So now the Nanny State England will try to make illegal to sell “energy drinks” to those under a certain age because a Boy collapsed with chest pains after ‘downing’ one. How about some causation probable cause here folks, before you go off half cocked. Again.

The US media has been circumspect concerning the events in Honduras this past week. Here we have a democratically elected leader who overstepped his constitutional bounds and was slapped down by the Honduran Supreme Court. Naturally the Dictators Club (United Nations) has also decried the ousting of Zelaya irregardless that it was lawfully done. […]

George Carlin is, well… George Carlin so if you’ve sensitive ears don’t press play.

He has to a large degree come to the right conclusion although much of his perspective is based on evolution-as-fact. But that makes this segment even more striking, that someone as rabidly liberal as Carlin, who’s belief in evolution is very obviously […]

Yup, Barney is at it again…. we will learn nothing from this because it would put too many liberals and moderates out of work, irregardless of party.

The power to tax is the power to destroy jobs. But oh, it’s “for the children”

Isn’t it interesting how American education resembles the American auto industry due to union contracts 700 NYC teachers paid to do nothing that cannot be allowed back into the classroom for various reasons. It is bad enough watching the auto industry crumble under the weight of the unions but to watch the public employees […]

The Democrats killed their own D.C. House Voting Rights Bill due to an amendment that would effectively return DC’s 2nd Amendment rights. Choice quote….
“We will never give up on equal rights for our residents,” she said, insisting that pro-gun Democrats could have opposed the amendment without sustaining political damage
So… she wants “equal rights for our […]

On the brink of President Obama socializing our health care industry the Canadians remind us why its a bad idea… Dying at home improves hospital efficiency

Here we go, proving once again being African-American is about being black rather than being from Africa. I’m sure this is earth shattering news….

Tax smoking because its unhealthy. Smokers gain weight and they’ll tax fat people next. But.. what if it was banning smoking that started it?
Could it be that dreaded law of unintended consequences which tends to thwart congress regularly?
It would make for some interesting stats - how many quit smoking over a set time […]

Five where convicted by a Federal jury of trying join forces with al-Qaida to topple Chicago’s Sears Tower and bomb FBI offices in hopes of igniting an anti-government insurrection.
So why isn’t this news?
Oh! Can’t have the public realize there really are bad guys in the world who are out to kill us. […]

The United States built a free nation on the acknowledgment of rights granted by our Creator yet 233 years later our Military destroys soldier’s Bibles because, in the words of the Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen, the military’s position is that it will never “push any specific religion.”
Ignoring the […]

Jeb Bush now counts his name among those “Republicans” stating it is time for the GOP to leave Reagan nostalgia behind. Sadly, my own Governor Mitch Daniels has also made such statements. I guess considering Bush Sr. and Reagan were not ideologically aligned (remember “voodoo economics”?) it should be no surprise that the Bush […]

If you’ve time, and a strong stomach, you might find President Obama’s 100 DAYS, 100 MISTAKES an enlightening read. Of course its published in the New York Post and since it takes work to refute them the opposition instead takes the position that the NYPost is less credible than the National Enquirer. When you […]

First it was inflate your tires. Now its ‘Wash Your Hands’. And they accused Bush Jr. of offer “over simplified” solutions “complex issues”?

The Green lobby in Washington currenly outnumbers Congress 4 to 1 but you won’t hear much on this because leftist groups aren’t considered “special interest groups” in the media.
So while you swallow all this junk about “green energy”, “sustainability” and all the jobs its going to create never ever forget the lobbying efforts that […]

I can’t help but think going into bankruptcy is like swimming with the polar bear club… you don’t see those guys easing into the waters…. much more painful that way. Or - is that the plan?

Speaking of the party of the “little guy” how is it they’re the ones erecting surveillance towers in cities they control? I thought it was the Bush Administration who were the anti- privacy fascists? Hm… hello… is anyone out there awake?

A common problem with the Left, Greens, Fascists, Marxists, Stalinists pretty much anywhere in the world is that like all enemies of America they clearly broadcast their intentions.
In America these same are much like the kid who thinks because he can’t see you, you can’t see him. And that they are getting way […]

And as expected the U.S. capitulates in Afghanistan. It can’t be to save money, they’re printing so much these days who’d notice a couple little nation building projects anyway?

All this “green” talk about “sustainable” energy and “taxing carbon” means one thing, clearly: Enjoy your cheap electricity now because it’s soon going to be history. Obama’s climate plan will cost energy companies and additional two trillion dollars and as with any consumer product we all know it isn’t the manufacturer who pays […]

If you have then you know prices are only part of the problem. In some areas sporting goods stores and even WalMart are rationing ammunition purchases and a lot of shelves are simply empty. Though all calibers are effected the few most common handgun (.380,9mm, 38spl, .40 S&W, .45ACP) and rifle calibers (.223/5.56mm, .308/7.62×51, 7.62×39) […]

In the face of rising historical revisionism we find refuge in old titles but that may not be the case for much longer as books published before 1986 are deemed hazardous to children under the recently passed consumer protection bill which purports to be a solution to the rash of lead dosed Chinese toy imports. […]

Good grief, there is no end to why the world hates the United States. The newest one is our taste for soft toilet paper which they’re equating to being ‘worse than driving Hummers’
You know, I really don’t care if the rest of the world hates us or not. There is a reason our forefathers left […]

Before too many people think global warming is “Exaggerated” and we can’t get our Green-Fascist agenda into law so we can control the productivity of the entire world through cap and trade.
