Why Believe Obama on His Health Care Plan?

By: Karl Jones
Do You Trust Obama Over the CBO? President Obama has been President now for seven months. He has made many historic decisions. From all of his decisions and policy making, one should be able to know whether or not to trust him with their health care. Do We Need Another Historic Decision Example: President Obama's orders on interrogations and CIA. An Historic Decision. Obama says the Stimulus Bill...

The 10th Amendment was great idea

By: Charleston James
Should a people blindly trust their government? I worry that as long as Democrats control the Congress and the Presidency the answer is yes. Apparently even disagreeing with Democrats is considered unpatriotic: Waxman: GOP ‘rooting against’ USA CNN’s Begala: Tea Party Goers ‘Wimpy, Whiny, Weasels Who Don’t Love Their Country’ Obnoxious CNN Reporter Susan Roesgen...

Cash for Clunkers Troubles: A View From the Auto Industry

By: Jason Rogers
As we are now hearing, the much anticipated "Cash for Clunkers" program is running out of money faster than ever expected. Many are touting this as evidence of the program's incredible success. The truth of the matter is, however, that this program will become an abject failure as it will fail to meet the goals of economic stimulation and demand creation. To begin with, though President...

An Impending Showdown

By: Charleston James
A battle is brewing. A majority of the states have passed symbolic resolutions reclaiming their sovereignty from the federal government. The reason they have done this is because many Americans, including many state legislators, feel the federal government has overstepped its proper, limited role.

The Audacity of Narcissistic Incompetence

By: Russell Cote
Obama’s second book, ( ghost-written by unrepentant domestic terrorist Bill Ayers ), was called “The Audacity of Hope”. A grammatically stupid title and an otherwise meaningless phrase, I suppose it has something to do with Obama’s belief that hoping things will happen might actually make them happen.

The Government's Habit Of Wrecking Things

By: Timothy Smith
Most everyone has heard or read about the tragic wreck that happened on the Washington, D.C., area Metro Transit Red Line this summer. Let me say straight up that I'm not trying to make light of this event but it does provide a vivid example of how government runs things.

On the Sotomayor Bandwagon

By: Charleston James
It seems there are really only two qualifications required to be a Supreme Court justice for the current Democrat administration: a left-leaning agenda and being sufficiently minority. That's the impression given by some recent news stories on the SCOTUS nomination of Sonia Sotomayor. Historic nomination: Hispanic Sotomayor as justice How -- and why -- Barack Obama picked Sonia Sotomayor for Supreme...

Sea of Propaganda

By: Russell Cote
Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 According to Christina Hoff Sommers , feminist propaganda may be the most prevalent and hardest to counter of the litany of socialist indoctrinations. But the “sea of propaganda” permeates every issue imaginable. I’m just going to say this because there’s no point in finessing it; there exists not a single...
