More Tea in 2012!

You’re ticked off by the budget and deficit deal. The old-guard Republicans caved again and took a few Tea Party people with them. So now what are you going to do? Sulk? Whine? Bitch and moan? Not me. There’s one thing about liberals that I admire. They never quit. When

Biden Says You are a ‘Terrorist’

Joe Biden called Tea Party members “terrorists.” That’s right. People who believe in the Constitution, the right to vote, curtailing spending money that we don’t have, and stopping the creation of money out of thin air are terrorists. The terrorists I know blow up polling stations, kill government officials they

Radicals are Running the Government

All this talk about blaming conservatives for the Norwegian madness has made me go retro – back to the glory days of the 1960s. On the cover of the book Revolution for the Hell of It (1968), the author is shown with a rifle in his hand leaping for joy.

Anders Behring Breivik: Just another Leftwing Radical

People around the world were horrified when they heard about the Norwegian murders at the hand of Anders Behring Breivik. How could anyone do such a horrible thing to innocent people? Breivik is arguing that he did it for the good of Norway and the broader European nations. Of course,

Congress: Smaller, Weaker, Slower

The documentary “Bigger, Stronger, Faster*” (2008), directed by Christopher Bell, is a fascinating study of steroid use among today’s success-demanding athletes, from high school football players to some of our nation’s top professional baseball players and nearly every sport in between. The record-breaking feats of Barry Bonds and Mark McGuire

The Bogus GOP State of the Nation Survey

The National Republican Congressional Committee, at the behest of House Speaker John Boehner, has sent out a “State of the Nation Survey.” It’s really a way to raise money for the GOP. I doubt that Boehner wrote the letter that came with the survey or that he or anyone in

Why We Need Rich People

The rich often get a bum rap. Liberals are incensed when it is suggested that “the rich” get any type of tax reduction even though the top 50% of wage earners pay 96% of all income taxes. Since they spend more money, the rich also pay a disproportionate amount in

The Futility of Third-Party Candidates for President

Trying to get elected as a third party candidate in American politics is extremely difficult if not impossible since the electing process is not by majority vote. Ballot access is also an obstacle since third parties have to meet additional criteria not required of Republicans and Democrats. Reform Party candidate

Taxation is Theft

What is the first principle of economics? Some economists will claim that it’s supply and demand, while others insist that it’s scarcity or the division of labor. The first principle of economics is “thou shalt not steal.” The word economics is derived from two Greek words: oikos, meaning “house,” and

Butchering the Pledge of Allegiance

Atheist Michael Newdow has been pestering the courts to rule that the phrase “under God” found in the Pledge of Allegiance and “In God We Trust,” imprinted and stamped on our currency, are unconstitutional. In 2010, even the usually liberal San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Newdow’s

Auto Insurance is not the Same as Health Insurance

In an interview with George Stephanopoulos, President Obama said, “right now everybody in America, just about, has to get auto insurance. Nobody considers that a tax increase.” On CNN’s American Morning show, anchor John Roberts repeated the auto insurance analogy in his interview with former House Majority Leader Dick Armey,

Political Protests and Liberal Hypocrisy

The people of Egypt are protesting in the streets of Cairo, and liberals are ecstatic. They are hoping the Mubarak regime will collapse and the people of Egypt will find their political voice. “The whole world is watching” their anti-government protests. There is no place to hide from the watching

The Scourge of Unbridled Islamic Democracy

The Middle East will never be made right by force. Competing Islamic groups often gain the trust of the United States only to turn on their benefactors once their sworn Islamic enemies are vanquished with the help of the US military. It happened when our embassy in Iraq was overrun
