HARRISBURG, PA , May 8, 2014  – The Pennsylvania House State Government Committee  convened on Tuesday  to discuss a resolution to impeach Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane after she declared she would not defend the state’s marriage amendment. At the hearing, Democratic legislators quickly called a vote to adjourn.  When their movement failed, all ten Democrats strode out of the room in protest , leaving Rep. Daryl Metcalfe (R-Butler), who is leading the initiative, and other conservative lawmakers to carry on without them. Kane was not present at the hearing. Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane “We could have had an exchange of ideas today,”  Metcalfe said after they left . “They clearly are not able to defend her, so instead chose to run.” The committee has not yet voted on the motion.  Should the committee pass the resolution to impeach Kane, the State Senate would then judge the case, as per Pennsylvania law.  An...

Right now the Democrats under Harry Reid control 55 of the 100 US Senate seats , while the GOP controls 45 seats. Thus, the GOP needs a pick-up of six seats to take control of the US Senate. Control of the US House is expected to remain with the Republicans. Of the 35 US Senate seats up in 2014, Democrats hold 21 seats and Republicans hold 14. None of the Republican-held seats are considered to be in serious jeopardy. However, five Democrats are retiring, and they are all possible pick-up seats for the GOP (Iowa, Michigan , Montana, South Dakota and West Virginia). Moreover, a number of other very vulnerable seats are up for grabs in conservative or swing states (e.g. Alaska, Arkansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Hampshire , North Carolina, New Mexico , Virginia, etc.). That means the Republicans need to win six of the 13 most contested seats — or less than half — to get to the magic number of 51. What would it mean if we had 51 US senators who supported marriage as the union of on...

Neo-progressivism mobilized the New Left of the 1960s, transformed American politics, and continues to dominate the cultural and political conversation today. It combines what neo-progressives call personal politics (the idea that American citizens have a right to all forms of self-expression) and cultural politics (the idea that cultural groups are entitled to special status) together as the twin pillars of a new identity politics. As a result, citizens today have more, not less, freedom from government in the realm of sexual expression, and the American electorate has been fractured into various groups. In the past two decades, a new, more ra...
