Haiti, Daddy’s Broke – America

On January 16, 2010 at 1:48 pm

Haiti, Daddy's Broke - America

The worst part about this whole Haitian debacle (surprisingly not the fact that over 150,000 are dead and rapidly rising) are the seemingly endless debates over how much money we should gift them. Not the fact that there is NO money, but how much. Doesn’t The United States still owe China 900 billion dollars? [...]

The Apostasy: “Drop Dead, Tea Partiers!”

The Apostasy: “Drop Dead, Tea Partiers!”

A public flogging of Patrick Ruffini
In entering an important online debate recently, GOP web celeb Patrick Ruffini horrifyingly takes the elitist position.  He implicitly disses the Tea Parties, the very Tea Party which, in a recent Rasmussen poll, beat the Republican Party 23% to 18%, with a plurality of independents preferring the Tea Party.
Ruffini is [...]

For Democrats Taxes Solve Everything

For Democrats Taxes Solve Everything

Today President Obama proposed a tax on the 50 largest banks that took TARP money last year. Obama said, “We want our money back.” On the surface it may seem reasonable – to some – to impose a tax on the “greedy” banks that took so much taxpayer money and caused our current financial crisis.
But [...]

Truth(er) and Consequences, Facebook-style

One of the few silver linings in the otherwise dismally bleak consequences of the 2008 Presidential Election has been the nationwide revival of commonsense conservatism. With a renewed appreciation and respect for the United States Constitution, Americans from coast-to-coast have joined forces and channeled their energies into a productive, passionate movement now recognized as tea [...]

Transparency is just not their thing

On January 13, 2010 at 4:07 pm

No matter which side you are on, it’s pretty easy to see that the White House’s message of transparency has been, somewhat, well, hard to decipher. Matt Kibbe wrote about a few of the back door deals and the behind the scenes nature of the health care debate.
Despite the transparency rhetoric, promises of an open [...]

It's a Longshot, But it Could Save Us

The United States Congress is about to put its finishing touches on legislation that will drastically change our Health Care system forever. As Americans, we all would support such a move if it was a step forward with improving a system where premiums are reduced and coverage is expanded for those who need it. However, [...]

My Amish Awakening: I'm in it for the exemptions

Recently I found out that the Federal Government’s new healthcare mandates will allow for certain exemptions, specifically those who object due to “religious conscience”. This exemption is meant to address the objection of the people of the Amish faith.
It’s with this in mind that I feel I’ve come to a crossroad in my life and [...]

Mark McGwire Admits to Lying at the Right Time

Mark McGwire Admits to Lying at the Right Time

If I were on Mark McGwire’s legal team, I too would have encouraged him to come clean about lying in a congressional hearing several years ago. Let’s face it folks, we all knew even then McGwire was being less the truthful in his testimony. The reality is, that some point in his life he was going to have to fess up.

American youth awakening to Obama hangover

American youth are beginning to wake up from a two year-long, political Kool-Aid drinking binge and are discovering Obama doesn’t look all that pretty in the morning. After a year of broken promises and an all-out assault on American youth, in regards to Obama’s legislative policies, youth are falling out of love with their once [...]

John Brennan – Connecting the Dots Spells Conflict of Interest

On at 9:01 am

On Christmas Day the now-infamous Panties Bomber spluttered into the headlines.  Riding the coattails of a brave Dutchman, who actually put out the fire (did he extinguish the Nigerian panties too?), the Obama administration’s answer to Janet Reno, Janet Napolitano, declared that her system had worked just fine.
The President, pausing from his rounds of tropical [...]
