I saw the following article at Facebook, posted by The New Agenda. I have to say, it just made me sick to my stomach, and furious, all at the same time. I think the headline really says it all: Victim Ordered to Pay Attacker Spousal Support. Yes, you read that right. The victim of many [...]

As some of you know, here in South Carolina, we have been under siege by the NLRB, which is attacking Boeing for moving its DreamLiner series to North Charleston. Since we already had the DreamLifter here, it wasn’t exactly an “out of the clear blue sky” kind of move. That hasn’t had an impact on [...]

* Bumped Up * You may recall during the 2008 Democratic Primary Campaign, Hillary Clinton was attacked by Barack Obama about her connections to Wal-Mart while First Lady of Arkansas. Oh, yes, he got just a tad testy as she was highlighting his constant “WORM”-ing (What Obama Really Meant). So he lashed out at her. [...]

I hope everyone is having a good day today. If you are with family and friends, I trust you are having a lovely day. If you are traveling, stay safe. And if you are working, well, sorry! I have a few tunes for you for the day. First up, the Judds back in the day:

To my recent post about Palin and the new McCarthyism. Michelle Malkin had this post about how President Obama will be spending his Labor day, “Obama spending Labor Day with real thugs.” Wanna guess who? That’s right, Richard Trumka. And why would Malkin say such a thing in her post? This is why: [snip] Trumka [...]

No doubt, you know there are plans afoot by Obama and Congress to extend health care benefits to all. It raises that sticky question of just how these costs will be covered. And when I say costs, I mean at least one TRILLION dollars, though I have seen estimates that are higher. One proposal is [...]

Of course, if you’re Rosily The Riveted ‘Bot Rachel Maddow, you optimistically title the segment, “Things Are Looking Up?.” Dear readers, please wade through the gushing over Obama’s visit to Iraq to get to Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman; it’s worth it because the economist and NYT columnist covers a lot of territory, including the Treasury [...]

This is a disturbing, important video about what Obama did to this nation on April 2nd, and I am COUNTING ON YOU to give us feedback. (While Mr. Morris is not one of my favorite persons – his obsession with dissecting the Clintons has marred his credibility at times – when he discusses other topics, [...]

(This is essential reading that I bumped up – Susan) Remember when George Bush and Dick Cheney could rely on the many in the media to help them euphemize that dirty word, “torture?” It wasn’t torture, it was “enhanced interrogation.” That’s like calling the amputation of a leg, “enhanced skin removal below the waist.” For [...]

Did you catch this story on Bret Baier’s “Special Report”? It gives me the creeps that these unions can resort to such tactics. They might as well hold a gun to these workers’ heads; it’d sure be faster than wearing them down by stalking them. It’s like the rough-’em-up tactics of the Hoffa days (and [...]

Here’s Paul Krugman, on camera, on Geithner’s “toxic assets” plan, announced Monday: “This is something they can do without legislation. They found a way that they can in effect put the public on the hook for a TRILLION DOLLARS for this stuff without actually getting any approval.” It can be done through the FDIC and [...]
