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 [...]

Oh, boy. This doesn’t look good for ACORN, not that much does these days. You may recall that Dale Rathke, one of the two founders of ACORN, had embezzled $1 million dollars, according to this NY Times article. That became the widely accepted amount, not that that embezzlement stopped our government from [...]

I came across an article the other day, and was really taken by it, especially as it came out in the midst of the undercover videos by James O’Keefe, four in total thus far, with more to come, which have gone far in exposing the underside of ACORN. O’Keefe’s staggering videos can be found [...]

Actor/author/director/satirist Harry Shearer wrote an excellent commentary for CNN about his “adopted hometown: “Does Obama Care About New Orleans.” First he discussed the encouraging news that the city is becoming a leader in charter school enrollment, working to clean up local politics and is a city once again “throbbing with energy” but then [...]

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 [...]

(bumped up from last night late . this is a CRITICALLY IMPORTANT POST about what Barack Obama is overlooking)
Remember Jesse Jackson, Jr., and his claim that voters should “analyze” Hillary Clinton’s tears? We should analyze those tears in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, he said, especially as Hillary will have to face the Democratic voters [...]

Barack Obama has a coal problem. Responding to yesterday’s revelation that Barack Obama intends to bankrupt all plants that operate on energy generated from coal, Chris Hamilton, the Senior Vice President of the West Virginia Coal Association, called Obama’s comments in San Francisco “unbelievable.” I quote the West Virginia Record:

During the past several weeks, you’ve all seen John Fund on Fox News discussing the problem of voter fraud perpetrated by Acorn.
As you probably also know, Mr. Fund has written a book, “Stealing Elections, Revised and Updated: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy.”
In 20 minutes following publication of this story — at 3:00 [...]

Wyoming, West Virginia, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Texas, Montana, Illinois, Virginia, North Dakota, Colorado, Indiana, New Mexico, Utah, Ohio, Alabama and Arizona: these coal producing states will be adversely affected by Barack Obama’s energy policy.
Imagine mines closing, factories closing, jobs lost, towns abandoned, small businesses failing, pensions lost, wages dropping and widespread economic depression in states that [...]

Irrefutable evidence indicates that Obama’s campaign has been doing business with CSI, which appears to have been operating fraudulently in the State of Maryland and Ohio, and ACORN, which has been associated with a laundry list of fraudulent business practices. The full nature of the relationship between ACORN and Citizens Services Inc is not known [...]

Tonight at 9pm ET on Bud White’s Hidden Agenda: An interview with James Lee Burke.
He’s been called “the Faulkner of crime fiction.” James Lee Burke’s novels are more than just brilliantly-plotted thrillers; they’re lyrical explorations of the American soul. He’s won the Edgar Award twice, been nominated for a Pulitzer, [...]

During the primary race Obama snubbed New Orleans and The State of The Black Union 2008 conference, who was there, Hillary Clinton. (He offered Michelle instead.) Here she is speaking at the conference.
Obama refused to debate Hillary anymore during the remainder primary states (as he is doing during the general election race). She offered Obama [...]

From North Carolina to Washington state, the GOP is already running TV ads that tie Barack Obama’s negatives to down-ticket Democratic candidates.
So far, the GOP ads favor tying local candidates to Obama’s longtime association with his radical, anti-American, racist preacher, Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
Louisiana congressional candidate Don Cazayoux squeaked through because he is a conservative, pro-life [...]
