Who’s That ‘Guy’ At Occupy?

By Linda O’Keefe

Just as the Gadsden Flag has come to represent the Tea Party Movement, a mask has reached iconic status in the ‘Occupy’ movement.

Protesters in Occupy “utopias” across the country are donning a sinister looking mask. It is a mask that resembles the historical English figure, Guy Fawkes…

Pelosi; ‘Occupy Wall St’ Crowd Represents 99% Of America *[Viewer Warning]

By Linda O’Keefe

While attacking the so-called radicals of the Tea Party as racists and terrorists, the Democrat Leaders are embracing this Occupy Wall Street Movement.

They tell us this movement represents 99% of Americans, however the pictures of this movement that are coming in beg to differ…

Yesterday was the 60th day of President Obama’s “kinetic military action” in Libya.

According to the War Powers Act of 1973, the President is required to secure congressional approval for military operations within 60 days, or withdraw forces within the next 30 days…

Subsidy or Tax Break… What’s the difference?

By Linda O’Keefe

We have got to reform our tax codes. To simplify the tax code would remove so much of the power of DC politicians. Fair tax, Flat tax or whatever! Let’s do SOMETHING!

47% Americans do not pay taxes. Since they have no skin in the game, what do they care about the complexity of the tax code?

Oil Co. Exec’s Fail To Display Proper Level Of Fear Before Congress?

By Linda O’Keefe

This week I had the chance to watch the oil company executives testify before the Senate Finance Committee. As the ranking republican member Senator Orrin Hatch stated, this hearing was nothing more than a dog and pony show.

With rising prices at the pump, democrats are trying to cast blame on the “evil” oil companies. But in fact, it is President Obama’s energy policy that calls for higher gas prices…

Bill Nelson, Melding Arrogance

By Linda O’Keefe

I’m very surprised at the arrogance displayed in Senator Bill Nelson’s latest tweet. He must feel his support of rail will win him campaign favor.

Businesses who will profit from this government rail and liberals are going to flood the public with high speed rail support. Who will listen to us??

Socialism Has Many Faces

Socialism Has Many Faces

Twenty-first-century socialism in Latin America actually consists of five socialisms, as many as the countries that constitute that caudillo-led, anti-republican, chaotic and authoritarian little world.

They unite in anti-Americanism, in the conviction that individuals must be at the service of the State, not the opposite, in their contempt for the market and in the superstition that the caudillo knows exactly what benefits or hurts all citizens, but they’re very different.

WikiLeaks: Cuba Banned Sicko For Depicting ‘Mythical’ Healthcare System

Cuba banned Michael Moore’s 2007 documentary, Sicko, because it painted such a “mythically” favourable picture of Cuba’s healthcare system that the authorities feared it could lead to a “popular backlash”, according to US diplomats in Havana.

The revelation, contained in a confidential US embassy cable released by WikiLeaks , is surprising, given that the film attempted to discredit the US healthcare system by highlighting what it claimed was the excellence of the Cuban system.

War On Women Can Be Fought At The Polls

War On Women Can Be Fought At The Polls

By Kim Carroll

Women have the power. They take their right to vote seriously and show up at the polls in greater numbers than men according to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University.

In 2008, 60.4 percent of eligible female voters cast their vote versus 55.7% of eligible males. According to the same study, more women are registered to vote than men, 66.6 million versus 63.5 million. Maybe that’s why the “War on Women” has taken a front seat in this election…

The Interest Bomb Is Ticking

By: George Noga

This post kicks off a three-part series about the crisis of spending, debt and deficits.

The next part deals with the interval between now and the inevitable arrival of the Minsky Moment, i.e. the unknown and unknowable time when an unsustainable economic phenomenon suddenly collapses.

The third post will address Gotterdammerung, or what happens after the Minsky Moment.

Is Mack Campaign Getting Desperate?

By Tom Tillison

It’s a fair guess that Connie Mack has seen some recent polling that has gotten his attention.

As the week closed out, the rhetoric coming from the Mack campaign took on a rather fervent pitch. In a press release sent out Thursday, it made the claim that opponent George LeMieux has “endorsed raising Florida’s sales tax to a nation-leading 16 percent.”

Obama’s IPAB Death Panels Limit More Than Just Health Care Access

By L. Persona

Florida Democrats believe they can win a few Republican seats in Congress and are preparing a major offensive against several Republicans facing tough challenges this year. They believe that redistricting gives them a chance to offset the seats they are sure to give up.

However, the Democrats still fail to realize the albatross that ObamaCare places on their party’s efforts…

A Black Guy At The Dallas, TX Tea Party Rally

By Lloyd Marcus

A big well dressed black guy attended the Dallas, TX tea party rally with his white buddy. Both men missed my singing performance on stage minutes earlier.

I asked the black gentleman who had an impressive physique how often he worked out. He replied, “Everyday.” His white buddy said with a chuckle, “He thinks the Tea Party is racist.”
