Interesting developments this last week on the 2nd Amendment front. Even CNN’s prissy Brit (who obviously hides behind armed guards) is ramping up is flailing ratings by getting into the mix. Media types are so transparent – all show and ratings. But, after last month’s massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School, his outrage boiled over. […]

The GOP has hit rock bottom. In DC – where its so-called ‘leaders’ are knighted – the GOP has gone native and become a slight variant on the spend-mad democrats. The reality of the 2011 debt ceiling and 2013 fiscal cliff fiascoes have made that crystal clear. Even though Speaker Boehner is mouthing the right […]

I am sure the wizards of Congress have their noses up in the air, wondering how anyone could do better than they did now that the so-called fiscal cliff is behind us. But of course, the reason the ‘deal’ is so offensive to Main Street and the GOP base (which is now on the hunt […]

Last night the nation was left without a political party to protect its long term financial interests. Faced with a chance to stop the generational theft by DC and its greedy, incompetent, robotic need to waste money, the GOP caved. Don’t blame Speaker Boehner alone, but blame every ‘conservative’ who prostituted their core beliefs to […]

This nation cannot afford to continue the madness of runaway deficit spending. If you want to see a real fiscal cliff, one that will take this entire nation down for future generations to come, look at THIS cliff – the National Debt cliff: This the real fiscal cliff. Not the Clinton-era tax rates we paid […]

Here we go again. Congressional Republicans are about to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Vice President Biden and Sen. Mitch McConnell were locked in urgent talks late Sunday over the “fiscal cliff” after Democrats offered several significant concessions on taxes, including a proposal to raise rates only on earnings over $450,000 a year. […]

Finally, someone has articulated the sanity behind embracing the so-called fiscal cliff: Don’t get me wrong: It would be better not to raise taxes on anyone, pursue pro-growth tax reform and cut the size of government instead. But that’s not what the American people voted to do last month. Americans cast their ballots for big […]

The fact is, the big-government liberals need to find more money to fund their risky and chaotic fantasies (reference the mortgage meltdown that led to the 2008 Great Recession as one example of liberal devastation, and the mountains of Obama-Debt piling up on our children and their children as another example). They are borrowing $1.4 […]

The Tea Party/Libertarian insurgent voters of 2010 know the best available answer to the stealing of money from future generations is to embrace the so-called fiscal cliff. All other options are result in more theft and more kick-the-problem-down-the-rode. So far, the best deficit reduction package on the table is the fiscal cliff. But the Political […]
