The Obama administration’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA/aka The Stimulus) has indeed packed one heck of a wallop, although not exactly the type being perpetually hyped and hawked by The One. Far from it. This from last month’s Congressional Budget Office report: When ARRA was being considered, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and the […]
After we came out of the church, we stood talking for some time together of Bishop Berkeley’s ingenious sophistry to prove the nonexistence of matter, and that every thing in the universe is merely ideal. I observed, that though we are satisfied his doctrine is not true, it is impossible to refute it. I never shall forget the alacrity […]
Like a wayward kid who can’t be trusted with his allowance for fear it will all be blown on candy and trinkets, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education needs an adult to ensure it makes the right budget decisions, specifically honoring a commitment to provide pay raises for teachers and school employees. Enter the Mecklenburg Board […]
The Democrats are inconsolable over their huge loss to Republican Governor Scott Walker. The people of Wisconsin were smart enough to figure out that Democrats would destroy their state even further. The leftists took to the Web to tell Americans what they think of being thwarted. Some of the best reactions are on Twitter. This is what […]
Picking up on Mark’s post regarding Voter ID hypocrisy, a compromise on a North Carolina Voter ID bill is likely to see a vote during the current short session of the General Assembly. Proposals include allowing a broader range of documents to be accepted as positive forms of identification rather than only a true photo […]
I’m sorry, but I just can’t help myself. I’ve got to spend a little more time on the Wisconsin election. The latest spin coming from the left, which lost in epic fashion, is that they were outspent by a margin of seven-to-one! Wow, that’s a major difference to be sure, but like so much of […]
Michelle Obama, in this case, who must be a closet racist. You know, like those evil conservatives who want to implement Voter ID laws, which all good liberals know are inherently immoral because many minority voters, they claim, lack photo identification. Racist, in other words. Except when you’re the First Lady trying to hawk a […]
Let us not forget the sacrifice and courage: Jump over to ARMY.MIL and listen to the audio. UPDATE: Speaking of not forgetting; guess who forgot? President Obama spent the day flying around the country, working in not one, not two, not three, but four campaign stops, skipping entirely any D-Day Anniversary tribute. This […]
To paraphrase: it was the best of times, it was the worst of times…it was a waste of time. Well, perhaps not a total waste of time; we did get to learn what democracy looks like with your eyes closed. The effort to recall Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker ended with a dull thud last night, […]
Ich bien ein cheesehead! Today we are all cheeseheads! While there is no reason to gloat there’s a lot of celebrating to do regarding the election results from Wisconsin, where Republican Governor Scott Walker beat back a recall election orchestrated by uber leftist political operatives and assorted union hacks determined to upend the results of […]
