Cut spending on everything

7:19 PM 01/16/2011

CBS News reports that most Americans (77%) want to cut Washington’s out-of-control spending rather than raise taxes (which only 9% favor) in order to balance the federal budget, but only 38% can name a specific program's budget that they'd be willing to see cut.

It’s the spending, stupid

Please take a moment and let this sink in -- it doesn't matter whether or not Bush's tax cuts expire. Either way, taxpayers will be on the hook for the trillions in obligations that Washington has incurred and continues to add to at an alarming and ever-accelerating rate.

The real freaks in politics

This summer everybody had a good laugh at the Democratic Party's nomination of Alvin Greene to challenge Republican incumbent Jim DeMint for a U.S. Senate seat representing South Carolina. And we're all still laughing now that he's considering a run for president in 2012.

The House Republicans' Pledge to America might just be too little, too late. I have marveled for a year now at how easily the Republicans have let Democrats get away with calling them "obstructionists" and accusing them of having no ideas or solutions of their own, only criticisms of the Democratic agenda.

Lies and the lying Democrats who tell them

4:12 PM 09/20/2010

Yesterday the New York Times reported that Obama's political advisers are trying to think of ways to give Democrats a boost in the final months leading up to the midterm elections, including national advertisements “to cast the Republican Party as all but taken over by Tea Party extremists.”

Rules for racists

3:59 PM 07/20/2010

A textbook tactic of statist radicals in America is the systematic character assassination of their enemies as racists. Loathe to engage their intellectual opponents in a real discussion of the issues, lest the radicals should be perceived for what they are and lose the fight to bring America under their heel, they prefer instead to slander their opponents, to intimidate and shout them down, and to destroy their credibility with whatever lies or twisted propaganda they can muster in a never-ending witch-hunt.
