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 […]

Liberals came to DC thinking America would allow them to indulge in their most extreme left wing fantasies. They horribly misread the public’s mandate when they threw the GOP out of power and gave President Obama and a Democrat led Congress a chance to prove they could solve problems. As usual, a party dominated by […]

Final Update: This is good, and truthful (H/T Gateway Pundit). Another Major Update: The bad news keeps coming today: Now the unemployment rate is driving the show more than any other number.

Some of this money went to states, but the bulk stayed within the federal government as spending programs. I have been tracking 5 departments and one agency regarding their stimulus spending, as reported […]

Translation: the government is too damn slow and lethargic to stimulate the economy – therefore unemployment will continue to get worse […]

As a recently deputized monitor for the stimulus efforts by the Federal Government, I have been posting regularly on the fact the ‘shovel ready’ stimulus money to create jobs passed last February is stuck in the sluggish federal bureaucracy. As of the end of April, across the 5 departments and one agency (NASA) I have […]

  One of our most inquisitive readers posed a great question the other day, which I think everyone in this nation should be concerned about. Reader Crosspatch noticed that our economy is not reacting as it should to the influx of all this tax payer money – and rightfully wonders where, then, is it going? […]
