The Obama Administration is probably patting itself on the back with today’s unemployment report. The rate fell one tenth of a percent to 8.9%, and it is now below 9% for the first time since April of 2009. Hopefully, the jobs reports continue to get better, but let’s remember that President Obama said his stimulus […]
Florida District Judge Roger Vinson, who in January ruled Obamacare unconstitutional, today put the Obama Administration on notice that it needs to expedite its appeal to either the appellate court or the United States Supreme Court within seven days. This decision will force the Obama Administration to stop dragging its feet and put the wheels in […]
Congressman Patrick Meehan, a member of the Homeland Security Committee in the House of Representatives, said that the killing of two U.S. Airmen in Frankfurt, Germany today may have been a terrorist attack. The shooter reportedly said in Arabic, “God is Great,” before he started his attack on the Airmen. This act of terror is a sad […]
Michael Moore is at it again. His latest rant is about the wealthy in America: “They’re sitting on the money, they’re using it for their own — they’re putting it someplace else with no interest in helping you with your life, with that money. We’ve allowed them to take that. That’s not theirs, that’s a […]
A new Government Accountability Office (GAO) report released this morning spells out exactly why big government simply does not work. The GAO report highlights $200 billion in wasteful spending on redundant programs. A couple hundred billion here, a couple hundred billion there, pretty soon you’re talking about real money – namely our $14 trillion national debt! […]
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi opposes the modest two week Continuing Resolution being floated by Speaker of the House John Boehner. This shows she is not serious about making the necessary cuts to get America’s fiscal house in order. Nancy Pelosi’s inability to make reasonable compromises will make her the poster child of the looming government […]
The last known American veteran of the “Great War” passed away over the weekend. Frank W. Buckles lied his way into the army at the age of 16 to serve his country during WWI. Mr. Buckles once said of America, “If your country needs you, you should be right there, that is the way I felt […]
Our op-ed in The Daily Caller on Democrats changing their tune on CU v. FED: As President Obama and the national Democrat establishment gear up for their billion-dollar-plus 2012 election campaign, insiders connected to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid are hatching plans to protect the tenuous Senate Democrat majority. These Reid insiders are forming a […]
The day after AFL-CIO union boss Richard Trumka was at the White House, the Obama Administration held another exclusive meeting – this time with just Democrat governors. A quote from the White House says they will talk about “the ways Washington and the states can work together to grow the economy and create jobs.” I guess the […]
President Obama has set a dangerous precedent by instructing his Justice Department not to enforce the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). It is clear that rather than faithfully executing the laws of the United States, President Obama and his Justice Department will only enforce those laws that please his liberal base. I wonder what the […]
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka will be at the White House today with other labor leaders to meet with Vice President Joe Biden and Department of Labor Secretary Hilda Solis. It is telling that no agenda has been released for today’s meeting but I am sure the ongoing union battles in Wisconsin and other states will be […]
“The tenor of the discussion over the past couple of years has gotten particularly bad…the way some people have chosen to express their opinions over the last couple of years has been getting worse and worse. And that includes individuals, organizations, talk shows and candidates for office.” That was Congressman Michael Capuano (D-Mass) in the wake […]
