More Excess from the Democrat House

While the Democrat thugs in the House of Representatives are trying to engineer our lives back to the 1800’s with Cap and Trade they are looking at renovating the House Parking Garage to a tune of $156,322 per Congresstwit. All you ever hear about Washington DC is the ‘wonderful’ subway system there (Metro). […]

Dems want to add Vehicle Mileage Tax (VMT) along with Gas Tax

According to Rep Oberstar (D-MN) the VMT is inevitable. He believes the tax could be implemented within a couple years. Oberstar is the House Transportation Chair.  VMT would be a personal invasion demanding the installation of a GPS tracking device in each vehicle so Big Brother can track your every step. Not […]

Rep Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) thinks Tea Parties ‘despicable & shameful’

With the Dhimmicrat Leftards in power it is now despicable and shameful for anyone who opposes their actions. Funny, I thought that’s what the leftards were all about. Demonstrating and protesting, they did it for 8 years with President Bush. How many effigies did I see of President Bush burned in those […]

AIG Bailout Nothing More Than a Conduit to Bailout International Banks

The WSJ published an article last weekend which details a little bit more on the so-called AIG bailout where in reality AIG is nothing more than a conduit to both foreign and domestic banks. So far that sum given to “AIG” is $173 billion since last September.

James Piererson at The Corner shines some light […]

State’s Rights

Considering the over reach of the Democrat Congress and the Obami many states are looking to remind the Federal Government the sovereignty of individual states. The latest egregious example is the ‘punish S.C. Governor Mark Sanford Amendment’ to the just passed Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (stimuless bill). This amendment is meant […]

DOH Secretary Napolitano thinks Canada is the greatest threat

On January 16th, 2009 Michael Hayden told reporters about the threat from Mexico, that it could be a greater threat than Iraq or even Iran.

In its latest report anticipating possible global security risks, the U.S. Joint Forces Command lumps Mexico and Pakistan together as being at risk of […]

Obama and Democrats killing the Small Business Engine

The engine of the economy that generally pulls the county out of a slump is being battered and abused by the Obama Administration and the Democrat controlled House and Senate. With unemployment rising, tax hikes and regulation are going to kill the business engine where growth in employment usually moves the quickest. But […]

TARP going to these robber barons?

When are the Dhimmicrats going to hold the Treasury Dept accountable for the funds paid out to these banking institutions? It is the Dhimmis who control both branches of the Legislature! They passed the bill for these TARP funds, they should be held responsible for how the funds are being spent. To […]

Courage Needs A Name

I’ve got another column from my friend Sherry Kelly. She also wrote last week’s column “What Price Power?“. There is much frustration with Republican leadership and legislators in Washington DC. They seem to have embraced everything which is antithetical to the Republican Platform, this includes our own Tennessee Senators Alexander and Corker.

Courage […]

Media are blaming TVA Sludge Spill on Coal Industry instead of Federal Utility ( FDR’s New Deal)

This disaster occurred when I was out of state so all I had to go on was what flashed across the screen on CNN, MSNBC and FNC as my Father was controlling the remote. I kept trying to figure out which ‘coal’ company was responsible. I had to go online to KnoxNews to […]

Is the collapse of the Mexican Government Imminent?

Back on December 15th I wrote about the civil war in Mexico. I was mocked by a long time fellow blogger Consul-at-Arms with this comment (note the comment was left at this post).
Is it officially a war now? Are we actually taking Mexicans as refugees now? I’ve been out of the office […]

TN Farm Hiring H-2A Visa Holders (foreigners) over American Citizens

We are continually told Americans won’t do the jobs so “immigrants” are needed. Even in this economy?
Tennessee Woman Accuses Farm of Favoring Foreigners
Sabrina Steele is accusing Pope’s Plant Farm in Greenback, Tenn. of discouraging her from taking a job so the farm could hire foreign workers. Pope’s Plant Farm applied to the […]

Different take on current debt

CJ at Soldier’s Perspective and come up with an interesting take on the current debt. He’s also written his own story on what is happening today in trying to “fix” the economy along with a prediction. I think he’s on the right track.
Here’s his chart:

I cropped out a small portion of the historical national […]

Do You Really Want to Bring Back the Unemployment of FDR’s ’30’s?

If you do, then follow Barack Hussein Obama’s drive to regenerate FDR’s New Deal. Yes, the Obami intends to spend in excess of $1 trillion on government “jobs” programs. He’s already created a new bureaucracy with his “Performance Czar” Nancy Killefer. I thought that’s what OMB (Office of Management and Budget) was […]

Pelousi fiddles while the economy goes down in flames

Nancy Pelousi has no problem telling Wall Street or Auto executives to cut their salaries but look at what she’s just done! She’s given herself and Congress a PAY RAISE! A pay raise in a time when so many Americans are losing their jobs. How heartless and money grubbing can you get? […]

TN Reps Vote along Party lines for Auto Bailout/UAW Bailout

Which way do you think the votes swayed for the auto bailout? Except for Jim Cooper the Democrats voted to bailout the UAW/auto union. We all know this isn’t to help the auto industry because there are a number of other auto company’s doing just fine. Especially those in the South. […]

Sympton of US Auto Company’s Cancer

The root of the cancer is the UAW with an enabling auto management. This story emphasizes the stupidity and ridiculousness of US auto companies. They need to declare bankruptcy and restructure to throw out the union thugs which have been holding a gun to their heads for decades now.
Anyone who knows people who […]

According to ACORN Food Stamps are considered income for mortgages

And you wonder why there was a meltdown in housing and subprime mortgages? All of this was pushed by the Democrats (read: Rep Barney Frank-D,MA and a number of other Democrats) who forced banks to accept this ridiculous concept.
From The Other McCain:
ACORN Housing took credit for developing “several innovative strategies” to get […]

Pigs at the trough. Now ‘they’ say $700B isn’t enough

Michelle Malkin has all the good news. But then we really aren’t all that surprised are we. This is only the beginning of the extortion of taxpayer’s pockets by Legislators.
Wonder what the Republican idiots who voted for this have to say now? I don’t need to wonder about the Dhimmicrats since they are […]

Did you catch the Bill O’Reilly vs Barney Frank screaming match?

I don’t usually watch Bill O’Reilly but turned on Fox News last night a bit early to watch some pre-debate spin and caught this hysterical screaming match:

Thanks to Gateway Pundit.
2008 Election, Bailout, Democrat failure, Barney Frank, Bill O’Reilly Video

Congress Arrogant and Dishonest on Bailout from Senator Jim Demint

This bailout bill is an affront to the US Constitution and any Senator who voted for it has contributed to our Country’s path toward Socialism.

The Common Sense Fix from Dave Ramsey

1 October 2008
Filed under: Congressional Stupidity, 2008 Election

Send this to your Representatives and Senators:
The Common Sense Fix
Years of bad decisions and stupid mistakes have created an economic nightmare in this country, but $700 billion in new debt is not the answer. As a tax-paying American citizen, I will not support any congressperson who votes to implement such a policy. Instead, I submit […]

YouTube and Time Warner trying to block documentary

Why would that happen? Because it’s all about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac which means it’s all about Democrats which means that Barack Hussein Obama’s in this up to his neck! Guess who supports and has given donations to Barack Hussein Obama? If you guessed Time Warner you would be correct. […]

Eye-opening details from bailout bill

Rep. Pence (R,Ind) enlightens us as to why this bill just plain sucks. I believe this is just the tip of the iceberg. I’ll add to the sections he’s pointing out.
From CNS News - Pence Calls on Conservatives to Oppose Bailout That ‘Nationalizes’ Bad Mortgages
Section 109 of the proposed law is entitled “Mortgage […]
