It’s clear that Energy Secretary Steven Chu is at least partly responsible for losing over $500 million in taxpayer money for the loan to Solyndra. Can anyone explain then why President Obama still has “full confidence” in Chu? FULL confidence? In the era of Obama, losing $500 million in taxpayer money is not a big […]
Are Newt Gingrich’s movies educational? Political advertisements? For profit? A little of everything? Gingrich made the movies before he declared he would run for president, but his campaign website and his wife Callista’s blog reference the films and their public screenings in early primary states such as Iowa, Florida and South Carolina. Gingrich made between […]
The Target photo-op of the first lady was classic image manipulation. Let’s not forget that Michelle Obama recently took some heat for wearing a $40,000 bracelet to a DNC fundraiser in New York a few weeks back. It is okay to wear a $40,000 bracelet – just own it, don’t pretend to be something you’re […]

In early September, President Obama finally unveiled his jobs plan: a new $447 “stimulus” package. The President exhorted Congress to “Pass this bill!” but Americans aren’t ready for another round of “stimulus” – we’re still trying to recover from the consequences of the last one, which cost nearly twice as much.

President Obama promised that he would govern as a centrist, when in actuality he has governed like a European socialist. Core constituencies in swing states like […]
Gene Policinski of the First Amendment Center effectively tackles the problems with Reps. John Conyers and Donna Edwards’ proposed amendment to overturn our Supreme Court decision in Citizens United v.

An article today about Jim Bopp, one of our attorneys for Citizens United v. FEC and a warrior for free speech: “It’s so complicated to win big victories that you have to go after these cases piecemeal,” said David Bossie, president of Citizens United, the Washington-based advocacy group that hired Bopp to bring the case […]
When President Obama was elected he promised to usher in a new way of doing business in Washington. Well past the half way point of his administration, it is clear that much like his promises of “Hope” and “Change” – a new Washington was little more than empty rhetoric. Obama pledged to ban lobbyists from […]
Last Friday, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said that he will seek Palestinian statehood from the United Nations this month. This dangerous pronouncement puts into stark relief the damage the Obama Administration has done because of its standoffish posture towards Israel. Back in the spring, President Obama threw Israel under the proverbial bus when he suggested […]
Back in 2009, President Obama himself said that you do not raise taxes when the country is in a recession. Fast forward to today and President Obama is proposing $1.5 trillion in new tax hikes. President Obama is looking at his reelection chances slipping away and wants to play the old liberal game of class […]
Served up on a Kaiser: “This tax document clearly shows that George Kaiser greased the wheels to gain favor with the Obama Administration for the purpose of receiving a half-billion dollar taxpayer-funded loan for Solyndra,” Citizens United president David Bossie told The Daily Caller. “It is evident that this was a pay-to-play scheme that reaches […]
