Yes, now that Barney Frank has decided not to run for re-election, he has decided to actually do the work of the people. No, seriously – he is. But it took him saying he was leaving to do it, and this is a BIG issue. And that would be Obamacare. Specifically, the Independent Payment Advisory [...]

On Thursday, Obama signed – via computer – an extension for the Patriot Act, after it was passed by the House and Senate. This allows it to be in effect until June 1, 2015. You remember the Patriot Act – it is the one many of us were furious about when the Bush Administration came [...]

Yes, it is according to former Californian (and still Birkenstock-wearer), Allysia Finley, in this Wall Street Journal piece, “California Is The Lindsey Lohan Of States.” This is her assessment after the recent election. I must say, she does make some good points in this article: [snip] After enjoying ephemeral highs and spending binges, you suffer [...]

Indeed one does from court cases to elections. In the court case “Win” Column, there is this promising article from the Washington Post, “Judge Questions Justice Department’s Lawsuit Against Arizona Immigration Law.” According to the article, this does not bode well for the DOJ’s argument. My favorite part of the article: Judge John T. Noonan [...]

The Wall Street-Washington incest MUST end. This coming Tuesday, America has a chance to ring that bell, expose that incest, cleanse the system, and deliver the message loud and clear. The peal of that bell must emanate from the 4th District in the state of Massachusetts. You do not need to read Sense on Cents [...]

Last month President Obama signed into law the Financial Regulatory Reform bill that left us Surrendering to the Worst. But one of the very few positives of that bill was the formation of a consumer financial protection bureau to oversee some of the worst lending practices that contributed to the housing bubble and collapse. The consumer protection bureau [...]

Oh, you remember Rep. Waters, don’t you? Who could forget her comments regarding Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac? Just in case, here’s a reminder: Uh, um, hell yes, there was a big problem with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Rep. Waters.

Banks are increasingly healthy, right? Our nation’s accounting rules promote real transparency and integrity in our financial reporting, right? Housing is bottoming, right? No, no, and no! Why so pessimistic, you may ask? I am not pessimistic at all. I am merely searching for the truth in the midst of the smoke and mirrors on [...]

Like a voter scorned. Many of us are reaping the sweet rewards of, “I Told You So” with many of our Obot friends, family, and acquaintances. We did, we tried, we hoped, we cried, and nothing would sway them from the One True Messiah of Obama. Well, those days seem to be slipping away, don’t [...]

* Bumped up (Amy discusses Lynn de Rothschild’s article, one of the hottest stories circulating on the ‘net) * Well, it’s official: Scott Brown won the US Senate seat in Massachusetts, easily one of the most liberal states in the Union. Brown’s win is the first by a Republican in that state since 1972. Holy [...]

Blank checks are the antithesis of good public policy. America can not allow the passage of time to lessen the outrage over the Obama administration’s Christmas Eve bonus to the financial sinkholes known as Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Platitudes and posturing aside, the American taxpayer is being set up as never before. A blank [...]

Well, it being Halloween and everything, I thought about doing some snarky kind of post about politicians who are particularly scary, like Nancy Pelosi, or Barney Frank. But then I thought, “Why ruin a perfectly nice holiday?” Ahem. So – for your enjoyment, I have the following photographs, sent to me by my cousin, who [...]

Well, it’s about damn time – again. Yes, Rep. Conyers has finally been persuaded – again – to investigate ACORN. Oh, yes, all the recent brouhaha about ACORN, all of the exposure from the faux pimp and prostitute, have FINALLY gotten the House Judiciary Chairman to get off his duff, and investigate ACORN, as this [...]

You are simply NOT going to believe this undercover discovery of just what you can get from ACORN on the Taxpayer Dime (do a search for ACORN at No Quarter for reminders about this organization,a s well as ACORN’s connections to Obama and the DNC, especially Barney Frank). Intrepid reporter James O’Keefe found out just [...]

You know that during the Campaign, I said a number of times that Obama was the REAL Bush II, not Clinton, and not McCain (for instance, here, here, and here). Many of us saw that writing on the wall as one similarity after another came out. Well, here is another one: Signing Statements. Yes, the [...]
