…your nominee withdraws and Schumer and Reid run to the cameras to defend her and blame the “extreme” right. Gail AllenEvents Person-in-Charge  Read More →

I for one am very happy that Miers received the boot. Her confirmation would have put many southern Republican seats in jeopardy in 2006. Now that President Bush has been given another chance, I would love for him to nominate Janice Rogers Brown. It would make Democrats squirm and hesitant in fighting her confirmation and would pay back the 5 million Evangelical Christians who came out to vote for him in the last election.

Breaking news: the White House has withdrawn the Miers nomination!! gail update: she submitted her resignation. CNN (I’m stuck w/ them as my TV news service at the office) is implying that Bush has withdrawn her nomination. (interestingly, FoxNews.com reports “Bush ‘reluctantly’ accepts Harriet Miers’ resignation…”)  Read More →

Dennis, you’re asking so I’m going to ask back. Deserve to win? Are you saying that it’s not “fair” that the White Sox won? That on a “fairness” scale, it’s more “fair” for the Astros to win? Doesn’t 2-time MVP Frank Thomas deserve a ring? Big Frank, the Big Hurt??? Personally, the Astros deserve to lose: they beat my Braves. The new millennium is all about breaking the old curses. (Mike Berardino at the South Florida Sun-Sentinel... Read More→

Let’s lay it on the line here, we’ve got two organizations in the World Series that aren’t exactly known for their winning ways in the last half-century. The Astros (or the Colt 45′s for that matter) were not tearing up the baseball world and come in here as Rusty Staubb inspired overdogs. So what’s the deal with the “Go Sox” attitude out there? I’m not critical, as I could care less who wins (I watch, but I have no rooting interest), but why is everyone... Read More→

Welcome to the New York Young Republican Club Blog! This has been a long time coming, but we wanted to take the time to get it done right. I hope everyone enjoys this board, where NYYRC board members may post their thoughts on politics, the world, culture and Family Guy. Considering the diversity of this group, I’d be surprised if this wasn’t entertaining to say the least. Thanks for coming and now I christen thee “the NYYRC Blog”.

Gallup’s latest poll states that the Republican Party is pulling disapproval numbers not seen since the Democrats were bounced from the Congressional majority in 1994. President Bush’s approval ratings (or disapproval ratings, depending on how you see things) have been so low for so long that some anonymous Republican sources across the country think that he may be more of a liability in 2006 than a help. Now, none of us likes to admit that we put much stock in the polls. We tend to only... Read More→
