“It’s one of the great Bernie Madoff gimmicks that I’ve ever seen, that anybody’s ever seen.” said Senator John McCain on ABC’s “Good Morning America”. He was referring to the way Democrats were able to pass the Healthcare Bill. McCain continued, “This was behind closed doors. The Republicans were never brought in to the negotiations and this is what you get — a split country — where the American …

…t to be in the United States, whether they be Hispanic, Eastern European or Asian. I am the grandchild of immigrants. My grandparents came through Ellis Island at the turn of the last century. They followed the law and became American in the proper manner. They did not hold onto the Old Country. In fact, my parents barely spoke any Italian at all. They were told to become American. They were no longer Italian. Arizona is dealing with a problem th…

…ential bankruptcies. As stated in my prior article, the unions would suffer the most if the Big 3 were forced to file for Chapter 11 protection. And, right now, the unions are really scared. The UAW is the main the reason why American automakers have a higher per vehicle cost than other car makers. In fact, did you know that laid off autoworkers get 95% of their salary as part of the union contract? How can we compete with garbage like this as pa…

Written by Jim Babka, DownsizeDC How the New Indefinite Detention Provisions can be used on Americans Congress just passed, and the President just signed, a bill that gives legal authority to the President to kidnap and perpetually imprison persons, including American citizens, without the benefit of due process. Members of Congress, in the days leading up to the vote, tried to assure their constituents that they have nothing to fear — that the …

…d reflection of our society that someone such as Chaz is getting national acceptance. However, I find it a striking omission that JR is not getting the strokes that he should be getting for his heroism. It reflects the modern American phenomenon of totally misplaced affection, gratitude and worship. In both of these circumstances, the use of the word hero is trivialized. A deeper problem is that ides of myth, legend and story hold a society’s cul…

Republicanism is not lost but it is certainly a candidate for a “Progressive Lite” label….or what as “Congress is Useless” all about? http://www.hollywoodrepublican.net/2011/11/congress-is-useless/ And all that is supported in academia today is under the myth of “academic freedom”.

On January 20th, 2009, the 44th President of The United States was sworn into office on the lawn of the Capital building in Washington D.C. It was a proud day for most Americans, a day when the strongest democracy in the world elected its first African American president into office. For most of us this was a day long in coming. For most of us we hoped that the fires of racial hatred would finally be suppressed even if it was for a little while….

… is equally obvious from the confused looks on our representative’s faces at town hall meetings, that they are still not getting it. Lately several representatives were asked if this Healthcare Reform Bill was so good for the American people would they join it too. The answer to a man (or woman) was, “Uhhh.

… the locals on the planet. They do not care for the sanctity of the alien life, whether it be women or children. And, they attack with sophisticated weapons against the bows and arrows of the natives. The glee with which the American Marines participate in this massacre is appalling and does not show the true feelings and concerns of the real United States Military. James Cameron should apologize to the American Military and should make a statem…

Mike McCarthy of the Green Bay Packers holds up the Vince Lombardi Trophy after winning Super Bowl XLV Many years ago, I remember reading an essay by David Mamet in which the playwright asserted that the only two true national holidays were The Super Bowl and The Oscars. While most holidays dispersed Americans to pursue their individual activities or chores, these two events brought the majority of Americans together, mostly around their televis…
