Once again, Steve Wynn calls out Obama, along with Occupy Wall Street
By: tbrickert (Diary) | October 20th at 06:42 AM |
It seems to becoming a conference call tradition. Steve Wynn, CEO of Wynn resorts, called out President Obama in his last conference call. Last night he did it again, and he also had words regarding the Occupy Wall Street protesters. From the conference call last night: It’s very interesting about the folks who are occupying Wall Street. That group is quite diverse. There are people | Read More »
The Best Debate
By: tbrickert (Diary) | October 12th at 09:45 AM |
Last night’s debate in New Hampshire was perhaps the best debate yet, unfortunately it was on the less watched Bloomberg channel. Every candidate had their moment in this debate, but in the end it was Mitt Romney who was in command of the evening. Now that Herman Cain is considered a top-tier candidate he is receiving the scrutiny that comes with the territory. His 9-9-9 plan | Read More »

The Occupy Wall Street Collective
By: tbrickert (Diary) | October 9th at 10:47 AM |
It’s Sunday again and it is time for the Sunday funny. Although, this really is not that funny. The Occupy Wall Street Collective, yes they actually call themselves a collective. It makes me wonder if they are related to the Borg collective, the main antagonist in the recent Star Trek series, but I digress. While the Collective disavow these demands and claim they do not have any | Read More »
Mitt Romney at the Citadel
By: tbrickert (Diary) | October 8th at 10:07 AM |
Yesterday, while Herman Cain, Rick Perry, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich addressed the Values Voter Summit, Mitt Romney introduced his foreign policy agenda at the Citadel. While Herman Cain “provoked church like Yeah! from the crowd” and Newt Gingrich addressed an emptying room, as both conducted book signings, Mitt Romney addressed our country’s future defenders: It’s a great honor to be in South Carolina, where | Read More »
Democrats Change The Rules
By: tbrickert (Diary) | October 7th at 11:28 AM |
The Senate Democrats have decided to change the way things are done in the Senate. from Politico: By a 51-48 vote, the Senate voted along party lines to change the precedent and limit how amendments can be considered once a filibuster is defeated. Under normal procedure, the Senate has 30 hours of debate after 60 senators agree to end a filibuster. Amendments can be considered | Read More »
Understanding the Tea Party
By: tbrickert (Diary) | September 30th at 08:42 AM |
There is an excellent piece by Nolan Finley in the Detroit News describing what the Tea Party movement is about and how it has been vilified by the Democrats. I have anger at the part of the movement that continues to fight battles they have already won, who want to win the whole war in one battle. The United States did not get into this mess overnight and it is | Read More »
Liberal Racism
By: tbrickert (Diary) | September 24th at 09:16 AM |
I can’t help it. I’m laughing and I probably should not be, but I can’t help it. I suppose it was bound to happen. The President has been out barnstorming for his jobs bill. A bill still not submitted to the House and a bill Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid won’t let come to the Senate floor for at least a few weeks. A bill, nonetheless, President | Read More »
The Big Lie
By: tbrickert (Diary) | September 23rd at 09:06 AM |
If you are a Rick Perry supporter last night’s debate had to be painful to watch. End of story. I’m not going to mention the many cringe moments, by the Governor. Really. I won’t. I want to, but I won’t Why? You’re asking, I hear you. Because I’m going to point out one moment. Michele Bachmann has been hitting Governor Perry for his executive order mandating a HPV | Read More »
Won’t Get Fooled Again
By: tbrickert (Diary) | September 9th at 07:32 PM |
It would appear the Republicans have learned from their dealings with President Obama over the debt ceiling. During that time the Administration never put their proposals in writing for people to see. Friday, the Republican leaders sent the president a letter requesting his proposals in legislative form, providing the details of the plan so they can add their ideas and move quickly in passing a jobs plan.

He Forgot The Peas
By: tbrickert (Diary) | September 9th at 09:33 AM |
The President gave a speech last night. More words and platitudes wrapped up in a tidy pleasing package. Yea, the man can give a speech. He has a gift you might say. As a matter of fact, the president did. If we look beyond the soaring rhetoric what do we see? A whole bunch of desserts and no vegetables. After all, it was not so long | Read More »
