Having come across an article that really stands out in all the din of messaging we see these days, I feel compelled to share it with you for what it’s worth. Written by Yates Walker, a conservative activist and writer who served honorably as a paratrooper and a medic in the U.S. Army’s 82nd Airborne Division before getting involved in politics, A Tea Party Battle | Read More »
On the eve of Memorial Day weekend, news came to us that two female Army Reserve officers have sued the U.S.Department of Defense and the Army in a bid to reverse military policies banning women from serving in combat roles. The lawsuit filed on behalf of Command Sgt. Maj. Jane Baldwin and Col. Ellen Haring accuses the government of violating the constitutional rights of servicewomen | Read More »
In a brief respite from the joys of the circular firing squad known as conservative politics, today’s column focuses on the left… the far left… the ‘progressive left‘, a.k.a. the Democratic Party. The Florida Progressive Coalition Blog put out a piece yesterday titled The Constitution Is NOT the Bible. Typically, I avoid the drivel coming from the far left for selfish reasons, namely to keep | Read More »
It is often said that history repeats itself… This column is about the dastardly Alan Grayson, but before we step into the abyss of trying to comprehend what this man represents, we must first look to the past. One of the greatest misconceptions today is that the Progressive Left is, well, progressive – indicating forward looking change or improvement. In reality, the progressive movement has | Read More »
There has been a lot of talk in the media that the anti-capitalists that currently ‘occupy‘ Wall St. are much like the tea party… a natural uprising of the people.

Even Obama acknowledges that they’re | Read More »
As a way to solve the national debt crisis, North Carolina Democratic Gov.

OK, there can be no more denying that a strategy is being played out here… with Rev. Jesse Jackson’s comments yesterday, it’s become real obvious that an orchestrated effort is underway. “The Tea Party is not new,” Jackson said at a luncheon honoring civil rights pioneers on Thursday. “It’s just a new name for an old game.” This blatant accusation of racism follows within a | Read More »
As a precursor, I readily admit that my knowledge of the Federal Reserve and the financial system in this country is very limited. In fact, you could fill a thimble with this knowledge and still have room to spare. Being a tea party activist, I spend many a sleepless night worrying about the direction we are heading as a nation and about the very real | Read More »
President Barack Obama addressed the nation last night and probably did more to send an already exasperated public over the edge than he could ever have hoped to do to bring this country closer to a solution on the debt ceiling crisis. Unfortunately, his message was to be expected, blame the Republicans and distort his position of wanting to raise taxes to pay for the | Read More »
In a recent interview with Truthout, a Progressive Left organization that bills itself as an ‘independent’ source for news and commentary, self avowed communist and 9/11 truther Van Jones made the following remarks about the tea party; “The real fight is not between conservatives and liberal, or even between Wall Street and Main Street. The real fight is between ‘cheap patriots,’ who are trying | Read More »
