A Letter from the Boss (Reprise – Reality Check)

A “Letter from the Boss” was floating around the Internet right after the election.  In general it says “Obama’s poilicies are increasing my expenses, you voted for him, I am laying you off.”    Good political fodder for consevatives and liberals alike.

It has now been 100 days and the DOW hovers just over 8000.   Layoffs [...]

This is what “news” has come to?

For Obama, hipness is what it is

This would not be so bad if this was Entertainment Tonight or even the Today Show, which are “almost- news agencies” already. But this was Politico. They spend about three written pages showcasing his “accomplishments” in being hip. Sighting authors of hip culture. I thought they we somewhat [...]

Huffington Post reused edited image as a different city to dig Tea-Parties

As you would expect the Huffington Post has a bit of an issue covering these tea-parties but this was priceless coverage.

I found this picture with the heading “Barack Hussein Obama The New face Of Hitler”– T. Romao, Chicago.”

And then further down the page in another section I found this with the heading [...]

Obama Administration: These things that are now “torture”

With the discloser of the memos it has become very obvious that our definition of torture has softened a bit. I read through the events and lunched at times. I know it was not nice… but a caterpillar.. come on. I was thinking that would terrorize my daughter (she too thinks insects are out to [...]

100 days now what?

It has now been 100 days and the DOW hovers just over 8000.   Layoffs continue.   President Obama’s stated budget will dwarf all deficits ever recorded.   There is no hope in stopping in in Congress and they are likley to add more of their own projects to it.  At that is just the downpayment as we [...]

Tea Party Atlanta Biggest and Best

I was there, I was proud and I was surprised. I had hoped for 5,000 people and a ratio 9 to 1 (90% normal people and 10% nut jobs). I was surprised on both counts.

The counts coming in are north of 10,000 and may be as high as 20,000 people. I could not [...]

TeaParty Attendees: beware of wolves in conservative clothing

If you attending your local teaparty event Watch out for random Liberal bloggers trying to play this as far right anti-government folks. Don’t let them. This government is too big and we are taxed enough to support a proper government. This is not “no tax, anarchy”. This is slimmer more efficient and more fair representation. [...]
