Egypt and the History of Revolutions

Possibly one of the better interviews seen on television in a while, if for no other reason than it is a comical illustration of how our media jumps on a bandwagon and considers anyone who points out potential problems to be, at best, outrageous and, at worst, a lunatic.  Their reaction when the “outrageous lunatic” [...]

“Innovative” State of the Union: It Glows in the Dark!

I will confess that I did not sit through the whole State of the Union speech the other night due to a prior commitment. While I am so sorry for that, truly, (really, honestly…no, I mean it) I did catch bits and pieces during the replay later and then saw some more through the hash, [...]

Tax Cut Compromise $858 billion Boondoggle – Endangers US Credit Rating

By Shelli Dawdy This is a continuation from yesterday’s article about the Tax Cut Compromise. If Democrats’ want to play class warfare, perhaps the debate should include such vivid examples of where this kind of rhetoric can ultimately lead if it is allowed to stand unchallenged.

I had my TV on far more than usual this weekend, though, and found myself inundated with the seemingly obligatory rehashes by every political talking [...]

As Election Nears – This One Deserves a Rewind

It’s time for some campaignin’…entertaining to be sure, but I think it’s worth a look beyond the entertainment value. This video is funny because it contains truth. The trouble is, the truth in political jokes are on us…the voters. How DID we end up with those two candidates? It’s more than a little freaky that [...]

WHO Cares What The UN Thinks? Not AZ Governor Brewer

On August 28, I published an article entitled “Obama Surrendering US Sovereignty To UN?“. I was hoping what appeared to be the unconstitutional subjection of the United States to review by an outside government would garner attention beyond that paid by the Heritage Foundation. I was not disappointed. Arizona Governor Jan Brewer definitely noticed. She [...]

Does the President have the authority to subject the United States to review of an outside entity? Is the President undermining our sovereignty?
