I find it very disturbing that major news outlets here in the United States are not following this story more closely. Perhaps because to do so would mean casting Obama and his cronies in a negative light. The story is that in order to finance the massive debt we are running up (5 times larger [...]

Just a week or so ago, Barack Obama pledged to begin a unilateral scrapping of our nuclear weapons. Since then, North Korea has been taking some very provocative steps. Again, I have to wonder if North Korea’s actions were calculated based based on Obama’s stance and words. Now, the situation has become worse. North Korea [...]

I’d bet my next paycheck that back during the 2008 Presidential Campaign, when Barack Obama pledged to sit down with Iran without any pre-condidtions, that the governments of Iran and North Korea were listening very intently even if the voters who voted for Barack Obama were not. In fact, recent developments lead me to believe [...]

Here is something that every American should be aware of when it comes to the issue of releasing terrorists back in the world. A report describing how these former detainees are going back to militant and radical terrorist groups was supposed to be released back on February 2, 2009. It has not yet been released [...]

If you’ve never had a fear of flying before, you ought to consider developing one now. Here we have yet another impact of illegal immigration, not only on our economy, but on the safety of travelers who fly our major airlines. From Fox News: Aircraft repair requires even experienced mechanics to frequently consult manuals that [...]

Now, you know that if this had happened to a Conservative Republican, the NYT would have run it as front page news for two weeks. But because Obama is a leftist socialist, the NYT spiked it. Back in 2008, the Obama campaign conspired with the voter-fraud group ACORN to violate campaign finance laws. When the [...]

There are basically two camps in the debate about how to stimulate an economy. On the one hand you have the capitalists who hold that economies are driven by the private sector and that it is most important for the people to have money to spend. On the other hand you have the socialists who [...]

Remember during the Valerie Plame non-scandal when the Dems thought that the CIA was the best thing since sliced bread? Well, it looks like the CIA is back in the Dem dog-house. How does a government agency gain and then fall out of favor so quickly? Well, when dealing with liberals Dems like Nancy Pelosi, [...]

Now that health care reform is back in the news, let’s look at what is happening in countires that already have socialized health care, or more accurately, rationed health care. The best way to do that is to get the information straight from someone who works within such a system. In this case, we have [...]

This comes from the New York Times. Yes, the New York Times. An internal government memo critiques the Envirnomental Protection Agency’s proposal to regulate CO2. The memo, prepared by the White House Office of Management and Budget says that the issue behind the proposal was “not based on a systematic analysis of costs and benefits [...]

The tea parties were only the beginning, it seems. Now, state governments are stepping up and showing that they can hear the voices of the people, especially the voices of the Forgotten Man.

I’ve got to give the Brits credit for one thing. Their mass media isn’t afraid to tell it like it is. Whereas here in America our mass media is acting like Obama’s cheerleading squad, the Brits are not afraid to bring hard facts to the forefront and ask questions that would surely embarrass Obama. Gerald [...]

Man! If it isn’t lying on their taxes, the Dems will find other things to lie about. The latest lie comes from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Although she claims she never knew about the enhanced interrogation technique known as waterboarding, newly released CIA documents now show she did indeed know. Oh, and if [...]

This is no joke! Essentially, Oklahoma just voted to secede from the Union! The Oklahome State House of Representatives voted 73-22 to override Gov. Brad Henry’s veto of the resolution and now the State Senate is expected to pass it as well. From NewsOK: “We’re going to get it done one way or the other,” [...]

Before anyone tries to dismiss this as some sort of right-wing propaganda, understand that this story comes from the leftist-leaning CNN. In response to Obama’s claims that his increase of taxes on multi-national corporations will somehow create new jobs, Jeanne Sahadi, a CNNMoney.com senior writer, has this: Will it work?

Far from being a courageous leader, in many instances, Barack Obama has shown himself to be a coward and his administration just as cowardly. Take for example the D.C. Scholarship Program which allows low-income students, who would otherwise have to attend woefully failing public schools that the D.C. School Board absolutely refuses to fix, to [...]
