The United States of America used to be a fearsome power but one with a soft touch. Peoples of the world looked to this great nation as that “shining city on a hill” and came here by the millions to become the next new American citizen. Producing its greatness were great men [...]

In his recent trip to Racine, Wisconsin, President Obama claimed that his stimulus policies worked and “saved jobs.” He also said that his policies staved off another Great Depression. But lets take a look at some of the graft, waste and pointless, useless, wild-eyed spending that was in his so-called stimulus.
$5 million [...]

Truer words have never been spoken, but surely not on purpose. Rep. Tom Perriello (Democrat, of course) inadvertently admits the dirty little truth about politicians. Repeat after me:
If you don’t tie our hands, we will keep stealing.
And yes, he really said it.
This isn’t exactly shocking information. You can see it in the [...]

Surprisingly, they are actually partially correct
Watching your government at work can be an appalling spectacle. Politicians posture and bicker, and not much gets done. It’s gotten so bad—or at least seems so bad—that pundits are beginning to wonder if the system is broken in some fundamental way and to cast about for a big fix. [...]

We almost, but not quite, have to play “guess the party affiliation”
A team of congressional investigators believed they had probable cause that Rep. Pete Visclosky sought campaign contributions in exchange for steering federal contracts to corporate donors, but a House ethics panel decided not to inquire further into the matter.
A report from the House ethics [...]
Glenn Beck’s CPAC Speech

Republicans and Democrats are the problem. Progressivism is the problem. Awesome speech!
From Glenn’s site:
The progressive idea of a big, bloated government has infected both parties. In a survey, 80 percent said “the main thing that influences what members of Congress do in office” is either “personal self-interest” or “special interests.”
But it’s not just [...]

Pia Varma, an American of Indian background… not a redskin, an actual Indian… wants you to send her to Congress, Pennsylvania. And so she has announced her run for Pennsylvania’s First District Congressional seat (Philadelphia).
She tells us that her grandfathers were fighters in the Indian Independence movement of the 1960s, though she [...]

Yesterday our Republican minority leader in the House of Representatives proved that he still isn’t seeing the problem with the GOP. He’s living in denial, at least he is if we can take his words at face value.
On the Mike Gallagher radio show yesterday, leader Boehner insisted that there is no substantive [...]

Having arrogantly ignored the will of the American people repeatedly while running up massive deficits, sinking $trillions into cronies’ pockets and pork barrel boondoggles, and now seizing the healthcare industry by the throat in their ham-like fists, Democrats might seem to have no interest in winning future elections. But they have a plan, which can [...]

Every week we are seeing another Democrat deciding not to run for re-election or one that is switching parties to the GOP all due to the wild, left-wing overreach indulged in by the Obama Administration and its cohorts in Congress. Connecticut’s Senator Chris Dodd is only the latest heavy hitter Democrat that [...]

I know I’ve said it before, but unionism is antithetical to good government. It is impossible to have both unions and effective government in a democratic republic such as ours. Unions destroy good government, waste money at all levels and they move strictly against the best interests of the voters in all [...]

But regardless, the great father in Washington has generously opened up the federal purse to help those struggling folks that lost so much to that storm. The devastation was so bad that USA Today said of the storm, “Tropical Storm [...]

It’s really pathetic the lengths Obama & Co. will go to pass this monstrosity of a bill. Michelle Malkin covered the neat little deal Ben Nelson got for helping cloture to pass on Sunday. He got a fat little Medicaid payoff. This is in addition to the other senators who got bribed [...]

For those of us who are from the Northeast, we know what Mischief Night is. Essentially, the night before Halloween is a night to play some practical jokes on people, create a little havoc. Flaming bags of dog doo on the door step. Dog poo or shaving cream under the car door handle. Removing a [...]
