Rep. John Mica Takes Deliberate Swipe At Tea Party Movement

By Tom Tillison

In grassroots circles and beyond, Rep. John Mica is often referred to as”arrogant”, an “elitist” with a strong sense of entitlement.

Adams; Keeping Your Private Information Safe From The NLRB’s Overreach

By Rep. Sandy Adams

Over the past few months, you have likely heard about proposals promulgated by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) aimed at making changes to the union election process.

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…

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.
