Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio, Whose Side Are You On?

One of the best articles on the immigration debate to date notes that “the two sides in this immigration debate are being led by Hispanic Republican senators: Marco Rubio for the Gang of Eight, Ted Cruz for the opposition.

Do ya feel Lucky, Punk?

Harry Callahan: I know what you’re thinking. “Did he fire six shots or only five?” Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you’ve got […]

IRS Agents Apparently Outsourced to Asia Now

Dial One for Someone Who Understands the Constitution Things have gotten pretty bad when an IRS agent feels she can lecture an applicant for tax exempt status on religious rights, and said lecture is so heavily accented to make it virtually unintelligible in places.

Ted Cruz, Man on a Mission

MIssion Impossible Plot = To Dismantle Job 314* Ted Cruz is a man on a mission.
