When you buy a gun you may have a background check, depending on where you buy it from. Go to a local gun show and buy one from some fellow enthusiast there and chances are you won’t receive a background check, unless that person is registered as a federal dealer. That’s the extent of it. […]
The Progressive Change Campaign Committee has launched a new 60-second ad targeting Rahm Emanuel: Rahm is a good target, but I think we should also look at Obama, who is ultimately in charge. We didn’t blame a lot of the stuff that happened under Bush solely on Karl Rove, so we can’t do the same […]
The story of the White House party crashers is apparently the only thing that has happened over the extended weekend if you listen to MSNBC, so let me take a moment and bring up my thoughts. There is a lot of finger pointing going on with this. Some are blaming the Secret Service, while others […]

Rick Perry was one of the heroes of that whole “Tea Party” crap, speaking out against the stimulus and rejecting part of it. Now governor secession wants federal money to cover – well the stuff that would have been covered by the rejected stimulus funds: Now that the state is dire straits, however, Perry is […]
Here we go with Bill O. sending out his goons again. This time Amanda at Think Progress was the target. Read her entire account of what happened here. Perhaps its time for O’Reilly to be tested. I have done some work in television in the past and when you tape someone you need a release […]
Compliments of the fed: The Federal Reserve entered a new era on Tuesday, setting its benchmark interest rate so low that it will have to reach for new and untested tools in fighting both the recession and downward pressure on consumer prices. Going further than analysts anticipated, the central bank said it had cut its […]
