From Communism, to Socialism, to American and European Liberalism, the adherents and practitioners of these ideologies are excused the depth and breadth of the suffering they cause, because they are thought to be motivated by compassion. The politics of compassion are grotesque. Responsible representatives cannot balance our budget because they might have to cut funding […]

Welfare is supposed to be there to give recipients the basic needs support and enough to get by until they can get back on their feet. Unfortunately, that is no longer true. Liberals have been enriching welfare so much fo so long that if you fall on hard times and need a little help to […]

An editorial in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star calls Democrat Tim Kaine out for his “head in the sand” blind following of all things Obama. Honestly, listening to Kaine’s speech you would think America had a $16 Trillion Surplus instead of debt. It seems even the mostly left leaning Lance-Star has trouble swallowing Kaine’s revisionism. As for […]

My friend Doug Ross has a great post up. Barack Obama has discovered a new presidential power – making laws by presidential decree. Just like the Kings used to do, or Dictators still do today. Obama enacts amnesty, bypassing Congress, and the Democrats and the Mainstream Media go along with him. Ok. So I guess […]

During the 2008 election campaign, Candidate Barack Obama was fond of using the analogy that George Bush “drove the car in a ditch” to pertray an image that Bush had carelessly and perhaps recklessly caused the financial crisis in which America found itself. Here we are nearly four years later and the economy has yet […]

‘His latest stimulus bill is so flawed that Senate Democrats have rejected it… It’s nothing but a rehash of the same failed ideas he’s already tried, combined with a huge tax increase. This is a cynical political ploy that’s designed not to create jobs for struggling Americans, but to save the President’s own job.’ […]

Ba-Zillionaire Warren Buffett just became the latest darling of the left wing “Progressive” Class Warfare Specialists when he said that America needs to stop “coddling” the wealthy. He said that he pays a lower tax rate than his secretary. And somehow the left sees this as proof positive that their “soak the rich” scheme has […]

Calling this a cost cutting measure, Gates admitted that thousands of Virginians […]
