The High Cost of Obama’s America

Wendy's

It didn’t take Carnak the Magnificent to see this one coming.  The euphemistically titled Affordable Care Act … isn’t.  Affordable, that is.  Turns out that hundreds of employees at Wendy’s are having their hours cut because of the new health care law, better known as ObamaCare.  And that’s just in and around one mid-size city,…

Another Reason Liberals Make Me Laugh

Hypocrsity

Neither side has cornered the market on hypocrisy.  The conservative kind embarrasses me, because that’s my team and I can’t defend it. The liberal variety, on the other hand, makes me laugh — at them, not with them. Remember the suburban New York newspaper, the Journal News – the paper that printed the names and…

Al Gore Hates Oil But Loves Oil Money

Al Gore Current TV

I used to think Al Gore was full of it when he went on and on about global warming.  Then he co-founded Current TV and I changed my mind.  There’s enough hot air coming out of the mouths of their left wing commentators to raise the temperature of the entire earth by a few degrees…

Memo to GOP: Make Obama Own the Mess He’s Created

Obama Economy

Anybody who’s thought about it for two seconds knows we don’t have a taxing problem – we have a spending problem. We borrow about 42 cents on every dollar we spend, and under President Obama we have been spending more than $1 trillion dollars a year we don’t have.  That’s where the borrowing comes in….

This Just In: John Wayne Is Dead

John Wayne

Taking on Guns Will Be the Easy Part

Guns

We’ve already started hearing the arguments about how we need to control guns, at least certain kinds of guns.  We hear these same arguments every time something horrific, like the terrible tragedy in Connecticut, shatters our otherwise normal routine. This time, I suspect, we’ll stop talking and actually do something.  Twenty dead first graders has…

When Obama’s Words Mean Nothing

Union Rally

In January 2011, President Obama spoke at a memorial service in Tucson, Arizona to honor the victims of a massacre that left 6 people dead, including a federal judge and a 9 year-old girl and left 13 others wounded, including Congresswoman Gabby Giffords who suffered a grievous gunshot wound to the head. Liberals, including the…

Tell Them to Leave Me Alone, Jesus

Heaven

I was on the O’Reilly Factor this week and Bill asked me what I thought about the media’s lack of interest in what he thinks is a War on Christmas.  I started out by saying even though I don’t celebrate Christmas, I don’t have a problem with people who say Merry Christmas, nor do I…
