Call and tell your representative they work for YOU, tell them YOU want them to vote NO and YOU will actively organize to ensure they do not get re-elected if they do not represent YOUR wishes. This is YOUR country, take it back, take back YOUR government.

And there will be bread lines…

Does it not seem that the Obama administration is doing everything it can to ensure that American is cast into a position of being a ‘third world country’?
It’s a frightening thought.   How much damage will this guy do before it stops?  How many of his policies will be irreversible?   So much of what he has [...]

The Value of Beauty…The Beauty of Value

Probably most of you have seen (or at least heard) of Susan Boyle’s first audition on Britain’s Got Talent. It reminded me so much of the Paul Potts audition a couple of years back on the same program. Because they are both talent people, you say? Well, yes. But that’s not why.

On Tea Parties & Tyranny

Newt Gingrich has some interesting and depressing numbers here.
An ever-lasting legacy
Your obligation on the INTEREST (not principal) of the Obama budget deficit:
If you’re 50 years old: $81,000If you’re 40: $132,000If you’re 20: $114,000
Why so many people remain okay with this outrage is mystifying.

The lower house of parliament approved legislation Wednesday allowing scientists to create animal-human embryos for medical research, in the biggest shake-up of embryology laws in two decades.

Car Loans, Main Street, Sweet Pork

Where are we headed?  Here’s a clue for ya from MotorTrend:
Are you the type who regularly checks your credit score and stays on top of every little change at the major credit bureaus? If you’re like many Americans, the answer to this is probably no, but you might want to start being a little more [...]

AIG: Bailout $ not enough for them to buy a clue

I don’t know how many of you saw the nice comment I got from AIG BlogResponse to my last post about AIG.  I can’t confirm it was from AIG, but an email I sent to the email address, did not bounce back and it sounded like something a PR department would say….
