The U.S. is on a Suicide Watch
What binds together the financial problems of the West is the common thread of infantile behavior and thought. One might call it wishful thinking. Instead of encouraging people to provide for old age and possible illness, politicians decided to turn government into Big Daddy, the eternal source of money for everything.
Democrats Regulating the Dead
Personal preferences are a reliable method of distinguishing between conservatives and Democrats. Conservatives believe personal preferences are just that: personal and particular to the individual. When others don’t share his preferences a conservative looks for more congenial companions or surroundings. Sometimes he even takes the initiative and creates a like–minded opportunity in the private sector.
So, How’s That Workin’ Out For Ya?
The early civil right movement was supported and encouraged by the GOP and conservatives. Civil rights legislation was OPPOSED and even filibustered not by those evil right-wing conservatives, but by the LEFT WING Democrats! (The filibuster of the Civil Rights Act was led by 18 Democrats and a lone Republican, and the HIGHLIGHT of the show was Senator Robert Byrd!)
Reasons for EVERYONE in Congress to Repeal ObamaCare
There are few opportunities for legislation that holds the prospect of gain for EVERYONE who supports it, regardless of party or ideology – but amazingly, the repeal of ObamaCare offers that very opportunity, if our elected officials would but examine the possibilities!!
What We Have Here is a Failure to Negotiate
In the movie, “Cool Hand Luke” the warden of a prison camp utters the now famous line, “What we have here is a failure to communicate.” The decision of the Democratic members of the Congressional Super Committee to refuse further discussion of revenue issues is a failure to negotiate.
Trojan Piggy Bank
Given the fact that our national forests now serve to grow illicit marijuana for these Mexican criminal cartels; it does not take too much imagination to connect the dots of why American real estate is the perfect choice for Mexican drug lords, Russian mafia, fanatical jihadists, Asian tongs, Columbian drug cartels and other nefarious elements to expand and consolidate their criminal empire in America.
The Second Time Since Harvard Obama’s Ridden a Bus
This week Obama is once again firing up his Canadian–built Magical Mystery Bus and driving through North Carolina and Virginia as his re–election campaign begins on the taxpayer dime. Somehow the symbolism of Obama back in the bus is supposed to inspire Congress to pass his contemptible “jobs bill” and at the same time convince the rubes that Obama has the common touch.
Bev’s Excursion Into Ad Lib Territory
As far back as 2007 this scribe was warning that if times got rough for democrats America might see elections suspended in order to keep the dems in office. After the 2010 avalanche of votes for republicans many conservatives began to worry about the possibility that democrats in charge of the White House might, in fact, make such a move.
Our least sustainable energy option
President Obama and a chorus of environmentalists, politicians, corporate executives and bureaucrats are perennially bullish on wind power as the bellwether of our “clean energy economy of the future.”
In reality, wind energy may well be the least sustainable and least eco-friendly of all electricity options. Its shortcomings are legion, but the biggest ones can be grouped into eight categories.
Obama Abusing The Bully Pulpit
Obama’s speech to a joint session of Congress concerning jobs is nothing more that a campaign speech. This is more of Obama abusing the powers of the Office of the President and conservatives in the Congress should boycott it. It is just high political theatre and frankly it is another tasteless move by the White House.
Defense-Less
In an analysis by Commander Bryan Clark, U.S. Navy (Ret) and Dr. Dan Whiteneck, written for the U.S. Naval Institute, the authors noted that, unlike the Reagan years that contributed to the Soviet collapse, “the Navy cannot afford to buy 15 or more ships each year.” Instead it “can afford to buy about ten and half of those are small combatants or support ships. As a result, the Fleet is now at 286 ships, down from 344 in 1998.”
The Democrat Downgrade
In 2004, Congressional Republicans began hearings on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and started waving red flags about the sub-prime mortgage threat. They were demanding MORE oversight and regulation of these entities and warned of the dangers of forcing lending institutions to make home loans to people who can’t afford them.
The Deal That Wasn’t
America’s ruling class has set its aim on America’s middle class. We are headed, as straight as a Martin to its gourd, for a nation with only a ruling class and a lower class — or a poverty stricken class of poor Americans with no hope of ever climbing out of their morass of crushing deprivation.
Obama gets his debt ceiling raised – GOP gets PROMISES!
Is there a “stupid” gene we republicans have that democrats don’t? Are we born with a warped DNA that, somehow, forces us to fall for the oldest democrat trick in the book time, after time, after time? Are republicans “hard-wired” to play the fool at the democrats beckoning?
Embracing Defeat in the Debt Ceiling Debate
Well here’s what 27 years in the Senate brings conservatives who view the debt ceiling fight as the first real opportunity to force the Obama abomination to reduce spending: Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell offers a debt ceiling “contingency” plan that combines pre–emptive surrender with the approval of Nancy Pelosi.
Is the Debt Ceiling Showdown REALLY a Repeat of Gingrich/Clinton?
There are some on the right – Mitch McConnell chief amongst them – who fear that the GOP’s stance on principle against debt and taxes will backlash against them politically. They are willing to compromise so they appear to be “reasonable”, and willing to work with the Democrats, as they capitulate to the further destruction of the American economy and to Obama’s “Fundamental Transformation” of who and what we are as a nation.
Democrats Going After Fox News? You Bet!
Americans are afraid the government is screening their e-mail. Americans fear their cell phones are being “tapped” or “hacked” by the DOJ. Americans find themselves whispering when saying anything derogatory about the Obama administration. Americans feel, for the first time, that gnawing feeling of fear and paranoia about their own government, which has the DOJ acting as some sort of “state police.”
Flatlining the Economy
If Obama and the moronic economic advisors he brought into office with him—only Treasury Secretary Geithner remains—wanted to turn the economy around all they had to do was cut tax rates, cut government spending, push for deregulation to reduce the costs of doing business, and exercise restraint with monetary policies. They did none of this. Instead, they doubled-down with a massive, failed “stimulus” program, cash for clunkers, and comparable measures.
Persuading Politicians to Do Your Price Fixing
Aaron Duncan probably won’t be the guest of honor at the Virginia Bail Agents Assn. Christmas party. In fact, he might not get an invitation. That’s because Duncan — a stranger to political spin — told the truth regarding a new law regulating bail bondsmen.
Obama Set To Win In 2012
As much as it grieves me to say it, I am STILL convinced that President Obama will win a second term as President of the United States in November of 2012. His win will be followed by the collapse of the United States, as we have known it since it’s founding. Yeah, I know the Gallup pollsters say their poll shows that any GENERIC republican candidate can beat Obama. The key word there is G E N E R I C – not one of the republican candidates running today.
US Employers Wait For New Presidential Administration
America is hurtling toward third-world status today. Stopping the plunge will be painful. The question for me is: Do modern Americans have the guts their forefathers had? Do we have the stubborn tenacity they had to say “ENOUGH” and take our country back? Frankly, I am doubtful, extremely doubtful.
America’s Betrayal of Israel
by J. D. Longstreet
Our President, with his loyalty to the world and not to the country that trusted him with the sacred duty to be leader of America and Commander-in-Chief of the mightiest military force in all of history, has gone over to the “Dark Side.” He has turned his back on the one nation, which occupies the most important piece of real estate on the globe. He has made it clear he favors the countries, which consider themselves Israel’s most ardent enemies. Israel now knows they stand alone.”
We’re all communists now, Part 2
By Ellis Washington
The 45 communist goals Skousen documented over 50 years ago reads like today’s newspaper, but most people are either too ignorant (“I didn’t know”), apathetic (“I don’t care”) or egocentric (“I want power”) to understand that since FDR both political parties have essentially morphed into one leviathan hypocrisy. America has devolved into a servile welfare state where more and more of its citizens are victims of voluntary slavery to the federal government.
Contracts Are Made to Be Broken
By Michael R. Shannon
Conservatives and Tea party voters now know the discount rate on Boehner–led Republican promises is in the neighborhood of 62 percent. This means if Speaker Boehner promises to cut $100 billion from an Obama spending spree while running for office in November, you are going to get no more than $38 billion when he’s actually in power in April.
