Democrats Big New Push: Punish “Corporate Deserters”

There’s nothing better than bringing back ideas that failed before even when Democrats controlled the Senate, and never seemed to get a vote in the Democrat controlled Senate about stopping corporate tax inversions, just a failed vote on slapping on extra taxes (The Hill) Congressional Democrats said Tuesday they would seek any and all avenues […]

AP Fact Checks Obama’s SOTU, Finds It Wanting

No, I did not watch Obama’s State Of The Union speech. I haven’t bothered with most of his SOTU campaign speeches, nor do I bother watching any of his speeches. They are a raft of campaign speeches, replete with lies, half truths, and insults aimed at those who disagree with him. He typically calls for […]

The “NAACP Bombing” … or The Barbershop Bang?

COLORADO SPRINGS — From the liberal media’s coverage of my beautiful adopted hometown, you’d think we live in a KKK-infested hotbed where every person of color fears for his or her life. Take a look at these ominous headlines: –“Bombing of NAACP headquarters harkens to bad old days” — MSNBC –“Colorado Springs explosion recalls violence […]

Restate of the Union

President Obama sure is consistent. His State of the Union address sounded like his other speeches: What I’ve done is great! America is in a much better position. We’ve created a manufacturing sector that’s adding jobs. More oil is produced at home. I cut deficits in half! Give me a break. The deficit is lower […]

Cadillac Tax: Clunker for Labor, Opportunity for GOP

There’s one part of Obamacare that even Democrats hate: the Cadillac tax. It doesn’t go into effect until 2018, but it’s already forcing workers to give up generous tax-free health benefits and roiling union negotiations across the country. Politics is a game of addition. The growing uproar over this tax may even present an opportunity […]

Switzerland Wins As Its Central Bank Surrenders

If anyone had any doubt how severely the global economy has been distorted by the actions of central bankers, the “surprise” announcement last week by the Swiss National Bank (SNB) to no longer peg the Swiss franc to the euro should provide a moment of crystal clarity. The decision sent the franc up almost 30% […]

France needs no-nonsense approach to weeding out domestic terrorism

During a White House press conference last week in the wake of the Paris terror attacks, U.S President Barack Obama took the opportunity to school France on how to fight terrorism through social assimilation and approaches that don’t involve the military or law enforcement. Ironically, he lectured the French while standing just a few miles […]

The Last Taboo

What happens when we run out of taboos? The question arises thanks to a column in Salon.com from one Jenny Kutner, an assistant editor “focusing on sex, gender and feminism.” This particular column focuses on an 18-year-old woman who is currently dating. That wouldn’t be odd, except that she is dating her biological father. Apparently, […]

Jews, outnumbered by Muslims, suffer under mob rule

In the wake of the terrorist attack on a kosher market in Paris, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked French Jews to come home. I don’t particularly like that advice. I think it would be a tragedy if centuries of Jewish French culture had to die out because Jews were chased out by Islamist thugs. […]

Early Presidential Prospects

With 2015 just getting under way, the buzz of political activity makes it seem almost as if we are already in the midst of the 2016 presidential campaign. Among the Democrats, Hillary Clinton is honing her message to appeal to the mindset of the left wing of her party, whose support she will need in […]

Barack Obama Floated A Blockbuster Policy Change In His State Of The Union That Almost Everyone Missed

If you missed the State of the Union, consider yourself lucky. If we had people yelling “You Lie!” after every lie, this speech would be 5 hours long. #SOTU — John Hawkins (@johnhawkinsrwn) January 21, 2015 The whole speech was intentionally deceptive statistics, mixed with transparently dishonest appeals to bipartisanship and outright lies. However, there […]

Counter Cultured Chats with Chris Cheng at SHOT Show

Las Vegas, Nevada — The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF)’s 37th annual SHOT Show convention is currently underway. This is the largest gathering of outdoor industry professionals, buyers, sellers, and enthusiasts in the United States. NRA News commentator and Top Shot winner Chris Cheng was gracious enough to sit down with Counter Cultured for an […]

Interview With a Moonbat Mom

Obama’s external attack on Christianity through ObamaCare and by suppressing it in the military will not succeed. The campaign to destroy Christianity by corrupting it from within stands a better chance. Toward this objective, the Religion News Service (run by the University of Missouri School of Journalism) publishes a blog entitled Faithfully LGBT, where author […]

Islamic Genocide

Like Lebanon in the 1980s, Nigeria is in the process of becoming a Muslim nation. This is never a pretty transition to watch: While Western newspapers were debating whether or not to reprint the Mohammed cartoons, in Nigeria as many as 2,000 people were massacred by the Islamic State in Nigeria, also known as Boko […]

‘I Don’t Know Why You’re Out for Blood… I’m Not Paying’: Mothers’ Facebook Battle After Boy is Handed a $25 Invoice For Missing Classmate’s Birthday Party

People can do some incredibly petty things, but what one mother did when a little boy missed her son’s birthday party is beyond the pale. Julie Lawrence decided to send the parents a $25 invoice, and is even threatening to take them to small claims court. Tanya Walsh and her partner Derek Nash were appalled […]
