The first thing that perked the hairs on the back of my neck was within 30 seconds of the start of President Obama’s address to the nation. It didn’t take him long to mention the “crisis” this nation is in and I immediately braced myself for another letdown by the President. I’ve become [...]

I’m tired of hearing Obama talk about how he “inherited” the national debt while he himself has created over $3 trillion of it as either a Senator or as President in the past year. Take some accountability, Mr. President.
Obama said he will hold America’s mayors and governors accountable for their spending of the stimulus [...]

Article 10 of the Constitution specifically states that “powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” Nowhere in the Constitution is the Federal Government given the power to decide what pets I can and cannot [...]

I understand why the President wants to be compared to President Lincoln, but I really don’t think he wants to be compared to President Lyndon Johnson. However it looks like he is on that path, especially when he tries to run a war from the White House and not allow the military to do it.

Some of you may have seen this email in the past few years. It always comes saying that State Representative Mitchell Kaye from Georgia, but in reality it was written in 1993 by Libertarian Senate candidate for Mississippi Lewis Napper. Great read, if I do say so myself.

I logged onto my Yahoo mail account and the recent news popped up. Among the news was a photo that instantly caught my attention. It’s an AP photo by Pablo Martinez Monsivais taken during Obama’s so-called “Fiscal Responsibility Summit” earlier today (I know, ironic!). Does anyone else notice the subliminal message in [...]

I’m going to go out on a limb and call it. I have no idea whether or not Obama’s stimulus plan will work to get us out of things, but I have a strong suspicion that people refusing to call things like they are is only going to make things worse, not better.

Rep. Henry Waxman asked for a study of the costs of Air Force-1 back in 2006 as he was trying to investigate President Bush for mis-use of the aircraft during campaigning trips. Well those costs have not caught back up with Mr. Waxman, but more importantly with the new President that Mr. Waxman supports, the [...]
