First Banks, Now Countries? The P.I.G.S. Role in our future
Back in September and October of 08, as Ben Bernanky and Henry Paulsen were busy pulling their hair out, most of the general public had never heard of the term "moral hazard." Now moral hazard is a term thrown around by people with IQ's of 60 and above. Moral hazard is of... »
An interesting take on healthcare
UFC Champion Brock Lesnar (R-SD) suggests that during a recent medical emergency if he would have stayed in the Canadian healthcare system at best he would be forced into early retirement “and would have to wear a colostomy bag,” and “At worst, I could have died.” Harsh words for the President brought on criticism from... »
$3,800,000,000,000.00
$3,800,000,000,000.00 is how much Mr. Obama wants the United States to spend next year… $126,666.67 per person… 26.76% of the entire nation’s income. The proposed budget by the same president that wants to cut the deficit without raising taxes. Lip-service you can believe in. »
Two weeks in, worse than Katrina
Had Mr. Bush been president in 2010, how much rhetoric would the left-wing spawn in frustration about the current situation in Haiti? Perhaps Kanye West would create a variation on his 2005 hit song “George Bush Doesn’t Care About Black People“. Imagine the outrage. Where is this with Mr. Obama? »
Illinois gubernatorial race turning into slapfight
After the ousting of Governor Rod Blagojevich, Pat Quinn’s governorship seemed in relative peril going into 2010.

Obama’s report card: Not a B Plus
One year after Mr. Obama’s inauguration, it is hard not to provide a year in review. Unlike Mr. Obama’s delusional self-reflection, reality shows that Mr. Obama’s first year is far from a “good solid B+“. In order to grade Mr. Obama, we will use the definitions he established for himself in 2008. »

Near the border, religious leaders call for reform
In the continuing debate over immigration reform, several Houston church leaders call for immigration reform, even though polls suggest that a majority of parishioners stand against said reform. In South Texas, it must be a very difficult sale. Most agree that the current system is broken. “Immigration reform” seems to have a pro-illegal immigrant connotation. »
Racism still in the Senate
The party of segregation, slavery and suffering is at it again. “I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words. I sincerely apologize for offending any and all Americans, especially African-Americans for my improper comments.” –Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) Translation: I am not sorry for being thankful that Barack Obama was “light... »
