The three richest per-capita counties in America surround Washington, DC. They are Montgomery County, Maryland and Fairfax and Loudoun Counties in Virginia. Who lives there? Corporate titans? Hedge-fund managers from Wall Street? Movie stars? Wealthy TV talk-show hosts? No, they are the home of hundreds of thousands of highly-paid bureaucrats working for the federal government. Their individual pay does not give them each | Read More »
Good for the so-called conservative majority on the United States Supreme Court for standing up “for the children” of America by ruling that tax credits that help to pay for kids to attend religious schools are allowed under Constitutional law. This is a major educational ruling. Justice Anthony Kennedy, the Reagan appointee and a thoroughly unreliable conservative, stood with reliable conservatives Roberts, Thomas, Alito | Read More »
An analysis of a study was posted on the American Psychological Association website in October 2010 called The Real ‘Mommy Brain’: Mothers Grew Bigger Brains Within Months of Giving Birth. The study noted measurable increases in brain size in women after they bore their children. This contradicts the feminist dogma that childless feminists are smart and that women who have children are ignoramuses. In | Read More »
Let’s shut down the federal government and refuse to open it up until the budget deficit comes down to 3% of GDP, which is the maximum recommended to sustain growth. Today the deficit is roughly 11% of GDP. The Republican House has the power to shut down the government by refusing to pass bills to sustain the current debt. Democrats are using their | Read More »
Will Barack Obama surprise us and announce that he will not run for re-election in 2012? Possibly… Consider Obama’s ascent to the White House. Many politicians seek the presidency in one cycle, lose, and then try again and even win it in the next cycle (Reagan), or the next (Nixon, Bush 41). Obama probably thought that he was gong to “get his | Read More »

The Media Left were already planning to ignore Republican Peter King’s congressional hearing about radical Islam when the Japan earthquake knocked the hearing out of the news. You can read the entire 109-page PDF hearing transcript here Below are some excerpts from the hearing with my comment after each: *Congressman King: Our next witness is Melvin Bledsoe, the father of Carlos Leon Bledsoe — | Read More »
If you ask any rational person if they would rather have debt or no debt, they would say no debt. Yet today America’s debt is growing and growing under Obama and the Democrats as it has been for decades, and it can only be seen as an individual might see his own debt rising. Because our national debt will be paid by each one | Read More »
President Obama’s speech about Libya was too long, about 3,400 words or the equivalent of five op-ed columns from a daily newspaper. It was too full of the usual platitudes and many contradictions. Here are excerpts with my comment after each: Obama: I want to begin by paying tribute to our men and women in uniform who, once again, have acted with courage, professionalism | Read More »
Sarah Palin certainly never has been a favorite of Democrats, or even of John McCain’s ‘moderate’ Republican party. She is too workaday, too much of a Mom, too populist, not enough of a professional politician, too controversial, too much of an Alaska phenomenon – a place that many Republicans wouldn’t visit anyway since it is cold and scary and full of wild animals. They prefer | Read More »
Here is the opening paragraph from a recent AP story called ‘Report says too many whites, men leading military‘: ‘The U.S. military is too white and too male at the top and needs to change recruiting and promotion policies and lift its ban on women in combat, an independent report for Congress said Monday. Seventy-seven percent of senior officers in the active-duty military are | Read More »

Meanwhile Pinal County, Arizona sheriff Paul Babeu, an outspoken critic of tough illegal immigration laws, has revealed that he was molested as a young child in Massachusetts by a | Read More »
Did you ever wonder why conservative Americans are hated in places as diverse as atheist Europe and religiously fundamentalist Islamic Pakistan? It is quite simple: We conservatives oppose ideology, and the people who hate us are ideologues. That is why Pakistan is poor and backward, and why Europe has fallen into the abyss of war and destruction repeatedly – because they are unstable | Read More »
There is hysteria over the Japan nuclear problems. It will fade. The crisis is not nearly as bad as the enviro-friendly world media are portraying it. There is definitely some leaking radiation and some people may be affected. But ultimately once the accident is cleaned up, we need to get back to the serious issue of how to meet our growing world electricity demand. | Read More »
Nations Draw Up Plans to Create Libyan No-Fly Zone said the headline on foxnews.com the same day that it also reported that Obama Bowing to UN While Qaddafi Rolls to Victory. So it sounds a little late for a no-fly zone if Qaddafi is rolling to victory… But no mind. This is the upside-down world of Barack Obama where an American president is making it | Read More »
There was a recent story in the media that France is more anti-capitalist than even communist China. A survey by pollster IFOP published in the French newspaper La Croix said that 33% of French people said that their country should abandon capitalism, the highest ratio in 10 countries surveyed. Only thing is that France has never even been a capitalist nation. So what | Read More »
It is just amazing how one guy with a videocamera like James O’Keefe can upend major liberal institutions like National Public Radio and the ACORN community organizer group. More is coming. Much more. O’Keefe is a political genius. After decades in which liberals thought they had all the gleaming media power, O’Keefe’s low-tech but brilliant “stings” are the latest in the conservative reaction to | Read More »
A Republican can win the 2012 presidential election easily. Yet we keep hearing here and there that the Republican presidential field is “weak”. But it is Obama himself who is truly weak. Donald Trump can easily beat Obama if he can get the nomination. He could debate Obama off the stage. We have Rudy Giuliani who “saved” liberal New York City from itself. He | Read More »
As Republican congressman Peter King has opened hearings on radical Islam in America, some Islamists, the Media Left and the Democrats have gone overboard to impugn King. Meanwhile tens of millions of Americans support King. They want answers. King is the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee. The official title of the hearings is The Extent of Radicalization in the American Muslim Community | Read More »
There are so many examples of leftist disruption, intimidation and violence in America today that they are hard to catalogue. Yet for almost two years now the media have been scrutinizing the Tea Parties up and down for one shred of improper behavior. They even have made things up. Remember the fake story about black congressman Emmanuel Cleaver allegedly being spit on and allegedly being | Read More »
