If you see yourself as a HAMMER, you see everything and everyone else as a NAIL! I’m not sure who it was that said that; however, they know a lot about psychology. Obama is good at SPEECHES, so is anyone surprised that he likes to give a LOT of SPEECHES?
As someone said three weeks ago, [...]

Every President has his share of “lost moments”, a seeming black hole from which words are pulled out of ones mouth never to be able to be taken back again- EVER!

Naturally there have been several warnings [...]

According to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) Barak Obama’s massive spending in his “budget” will add $9.3 trillion in cumulative deficits over the next decade. $9.3 TRILLION ladies and gentlemen! (And those of us conservatives thought spending was out of control under George W. Bush!)

Barak Obama, Barney Frank, Christopher Dodd and any other Democrat who’s been wailing and moaning about the million dollar plus bonuses given out to current and former AIG executives should all be given an academy award for their pretend acting as if they’re outraged over this mess (created by the above mentioned socialists in the [...]

If there is any clearer indicator of why the government should not be involved in providing services that the private sector is far better at providing itself, it’s health care. (Sorry to those of you who think the federal government has screwed up education and/or welfare more…)
Think about it. Why is every other type [...]
