That is a question I have asked myself time and time again since Obama took office on a number of issues, including expanding the Faith Based Initiatives, or my fave, the incredibly unConstitutional “Prolonged Detention” of American Citizens, holding them in custody indefinitely without charges.
Turns out I am not the only one who [...]

Since Obama likes Rap so much, I figured a title taken from Flo Rida’s “Low” song would be the perfect title for Obama’s current poll ratings. Let’s put it this way: they could be better. In fact, they could be a LOT better. You know, this is when the politician claims that [...]

I tried to write something about Obama after his 263rd speech last Wednesday evening - not making up that number - but I just couldn’t. I am sick to death of him already. I am sick of seeing his face on the cover of my newspaper, on the cover of just about every [...]

Flopping Aces had a great post up this week about Obama’s empty words and dare I say, lies. It really points out how empty Obama’s promises were/are when it comes to bipartisanship, and the truth about what is going on in Washington.
Congressmen Took Obama At His Word Over Invite to Review Health Bill “Line [...]

Yes, it is a Numbers Game today. My blogging buddy, Diamond Tiger at Logistics Monster had this video at her blog today, which I am shamelessly stealing (hey - she’s on HI time - she is up when we East Coasters are dead asleep, even though she is at the March on Washington. [...]

It’s not just Republicans who are upset about Charlie Rangel’s rampant hypocrisy, as I reported recently (”Oh, Charlie“), but any American who works hard, pays his/her taxes, and follows the rules. Oh, and obeys the tax laws even though they haven’t WRITTEN any of them. Rangel cannot say the same, and pressure continues [...]

Some of you may have heard that Senator John Kerry tried to make a joke about Governor Palin recently in light of Gov. Sanford’s, um, “adventure”. Like his previous comedic attempts, it was NOT funny. Seriously - he should leave comedy to the professionals (and Letterman doesn’t count). Anyway, The Sleuth from [...]

Love letters between Mark Sanford and his *secret Latin lady lover* were printed yesterday in The State. The South Carolina paper reported that they have been holding onto the emails for six months, and were provided by an anonymous source.
Who is that source? (And how gross is that to print
personal emails like that? [...]

The other day, a friend asked me if it was really so bad for the government to run a corporation, and added that they do some of that over in Britain. My answer was, “Yes, yes it is.” For a whole host of reasons of which I can think (and feel free to [...]

Originally published today at The Daily Beast, which wrote, “Conservative radio host John Batchelor says it’s obvious: His Republican Party is a corpse. And its response to the financial crisis reveals how and when it died.”
The Republican Party is dead like Lehman Brothers and Robert E. Lee, not to be revived by [...]

Or perhaps this essay should be entitled “Some Advocates Are Idiots.” The idiots are MoveOn.org and Americans United for Change, who according to Karl Rove, the idiot par excellence, are targeting moderate Democrats in a vain attempt to garner support for Obama’s budget proposal. I quote the Wall Street Journal:
Americans United is going [...]

A great American and loyal reader (thanks FL) shared a report recently produced by not-for-profits Essential Information and The Consumer Education Foundation. This report, Sold Out: How Wall Street and Washington Betrayed America, has gotten little to no attention in the general media. What a shame.

The latest video from Zo. Love him, or hate him, agree or disagree, but interesting, indeed.
Personally, I love listening to what Zo has to say, and he offers perspectives on issues that I have never considered. This video tackles the attacks on Rush, from the left. Take a listen, and then share your comments below. [...]

Prior to going to the comments section of my son’s report card, human nature dictates that I first look at the grades. In that same vein, let’s see how the markets performed for the month of February:
