(h/t freedom1781)…Out here in proverbial politico flyover country, we little folk are watching the debt ceiling debate with great interest and concern. Today I re-read the open letter I wrote to Republican Freshman Members of Congress in November 2010, just days after they were ushered into office in an historic landslide victory due in large part to the activism of commonsense patriots who are considered part of the Tea Party movement. I respectfully ask these GOP Freshman to re-read this letter and remember us “little people” who believed in them, donated to their campaigns, spent hours tirelessly volunteering for them, and trusted them with our votes. This new wave of public servants may recall that they were sent to D.C. for such a time as this. (more…)

HatTip Gracie FACEBOOK After listening to the President’s press conference today, let’s keep in mind the following:
This is the same president who proposed an absurdly irresponsible budget that would increase our debt by trillions of dollars, and whose party failed to even put forward a budget in over 800 days! This is the same president who is pushing our country to the brink because of his reckless spending on things like the nearly trillion dollar “stimulus” boondoggle. This is the same president who ignored his own debt commission’s recommendations and demonized the voices of fiscal sanity who proposed responsible plans to reform our entitlement programs and rein in our dangerous debt trajectory.

Yesterday afternoon, PhillyCon left me the link to a very interesting review along with the following words of encouragement.  “To everyone fighting the good fight:  sometimes we don’t see the fruits of our labor immediately, it happens when we least expect.”  The link she referred me to perfectly  illustrates her point.  The following report comes from the Essex & Orange 1773 team from San Francisco, California…via Barbaric Thoughts.  (more…)

I know some of you are planning on seeing “The Undefeated” this weekend, and I thought you might be curious to read about the highlights you can look forward to viewing.  I was lucky enough to attend one of the movie’s previews last June 30th, and using the footlights in the theater, I took copious notes.  The following is my synopsis of the movie based on those  notes.
The movie is presented in three acts with a coda. It is based on Palin’s book, “Going Rogue”. (more…)

It seems that being on the cover of Newsweek, and rating an eight page article, has once again added fuel to the flames of liberal paranoia.  “Palin Plots Her Next Move”…looks for clues into what the Alaska Dispatch refers to as the “Mystery of 2012”.  Sounds like someone’s been reading a little too much Nancy Drew doesn’t it? 
New clues in the Sarah Palin ‘Mystery of 2012’ reads like the nervous angst of a young teenager fearing their reality imperiled.   They really do fear her. (more…)

Oh no!   Imagine a world where the dung-covered Madonna, or the crucifix in a jar of urine would not be allowed to exist.  Such could be our very world if Sarah Palin is allowed to do away with the National Endowment for the Arts.  In an effort to reduce our fourteen trillion dollar federal deficit, Palin has suggested ending federal subsidies for National Public Radio ($3.34 million), the National Endownment for Humanities ($132.8 million), and the National Endowment for the Arts ($154.7 million).  As you can well imagine, this has once again caused leftie heads to twist, twirl, then eventually explode.  (more…)

I won’t hold my breath..… (Boston Herald)  The vicar of Old North Church says  he’s miffed at the “gotcha”-seeking media for twisting Sarah Palin’s  stop at the Hub landmark earlier this month into an endless GOP-bashing  circus.  Palin continues to be ridiculed for her comments on Paul Revere’s  ride, but the Rev. Stephen T. Ayres told the Herald this weekend it’s  all a tempest in a Tea Party pot.

“I am amazed that this silly story refuses to die,” he said. “I  lament what’s happening to our culture. Everything is reduced to  one-upmanship or gotcha.” (more…)
