Jesse Helms, Conservative Force in the Senate, Dies at 86
By STEVEN A. HOLMES
Published: July 5, 2008

Jesse Helms, the former North Carolina senator whose courtly manner and mossy drawl barely masked a hard-edged conservatism that opposed civil rights, gay rights, foreign aid and modern art, died early Friday. He was 86.

DW- R.I.P.

season's greetings from the double wide

Hat tip to the Orlando Sentinel.

Pole smoking Florida Republican "doing his doody"

Not that I'm obsessed with this or anything, but according to the Orlando Sentinel, Florida state legislator Rep. Bob Allen (R-Stick Lover) is back at work in Tallahassee.

"My colleagues have been very cordial and professional. They know I’m doing my duty," he said.

Way to go Bob.  Good hustle.

GOP to embrace Manlove

GOP plays to its strengths in TX-22

Well, there's a feller running for Tom DeLay's old congressional seat named John Manlove.   We expect to see "Texans for Manlove" signs popping up all over suburban Houston any minute now.

I'll bet House Republican Leader Boehner is just giddy.

Although the parties generally stay out of primaries, word on the street is that Florida Governor Charlie Crist has taken an interest in the campaign and will be "advising" Mr. Manlove.

Larry Craig a Homo? I Just Don't See It

High fives everybody!!!  High Fives!!!

From The Hill, 2006:

American Idol,  Senate style

Sens. Trent Lott (R-Miss.) and Larry Craig (R-Idaho) aren’t quite Jake and Elwood Blues, but they’re putting the band back together, and given their conservative credentials, they might think they’re on a mission from God.

Well, not exactly a band, it’s actually a barbershop quartet, which is just as cool as a blues band — at least that’s what someone needs to tell Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.)...

...Lott and Craig are auditioning for new singing partners and they’ve found two solid prospects in Sen. Bob Bennett (R-Utah) and Thune.

...“Senator Thune has a lovely tenor voice,” said Craig, who also sings tenor. “And Senator Bennett has a good baritone.”

“Bob wants to do it,” said Craig, 61. “It’s Thune who doesn’t know. He thinks it’s a little hokey. He asked if senators do this sort of thing.”

“I said yes,” said Craig, who has advised his colleague to relax and live a little. “You’ve got to let your hair down and enjoy it.”
