The Rich, Taxes, and the Sin of Envy
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 sales, property, entertainment, and excise taxes. Without

Joseph and Mary were Neither Homeless Nor Refugees
The Christmas story has been turned into a political message about homelessness. Recently, liberals have claimed that when Mary and Joseph could not find a room in Bethlehem – you guessed it – it’s just like today’s refugee problem. Never let a contrived Bible story go to waste. The problem

Donald Trump Want’s Americans to Pay a 35% Tax on New Cars

Will GOP Cave to Democrat Demands for New Taxes and Spending?

Obama Wants to Hobble America Before Leaving Office
It’s a hard thing to say about anybody, but I do believe that President Obama has it in for America. He’s not “in over his head” as many conservatives claim. He knows exactly what he’s doing. And because there is no push back from the Republicans, he’s retrofitting America with

Mitch McConnell Has Adopted Obama’s “Yes We Can” Slogan
“To incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), it is more important for Republicans to be the party of yes than go all-out to defund President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty.” Mitch McConnell is beginning to sound more like Obama every day. One of Obama’s campaign slogans was “yes we can.”

Obama Just Refused to Lower Your Taxes

Leftist Says Election Was ‘Victory for the Left’ about Income Equality
Liberals make my job easier. There isn’t a day that goes by that I can’t find something to write about. The latest is from William Saletan who writes for Slate.com. He’s claiming the following: “Republicans won big in the 2014 elections. They captured the Senate and gained seats in the

The Good, Bad, and Ugly of Immigration
Tea Party advocates aren’t anti-immigrant or anti-immigration. The United States was built on immigration.
