About Those Unconstitutional Laws
Obama has decided not to defend the Defense of Marriage Act – because he feels it is unconstitutional. The article said: “President Obama decided the Justice Department no longer would defend DOMA after concluding the law was unconstitutional, administration officials … Continue reading
What Happens When Ideologues Get Elected

Obama Seems to Attract Unsavory Friends
Libyan nutcase warlord Gaddafi says Obama is his friend, and he is a blessing to the Muslim world. Now that I think about it, Obama told the chief of NASA that his main job was outreach to Muslims across the … Continue reading

Compromise
I notice Harry Reid is complaining that the Republicans are not offering any “compromising” in the stop-gap spending bill. When Democrats controlled both the house and the senate, Democrats most certainly were not interested in any sort of compromise. It … Continue reading

Respect for the Process of Law
The Democrats demonstrably do not support our form of government. Our government is based on rule by the people. The most powerful way the will of the people is transmitted to that government is by voting. The people select their … Continue reading
Let’s Stop This Nonsense
John Lott’s article about a 7 year old with a Nerf (type) gun, up for criminal charges. Recently I’ve seen articles about a kid that got suspended from school for the remainder of the year for shooting spit-wads. And another … Continue reading

Who’s Going to Run This Country, Anyway?
Who is going to run our country in the future? Will it be “we the people”, or will it be the unions? That’s the choice that’s being made in Wisconsin right now. And the Democrats, including Obama, are on the … Continue reading
Democrat Wisconsin Senators Run Away!
Democrat Wisconsin Senators run and hide when things don’t go their way, just as Democrats did in Texas a few years back. Day by Day cartoon states it succinctly, here and here. This demonstrates how liberals / progressives / Democrats … Continue reading
Tolerance!
One of the most misleading liberal memes going around is this notion that somehow you are an evil person if you are not “tolerant” of others. The reason it’s a stupid, misleading idea is not because it wouldn’t be nice … Continue reading

Will the Federal Government Shut Down?
The government may shut down if the Democrats and Republicans don’t reach a compromise on the budget. Now, seriously, is this a bad thing? After all < Snort! Cough! >, our biggest single problem is the massive overspending the government … Continue reading

I’m probably going to tick off a few people with this posting. What I am relating here is my own viewpoint based on observation and my own experiences. I have never been a member of a union, but I have … Continue reading

One Trick Pony
Obama is like the man who, since he only had a hammer, all his problems started looking like nails. He seems to think that the only tool he has is to buy more government, on credit. Every single thing he’s … Continue reading
Painful Changes
Right now, our congress is debating about how to trim the budget, and they are finding out that almost everything is somebody’s holy cow. We must understand that we cannot bring spending under control, and eliminate the huge debt liberal … Continue reading

Cut the Waste!
We should all be on the lookout for government waste. We have the right; those people work for us! We should make waste public when we find it, and try to eliminate it. Every time I encounter a government employee, … Continue reading

An Encounter With the Law
An encounter with the law as relayed by my son, in an email a day or so ago: Good Morning Dad, I wanted to pass along an interesting experience I had this morning. I got pulled over for speeding on … Continue reading
High Speed Rail? Ha!

Don’t Raise the Debt Ceiling
My recommendation is to NOT raise the legal debt ceiling of the government. If they can’t get by with $14.3 trillion dollars, they doggone sure don’t need any more credit. Besides, it would force the government to make some of … Continue reading
Be Careful Who You Vote For!

Progressives and Sharia
Kudos to Tamara for saying it so well: “Watching the multi-culti progressive crowd cozying up to the Sharia crew is as morbidly fascinating as watching some weird little Mr. Whipple-looking masochist fawning over a real, live serial killer. You find … Continue reading
