At the end of each May, Americans come together to remember our deceased war heroes on Memorial Day. Every day our men and women in uniform are on the frontlines protecting our freedom and our way of life. Our military is the best in the world because of the American soldier. Unfortunately, Washington is playing […]
When Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission was first argued before the Supreme Court, on March 24, 2009, it seemed like a case of modest importance. The issue before the Justices was a narrow one. The McCain-Feingold campaign-finance law prohibited corporations from running television commercials for or against Presidential candidates for thirty days before primaries. […]
The conservative movement had a great victory this week when Indiana Senator Dick Lugar lost to State Treasurer Richard Mourdock in the Republican Primary by a staggering twenty percent. Many in the liberal media are crying crocodile tears about Dick Lugar’s loss, calling him a “statesman” and an “institution” in the United States Senate. The […]

Citizens United, the conservative advocacy group that won the 2010 ruling freeing corporations and labor unions to spend freely to influence elections for President and Congress, has urged the Supreme Court to protect that decision by overturning — without briefing or hearing — a Montana Supreme Court decision that went the opposite way. Accusing the […]
The last time the United States Senate passed a budget was three years ago on April 29, 2009. It is a complete outrage that what is supposed to be the greatest deliberative body in the world cannot figure out a fiscally sane budget that will put America back on a path towards prosperity. I have […]
