VIDEO: A Time for Choosing

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

“So we have come to a time for choosing,” warned Ronald Reagan in his famous speech nominating Barry Goldwater for President in 1964. It was one of the most important speeches in American history — and remains terrifyingly true today. Millions without jobs. American values under attack. Bailouts, deficits, and debt that threatens the future […]

 

Cal. Union Launches Effort to Recruit Republican Candidates

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This is a novel approach. The Service Employees International Union (SEIU), one of the largest government employee unions in the nation, has decided that they’ve had enough of all those darn Republicans that are… well… acting like Republicans. So, the union has lighted on a new way to be rid of all those darn Republican-like […]

 

Thoughts on the CNN Republican Debate

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Well the CNN debate of some of the GOP candidates for president is now in the history books and I thought I’d give my impression of those vying there. Before I do that, I have to comment on John King’s constant guttural vocal tick. It sounded like he had Tourette Syndrome with the grunts and […]

Election Laws Need an Overhaul, Wisc. Case in Point

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

There is no doubt that our election laws are in serious disarray. So many laws and rules have been written and added to the plethora of rules and regulations that already exist that confusion is more likely the case than clarification. As several recall petitions in Wisconsin wing their way to a polling place near […]

 

Democrats Win Special Election Thanks To Medicare And Phony Tea Party Candidate, But Mainly Phony Tea Party Candidate

Posted on by John Hawkins

So, the GOP lost another special election. We’ve been losing a lot of those lately. Course, an election is never just an election when the Democrats can create a phony message point out of it. Democrats scored an upset in one of New York’s most conservative Congressional districts on Tuesday, dealing a blow to the […]

 

Tenn. Voters To Get Chance to Say Abortion Not A ‘Protected Right’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This could shape up as a major battle between supporters of infanticide and pro-lifers in 2014. Pro-abortion forces will likely flood the Volunteer State with out-of-state money to defeat a referendum that may appear on the 2014 ballot allowing citizens to decide whether or not their state constitution really does have a special right protecting […]

 

American Government Must Be Torn Down and Rebuilt

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In New York you need a license to work as a gas pumper at a gas station. A contradiction since you do not need that expensive license, training, and government meddling to pump your own gas in New York. In Chicago it is supposedly illegal to fly a kite inside the city limits. In Delaware […]

 

Hats Off to Canada

Posted on by Dave Blount

Even as Barack Hussein Obama tries to force the center-right USA to the left by ramming through exceedingly unpopular legislation like ObamaCare, Stephen Harper is leading more liberal Canada in the opposite direction: Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper won his coveted majority government in elections that changed Canada’s political landscape with the opposition Liberals and […]

 

East St. Louis: More Voters Registered Than Citizens That Live There

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It is a particular problem with our voter registration systems across the USA that the voting roles are so filled with ineligible names that we aren’t sure how many voters really live in any particular district. East St. Louis is no different. In fact, East St. Louis seems to have more voters registered in its […]

 

Gas Prices Cause Hardship. More Importantly, They Harm Obama’s Approval Ratings

Posted on by William Teach

Obviously, the second part is more pressing to the Liberals at the Washington Post, rather than how much Americans are suffering Soaring gasoline prices are biting into household incomes and nibbling at Americans’ fuel consumption – and support for President Obama, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll. About six in 10 respondents said they […]

Free and Fair Elections True The Vote Style

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I am here in sunny Houston, Texas attending the opening night of the True The Vote Summit and what a night it has been. We heard some inspiring speeches for this sold out event, saw some interesting attendees, and met an awful lot of great folks. It has been thrilling to see several hundred handpicked […]

Patriots and activists from 23 states are about to gather together on March 25 and 26 in Houston, Texas to attend the True The Vote Summit, an effort to make “true” the electoral system in every polling place in the country, to stop voter fraud, and to quash the intimidation of voters.

Obama’s Chicago Machine Helping Wisconsin Fleebaggers?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Newsradio 620 in Milwaukee has a shocking story about the dirty underground efforts by the Chicago political machine loyal to Rahm Emanuel and President Obama that is apparently applying its dark arts again, this time assisting the leftist, fleebagging Wisconsin State Senators in their efforts to thwart the democratic process in the Badger State. WTMJ […]

 

Emanuel’s First Political Scandal: Hires Ethics Challenged Team Member

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Rahm Emanuel hasn’t even officially set his first foot in the Mayor’s Office and he’s already had his first political misstep: He hired a transition team member that has ethics problems. Last year Judy Erwin was forced to resign as director of the Illinois Board of Higher Education because she was caught using state offices […]

 

Video: Stop Obama and His Union Bosses!

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Courtesy of the Republican National Committee… This is exactly right. While every state is drowning in debt, Barack Obama and the billions that unions have spent on him and his Democrat Party is being put toward thwarting the will of the voters and to making the state’s and the federal government’s debt far, far worse.

 

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. […]

 

Mark Levin puzzled by Ann Coulter’s bizarre endorsement of Chris Christie, who supports gun control, amnesty, Obamacare and climate legislation

Posted on by Doug Ross

Cub Reporter Biff Spackle was kind enough to transcribe the following soliloquy by radio host Mark Levin last Monday night. I want to politely address my dear friend — and she is my dear friend — Ann Coulter. We’ve had some email exchanges. What is your great love of Chris Christie based on? The man […]

 

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 […]

 

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

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Ben Smith of POLITICO is reporting that the Democrat leadership Council is on it’s last paws and about to go belly up. This is one more little hint that the centrist, the moderate, or the “Blue Dog” Democrat is truly an extinct animal in America today. The Donkey’s big tent is more like a birdcage […]

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

On February 5, 2011, I attended the Illinois GOP Ronald Reagan 100th Birthday Diner and there I had the opportunity to have a quick few minutes with former U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania Rick Santorum.
