Breaking: CNBC's Harwood: No Vote in the House Tonight — U.S. Will Go Over the Fiscal Cliff

Obama just had what was possibly the most insulting press event I’ve ever seen from a President — I’ll post the video when available, it will infuriate you. But force yourself to watch it.
He spiked the football, overtly insulted Republicans and Congress, and laughed that he is on the verge of getting what he wants. Either he wants to nix any deal, or he’s actually just enjoying his victory but is emotionally incapable of being presidential about it. Everything you ever wanted to know about our dysfunctional government was on display.
It is disheartening to continually read, listen to and watch conservatives failing to recognize what is happening right in front of their face. President Obama is rapidly taking us to a place of no return. Some might actually argue we are already there. I would be hard pressed to disagree with them. Consider these facts: (more…)
I find myself in total agreement with this person. Does this ring true to your frame of reference also?…..
(Deb) I no longer wonder how so many people who lived during Hitler’s evil reign of terror could have gone along with the unimaginable inhumanity of Naziism. I used to wonder about it. Not anymore.
I see horrifyingly evil “opinions” expressed by fellow Americans every day on Twitter, and in comment sections of blogs. They don’t just disagree with conservatives – they want us to shut up, lose our jobs, be financially ruined, or to drop dead. They actually root for Republicans to die, and when they do die, the ghouls celebrate their deaths. Not just one or two weirdos – but huge packs of them.
[…] Many of Obama’s most loyal subjects would volunteer to drive the cattle cars – they would operate the ovens for free. (more…)
Originally we wrote this post in March 2012 in response to the continuing crisis that surrounds this administration, and consequently our nation, on a daily basis.
This is, in a larger sense, all purpose driven.
People often talk about and reference Rahm Emanuel’s famous quote: “never let a good crisis go to waste“; But fewer people actually connect those words to the ideology behind them.
Fabian Socialists became modern Progressives, and comfort in crisis is essential to their goals. Crisis becomes the “new normal” in the world of anyone, or any nation, as they suffer the impact from association with progressives.
When you understand it, you understand what Candidate Obama meant when he proclaimed: “we are 3 days away from the fundamental transformation of America“!
Yesterday, on Meet The Press, President Obama used the word “fundamental” again.
“Something fundamental in America has to change,” said Obama, who visited on December 16 with families of victims of the Newtown, Connecticut, school shootings. (link)
The president said Sunday he will put forth a proposal next year to change firearm laws. (more…)
We originally presented this back in June 2012. However, in the face of the current conversation regarding gun control, it is appropriate to revisit the concept of Law Enforcement and “affirmative duty”:
In the video, and in the article, the local law enforcement again repeat the mantra she was “lucky” and it is best to avoid confrontation/contact with attackers. However, does anyone consider that the “avoidance principle” is exactly what empowers these attackers to escalate their activity?
Two teenage boys, one 16 and one 18, grope young Ms. Dang, and let’s say she just took off running, what do you think these boys will do next time? While I certainly agree that a person should never put themselves knowingly in a position of danger, once that danger is encountered I do not subscribe to automatically thinking the best option is to engage the “victim” mentality.

Prepare to be uncomfortable. Today we will share some truthful information regarding the pending Dianne Feinstein “Assault Weapon” legislation.
But first I want to remind you of a specific date: January 20th 2010.
That was the day AFTER Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown won his historic election and turned the “Kennedy Seat” back to the “Peoples Seat”……..
Everyone, and I do mean “everyone”, proclaimed victory in killing Obamacare, there was no way President Obama was going to get it passed now because Brown represented the proverbial 41st Senate vote against it, reducing the Senate support to 59 one less than Harry Reid needed.
Oh, how joyful, and insufferably naive the Constitutional Conservative, Tea Party, Republican movement was. As a lone voice, we shouted out then the opinion that it did not matter, Obamacare would get through ‘By.Any.Means.Neccessary’, because we know these people and how they operate, and it did. On January 20th our little voice was an infinitesimal minority – Everyone thought victory over Obama was at hand. (more…)
Here’s that “Moderate” Gun Reform as promised: In January, Senator Feinstein will introduce a bill to stop the sale, transfer, importation and manufacturing of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition feeding devises.

Bans the sale, transfer, importation, or manufacturing of:
Whether or not you own a firearm, or care about the Second Amendment, you should watch these manuevers closely. It ain’t about guns.
Remember when President Obama’s Office of Legal Council argued defense of “Obamacare” under the auspices of taxing authority? Subsequently, the 10th Amendment was essentially bypassed.
This article focuses on the “buy back” possibility. But that is not how this crew operates. They will work through the “Permitting and/or Registration Taxation” angle. The current administration is exceptionally skilled at using regulation (see Cass Sunstein) to control freedom.
WASHINGTON DC – Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said that she and other gun control advocates are considering a law that would create a program to purchase weapons from gun owners, a proposal that could be compulsory. (more…)
Yesterday we shared an article from a Gannett Publication “The Journal News” located in New York. Many persons were, and are, outraged this media publication sought to publish the full names, addresses and contact information of lawful registered gun permit owners – essentially handgun owners.
The lead up article is HERE, and their article with interactive mapping is HERE.
The political ideology of the publication is abundantly evident in their articles, and to a larger sense visible within the editorial board who would advance such a decision to publish information. They hold far-left views.
Their decision to publish the registered gun ownership visibly exemplifies one of the most vocal arguments by Second Amendment advocates who rail against registration. Namely, f a political decision to confiscate was ever carried out only those who have lawfully abided by registration laws would be subject to confiscation. But there’s more. (more…)
