I love Billy Joel’s music. So when I heard that Eduardo Saverin, co-founder of Facebook, renounced his US citizenship in order to get around paying taxes on his income from Facebook’s IPO I immediately thought of Billy Joel’s song “I’m Moving Out”. To see the entire song’s lyrics, go here, but I want to show you one stanza to drive a point home: You should | Read More »
Much has been made online and within the MSM about the conservative vs liberal (and moderate) wings/candidates of the Republican party during this Presidential GOP primary election. On one side – the liberal or Massachusetts Moderate – we have Mitt Romney. On the other side, we have the rest trying to pit themselves as the poster child for conservatism (and the word “conservative” seems to | Read More »
Something has been eating at me recently so much that I started to it get off my chest on Twitter the other night and that hopefully I’ll finish here – Republicans and conservatives destroying our candidates while completely ignoring Mitt Romney. I also felt compelled to words from the justinhart front page selection where he wrote: Romney has held consistent conservative values for years now. | Read More »
While reading Politico the yesterday, I was surprised to find an article about a schism that has taken place within the Coffee Party USA camp founded by Annabel Park. And here I thought the Astroturf USA’s cup had run dry; guess I was wrong. You can view the schism article here. It is today’s article about yesterday’s article that just made me shake my head | Read More »
Despite taking historic losses in the last midterm elections and being the focus of countless protests leading up to the midterms, the liberals still don’t understand what the Tea Parties are. I enter into evidence the possibility of a “Tequila Party“. It would seem Latino leaders are not happy with the Democrats not doing enough to push through Dream Act III and are discussing about | Read More »
2000 – Bush v Gore. After numerous recounts, Supreme Court finally steps in to end the madness. 1980 – Ted Kennedy challenges Jimmy Carter for Democratic nomination, but Kennedy can’t explain why he wants to run for President. 1970 – Indiana Senate race between Richard Roudebush (R) and R. Vance Hartke (D). Hartke seated by US Surpreme Court, recount took 2 years. 1960 – JFK | Read More »
This morning it was announced that Juan Williams had been fired from NPR for his comments the previous night on the O’Reilly Factor regarding Muslims. Punishment was swift from the left because Williams had spoken out against their ideals of multiculturalism and political correctness. I don’t always agree with Juan Williams, but he’s a straight shooter and a wonderful commentator. All day, news channels have | Read More »
In an interview on CNN, soon to be retired (because he lost his primary re-election bid) Rep. Bob Inglis (R-SC) showed that he still doesn’t get it regarding the Tea Parties: “I think this would be a tough time for Ronald Reagan and Jack Kemp,” Inglis added. “They were optimists that believe in America. Right now, unfortunately, conservatism is being presented with a voice of | Read More »
Universities are supposed to be areas where there is open debate and free speech is prized…unless you deviate from the leftist ideology. From the CarmiTimes.com: The University of Illinois has fired an adjunct professor who taught courses on Catholicism after a student accused the instructor of engaging in hate speech by saying he agrees with the church’s teaching that homosexual sex is immoral. The professor, | Read More »
My hangover from celebrating Scott Brown’s victory hasn’t even worn off yet, and here we have another headache to deal with. The Illinois Republican Party Chairman Pat Brady has, in essence, called every Tea Partier/9-12er/conservative in Illinois a “fringe element”. He does actually call us out by name, but the inference is there. As I have stated before in prior posts, I have traveled across | Read More »
