Some images from yesterday’s rally
Just thought I would pass along a couple images that left a lasting impression. The first is actually from a video which I have included. Porta potties. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmNk_PyiP1M The second is just an image of one of the signs. I like it. But then, you didn’t expect the MSM to detail the bills did you?…
Read MoreDodd spokesman calls Tea Party Patriots “Tea-baggers”
Extreme, fringe, and tea-baggers … this is what your Senator thinks of all of you. And the very fact that he has had to resort to using fowl sexual language to describe his constituents gives you a good indication of the state of his campaign. Chris Dodd won’t improve his chances of re-election with talk…
Read MoreConnecticut voters to Dodd: No we still don’t like you
The H/T goes to Sound off Connecticut regular Jim Geraghty over at National Review, but the credit all goes to the Senior Senator. Rasmassusen reports he still trails Rob Simmons badly. Heck, he trails everyone badly. Quote of the day. Typically, when an incumbent polls below 50%, they are considered potentially vulnerable. Dodd certainly falls…
Read MoreObamacare: the stealth provisions
What is wrong with the following sentence? Congress wrote the Kennedy-Dodd health care bill while meeting in Washington on the backs of envelopes. Hint: there are at least two correct answers. I have written many posts about the Kennedy-Dodd health care bill. There is only one problem. I learned Saturday, courtesy of The Wall Street Journal,…

Well come on. Did you really think his Democrat buddies would let him down … I do love the admonishment. Hey, when they told you that you were a VIP … you should have known. Indeed. The committee told both men that while they may not have violated Senate rules, the simple fact that they…

Hot Air points to this video from the CBS evening news last Friday, that shows how wide spread the Countrywide VIP loan program for Congressional leaders. Dodd and Conrad are still the marquis names … but there are more.
Read MoreConnecticut to Dodd …. we don’t hate you, we just won’t vote for you
The latest Quinnipiac Poll numbers came out today and they show Dodd falling farther behind Rob Simmons in a head to head match up …. but … his negatives aren’t as negative. Connecticut Sen. Christopher Dodd trails former U.S. Rep. Rob Simmons, a likely Republican challenger 48 – 39 percent in the 2010 Senate race,…
Read MoreThe $5 million per second health care “debate”
When the Senate Health Committee on Wednesday passed its version of Obamacare, the President, with Sen. Dodd (D. Ct.) standing at his side, applauded the committee’s effort. Our President explained that the committee had “engaged” in 50 hours of debate before passing the bill. All in attendance at this press conference were beaming with joy, and, of course, applauding.…
Read MoreWill Congress take the health care pledge?
We already know from President Obama’s recent infomercial on health care that he wouldn’t dare subject himself or his family to the government health care “option” he is pushing. But, what about Congress? All versions of the health care legislation currently floating around Capitol Hill specifically exempt members of Congress from any requirement to participate. Any…
Read More$hady Land of Dodd
With the exception of one or two articles, and two columnists who know the true meaning of journalism … Dodd has been pretty much flying under the public media radar … until today? The New York Post has begun to dig and that can’t help the Senior Senator … and what they find is Dodd…
