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 […]

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. I have […]

The state of Missouri is one of those excellent bell-weather purplish states. It rejects far left and far right politicians and has sent members of both parties to DC. Therefore the state is an excellent barometer for middle America and the average voter. If this latest vote on Obamacare in Missouri is not a solid […]

When the country heard the word ‘transparent’ coming out of the inexperienced young senator from Illinois during the presidential campaign season of 2008, they rightfully assumed it meant there would be no more back room deals, special interest favors, bribes or kickbacks. Â Well, apparently what the audacious and arrogant candidate meant was he would be […]

In these days of super-slick media packaging it is too easy to hide the true essence of a person running for office. As the Democrats are now fond of admitting openly, you have to elect us (and pass our laws) before you know what you will get. Anyone remember the roman columns as “The One” […]

This is not the year to be pro government. That is the same as being pro screw-up or pro incompetence. Who cheers for the losers who rant about how great they are and then produce disaster after disaster? And as the economic suffering continues to expand (it is now lapping at our door step too) […]

Liberals run on silly fantasies. Fantasies about the great, all-knowing, all-wise government bureaucrat being the saint compared to the sinner corporations. The idea corporations reward and foster innovation and success while the bureaucrats reward time in should tell you all you need to know about that fantasy. Liberals believe the fantasy that government gouging of […]
