Is This The Best We Can Do?

Posted on by Robert Cleveland

It seems that Republicans’ plans to stick to the issue of Obamacare right up to the midterm elections are falling through, as Congressional leadership – including and especially Speaker John Boehner – have renewed their push for “comprehensive” immigration reform.:  This is a losing issue for Republicans, so it begs the question of why the […]

 

Exploiting the American Prom

Posted on by Thomas Purcell



Proms sure have gotten expensive these days.: â€¨â€¨According to the San Jose Mercury News, high school kids spend nearly $4 billion annually for dresses, accessories, flowers, beauty products, limos and other prom-related items. The average couple spends upward of $1,000 for the one-time event.:  

That got me thinking about my own prom in 1980.: â€¨â€¨I didn’t know […]

 

Ignorance And Cronyism Are The Only Settled Sciences

Posted on by Derek Hunter

An honest debate with a progressive is almost as rare as a verified sighting of Bigfoot. You’d have better luck getting a devout Scientologist to say L. Ron Hubbard was a horrible writer than you would to get a progressive to admit the “science” behind climate change is not all it’s cracked up to be. […]

 

Unhealthy Trends in Nation Beg for Conservative Leadership

A new, sweeping demographic snapshot of the United States, “The Next America,” has been produced by the Pew Research Center.

Married Lesbian Threesome Expecting Child

Posted on by Ashley Herzog

I remember the days when people scoffed at the idea that gay marriage could open the door for legalized polygamy and other bizarre arrangements. That would never happen, they said–marriage will remain:  a union between two people, gay or straight, who love each other. Well, a married lesbian threesome is expecting “their” first child. How […]

 

Woman Who Killed Teen on Bike Suing Parents for Emotional Distress

Posted on by Ashley Herzog

What is this world coming to? A woman who killed a 17-year-old boy on his bike is suing his parents for the emotional distress she supposedly endured.

“God” Replaced With “Peace” In Pledge of Allegiance at Madison, Wisconsin High School

Posted on by Dustin Siggins

Well, this is an interesting story, assuming what the family shared is accurate: Just last month, Samantha Murphy, a brave high school junior at Madison East High School, emailed me. In her freshman year, Madison East did not offer the Pledge every morning. Her family decided to talk to the principal and school board, reminding […]

 

The NAACP Was Set To Give “Lifetime Achievement Award” To LA Clippers Owner Caught Making Racist Comments

Posted on by Dustin Siggins

I’m staying pretty clear of this Donald Sterling flap, for a few reasons — for one thing, there appears to still be some uncertainty that it’s Sterling’s voice — but it’s worth noting that the NAACP is pulling the Lifetime Achievement Award it was going to give him: “He is not receiving a lifetime achievement […]

 

Obama Library Starts Off With $100 Million in Corruption in Chicago

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Why is it not a surprise that the first moves to make Chicago the home of the Barack Hussein Obama Presidential Library are born in corruption? But I suppose it is a fitting way to start a library for one of the biggest failure and most corrupt politicians ever to sit in the White House. […]

Posted on by William Teach

Is this an Important Story Of The Day? Is it Vital Information? Trending? Nope. What it is is an article that made me laugh first thing in the morning due to the absurdity, which did not go over well since I have a chest cold. That said, there is relevance to this Fox News article […]

We Want Politicians to Lie

Posted on by Thomas Purcell

Get this: The U.S. Supreme Court is about to decide whether false accusations and mudslinging during political campaigns are illegal.: As it goes, during the 2010 election in Ohio, an anti-abortion group, the Susan B. Anthony List, sought to launch a billboard campaign that accused then-Rep. Steven Driehaus, a Democrat, of supporting taxpayer-funded abortion – because […]

 

Jeb’s Awkward Entry into the 2016 Presidential Race

Posted on by Rick Jensen

Oh, wouldn’t Democrats love for Jeb Bush to run for President in 2016!Perhaps that’s why he’s such a popular figure in the national media recently.

Student Says Community College Rejected Him Because Of His Christian Faith

Posted on by Ashley Herzog

It looks like more and more practicing Christians are being driven into “the closet.” A student was denied entry into a radiation therapy program at Baltimore County Community College because of his faith.

Lesbian Couple Arrested For Abusing Disabled Son; Neighbors Heard Boy Wailing, “Do You Love Me?”

Posted on by Ashley Herzog

This story is so sickening it actually brought tears to my eyes. A lesbian couple in Georgia has been arrested for locking a 6-year-old boy in a cage and torturing him while he reportedly yelled “Don’t kill me!” and “Do you love me?” The boy is described as having “psychological issues.” Duh. Who wouldn’t, living […]

 

Democrats are racists too, media just “whitewashes” it away

Posted on by Samuel Gonzalez

Chris Matthews was so impressed with President Obama’s State of the Union speech that for an entire hour he said he forgot Obama was black. That comment demonstrated the type of racism that is typical among white Democrats–the racism of low expectations. Matthews didn’t pay a price for those words and there wasn’t even a […]

Over 20 Republican Senators are pushing the Administration on its violations of federal law with regards to immigration: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and 21 Republican senators accused President Obama of trying to further dilute immigration law Thursday. “Clearly, the urgent task facing your administration is to improve immigration enforcement, not to look for new […]

 

California Democrats Kill Bill That Would Have Banned Felons from Working on Obamacare Exchange

Posted on by Dustin Siggins

Since the exchanges launched, a major concern has been the security of personal information. In California, Democrats have killed a bill that would have prevented certain felons from working on Affordable Care Act exchanges, arguing that existing measures are adequate:   Under the proposal by Assemblywoman Connie Conway (R-Tulare), Covered California would not be able […]

 

Lovely: Feds Spent $26.2 Million On Medicare Advantage For Illegal Immigrants

Obama Weekly Address Pushes Raising The Minimum Wage

Posted on by William Teach

I would have guessed that it would have been about something like the pressing issues in the Eastern Pacific, seeing as how Obama is on a trip to visit our allies in the region. Or, perhaps, the issue of Ukraine, of which there is a worry about open warfare. Nope (video here) Hi, everybody. In […]

 

5 Lives Wrecked By Obamacare

Posted on by John Hawkins

  Liberals support cruel policies that decimate people’s lives; yet they like to think of themselves as compassionate and kind. So, they judge programs based on the good intentions they claim to have had, not the actual results. Liberals started out by telling everyone that,: “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan.”: They said,: “If […]

 

Bad Penny Boehner Just Won’t Go Away

Posted on by Joe Guzzardi

The stupefyingly stubborn John Boehner is at it again. A week ago at a Las Vegas fundraiser, the House speaker audaciously said that he’s hell-bent on passing an immigration bill this year. Then at the exclusive Brown’s Run Country Club in his Ohio home district, Boehner publicly ridiculed his fellow House Republicans for refusing to […]
