Koch Brothers sue Cato Institute, president
Post Date: 2012-03-03 11:10:45 by lucysmom

The billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch filed a lawsuit Wednesday for control of the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank in Washington. The lawsuit exposes a power struggle for one of Washington’s premiere policy centers, which has been funded by millions in contributions from the Koch brothers’ foundations since its founding in 1974. Cato was divided between four shareholders: the two Koch brothers, Cato president Ed Crane, and former Cato chairman William Niskanen, according to the lawsuit filed Thursday in a court in Johnson County, Kansas. At the heart of the dispute is the fate of the shares owned by Niskanen, who died in October at age 78 of complications ...
Ken Mehlman: 'I Am Sorry' For Role In 2004 Anti-Gay Marriage Push

Ken Mehlman, the former Republican National Committee chairman and President George W. Bush re-election campaign manager who came out as gay in August 2010, said that he regrets his role in the campaign's anti-gay marriage push 2004. "At a personal level, I wish I had spoken out against the effort," he told Salon in an interview published Friday, referring to the campaign's attempt to draw out the conservative base by attacking same-sex marriage. "As I’ve been involved in the fight for marriage equality, one of the things I’ve learned is how many people were harmed by the campaigns in which I was involved," he continued.

Ohio’s ‘Little People’ Implore Republicans to Help Working Class

They drive trucks. They wait on tables. Some still have factory jobs. And they likely will determine which Republican presidential candidate walks away with one of Super Tuesday’s biggest prizes. White working-class voters -- individuals without a college degree -- may amount to half the primary turnout in Midwestern bellwether Ohio on March 6, says Ruy Teixeira, senior fellow at the Century Foundation in Washington. Buffeted by global economic forces their political representatives have done little to mitigate, these voters head for the polls bruised and skeptical. “Somebody’s got to step up and help us, instead of helping the companies and banks,” says James ...
George Will: GOP Should Settle For Taking Congress, Forget White House...

By TIM MAK | 3/2/12 8:33 AM EST Columnist George Will says the 2012 presidential race looks like it might be a lost cause for Republicans and believes that the primary goal of conservatives should be to retain control of the House and win the Senate so Congress can restrain President Barack Obama while the GOP grooms its talent for 2016. “Romney and Rick Santorum… are conservatives, although of strikingly different stripes. Neither, however, seems likely to be elected… If either is nominated, conservatives should vote for him,” Will writes in his upcoming Sunday column, obtained in advance by POLITICO Playbook by Mike Allen.

Will this man split Republican vote? Mysteriously funded 'independent' party tied to Obama by Aaron Klein Former Louisiana Gov. Charles “Buddy” Roemer has said he hopes to become the independent candidate to run for president as part of a group calling itself Americans Elect. The mysteriously funded, highly organized Americans Elect effort to put a third-party candidate on this year’s election ballot has ties to President Obama and top Democrats, as WND previously documented. After dropping out of the GOP nomination race, Roemer said he is now seeking the presidency as an independent with Americans Elect. “The Americans Elect think the country ought to come ...
Why Evangelicals Love Santorum, Hated JFK

0 Comments
(CNN) -- Sen. Rick Santorum, who is campaigning to become America's second Catholic president, disagrees from the bottom of his gut with the first Catholic to hold the office. In October, he told a Catholic university audience that when he read the 1960 speech in which John F. Kennedy said: "I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute," he "almost threw up." More recently, he elaborated on his dyspeptic condition in an ABC television interview, calling JFK's credo "an absolutist doctrine that was abhorrent at the time of 1960." But the Baptist ministers who witnessed Kennedy's speech surely felt differently. In the ...

A congressional candidate running as a Republican in the upcoming Illinois primary says the “Holocaust never happened.” Arthur Jones, 64, a Lyons, IL, insurance salesman who organizes family-friendly, neo-Nazi events around Adolf Hitler’s birthday, hopes to be the Republican candidate chosen to run against Democratic Congressman Dan Lipinski in Illinois’ 3rd Congressional District. “As far as I’m concerned, the Holocaust is nothing more than an international extortion racket by the Jews,” Jones said. “It’s the blackest lie in history. Millions of dollars are being made by Jews telling this tale of woe and misfortune in books, movies, plays and ...

Veteran Rep. David Dreier, one of California's most influential Republicans in Congress, announced Wednesday that he won't be running for reelection, perhaps the biggest casualty of the state's first-ever citizens-drawn political map, which cast him into a politically inhospitable district. Dreier is the sixth California House member to announce his retirement when his term expires, further shaking up a delegation that has built up clout on Capitol Hill because of its stability over the years. Dreier, chairman of the House Rules Committee, made the announcement on the House floor, citing Congress' "abysmally low approval rating." "The American people are ...
Romney’s Double Win Sets Up Next Big Test in Super Tuesday Races

Mitt Romney’s double-barreled victory in the Arizona and Michigan primaries yesterday gave him a burst of momentum in the Republican presidential race as the contest shifts to Southern states and Ohio (STOOH1), where his appeal among evangelical and working class voters will be tested anew. Two months into the voting and nine months into Romney’s second presidential run, the results confirmed his status as fragile front-runner, toiling to win over Republican voters as he heads into potentially pivotal Super Tuesday races March 6. Those 11 races -- which yield a total haul of more than 400 delegates -- are shaping up as a last stand for Rick Santorum, the latest Romney rival to ...

Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) will not run for reelection, she announced Tuesday evening, in a move that shocked Washington and boosted Democrats' chances of maintaining control of the Senate. “After an extraordinary amount of reflection and consideration, I am announcing today that I will not be a candidate for reelection to the United States Senate," Snowe said in a statement. "It has been an indescribable honor and immeasurable privilege to serve the people of Maine." Her retirement means the Senate will lose one of its most centrist Republicans — one who often crossed party lines to work with Democrats, and acted as a bridge between the two parties. It is ...
Markets Start to Anticipate Obama Victory in November

While President Obama may not be Wall Street's ideal candidate, stock prices are rising on growing expectations he will be re-elected this November. Part of that, market pros say, is simply that investors feel more certain about who will be in the White House for the next four years and which policies they will have to deal with. Obama's chances of winning in November increased to above 60 percent on Tuesday, up from about 50 percent at the beginning of the year, according to the odds on prediction market Intrade.com. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 has hit a new bull market high and is up 9 percent on the year. The stock market’s rise comes as the supposed Republican ...

Jeb Bush calls it an unbelievable scenario. Karl Rove says life on Pluto is more likely. Still, national Republican Party officials and attorneys are quietly preparing for a prospect that no longer looks inconceivable: By the time thousands of Republicans converge for their convention Aug. 27-30 at the Tampa Bay Times Forum, they will not have a nominee. "Everybody that says they've got a crystal ball about the 2012 presidential election should have their head examined," said Phil Musser, a Republican strategist supporting Mitt Romney. "There have been more loops in this race than the roller coaster at Space Mountain, so for anyone to say unequivocally that we ...
Ayn Rand Beats Rick Santelli as First Teapartyer
Post Date: 2012-02-27 20:25:35 by Brian S
1 Comments
The origins of the Tea Party are usually traced to Rick Santelli’s televised rant, which took place on Feb. 19, 2009 -- by coincidence exactly 83 years to the day after Ayn Rand first set foot on American soil. A few anti- tax, anti-government rallies preceded the Santelli tirade, but he and his immediate predecessors usually get the nod for originating the movement. I beg to differ. Ayn Rand was the very first person on the national political stage to enunciate views that mesh precisely with the ones being bandied about by the Tea Party. Rand was channeling the Tea Party decades before there even was a Tea Party. In 1964, she gave a radio interview that could have been broadcast ...

Newt wants YOU to vote Santorum in Michigan

I heard Newt Gingrich say on Saturday that he expects Romney will likely have a good day on Tuesday. This I believe is Newt’s subtle way of releasing his supporters to vote for Rick Santorum in Michigan where he is polling 8% and also low in Arizona. Newt is sagacious enough to know that while he cannot ask his voters to do this, he knows that Santorum dealing Romney's campaign a mortal wound on Tuesday would be the best chance of making this a one on one race between himself (a strong conservative) and Santorum (a strong conservative). Mitt blew $50 million of his own personal fortune in 2008 chasing his legacy. That’s a very significant percentage of his total estimated $250 ...

George Will Blasts Allen West For Complaining About Gas While Driving A Hummer

Conservative columnist George Will says it’s “economic nonsense” for tea party favorite Rep. Allen West (R-FL) to blame President Barack Obama for the high cost of putting gas in his Hummer. Writing on his Facebook page last week, West charged that Obama’s energy policy was “insidious political gimmickry.” “Here is the bottom line, last night it took 70 dollars to fill the tank of my 2008 H3 Hummer, what is it costing you?” he asked. Politico noted that the 8-cylinder 2008 H3 Hummer only gets an average of 15.5 miles per gallon. On Sunday, ABC host George Stephanopoulos asked Will if the eventual Republican presidential nominee could overcome ...

FAIRFAX, Virginia (Reuters) – Colleen Wilson has all the makings of a foot soldier for whichever Republican becomes the nominee to oppose President Barack Obama in the November election. The Virginia college student comes from a conservative family and describes herself as a Republican. She is an intern at the county Republican committee and paid her own way to attend the prominent Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington this month. Her support should be a given for a Republican in Virginia, one of the closely contested “swing states” where the 2012 presidential election will likely be decided. But it’s not. “I may vote for Obama,” said ...

The former Bain Capital CEO on Friday noted that his wife drove two Cadillacs.

Fox News host Chris Wallace on Sunday ask Romney if he understood if he understood why “some voters would be put off by those things.” “You know, I can’t be perfect,” Romney replied. “I just am who I am.

The Detroit-based union will pay to fly a plane and banner from 10:30-11:30 a.m. that will read "Mitt Romney: Let Detroit Go Bankrupt" — a reference to a headline on a November 2008 New York Times op-ed that Romney wrote opposing a U.S. bailout of General Motors and Chrysler. The union also protested Romney's appearance on Friday at Ford Field in Detroit. Romney will attend the Daytona 500 Sunday before returning to Michigan for a rally on Sunday night in Traverse City. ...

Mitt Romney delivered what was billed as a major economic speech today in Detroit but it mostly fell flat, The Hill reports. "Television cameras showed rows of empty chairs as Romney rehashed many of the policies and quips he'd used in previous speeches, made a few jokes that appeared to fall flat with the audience and said that his wife, Ann, drove 'a couple of Cadillacs,' which will likely give Democrats more ammunition for their depiction of him as rich and out of touch." But this is priceless: "'That's my family leading the applause,' he said quickly, although no one was clapping, then laughed again. No one appeared to laugh with him."
