  1. House Republicans launch their version of a filibuster

    With a little less than three hours to go in the General Assembly, House Republicans have launched their version of a filibuster against a constitutional amendment imposing what they consider a too-weak lockbox deterring the transfer of money from the...

  3. Will Obama's brain initiative unlock the mysteries of the Republican mind?

    President Barack Obama wants to invest an initial $110 billion in a study of the human brain that could have benefits as great as those achieved by the Human Genome Project. Maybe the first study should be done on the one-track minds of tea party Republicans who will undoubtedly oppose funding for the study because their brains are fixated on the single idea that government can do nothing right.

  5. Can Hagel reshape the Pentagon?

    Chuck Hagel, the former Republican senator from Nebraska who survived a stormy confirmation hearing to become the new secretary of defense, had a coming-out party of sorts last week before the National Defense University, the government's graduate school for American and foreign military officers.

  7. Filibuster rules at heart of gun bill 'defeat'

    Do the people of the United States know that the U.S. Senate voted favorably on several amendments to the gun control bill? A majority of senators approved amendments requiring background checks for online and gun show purchases, providing special oversight of mentally ill persons and setting forth other limitations on gun purchases. The number of senators voting for these amendments ranged from 52 to 58. All of these votes were for naught because the Republican Party called for a filibuster, and the Democratic Party leadership then pulled the bill from further consideration.

  9. Mikulski campaign account boosted by chairmanship

    In addition to having a hand on the nation's checkbook, Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski is reaping a political reward from her new assignment as chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee: a significant increase in campaign cash.

  11. Immigration bill is no compromise

    When only one of the extreme sides of each political party is hollering against a bipartisan agreement on any bill, no doubt that side is the only one getting hosed. A true bipartisan bill gets both sides upset. So now begins the spin game by trying to get the few remaining conservative Republicans left in the Senate and all the tea party conservatives in the House to play ball with this amnesty bill ("Getting to yes," April 18). Unfortunately, this bill tries to do everything in one swoop. That is not what the American people asked for.

  13. Rand Paul gets schooled at Howard

    Rand Paul did just fine at Howard University, thank you very much. Or at least, that's how he remembers it.

  15. Shame on the Senate; send 'em all home

    Let me begin this column with an apology. Once a week, I pick an important issue and offer my reasoned analysis, based on the facts, of what it all means and how we should react. But there are times when the intellect fails and the heart and gut take over. And this is one of them.

  17. Maryland becomes a liberal paradise

    If you're a liberal living in Maryland, there's been plenty of reason to smile lately. The Old Line State continues to beat a steady path toward leading a new vanguard of progressive policy and politics in the United States.

  19. Twelve steaks and an arugula salad: Obama takes the GOP to dinner

    President Barack Obama had a dinner date last week with a dozen of his worst enemies, thus proving that the governmental stalemate in Washington, D.C., is driving him to unusual acts of political creativity -- or desperation.

  21. Democrats riding high for now, but beware a midterm crash

    My columnist and television pundit gigs have me thinking a great deal about the relative positions of the two parties heading into the midterm election cycle.

  23. Sequestration was Obama's idea; now he doesn't like it?

    I was dismayed by your recent, misleading article on the Republican's responsibility for the budget sequester (The GOP sequester," Feb. 22).
