My former home state must be so proud.

Minnesota High Court Rules for Franken in Senate Battle
Minnesota, Al Franken, Senate, Democrats

Here’s another example of Democrats who profess to support the troops, actions not words reveal their true colors once again.
Democrats block effort to make it easier for deployed soldiers to vote

NASHVILLE – Today at the state capital Democrats voted against legislation that would have made it easier for Tennesseans serving in the military to participate […]

What is it with Minnesota and Islam? Taxpayers support the madrassa like charter school for Muslims and now have a state program where in essence the state is processing Shariah compliant mortgages for Muslims.

From IBD - Mortgage Madness
The Minnesota program, the first in the nation, will be administered by the state’s housing agency, which […]

Good grief, I think I’m stunned. This ruling came out of the Socialist Nanny State of Minnesota. How is it possible there could a modicum of common sense left in the state?

I just had to laugh at this one. How’s that biodiesel working out? This is cruel and inhuman treatment of “The Children”. Leaving them out in those subzero temperatures.

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — The Bloomington School District is closing schools Friday, after extremely cold temperatures caused the biodiesel fuel in school […]

I got this photo and poem from one of my brothers in Minnesota. Where is Al Bore’s Global Warming?
It’s winter in Minnesota
And the gentle breezes blow,
70 miles per hour at 52 below!
Oh, how I love Minnesota
When the snow’s up to your butt;
You take a breath of […]

I’m wondering what politician this fired MN state emergency manager knows. Why would a security agency hire someone who is already known to have stolen money from a government agency. The only thing that comes to mind is this person knows someone in Congress!
Wonder why citizens get disgusted with government agencies and government […]

Tyson drops Labor Day holiday for Eid al-Fitr
Workers at Tyson Foods’ poultry processing plant in Shelbyville will no longer have a paid day off on Labor Day, but will instead take the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr in the fall.
A recent press release from the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU) stated that a […]

My puppy in a bag was nosing around at Olive Garden tonight in Maple Grove before we went to see the Glenn Beck simulcast.

This is really laughable. For those who are unaware, Al Franken is running against Senator Norm Coleman in the MN Senate race. The MN Democrat Farm Labor Party has endorsed Franken disregarding his violent and virulent comments about women.

Katherine Kersten, columnist for the Star Tribune, wrote about an investigation she had initiated on the Tarek ibn Zivad Academy (Tiza) back in March and April. See More on the Islamic Charter School in Minnesota (yes, it’s taxpayer funded).
Tiza is back in the news again. Apparently the taxpayer funded Islamic charter school isn’t […]

Earlier in March Katherine Kersten wrote about the Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy (TIZA) which is a taxpayer funded charter school. Katherine Kersten now has first hand knowledge of the religious nature of the school which goes beyond after school time. It’s mandated religious attendance by all the students for assemblies.

Now that the Forest Lake High School (in Minnesota) has received a lot of negative attention the school administrators have changed their story on why they canceled the appearance by the Vets for Freedom Heroes Tour. Now, they’re saying it’s because of a concern for security for the students! Previously, they said it […]

This is so pathetic and just downright unAmerican and yes, unpatriotic. The Vets for Freedom Heroes tour arranged for these highly decorated war heroes to stop at north suburban high school in the Twin Cities and the spineless administrative idiots caved to the few whiny anti-war parents. This is a sad statement that […]

Minnesota’s moose are dying; global warming may be to blame
Moose are as much a symbol of Minnesota as wolves, lakes and loons. But wildlife biologists say the state’s moose population is in trouble. Moose numbers have plummeted in northwestern Minnesota to near extinction. The animals are also dying prematurely […]

Katherine Kersten tells us about more Dhimmitude in Minnesota - at taxpayers expense.
Are taxpayers footing bill for Islamic school in Minnesota?
Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy (TIZA) — named for the Muslim general who conquered medieval Spain — is a K-8 charter school in Inver Grove Heights. Its approximately 300 students are mostly the children of low-income […]

I love this story. Just another example of how our Marines step up no matter where they are!
Thanks to RCT-1 for the story:
Editor’s note: The post below is a letter written by a witness during the heroic acts of the Navy corpsmen with 1st Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, at an airport during […]

Katherine Kersten writes about the Golden Gopher Army ROTC at the University of Minnesota. From purpose to fitness to leadership…..the program continues to attract students and in fact has grown in the past couple years. How could that be - we’re at war and according to lefty wingnuts an illegal war. It […]

You tell me what the hell is wrong with an ad thanking our troops at Christmas time for the job they’ve done serving this country? SCREW THEM! This was a PAID ad that was refused/denied by NBC! WHY? WHY?
I’m telling you I am P.O’d. This is sick and demented. […]

This time I’m heading to MinneSOTA. My godson/nephew has his Eagle Scout ceremony on Sunday. I’m so darn proud of this kid. Days before his 10th Birthday he was in a 4 wheeler accident, he came out of it with assorted internal injuries plus a traumatic brain injury. The following 6 […]

There is not only a problem with the recently passed SCHIP bill which President Bush vetoed but there is a problem with the EXISTING SCHIP program. What a shocker huh? Turns out there’s an awful lot of adults on the program “for the children”!

In driving from western Minnesota to the Twin Cities on Sunday I took these 2 photos.  It was gray and rainy out - if you haven’t heard they’ve had a bit of rain in Minnesota in the last few days.  Not only MN but Wisconsin and Illinois.  My drive on Monday from St. Paul to […]

Seriously, it’s cold here.  The last few nights the temp has been in the 50’s and today the high here is 60 with rain.  Of course, I brought no warm clothing cause I figured it was SUMMER!  Monday I am going to have to drive from the refrigerator into the sauna.  Last I heard was […]
