…lity to pay. The president has said that this legislation is “historic”. He’s right. This is the first time that the federal government has been given the power to dictate what you must buy if you’re a United States citizen. This new “entitlement” will attempt to be funded by only 50% of the taxpayers who actually pay federal income taxes, but will generate serious budget deficits over the next 10 years. To pou…

The term, “national security” has come to be synonymous with national defense. But given the geography of the United States, it’s unlikely we would ever need to use our defense forces to secure the homeland from an invading army.

…ts own members, many more actors would have steadier employment; especially the ones that can actually act. SAG has jurisdiction against producers only within the boundaries of the USA. They are not recognized outside of the United States and hence have no controls. Many other countries such as the UK, Canada and Australia have their own actor’s unions which are considered sister unions of SAG. Because of this lack of jurisdiction, SAG cannot …

“Yesterday, Dec. 7, 1941 – a date which will live in infamy – the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.” With that one simple sentence President Franklin D. Roosevelt thrust the United States in to World War II. Seventy years ago today the Japanese Navy conducted a successful airstrike on the American fleet and air stations at Pearl Harbor and the Hawai…

A few days days ago, Obama gave a speech at a high school in Kansas. The president told Americans that free market capitalism does not work. Let me repeat that so it can settle in.

… the left can never criticized a future Republican foreign policy again, at least one in which a Republican administration kicks ass. Now for the lessons, the first being is that NATO can only serve a supplemental role to the United States when it comes to any offensive actions. European nations spend far less as a percentage of the GNP on their military and without United States support, the Libya operation would have failed. French and Britis…

… Obama is an unimaginative thinker when it comes to foreign affairs or for that matter, domestic affairs since his mindset is that if government can’t do it; it can’t be done. Obama, like most of his leftist allies, view the United States one of many nations, which is why he was perfectly willing to lead from behind at times.

Even though it is a military run country, its people have more freedom of expression than we have here in the United States thanks to the PC movement, the ACLU and our friends on the Far Left.

“Today, every inhabitant of this planet must contemplate the day when this planet may no longer be habitable. Every man, woman and child lives under a nuclear sword of Damocles, hanging by the slenderest of threads, capable of being cut at any moment by accident, or miscalculation, or by madness. The weapons of war must be abolished before they abolish us.” -John F. Kennedy (JFK) In an address before the General Assembly of the United Nations…
