now he’s on meds and in the process of divorce.
Previously Pharmer thought that Wu’s tiger costume did not rise to a worrisome level by Democrat standards.
Now he’s accused of unwanted sex with a teenage daughter of one of his donors.
That’s enough. Boot him out.
New York Democrat assemblyman Joe Lentol normally gives a small donation to a Catholic school around graduation time. This year, Queen of Rosary Catholic Academy returned his donation.
This is in compliance with a request from Bishop Nicholas Dimarzio for the Catholic institutions to refuse any ‘honors, donations or distinctions bestowed’ on them by the politicians who passed New York’s gay marriage law.
Pharmer wishes that more of the U.S. Catholic bishops had felt so strongly about the abortion, embryonic stem cell, and physician assisted suicide issues.
Coming from ABC:
In the same video, Loughner accuses the government of mind control.
Amazing that even ABC has put a pointer on what really is Loughner’s problem.
Meanwhile the Lefties (who, if they were normal, could have cooler heads) are echoing Spencer Giffords’ emotional outburst.
Spelling the main point out, in case a leftie reads this….. Teapartiers wouldn’t list Mein Kampf and the Communist Manifesto as their favorite reads.
The leftist moral tenet that criminal profiling is wrong, as well as the seeming incapability for analytical thought, will continue to cause more untimely deaths.
New Castle councilman calls cops on boys’ cupcake sale | LoHud.com | The Journal News.
New Castle Councilman Michael Wolfensohn came upon some busy underage entrepreneurs selling refreshments and baked goods at Gedney park, and called the cops on them.
Yes, it’s true, this politician says that the kids’ business needs to be licensed, and, instead of just telling the kids, he called the cops and Busted them! This guy’s a real, socially adept charmer
I recommend for the kids, Andrew DeMarchis and Kevin Graff, and their friends to dial up a conservative radio host or two. That would bring Wolfensohn all sorts of entertaining email. He deserves it for using the cops to break the bad news of government interference to these budding businessmen.
I did not find the party of Michael Wolfensohn in the article but will now go look for it, because I bet………….. yes he is a Democrat :-)
…. because 91 percent of Cuban-Americans vote republican. This guy would be no good for the amnesty-voter-drive that the Dems are preparing for 2012.

though the reporter states that only a third of those polled want their incumbent back in 2010.
My Way News – AP-GfK Poll: Only a third want own lawmakers back.
Now for a bit of reality…….
This is an interim election. Pharmer’s area of the country would be characterized as “Reagan Democrat” in its demographics. This was not reflected in the primary voter turnout on May 4th with 81 percent of voters asking for the Republican ballot, and 19 percent asking for the Democrat ballot.
Soooooooo, if these figures are any indicator of the voter turnout in November: Bye Bye, Lefties. So Long, Baron Hill.

The health problem exhibited here is perhaps hepatic encephalopathy resulting from a long battle with Hepatitis C. It is sad that the congressman has remained in place only to be made into a public laughing stock. His party should have exercised better judgment.
Kudos to the good Admiral for his self control in dealing with this situation without further humiliating the congressman.
Perhaps keeping Congressman Johnson in such a position means that the Dems place the retention of their power far above human dignity.
because he never was going to hold up the health care bill MERELY over abortion.
The most attentive prolifers have always been aware of this.
