Dems’ energy policy: If you can’t beat ‘em, force it on ‘em »
By Brian Johnson
With the “cash-for-caulkers” bill, the Home Star Energy Retrofit Act (HR 5019), passing the House and making its way through the Senate, there have been substantiated rumors that Senate Democrats will try to expand the scope and incorporate additional “job creating” measures. They claim a federally mandated Renewable Energy Standard (RES) will do the trick.
The Hill reports that Senate Leader Harry Reid has said he would …
Obama Should Stop Contradicting Campaign Rhetoric »
By Jay Ambrose
The self-contradictions are catching up with the Obama administration. We will be transparent, they said. Only they aren’t. We will be accountable. Anything but. You will find us nonpartisan and above politics as usual, they insisted. Hardly.The job offer to keep Rep. Joe Sestak of Pennsylvania out of a Senate primary is instructive on this score.

Job offers were politics as usual »
Editorial by Denver Post
It’s beyond discouraging to watch the White House flail about as it tries to squelch the developing story of how it tried to keep Andrew Romanoff out of Colorado’s Senate race.
The Obama administration repeatedly had said it never offered a job to Romanoff, but now officials are not only saying they dangled jobs in front of him but that they did so to avoid a …

Madison was the most profound thinker among the Founders. Wilson, avatar of “progressivism,” was the first President critical of the nation’s founding. Barack Obama’s Wilsonian agenda reflects its namesake’s rejection of limited government.
Lack of “a limiting principle” …
Obama's 'Chicago Way' Plunders the Private Sector »
By Michael Barone
An interesting thing about Barack Obama is that he chose, on two occasions, to live in Chicago — even though he didn’t grow up there, had no family ties there, never went to school there.
It was a curious choice. Chicago has a civic culture all its own and one that is particularly insular. Family ties and personal connections are hugely important. Professionals who have lived and …
FedEx and Mr. Smith, tear down this website »
I’ve been on record as opposing federal bailouts of failing businesses because they waste taxpayer money, reward businesses that are poorly run, and because they are well outside the proper role of our constitutionally limited federal government. So when FedEx claimed that UPS was seeking a government bailout, I was prepared to jump all over another wasteful government program. But after I looked into FedEx’s claims, I realized that FedEx …
Obama Assists American Disconnect on Memorial Day by Returning Home »
A recent USA Today article discussed how there is a great disconnect between American families and military families on the holiday which should result in immense thankfulness to our nation’s soldiers. As it summarizes the issue with Paul Rieckhoff of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America stating “The average American family…goes to a barbecue (and) the average military family goes to a cemetery,” our current President’s recent actions did …
