Quote of the Day: Graves on “Card Check”
March 11th, 2009 · No Comments
“Card Check throws the secret ballot and privacy rights out the door for workers. I agree with Warren Buffett that the secret ballot is a fundamental American principle. Washington should be focused on creating and preserving jobs, not passing legislation that will cost more workers their jobs.” “Card Check” would allow labor unions to be […]

Email we recently received. (Thanks Chris & Chris!) Friends, The attached picture was taken with my phone at the Wash. U. Campus. This was a “lecture” event sponsored by the Alternative Lifestyle Association. This is what passes for “enlightened” education. Warning these topics are vulgar.

Foolish Youth

Unemployment is rising, the stock market is tanking, and our new president wants to turn our economy into socialist Europe by raising taxes “on the rich” (and the rest of us eventually) to pay for his welfare programs.

March 9th, 2009 · No Comments
We’re big believers here that money is free speech, and that you should be able to give as much money as you want – as long as it’s transparent. That’s why we have no problem with James and Virginia Stowers of the Stowers Institute giving $500,000 to the Life Sciences Fund of the Political Action […]

Pork Is Bi-Partisan
March 9th, 2009 · No Comments
Since we exposed CCCP blogger (Committee for County Progress) and attorney Stephen Bough’s (illegal) hyper-partisanship last year, he’s been pratically AWOL on the Democratic blog. Maybe that’s a good thing for bi-partisanship because this post from “Anne” is actually praising retiring Senator Kit Bond: “Love him or hate him, Jackson County has benefited from his […]

The Cure Worse Than The Illness
March 9th, 2009 · No Comments
“Bad Luck Schleprock” Why do Democrats good intentions (such as raising taxes) always seem to backfire and make a problem worse? Remember the infamous “luxury tax” from the early 1990’s: From an Advertiser Tribune article (Ohio) “In 1991, a 10-percent excise tax was enacted on the portion of sales prices higher than $30,000 for automobiles, […]

March 9th, 2009 · No Comments

Turnabout is Fair Play
March 9th, 2009 · No Comments
To use “Hip Hop Republican” language, several reporters got the “script flipped” on them last week. There is an opinion among many that most reporters are nothing more than weasels and bottom feeders who lurk behind every corner trying to embarrass politicians and prominent people. Before the new media, they enjoyed an immunity from criticism […]
