Wisc. and Ind. Democrats: Union Cash Driving Democrats to Run and Hide

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

With Democrat state legislators in Wisconsin and now Indiana fleeing their states so that they don’t have to do their job — just call them fleebaggers — it would be easy to assume that Democrats are cowards. If not cowards, then petulant children throwing temper tantrums because voters did not give them a power-lock majority. […]

 

Wisconsin Teachers: Putting Kids at Risk

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Why do these teachers hate Wisconsin’s kids? A reader named Tom from Des Moines, Iowa, emailed me and asked some pertinent questions of these recalcitrant teachers. I have asked some of these questions here myself and I have heard a few of them floated on Twitter, Facebook and the radio, but it is good to […]

 

No Truth In Left’s Wisconsin Union Support or Its State Budget Surplus Story

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

First came the disgrace of supposedly intelligent teachers in Wisconsin sporting hundreds of signs calling Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker “Hitler” and now comes the entire liberal blogosphere and it’s echo chamber in the left-media establishment claiming that Gov. Walker has “ginned up” a budget shortfall when he actually has a budget surplus. One wonders when […]

 

PBS Sends Belated Valentine to MoveOn.org

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

On February 18, our taxpayer-subsidized entertainers at PBS gave a little shoutout to one of their most stout supporters. On its Twitter feed on Friday, PBS heartily thanked the extremist left-wing activist group Moveon.org for its support in helping the broadcaster push for greater amounts of money from the pockets of the taxpayers and continue […]

 

Wisc. Union Thug: ‘First They Take Away Unions, Then They Take Away The Jews…’??? Unions Want Legalized Theft, Plain and Simple

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

-By Warner Todd Huston Every so-called teacher in Wisconsin needs to be removed from the classroom and should not be allowed to return until she can prove that she’s become educated enough to understand that no politician in Wisconsin is “just like Hitler.” These thugs latest claim is that “it’s not about the money” but […]

 

So They Called Him Hitler, So What? Grow Up, The Both of You!

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

You know, I am about sick to death of this childish back and forth between the unhinged left and the oh-so-outraged right on the name calling issue, especially where it concerns the use of the name of humanity’s most evil villain, Hitler. Yeah, they said (put latest politician here) is Hitler. But so what? Let’s […]

 

Getting Rich Off the Taxpayers: School Administrators Double Dipping Pensions

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It must be nice to work for the government. Sadly it’s the most lucrative way to make a living in American history. To “win life’s lottery” all you have to do is get a job with the government — whether the federal or state government — at practically any level and voila, welcome to easy […]

 

Great: One of the Most Violent Union Thugs Now Appearing With Thug Teachers in Wisconsin

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka has decided to flock to the side of thug Wisconsin teachers on Friday. This should not be much of a surprise.

At CPAC this year, I interviewed two of the candidates for Kay Bailey Hutchison’s soon to be vacated Senate seat in the great state of Texas.

The American Conservative Union (ACU) is the entity that runs the biggest annual conservative event, the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Next year CPAC will be headed by a new face, Al Cardenas. Now former Chairman David Keene turns over the reigns to Cardenas after the 2011 CPAC event. Cardenas has a compelling story, indeed. […]

 

Union Thug Whines That People Are Mistreating Union Thugs

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This one is hilarious. Union chief James P. Hoffa of the Teamsters has an op ed in the Detroit News where he’s crying that everyone is turning against unions these days. Yes, ole Jimmy is yelling, “leave unions alone!” Hoffa’s headline whines out, “American ills not caused by unions.” We call that a straw man […]

 

How Obama’s Big Labor Pals Warp the System

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Last September the Senate refused to reverse a rules change made out of pocket by Obama’s National Mediation Board. The rule change reversed a 75-year-old practice and made it possible to unionize a company even if less than half of its employees wanted to be unionized. Previous to the rules change, any company in the […]

 

Palin Gives Time A Few Minutes of Her Time About Its False ‘Reporting’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The media is so sure that only the worst about Palin could possibly be true that false stories, out right lies, and even comedy bits are constantly presented as actual news. Time Magazine is the latest to fall into that trap by reporting a satirical Internet posting about Sarah Palin as hard news. It all […]

 

CPAC 2011: Ron Paul’s Last Straw With YAF (Time for Paulies to Grow Up)

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Ron Paul may have won the CPAC straw poll but he’s lost Young Americans for Freedom, a conservative, college Republican-style organization to which he used to belong. Just as the results of the straw poll were revealed YAF announced they were kicking Paul out of the organization. This is a pretty big deal, too. If […]

 

Senator Jim Webb: The Hypocrisy at the Core of the Democrat Party

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Virginia’s Junior Senator, Jim Webb, is already hanging up his senatorial career. One term was enough for the so-called moderate Virginia Democrat. He’s announced that he will not run for reelection. But the fact that he got elected at all shows the essential hypocrisy at the heart of the Democrat Party. Webb, you see, is […]

 

Union Boss Says Advocates for Spending Cuts are ‘Mentally Retarded’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In a perfect example of why unions are the biggest problem for government budget reform, John Gage, President of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), has just pronounced anyone that wants to cut the overly generous pay, benefits, and pensions of government employees are “mentally retarded.” This is the to-the-hilt fight that the unions […]

 

More of Rahm’s Union Troubles

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In the race for the Chicago Mayor’s office we have seen quite a lot of evidence that Chicago’s union bosses are not big Rahm Emanuelites. This week we got another hint in that direction as several more unions came out in support of Emanuel’s most serious opponent, Gery Chico. The Chico campaign added a group […]

Now THERE’S Chutzpah: Obama Claims He hasn’t Raised Taxes?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

John Kartch over at Americans for Tax Reform found President Obama’s claim that he hasn’t raised taxes a bit, shall we say, quixotic. At one point in the interview with Obama conducted by Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly and shown on Sunday, Obama stated bald faced that he didn’t do so. The truth seems to be […]

 

More Evidence that Centrists Democrats Are Dead

Ronald Reagan: Father of the Tea Party

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

We are still living in Ronald Reagan’s era, despite the constant refrains from Democrats and the left that Reaganism is long dead. As we observe his 100th birthday, it is also beneficial to point out that in many ways Reagan is the father of the Tea Party Movement. It was his great success, his sunny […]

 

Tennessee County School Board Fires Teachers Union

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Now this is more like it. Back in October of 2010 the Summer County, Tennessee School Board decertified the Sumner County Education Association (SCEA), the union for county teachers, because it no longer satisfied the law by counting as members fifty percent plus one of the total number of employees requiring a teaching certificate. This, […]

 

Union Fights to Force You into Obamacre While Getting Waivers for Itself

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) is one of Obama’s biggest donors.

Yet, even as they have been allowed to […]

Remember when you were a kid and you got caught doing something you shouldn’t have been doing?

Senate’s Repeal Healthcare Vote Failure Further Makes Lie to Term ‘Conservative Democrat’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Newly minted West Virginia Senator, Democrat Joe Manchin, ran for office denigrating Obama’s take over of our national healthcare system with his Obamacare law.
