The Only Hope For American Economic Stimulus

I hate to put it this way, because it sounds like a bad cliche, but the path to economic recovery is a sound drubbing of the Democrats in November. For two years the Democrats have ignored the will of the people, instead pushing, bribing and bullying their liberal fanatic policies into law. The result was […]

Unemployment Picture Much Worse Than People Think

The ‘surprise’ news out today that the unemployment picture is heading south again is not really a surprise to anyone who is not deluded by liberal spin. Many of  us knew over a year ago the liberal stimulus bill could never stimulate job growth as structured. We also knew the census and summer jobs bubble […]

“Because We Haven’t”

Updates Below! When you promise the gullible you can turn them all into TV-Land princes and princesses, and that world-wide Nirvana is one election away, you should expect a serious backlash when your facade of infinite wisdom and power comes crashing down to expose the experienced and impotent human being behind the curtain.

Obamanomics A Dismal Failure

Finally – Government Data Shows Stimulus Bill Did Not Stimulate

Decades Of Economic Hell – Thanks To DC Democrats

75% Of Americans Reject Liberal/Progressive Economic Policies

Can government save or fix the economy? Or do the busy-bodies in DC do more harm than good? Folks, that is the primary question for this year’s election, and of the decade to come. Democrats have been on a mad, far-left spending spree for two years now, one which is threatening to bankrupt generations to […]

You Can’t Manufacture Credibility & Respect

The democrat party, as a whole, is learning a harsh lesson these days. Where they naively thought success was measured by the amount of crap produced, they are now learning that the quality or success of their labors is the greater measure by far. If they could do one thing well they would be on […]
