The Fear of Change
There was a youtube video that came out a couple of weeks ago. It featured two cartoon characters that look as if they are supposed to be bears of some sort. One of the bears is saying how he would like to buy an iPhone. Perhaps you have seen it? It has gone incredibly viral [...]
Personal Responsibility – Make Your Own Job
Internet Entrepreneurs Are Lay-Off Proof Patriots Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said yesterday that unemployment compensation was a great form of economic and job stimulus.

Let’s get some Perspective People
The recent tragedy on the Transocean Rig Deepwater Horizon has only further soured me on the state of the American Media and our current political landscape. It has been an unfortunate display of political point scoring. To be fair and in the interest of full disclosure, I work for a direct competitor of Transocean in [...]
Federal Government to the Rescue of Illegals in AZ
It is no secret that US border states have been decimated by the illegal immigrant problem. After decades of inaction by administration after administration, Arizona took matters into its own hands. This week they passed a law in their state government allowing cops in Arizona to treat illegals like, well, illegals. This bill makes it a crime to be [...]

Citizen Legislators – At Least That Was Once the Grand Plan
You know, those men we hold in high self-esteem believes that the United States of America ought to have citizen legislators. That makes a lot of sense and they believed this for a reason.

Income Tax: Neither Moral Nor Practical
Nothing is so certain as death and taxes, or so the well-worn saying goes. But I disagree. While death is most definitely certain, taxes are a matter of public policy and are just part of the status quo. We were all born into a world where people pay tax. No one fundamentally challenges the system [...]
Health Reform Is Law – Good Or Bad?
There is no question that the passing of legislation to provide additional health insurance availability to millions of Americans has some good provisions and some questionable ones. Although we can’t discuss all the provisions, we can look at several main provisions. Probably the provision favored most by both sides is the requirement that insurance companies [...]
It’s Not My Fault and the Blame Game
America is in a very serious situation these days. We are in debt, many of our jobs are outsourced, and we have leaders who have no idea how to remedy the situation. Foreign countries reject any warning from our government, therefore making our foreign policy watered down. I would say that America is dealing with [...]
Why New York Should Give Kirsten Gillibrand the Boot

Very Simple, President Barack Obama is a Liar
It’s no surprise that politicians are liars. Barack Obama is no exception. In fact, he is a liar of liars. Time and time again Obama looks America in the eye and spouts off lies. He lies about global warming, health care, lobbyists, and a host of other issues. The only reason someone would have to [...]

So, What’s the Plan?
My fellow Americans, welcome to a new age in security. An age where the agencies in charge of national security can testify before congress that within 3 to 6 months there will be an attack or attempted attack on US soil, and the threat level remains the same. A place where people who attempt to [...]
Progressives Fight Back Against “Dangerous” Tea Party Movement
Right Wing Hardliners Protesting High Taxes and Socialist Policies The Tea Party is over! At least that’s what progressives are saying on their latest website. Their mission, as stated on their website, is to prevent the tea party’s dangerous ideas from gaining legislative traction. That strikes me as odd, since the tea party folks tend [...]
