  1. Sequester shenanigans dug Congress into a deeper hole

    This week, realizing that government actually <em>does</em> do some things people like, senators in both parties tried to undo some of the damage wrought by the sequester/fiscal cliff debacle. Their efforts were quickly undone, however, by the chronic dysfunction of the United States Congress.&nbsp;

  4. Sens. Ted Cruz and Dianne Feinstein face off on gun control

    Freshman Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), a tea party darling, evidently is so proud of his exchange with Sen.

At issue was the constitutionality of <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c113:S.150:">S 150</a>, Feinstein's proposal to ban semiautomatic assault weapons and large-capacity magazines.

  5. McManus: Gun control, DOA

  11. With sequester, Congress goes over the cliff and off the rails

    The United States Congress has reached a new low in callous disregard for the people of this country. One would hope a price would be paid for failing to stop the budget sequestration before dramatic cuts in programs began to kick in, but given the realities of our political system, only common citizens, not politicians, are likely to suffer as a result of this mess.
