“We can state with conviction, therefore, that a man’s support for absolute government is in direct proportion to the contempt he feels for his country.” ~ Alexis de Tocqueville I know that I shouldn’t, I should turn the other cheek; love thine enemies and all of that but please, God forgive me, I hate OBO the…
When it comes to the media… “One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.” ~Thomas Sowell The media has been liberally biased since Moses was a baby. Last night’s CNBC moderators deserve medals for being…
In the whole grand scheme of things in the Billary Benghazi Bluff and Bluster, it doesn’t matter how the establishment spins it since the facts are that both Obama and Clinton ignored Americans’ calls for help as they fought for their lives in Benghazi and then lied to the victims’ families as the coffins were brought…
Albert Einstein is widely credited with declaring “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results”. It really doesn’t matter that there’s absolutely no evidence that Einstein actually made this statement; it’s still a great quote! Likewise, it really doesn’t matter that whoever did coin this insightful genius…

The premise being – Have you noticed that every time OBO the Clown’s ideological agenda goes down in…
“Nero fiddled while Rome burned” is about as accurate a description of what America’s “golfer-in-chief” has going for him at the moment; albeit it is the metaphor of “shaft, chip, burn, and putt” on fairway and green that holds his intense interest at the moment and not the fact that “Vlad the Bad from Leningrad” is…
In the piece coming up from Carol Brown in today’s American Thinker, Dr. Ben Carson apparently didn’t get the RNC memo that if you get challenged by the MSM you’re supposed to cave-in and beg for forgiveness.
