Eliot Spitzer caught with his pants down! I love it!! Expect the man who shall forever after be known as Client 9 to resign shortly. That he was a patron of a prostitution ring with a name like The Emperors Club VIP makes it even more fitting. These guys really do think of themselves as emperors and the rest […]

As the Democratic presidential race descends to new depths of personal negativity and John McCain disintegrates, Â the cause of human liberty has emerged as the clear winner in the 2008 presidential race.

It’s finally come to this. They’ve outlawed guns, banned smoking, criminalized fatty foods. You’d think New York’s nanny statists had done just about everything possible to protect grownups from themselves, right?
