Cagle Post: 1,000 Days of Absurdity

Last week the United States Senate passed a dubious milestone and fittingly it came on the day President Obama gave his State of the Union address.

Politico: Are Democrats premature to predict victory?

A party that is satisfied with 8.5 percent unemployment is a party that is going nowhere. 64 percent of Americans believe that the country is on the wrong track.

Politico: Is Obama’s populism persuasive?

Cagle Post: Keeping Obama In Check

The unprecedented actions taken by President Obama to “recess” appoint his liberal nominees showed a new level of abuse of power by his imperial presidency.

Time to Take Energy Independence Seriously

Great article via the Stonegate Institute titled “Taking Energy Independence Seriously.”  Worth a read: At year end, 2011, as Americans emptied their wallets at the gas pump and crude oil reached almost $100 a barrel, OPEC kingpin Saudi Arabia reported an $81.6 billion 2011 budget surplus. The White House action at the same time was […]
