Michele Bachmann knows Hollywood won’t cut her a break. Even so, agreeing to appear on the late night Jimmy Fallon Show was like swinging the front door wide open for a subtle attack. That’s just what the Congresswoman got, a rude, inappropriate arrow in the back….even before she spoke out on any or all policies where she might differ with her hosts! Read more here. Conservative women….can’t catch a break!
Mitt Romney had the upper hand in last night’s debate, but Newt Gingrich brought much experience to the discussion of national security, and Michele Bachmann turned in a top performance as well. Watch the highlights here!

We’ve got the numbers. Just dial and let it keep ringing! The Congressional “SuperCommittee” was designed to fail so that Republicans wouldn’t be on the record raising taxes and Democrats wouldn’t be on the record cutting spending….before Election 2012! We say: Make the whole bunch of them order in Taco Bell until they come up with a REAL PLAN.
This Thanksgiving, instead of putting your feet up and watching football, you might want to pile into the car and go shop for big bargains. Wal-Mart, Target, Kohl’s Toys R Us, Macy’s and other big retailers aren’t waiting until early Friday morning to start their pre-Christmas super sales. This year, they’re swinging open their doors before the leftovers are put away! Hungry for shoppers? In 2011, DEFINITELY.
Good news…and bad news for the GOP field. In advance of Tuesday night’s next GOP debate, Newt Gingrich is flying high. He has passed Mitt Romney by 2 points this week. Herman Cain has taken a beating in the polls since the revelations of alleged sexual harassment. Rick Perry? Hanging on, but just barely. The week’s polls look encouraging for Newt…except for one number. Of those polled, 42% believe that Mitt Romney will still ultimately be the GOP nominee. Weigh the results for yourself!
We’re trying to give thanks this week! It is a struggle to find a way to be thankful for the log-jammed leadership currently serving us in Congress. What part of CUT SPENDING do they not understand? The Congressional SuperCommittee tasked with cutting over one trillion dollars in federal spending is expected to announce today that they have FAILED. And of course it’s Thanksgiving, and we can’t expect them to work through the holiday!
Some of the Occupy Wall Street crowd apparently aren’t 100% authentic. The New York Post caught up with two “protesters” who were actually camping out in $700 a night rooms at the posh “W” hotel, and then slamming police, and big business by day. THANKS NEW YORK POST! One protester used his American Express card….to just charge it.
