House becomes HQ for 'Hell no' mood toward gov't Flush with new power, congressional
Republicans say they'll work with President Barack Obama to cut spending and
create jobs — but on their terms. |

Sarah Palin says election 'refudiates' Democrats. Yes, 'refudiates.' Sarah Palin coined the term 'refudiate'
in a July tweet. She uses it again on election night to celebrate big
Republican gains. Her Mama Grizzlies did alright, too. |
Republicans promise an era of limited government
Emboldened by a commanding House majority and Senate gains, Republican
leaders vowed Wednesday to deliver on their "golden opportunity" to roll
back the size of government and President Barack Obama's signature health
care law. |
I'm curious, can anyone name a successful country with limited government in recorded history?

Election Results Madness

I’m glued to the screen through the night,
Watching Dem after Dem lose our fight.
Masochistic? I guess:
Can’t stop watching this mess.
Where the hell is this long tunnel’s light?
Disturbing News
The state
legislature in California is considering a bill that would allow electronic
advertisements on license plates.
Is that wise? I really don't need anything else to distract me while I'm texting.

When All Else Fails, Quit?
In 2005, Jon
Stewart's now-famous complaint that confrontational cable shoutfests like
"Crossfire" were "hurting America" helped lead CNN to cancel the long-running
political chat show. Now, the "Daily Show" host appears to have claimed another
scalp: MSNBC's Keith Olbermann announced Monday night on "Countdown"
that he's "unilaterally suspending" the show's "Worst Persons in the World"
segment, "with an eye towards discontinuing it."

In Corporations We Trust
According to ProPublica's Abrahm Lustgarten, a 4-week-old internal maintenance report obtained by the investigative news service reveals that at least 148 BP pipelines on Alaska's North Slope received an "F" grade on the company's own system of upkeep grading. Pipes receive an F when inspectors determine that at least 80 percent of their walls are corroded and at risk of rupture.

America Votes In More Gridlock
It's worth
remembering that, despite the change on Capitol Hill, the United States is still
facing a stalled economy, high unemployment, two wars, the threat of global
warming, and a raft of other challenges. So what are last night's election
results likely to mean from the standpoint of a workable legislative agenda in
Congress?
The short answer is: gridlock,

hi, Lisa,
i know you have to be as disgusted as i am about last night's election results.
i really feel the Dems betrayed the country by not fighting to defend their many
accomplishments against the lies of the 'right.' it's very disheartening to
think the American people are that gullible and apathetic that they would hand
even one house of congress back to the people who almost ruined this country.
thank you for being such a force for good in these desperate times!!! we'll need
your wisdom and humor now more than ever.
love,

It is no surprise to me. Obama was stabbed in the back by his fellow spineless Democrats just as the Clintons were.
Thank you Kathy for the kind words. I hope I can continue AHNC but freedom of
speech is not free and fewer and fewer people are able to donate. A sign of the
times.

Dear Lisa,
I knew we were f88ked when you couldn't raise just $3000 over 4 months time. People don't respond to the truth only hate and fear.
What a sad day for America.

My optimism is as overdrawn as my checking account. Same as my viewers methinks. Sigh.
