And I am not referring to the animals, as much as I have been enthralled by them during safaris […]
“It is time to give America a raise,” President Barack Obama proclaimed in support of his proposal to raise the federal minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $10.10 by 2016.

Just try to envision the scene: A newly elected Republican mayor of a large American city takes steps to close down some of the best schools serving an almost exclusively minority population.

There is a reason militant atheists always seem so unpleasant when they come on TV to hector us. If they were nice people, they wouldn’t devote their energy to eradicating all traces of Christianity: AnnMarie Devaney agreed to remove a 5-foot cross she put up on the side of a road in Lake Elsinore [California] […]
The parasitical drones comprising Big Government’s bureaucracy are generally regarded as subnormal in terms of intelligence, but they can be quite clever when it comes to separating productive citizens from their hard-earned money.
