You’ve probably heard “Romnesia” so much today that you’re no doubt sick of this term. Obama didn’t coin it, but borrows a term from the far-left. From Mother Jones: A Case of Romnesia Mitt Romney’s long history of misremembering his past. —By David Corn | Wed Jun. 20, 2012 3:00 AM PDT If David Corn rings a bell, it may be because he’s often on | Read More »
[This is Part II to "Why do we still make the penny?"] The premise of my last post is that we should POSSIBLY follow Canada and several other countries in eliminating the penny. With QE3 and the devaluation of the currency, expect price increases in gold, silver, copper, zinc, and the rest. Coins will cost far more than their value to make. There is a | Read More »
Why do we still lose money to make the penny? Why isn’t there a resolution to end the penny right now? With the Fed’s “quantitative easing” policy of printing billions of dollars out of thin air every month, the penny is worthless. We’re losing money to coin it, so why are we still doing it? The arguments against the penny have been made for years. | Read More »

Why does Obama have ANY of the youth vote? Does no one remember when Michelle Obama told graduates in 2009 that “you must give something back”? Before it goes into the Obama memory hole, I’d like to revisit the incredibly naive advice of “give something back” to an audience awash in student loan debt and unable to find jobs. USA Today, on May 16, 2009, | Read More »
Alan Simpson (of Simpson-Bowles) is quite the quotable fellow. “Buckle up your guts”?! FYI, I just added this detailed etymological entry on my website. If any one of you has a favorite “Simpsonism” that needs to be deciphered, please send it along. “Buckle up your guts” Alan K. Simpson, a Wyoming U.S. senator from 1979-1997, co-chaired President Obama’s National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform | Read More »
No one else notices these things, I guess, but here goes. OBAMA TO BARNARD GARDUATES — “PERSERVERE! PERSERVERE!” There is video at this site (it’s at the 20-minute mark) and here’s the text: My last piece of advice — this is simple, but perhaps most important: Persevere. Persevere. Nothing worthwhile is easy. No one of achievement has avoided failure — sometimes catastrophic failures. But they | Read More »
Obama Oozes ‘Jon Stewart’s Brilliant’ and ‘Amazing,’ More Credible Than ‘Conventional’ News –By: Tim Graham | April 25, 2012 | 14:33 – NewsBusters.org What late night comedy bias, you say?

When Michele Bachmann goes on Jimmy Fallon’s show, she’s greeted with the | Read More »
“The phrase ‘working mother’ is redundant.” That’s a great line, and it comes from actress Donna Reed (It’s a Wonderful Life) at least as early as 1963. Erma Bombeck, Joan Lunden and many others have used the line. Democratic operative Hilary Rosen has used quite the opposite. You can put this one on bumper stickers if you like. Here’s the entry on the saying that | Read More »
