Sarvis has raised $39,000, all from private donors, since his campaign launch. “We have been able to raise what we have needed so far,” […]

Mitt Romney should be ashamed of himself! With only $3 Million going to the Federal Government, How does he expect Mooch-chelle and Barack Obama to be able to afford their lavish Hawaii vacations? According to the Huffington Post, the Obamas were forced to spend $4 Million in taxpayer’s dollars to vacation in the style to […]

If we do not address culture, the Debt Ceiling debates are meaningless. Debt is a symptom of our cultural meltdown. Perhaps that is an overstatement. But, if we wish to become solvent again, emphasizing cultural solutions will get us farther than emphasizing economic fixes. Without such culturist discussions we will never pay down the debt […]

As the last flicker of American Exceptionalism dies out, those not in denial wonder ‘where has that spirit gone‘? World War II created the greatest generation this country has ever known.

Yes, Andrew Jackson hasn’t had this much fun since the Second Bank of the United States was abolished on his watch in 1836!

What a nose dive President Obama caused with his attack on the Nation’s financial institutions. The tailspin seems to be in retaliation for losing the “Kennedy” seat. Anyone with half a brain knows that an attack on the financial industry, the very group that will spearhead the recovery when Obama finally releases his grip on […]

In a shocking move that is sure to upset Christians in Bath Count and throughout Virginia, Democrat candidate Creigh Deeds has leveled attacks at Republican Bob McDonnell for his Catholic beliefs. Contraception is condemned in the Bible. The Catholic Church stands firmly against it’s use. In case you wish to see a list of scriptures […]
