For over fifty years Democrats have mastered and ruthlessly used catchwords and sound-bites to cover their scurrilous agenda and steer the national debate in their favor. For 2012 their buzzword will be ‘Republican Gridlock’! Don’t buy into it – that ‘gridlock’ was the only thing that saved our Republic from an Obama Bankruptcy! Let’s briefly [...]

We can all bemoan the coronation of Mitt as the ersatz chosen candidate of the GOP.  But it will probably happen.  The GOP is in dire danger of losing its way over this.  They think the TP is dead.  It’s certainly not.  I know, I go to more than one meeting a month on political [...]

27 Days Left!

December 4th, 2011

It’s time to stock up on 100w incandescant light bulbs.  You only have 27 days until your federal government makes them illegal. (75w bulbs go in 2013, the rest each year later)  Mrs RR and I have an entire cabinet in the basement filled with 40w, 60w, 75w, and 100w bulbs.  We buy them whenever they’re [...]

Congressman Bob Turner (R)NY-9th

September 14th, 2011

In the NY 9th Bob Turner won the seat vacated by Anthony ‘Sexting’ Weiner – and won despite MASSIVE Democratic efforts to save it.  The 9th has a huge population of Jewish voters, and the Dems brought in both Bill Clinton and Anthony Cuomo to [...]

Here it is, you’re own personal viewing guide for September 8th.  The President has decided to speak to all of us on opening night of the NFL.  A speech that wasn’t important enough to interrupt his vacation, but seems to be important enough to ask Congress to hold a rare joint session.  But, let’s make [...]

As a Tea Party member I have only one thing to say:  “Thank you”.   If it wasn’t for the Tea Parties around the country, and their influence on their elected representatives, this would have slid through Congress unnoticed.  I’m proud to be part of a group that helped put and end to the foolishness and [...]

So, who’s really to blame here?  The President?  The Tea Party?  Congress?  In the end, it’s the President.  He never submitted a credible budget to Congress for enactment.  He deliberately (IMO) submitted a budget that would lose (97-0) in order to create the crisis that exists today.  Either that, or he’s just plain stupid.  Blaming [...]
