Illinois CAT Dealer: Illinois’ Worst Business Climate Getting Worse

On Wednesday I attended a “government day” event at Patten Industries, a 78-year-old Illinois Caterpillar dealer situated in Elmhurst, a northwest suburb of Chicago. The event, led by current General Manager Garrett Patten, featured a discussion on the severely unfavorable business climate in Illinois and why the state is lagging so horribly behind the leading […]

Diane Sawyer Again Links Tea Party and Sarah Palin to Rep. Giffords’ Shooting

In her exclusive interview with Representative Gabrielle Giffords (D, AZ), ABCs Diane Sawyer began with a retrospective of the terrible crime committed against the Congresswoman by a mentally disturbed, a-political gunman. But true to her left-wing agenda, Sawyer could not resist illicitly linking Tea Party activists, anti-Obamacare sentiment, and even Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to […]

ENOUGH of GOP ‘Debates’ Where Mediots Show Us How Tough They Are

In the upcoming Republican primary I am not voting for Brian Williams, Brett Baier, Scott Pelly, Wolf Blitzer or any other member of the Old Media.

Why I Helped Create NotMittRomney.com

Barack Obama is so utterly corrupt, hopelessly incompetent, shamefully cynical, and habitually dishonest that you could make a case that he’s the single worst President in American history. With the possible exception of his fellow Democrat James Buchanan, who helped set the stage for the Civil War with his mediocre, wrongheaded leadership, never has such […]

 

An Example of Why Radio Host Michael Medved is No Conservative

Michael Medved is touted as a “conservative” radio host from the Salem Radio Network. But just how conservative is he? One has to wonder with his constant dismissive attacks against any and every conservative politician. But this week he revealed another reason why he is less conservative than he pretends. Medved started his political life […]

 


One Chance That a President Mitt Romney Wouldn’t Be So Bad

I cannot support Mitt Romney in this coming GOP primary. The one reason why can be summed up simply as this: he flip flops. Romney has more flip flops than a California beachfront. Mitt has been proven a man without anchor adrift in a sea of issues that push him and pull him with the […]

 

Occupy LA Video: ‘Get Rid of America and Everything it Stands For’

The Occupy Whatever movement — if it can be called a movement — is at its heart a hate-America movement. With each new video we see this more and more and this cretin at Occupy Los Angeles is just one more example. An avowed communist, like so many of these people are, he feels that […]

 

Ill. Policy Institute CEO John Tillman Rebuts Critiques of His Op Ed

Last week I wrote a piece expressing my dismay at an op ed written by John Tillman, CEO of the excellent Illinois Policy Institute.

VIDEO: Walker’s Wisc. Union Reforms Are Working! (A Lesson for all Blue States)

Governor Scott Walker was the worst devil the unions could imagine. They targeted him and Wisconsin’s Republicans mercilessly earlier this year. Fortunately, the unions and their Democrat handmaidens lost most of these battles. But now some results are being seem from the efforts to curtail the un-democratic, unearned power of Wisconsin’s government employee unions. A […]

 

America, Take The Car Keys From obama

The current White House occupant just loves to use the old “Republicans drove the economy into a ditch” analogy.:  Clever, memorable, and completely false.:  The truth is, thanks to the effects of current as well as the cumulative effects of ”progressive” economic and social engineering policies, America’s economy is on a steep downgrade, tearing along […]

Media Tries to Make Rick Perry a Birther

The left-wing media’s newest attack on Rick Perry is an attempt to make him into a “birther” — one of those folks that think Barack Obama is not a natural born American, a requirement to become our president. This new attack, though, is almost Clintonian in its careful avoidance of the truth. The main attack […]

 

Bi-Racial Tea Party Group Harassed by GA Capitol Police, Occupy Wall Streeters Given Pass to Break Laws

There has been a lot of talk comparing and contrasting the Tea Partiers and these Occupy-Whatever people. But in Georgia we can see a stark difference. Tea Partiers are law-abiding citizens while the Occupy Atlantans are law breakers. Sadly, Capitol Police in Atlanta have sided with the Occupiers and against Tea Partiers. At the very […]

 

Politico Tries to Smear Herman Cain With Bad Pizza

Politico unleashed an incredibly misleading smear job on Herman Cain this week by attacking “his” Godfather’s Pizza in a faux taste test in both written and video form. The idea was to see if Herman’s pizza was a good product. Naturally the taste testers hated the pizza. But is Godfather’s Pizza really Herman’s pizza? Of […]

 

VIDEO: Rep. Joe Walsh Discusses Obamacare

Representative Joe Walsh appeared at a conference earlier this month and he was asked to address some of the troubles that this nation is going to suffer once Obamacare really kicks in.

Occupy Wall Street College Grads Should Sue Their Schools

What’s most puzzling about Occupy Wall Street is: a persistent resistance by recent college graduates to acknowledging the cause and effect phenomenon manifested by big government interference in business. When you employ the economic policies of Woodrow Wilson, FDR and Jimmy Carter you’re going to get a lousy economy because you’ve created a climate that’s unfriendly […]

 

Nancy Pelosi Says Republicans Want to Kill Women — But Who Are Really the Killers?

Nancy Pelosi has a message for you: Republicans want to kill women. Yes, there it is, another fine example of the Democrat “new tone.” All one can say to that is, “Nancy, you ignorant slut.” (If you’ll excuse my channeling an SNL era Dan Aykroyd?) What’s all her hypocritical fury being directed at? The Protect […]

 

Saudis Before Americans?

:  Based on allegations that there: was an Iranian plot to assassinate the Saudi Ambassador to the United States,: the current White House occupant and his Attorney General: chose to take: action against Iran.: : Since the alleged Iranian plans violated American and international laws, as well as centuries of: ambassadorial protocol, one can argue that it was important for the administration: to […]

 


Blame Corporations?

Would you hire people purely out of national loyalty knowing that doing so meant your company would eventually become fiscally insolvent? Corporations, like any business, are in business to make profits. Jobs are the byproduct of profits, not the other way around. Until U.S. corporate tax rates are cut to globally competetive levels, the corporations […]

Don’t Get Rid of the Electoral College

Ever since Al Gore won the popular vote but lost the 2000 presidential election, there has been a major push to abandon the Electoral College system. Superficially, there is a sense that the election was unfair and everyone’s vote did not count equally.: Three or four: times in history we have elected a president who did not […]
