Here’s Rush: The whole reason that there is a resurgence of piracy, which is something that was thought to have been stamped out a couple of hundred years ago, is precisely because idiots like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama think pirates and terrorists — and this is terrorism — are criminals, not enemies. Gee, and […]
“I want to single out Jonah Goldberg of National Review for being the first that I saw to have the proper reaction to the rescue of Captain Phillips from the merchant marine organizers, and that was to congratulate President Obama for a job well done. I would not only like to jump on the bandwagon, […]
Signs of the times – Hoovervilles, coming to a town near you! Here’s the picture they used in the New York Times article. An encampment of tents under an overpass in Fresno. Of all the cities in the US, why feature Fresno? There are certainly other cities that have bigger Hoovervilles than us. Given that […]
This is the reality the Democrats are facing. Everyone is making a fuss over the $165 million bonuses paid out to AIG execs, money that was available to them via the government bailout.

I’ve always understood that this would require a constitutional amendment, but I’m not a lawyer so I’ll leave this up to the experts. However, […]
I Just Joined The American Tea Party!. I left the sham of the Republican Party two years ago. Right now they are trying to reclaim the image of fiscal conservatives, but sorry, I judge you by how you act, not by what you say, especially now that you’re out of power. You had six years […]
