That’s right—this President not only appointed the “high priest” of missile defense denialism as his top adviser on missile defense, but he did so in a way to purposefully avoid Senate consultation on the matter.
This is the President some Senate conservatives want to trust? On missile defense? Really?
This Senate should just leave New START to the next Congress and go home.
Editor’s Note – So what if the majority of those who actually do the fighting AND dying for our country oppose this. They should just keep quiet and bleed, after all, the elite Progressive Left, with their intellectual superiority, knows what’s best for all of us.
As for the eight Republican Senator’s who voted in favor of this measure, I submit again is there really much difference between a Democrat and a Progressive Republican?

With the November elections in the books and a new more conservative Congress to be sworn in, the “tea party” movement has two paths it can follow;
One is to stand behind big spending Republicans to help defeat big spending Democrats and the other is to support fiscally conservative Republicans defeat big spending Republicans in primaries.
The lesser of two evils approach has won in the past but the future is up for debate.

The following article details just how hard our elected officials work at hiding the influence of special interests.
The article was sent to me by a State Senator who said it is common practice for legislators to set up consulting fees and get hundreds of thousands of dollars from the special interests who get our tax dollars. I was told it is common to title the consulting company in the names of family members. This in and of itself is a deception.
Has enough time passed yet to take an honest look at the overall results of the November election, from a tea party perspective?
Considering that we have a two party system at this point, I buy into the philosophy that we are conservatives in the primary and Republicans in the general. Now, should the Republican Party blow this second chance they’ve been given, and there are many who believe they will, this could very well be the catalyst that launches a meaningful third party in this country.
Now here’s some news conservatives can feel good about.
The Congressman from Iowa is as intelligent as any Ivy Leaguer, has a tireless work ethic forged in the heartland of America and brings a down to earth, common sense approach to legislating.

What an incredible message this man has…an inspiration to us all. A message that gives you hope for America, that helps you recall a better time in this country, when we stood for so much more. We listen and we hope…
More than anything, we hope Marco Rubio remembers his own message as he goes to Washington, D.C. We hope his father serves as a constant reminder to keep him focused on the values that we, the people uphold. Rubio now has the challenge of living up to these high expectations, yet, should he triumph, the future will indeed be very bright for this son of an exile.
With Republicans set to make significant strides tomorrow here in Florida, with all other state cabinet level candidates comfortably ahead in the polls, the governor’s race is still very much in play.
It will certainly be a bittersweet day for conservatives, except for those who hail from the backrooms of Tallahassee, if tomorrow’s victories do not include Rick Scott for Governor.
And, according to the polls, we’ll only need to look within our own ranks for the reason why…
We have met the enemy and it is us…?
Editor’s Note – Encouraging news for the conservative minded…
Nonetheless, the election is NOT over. There are still millions of votes to be cast throughout the state tomorrow. If you did not participate in early voting, it’s imperitive that you make it to the polls.
Just as Florida has been on the cutting edge of the tea party movement around the country, so too does it have the opportunity to send a resounding message to Washington, D.C. A message that says we cast aside the failed tax and spend big government liberal agenda of Barack Obama and the Progressive Left.
That is, IF you decide to vote.

The entire Republican ticket was in Orlando Saturday morning for a Victory Rally. Jeb Bush was also on hand to lend his support and to get conservatives motivated to get out the vote on Tuesday- voter turnout is what decides the outcome! Enjoy!

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…

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.

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.”

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 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.”
