I’m actually on vacation right now, but I will post a few things before I pack up the family and head to the beach for the rest of the week. Got this in an email from James Carville as the DNC tries to beg for money from me: At midnight tonight, the FEC deadline hits [...]

The cap-and-trade legislation currently in the House of Representatives is nothing more that an energy tax that will cost the average American family over $1,800 per year. Let your Representative know that more taxes on an already uncertain and unstable economy will mean nothing but trouble and worse economic times ahead. Please take some time [...]

Now the truth comes out about why Obama and the Dems are so hot to pass this idiotic cap-and-trade carbon tax proposal. It has nothing to do with the environment and everything to do with political payoffs. From Leland Conway of the Conservative Edge: The Waxman/Markey Cap and Trade bill makes states like Kentucky, that [...]

Been awhile since my last post. But, as I have said before, I do have a life outside of blogging. Seen the new headlines? North Korea is rattling its sabre (however insignificant such a sabre is by comparison) at the United States. From the Associated Press: North Korea threatened Wednesday to wipe the United States [...]

It isn’t enough that Japan is reporting a North Korean intent to launch on the 4th of July. We also have to deal with a DPRK ship that may be carrying an illegal cargo. From Fox News: The U.S. military is tracking a flagged North Korean ship suspected of proliferating weapons material in violation of [...]

You know, you could sketch a comedy routine about leftist liberals and the looks on their faces when reality comes up and punches them in the stomach. Such is the case now with Japan reporting that North Korea may attempt a missile launch towards Hawaii next month. From the UK Daily Mail: North Korea may [...]

This is long, but read it all the way through. It was written by Janet Contreras of Arizona. I put the word “Leadership” in quatation marks in the title because I do not really consider those idiots in Washington to be leaders. The words are truer than most people even know: I’m a home grown [...]

You know, I have a question for all the hard-core Democrats that keep stamping their feet and insisting that Obama is not a socialist: Why does Obama insist on proposing socialist policies which enhance his power over the free market? I have yet to see any Democrat answer that question. Here is Obama’s latest attempt [...]

Obama’s trek towards socialized medicine got off to a rocky start with his speech to the American Medical Association in Chicago last Monday. Part of the reason was that he refused to endorse limiting the payouts of medical malpractice lawsuits. From Richard Alonso-Zaldivar of the Associated Press: For all the young president’s popularity, the response [...]

Got this in an email. One thing about this CSM (Command Sergeant Major), he does not waste time getting to the point! This essay has been around for a long while, but the points made are still extremely valid. (I checked this out on snopes.com but didn’t find anything to indicate that this wasn’t written [...]

So that’s what government does? Make guesses only to have those guesses turn out wrong? Many promises were made by those who supported the stimulus/spendulus/porkulus package, promises that those of us who opposed the measure knew could never be kept. Joe Biden finally admitted as much. From the Associated Press: Vice President Joe Biden said [...]

The central thesis of global warming theory is that as concentrations of atmospheric CO2 rise then so does global temperature. Unfortunately for Al Gore and the AGW alarmist crowd, global temperatures have remained steady or have been declining since 2003 despite the fact that CO2 concentrations have been rising (thanks to the industrial efforts of [...]

I know we tolerated each other for [...]

Sounds like a football score, doesn’t it? Well, Gov. Sarah Palin (R) of Alaska has shut out the Democrats who began fabricating bogus charges against her almost immediately after she was announced as John McCain’s running mate in last year’s Presidential election. If you need any more evidence of how ineffective the Dems are, you [...]

I find it interesting that the Dems are all about looking to other nations when it comes to interpreting American law, but when it comes to socialized medicine, they want to ignore the experiences of other nations. The Wall Street Journal has a column by Canadian-born physician Dr. David Gratzer concerning socialized medicine in his [...]

You may get tired of hearing this, but it needs to be repeated over and over and over. Back in 2006, the Democrats campaigned on a Republican culture of corruption. Their claim was that they would bring back transparancy and fairness to Washington D.C. Well, the Dems lied to us. They are more immersed in [...]

Here is more evidence that the big media outlets like the Washington Post and the alphabet networks do not cover the news in an objective and balanced way. On Tuesday, June 3, 2009, the 3rd Annual International Conference on Climate Change took place but not one single major news outlet covered it. Why? Because this [...]
