A full year and a half after watching the left demonstrate their inherent inability to engage in critical thinking and to look beyond the campaign hyperbole of our now community organizer for president, we are now starting to see their inability to stick to their own principles, flawed as they are. We watched in amazement [...]

On June 3, our community organizer-president was interviewed by Larry King on the subject of the BP oil spill: KING: I know you appear so calm. Are you angry at BP? OBAMA: You know, I am furious at this entire situation because this is an example where somebody didn’t think through the consequences of their [...]

About a year ago, I posted this spoof on my blog connecting the financial crisis, the holiday season, and bail-out fatigue. I thought I would post it again, with hopes that it might bring a smile to your face as we near the end of a very long first year of the Obama presidency. Bah. Humbug! [...]

Obama’s health care bill threatens businesses and working individuals with a new battery of taxes but taxes won’t be enough to help offset its costs. To help offset costs, the bill takes away tax incentives designed to encourage businesses to invest into the economy in certain ways, such as investing in solar cell technologies. As [...]

It’s axiomatic that the first order of business when you’re in a hole is to stop digging. Not so, it seems, if the hole is the U.S. economy and the one in charge of the shovel is the Obama administration. Having uselessly squandered $787 billion on the so-called Recovery Act, there is still pressure being [...]

On October 27, 2009, House Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) released the latest version of the most complex piece of the financial reform puzzle: solving the “too big to fail” problem by giving the federal government more powers to wind down major financial firms.

The Environmental Wackos are dumping ‘Global Warming’ as their catch phrase and rallying point. They are touting ‘Climate Change’ as its replacement and are now fully engaged at the world level. They started with the United States, but we were not all that much in a hurry back in the day, so they have been [...]

Major Portions of GDP Coming Under Federal Control In July of 2009, a University of Arizona economist, Professor William Boyes, stated that the federal government owns or controls 30 percent of private wealth in America. Boyes said his calculations were rather simple in nature not even worthy of a Nobel Prize. Continued…

In a recent Wall Street Journal Op-Ed piece, Lawrence Kadish presented a sobering assessment on the nation’s exploding debt and the dangers posed by the growing cost of servicing that debt: It is the interest on the national debt that makes our future unstable. The exploding size of that burden suggests that, short of devaluing [...]

Well, I can’t say that I’ve ever seen a presidency implode as quickly or as thoroughly as Obama has (been around for quite a few; I remember Kennedy being sworn in). The level of political arrogance and ineptness on display in the last month is simply breathtaking; this stunt of releasing the $2 Trillion addition [...]

Global Warming: Scientists’ Best Predictions May Be Wrong Scientists are now distancing themselves further from their own climate models. Now they’re saying they don’t even know how much earth’s climate is affected by carbon emissions. You can read about the science community’s Michael Jackson-esque moon-walk here. Here’s another article published Nov 2008. But in spite [...]

It’s all about Them, isn’t it?
Why won’t these Extremist Progressive Democrats listen to their own constituency, their voters, their own good people? Why call or accuse folks who stand up to ask questions or present their views at town hall meetings as a hired mob, a disruptor, or worse yet, a storm trooper? What? A Nazi Storm Trooper? Nonetheless, its [...]
