Berkley Claims Every Weekend She Goes Home, But Last Weekend She Was In NYC The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) released its first web ad against Las Vegas Congresswoman Shelley Berkley, who claims she goes home “every weekend” to connect with struggling Nevadans. As it turns out, the 12-year Congresswoman from Las Vegas doesn’t go home every weekend, because last weekend Berkley – who was born in Brooklyn – went to New York City to raise money from trial lawyers. Between hobnobbing with her liberal pals, who are busy suing resorts in Las Vegas, Berkley also found some time to do a little shopping at Saks 5th Avenue. Meanwhile, back in Nevada where the unemployment rate is 12.1 percent, more Nevadans are signing up for food stamps and the state is still the foreclosure capital of the country.

FACT CHECK: Kaine Tells A Whopper On “Pay-Go”
Under Kaine’s DNC Watch, Federal Debt Actually Rose By $2 Trillion AFTER Democrats Passed “Pay-Go” In another reminder of why it will be important for the Virginia and national media to closely fact-check Tim Kaine’s revisionist history on the campaign trail over the next 16 months, the former Chairman of the Democrat National Committee told another whopper yesterday. In an interview with NBC-Richmond, Chairman Kaine claimed it is hypocritical for Republicans to oppose raising the debt ceiling by another $2 trillion and claimed that if so-called “pay as you go” – known as “Pay-Go” – spending restrictions had been in place, our debt crisis might have been averted. Chairman Kaine: “If the pay-go restriction had been put in place, much of the issues that we are dealing with, with the deficit today, might not have even been issues that we had to deal with… The only thing that’s changed is…
On Balanced Budget Amendment, Kaine Offers More Washington Double-Speak
Liberal Former DNC Chairman Can’t Have It Both Ways On Balanced Budget As liberal former DNC Chairman Tim Kaine continues his efforts to rebrand himself ahead of next year’s election, the Washington Post reports that “[a]sked his position on the balanced budget amendment, Kaine said: ‘I’m for balanced budgets and I could even entertain a balanced-budget amendment, but the one that’s on the table right now, once you get past the title, it’s a bad thing.’ He noted that the amendment being pushed by Republicans includes triggers for spending cuts and supermajority vote requirements to raise taxes.” So Tim Kaine is surprised that a balanced budget amendment includes triggers to – of all things – balance the budget? Notably, Kaine also echoed his former boss President Barack Obama’s demands for “more revenues,” meaning job-killing tax hikes, to pay for his party’s multi-trillion-dollar spending binge – including the failed $787 billion…
Menendez & Dems Threaten To Stiff Seniors & Military Unless They Get Their Job-Killing Tax Hikes
Shameful Threats Underscore Broken Promises, Reckless Deficit Spending As a candidate for U.S. Senate in 2006, Democrat Bob Menendez presented himself to New Jersey voters as a fiscal hawk, calling Washington’s deficit spending “immoral.” But now it’s been 806 days since Menendez and his fellow Senate Democrats have so much as passed a federal budget – during which time our national debt has ballooned to a record-high $14.3 trillion. Meanwhile, the U.S. Treasury now reports that our federal government’s deficit is on track to top $1 trillion this fiscal year. But rather than take responsibility for his broken promises and failure to perform this basic job function, Menendez and his Washington party bosses are now threatening to withhold payments from Social Security recipients and members of our armed forces, unless Republicans agree to their demands for job-killing tax hikes. As the Associated Press reports: Echoing President Barack Obama’s warning, Senate…

State Dem Party Boss Reverses Course & Turns To Hand-Picked Selection Of Washington Party Strategists
As “Feeble Field” Of Massachusetts Senate Candidates Continues To Underwhelm All the way back on May 26th, Democrat Party leaders in Washington threw their current field of Senate candidates under the bus and boldly declared that they expected their party to yield “a great candidate” to challenge Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown “in a few weeks.” While that statement was met with anger and criticism by Massachusetts Democrats opposed to those in Washington picking their candidates, that anger seems to have changed. Fifty days later and with his current crop of candidates failing to gain momentum in their respective Senate bids, Massachusetts Democrat Chairman John Walsh today reversed course and welcomed Elizabeth Warren – the favored choice of the Washington D.C. establishment – into the Massachusetts Democrat primary mix. In today’s Boston Globe, Walsh told Joan Vennochi that he “would love it if she were interested in joining the race” and…
