A Point Without Partisanship — A Scandal Everyone Should Be Concerned About
With the exception of CBS News, few media outlets have paid much attention to Operation Gun Walker a/k/a “Fast and Furious,” which has no relation to Vin Diesel. The lack of media attention may be about to change. This is a huge and troublesome scandal. The left is, I think, afraid to touch it because [...]

Attacking Attack Watch’s Attack on my Attack on the Auto Bailouts
Most of you are well aware of the glorious goon squad known as Attack Watch. Primarily from the fantastic video highlighting all of their features, but mostly because we’ve all come to the mutual agreement that they are a gigantic joke. Yet, I feel compelled to acknowledge that I was fortunate enough to be attacked [...]
EPA Regulations Will Result in 1.44 Million Job Losses
Last week, I wrote about how the EPA was warring with industry, one can only assume in an attempt to destroy jobs. As that war continues, I thought it might be helpful to put some actual numbers in front of our readers so they can get the clearest picture possible about just how many jobs [...]

Debt & Jobs dominate GOP FoxNews/Google debate question requests.
Let me explain this one: there’s a debate Thursday that’s being sponsored by FoxNews & Google. Google is letting people submit questions via YouTube – frankly, this has more than a slight whiff of gimmick about it, but let’s roll with the notion for a moment. The preliminary survey of submitted questions indicate that the [...]
Is the US Department of Labor About To Develop Hit Lists of Individuals To Be Targeted By Unions?
As a preface, sometimes it helps to have been “on the other side” when trying to determine what the unions’ game plan is within the Obama Administration. What you are about to read comes from having been on the other side and, quite frankly, putting two and two together. And, if you are not alarmed [...]
Looking at the recent House special election record.
Now that we’ve had some time to digest last week’s special election results – or, in the Democrats’ case, have the equivalent of a gallstone attack over them – I think that it’s a time that we look at some of the House’s special election results over the last two election cycles generally. Partially because [...]
The Simple Math of Obama’s Ponzi Scheme
Well, 32 months into his presidency, Obama has finally released his jobs and deficit reduction plans. Surprisingly, he is not attempting to obfuscate his true motivation this time. As Obama said yesterday, it is “simple math.” It’s $1.57 trillion in comprehensive tax hikes + $1.08 trillion in non-existent war spending + $430 billion in phantom [...]
Something To Consider Before We Bail Out The Eurozone
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Eurozone. No; sadly, the failing and fumbling Postmoderns haven’t been laughed out of power. No, the masses of Europe have not returned to their spiritual gravamen. But, given the impending Greek default, they sure do want something fungible to jam in their stockings. Never worry; [...]
