As Congressional Democrats take their much deserved late summer recess, oil prices begin a decline; the question is - why?
Oil speculation wasn’t the Dems first villain, it was big oil and profits. BUT according to recent reports, a stronger dollar is being given partial credit for the rebound. Hmmm - the free-market at work. [...]

Dear God, please let the Patriot Guard Riders know about this ahead of time. The Phelps gang is ready to strike, and they outline their intent here.

Please pass this along to all who can get the word out so we can stop these fools. According to their site, this is when it’s [...]

Mr. Myers has drawn the ire of the President of the Catholic League Bill Donohue for a blog posting that appeared on the University’s servers. In the wake of a story that appeared [...]

A Civics Failure in America
During my time off, I did have occasion to encounter the uneducated potential voters in Montgomery County (Ohio). One thing occurred to me above everything else - no one actually knows how our government operates. We began to see this nationally after September 11th when the federal budget burst its seems [...]

I find it incredibly ironic that those who first began to oppose the “War in Iraq” did so on the basis of “No Blood for Oil” as if we would be pillaging Iraq’s oil as we conquered their country. These same libtarded members of Congress are now advocating that Iraq tap into their oil surplus [...]

Though it has been forever and a day since anybody in the blogosphere has read a word from my befuddled and now pregnancy hormone enraged brain, I am alive and do (on occasion) get the chance and have the energy to pay attention to what is going on in the world beyond my growing belly. [...]

Hillary Clinton must have a major detachment from the truth and reality.
She’s been using a story out of Athens, Ohio where supposedly a woman died after being refused treatment by a hospital because she didn’t have $100 to pay up front. First off, anyone with half a functioning brain cell knows that a hospital cannot [...]

… in its latest attempt to argue for 5th, 8th, and 14th Amendment rights to foreign terrorist detainees being held outside of the United States.

Yesterday was April Fool’s Day and fellow Conservative Blogger John Bambenek (Part-Time Pundit) sent our “friends” over at the Daily KOS a little joke. He wrote a diary entry saying that he had converted to Obamamania.
And let’s be clear, it was a joke. I’ve been in contact with John and he’s rolling at the response [...]

Sen. Barack Hussein Obama (D IL) has had his tank riding moment. He went bowling with Sen. Bob Casey (D PA) and housewife Roxanne Hart Saturday night.
Now before I pick on Barack Hussein’s pitiful performance on the ally, I must remind anyone who may have forgotten that bowling is a huge thing in the Keystone [...]

Reagan combined tax cuts with deregulation to create the longest sustained period of economic growth in American history. That said, what is Barack Hussein Obama’s cure for our recent economic downturn? Regulation combined with tax increases. A successful President of the United States took one road and it led to an economic boom but a [...]

I know I know, I’m late with this. But we all can’t be in front of the computer 24/7.
Barack Hussein Obama finally got around to issuing a definitive denunciation of his Pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. After first sending out a statement from a surrogate, then giving Major Garrett from Fox News Channel some cock [...]

I have yet to jump on the dump on Elliot “Client #9″ Spitzer bandwagon but it is news and I cannot let it go any longer. Until today’s news, there was little but the indictment, revelation from the indictment, and his speech to go on. However, today we hear that if he doesn’t resign, he [...]

Capital Hill Police are investigating letters received at a few House offices containing a photograph of a man with out stretched arms in front of the bombed out US Military Recruiting Station in New York.

Mrs. Barack Hussein Obama is saying that use of the name Hussein is “the ultimate fear bomb” to which I say - good. My reason is obvious. Barack Hussein Obama should be feared. His empty rhetoric is dangerous. We once elected a President who was full of empty rhetoric and platitudes. Jimmy plunged this nation [...]

A California judge has ordered a family to enroll their children into government school or a “legally qualified” private school and the children must attend.

DNC Chairman, Chairman Dean, speaking at ICC Auditorium on Black History… Black History? Is it me or is there something wrong with a white man discussing Black History? Especially him. Headline, ‘Guilty White Guy Speaks on White Atrocities’. But I digress.
He actually said,
