Think Progress: The south deserved to be destroyed by tornados
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | April 29th at 11:41 AM |
The south is still realizing the full extent of the damage caused by this week’s storms. Nearly 300 people are dead. The country is rallying in support of the devatated areas, and President Obama (who must have learned something from ignoring Nashville’s flood last year) is set break character to visit the very red state today. Anyone with a soul feels pain for those affected. Thousands | Read More »
Obama gets serious… by punting policy to celebs
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | April 28th at 04:30 PM |
President Obama enjoys presenting himself as a shining example of maturity, wisdom, and levelheaded leadership. Indeed, at yesterday’s birth certificate press conference, he told the pesky “carnival barkers” that it was time to “get serious.” Then, he boarded a plane to Chicago to film Oprah. To talk some more about getting serious, I imagine. He later put the birth certificate issue to rest once and | Read More »
Powershift: The Birth of Environmental Justice
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | April 20th at 05:25 PM |
The Powershift conference came to DC last weekend. Thousands of students were bussed in to discuss the perils of our climate situation – because apparently, Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi are “counting on them” to save the world… by taking off their pants and leaving earth to colonize other planets? It’s funny at first, until you realize that there were 10,000 American youth listening to | Read More »
VIDEO: Barack Obama’s EPA Doesn’t Care About Jobs
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | April 18th at 12:30 PM |
The EPA has admitted that they don’t even consider jobs when they do their economic analysis. No really. They don’t even think about the potential impact on unemployment. This is appalling, coming from an administration that has said over and over and over again that jobs are the top priority. To recap: White House Briefing, 1/19/2010 “The top priority is to continue to work hard | Read More »

Via Twitter: You can click here to watch the entire 5:32 minute video, if you think you can make it through. Planned Parenthood is not in the business of helping women, and has a knack of constantly reminding us. We can rehash exposé after exposé, and discuss the list of horrors and deception that seems to grow with every investigation. Most of us have seen | Read More »
Flashback Video: Instead of budgeting, Congress is…
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | April 8th at 12:03 PM |
Steny Hoyer once said that the most basic responsibility of governing was to enact a budget. Which is why in the past two years, when Democrats could have done anything they wanted to (and in many cases did), they could not pass one? Democrats have done a good job pretending that the shut down is all because the Republicans won’t play around and are tossing out | Read More »
The Left’s “Tea Party Moment”?
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | February 26th at 12:28 AM |
The unions have long been unparalleled in their ability to organize and get the vote out during election time. The Tea Party has provided them with a new challenge, and they’re rising to the occasion as best they know how: Astroturfing. They believe, according to Alexander Bolton in The Hill, that their “Tea Party” moment has come. The first question that should be asked is | Read More »

Today, union thugs descended on the FreedomWorks office. It was the middle of the day, and there was some excitement outside as all the buses pulled up and people started to fill the courtyard. We decided to go out and show our support for freedom. Intern Steve was quickly suited up. We wandered around talking to people, and saw the buses lined up on the | Read More »
UPDATED: EPA Issues First Waiver For New Greenhouse Gas Regulations.
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | February 3rd at 02:00 PM |
Guess who it went to? That’s right. Jeffrey Immelt. Let’s do a quick recap. As National Review points out, back in 2009, Obama awarded GE $24.9 million in stimulus funds, and “roughly $20 billion more slated for health care record modernization of the kind that GE specializes in — ‘with a direct request to do so from GE’s CEO Jeffrey Immelt.’” Then last month, the President | Read More »
Illinois: Thank Goodness For Michigan… Or We’d Be Last In Everything
By: Tabitha Hale (Diary) | January 12th at 01:10 PM |
Illinois Democrats (I repeat myself) have still not figured out that raising income taxes when no one has money will continue to pummel their already struggling economy. In the wee hours of the morning, the state legislature managed to force through a 67% tax increase with a vote of 30-29. Several Democrats joined a the Republicans in voting against the bill. Illinois is currently ranked | Read More »
