I wasn’t going to write this piece, I really wasn’t. I heard about Sarah’s “hand malfunction” gave it a good laugh (check that – a HUGE laugh) but decided I didn’t want to rip another Republican having just given Richard Shelby his due. But that changed when I read that Sarah had given Rush...

There is very little information available at this time, but there are reports that conservative talk show host, Rush Limbaugh, has been taken to a Honolulu hospital with chest pains.

It is now official that Chip Saltsman has withdrawn his candidacy for the Chairmanship of the Republican National Committee and in my opinion it is a sad day for the Republican Party. This leaves current Chairman Mike Duncan in the lead to retain his position and if that lead holds out, our party is...
