Oh, Snap! Labor Department Offers Assistance To Illegals

Hmm, isn’t the Labor Dept., and arm of the UNITES STATES government, supposed to help, you know, AMERICAN citizens? Republican lawmakers are expressing shock over a Labor Department ad campaign that offers government assistance to illegal immigrants who think they’re getting shortchanged for their work — and at least one of them is planning to […]

Snap! Feds Tell Louisiana To Stop Dredging Sand To Create Barriers

First we had the little Coast Guard incident, where barges were held in port over lifejackets and fire extinguishers, now (via And So It Goes In Shreveport) Federal authorities have ordered the state to stop dredging east of the Mississippi River, where sand from the bottom is being gathered to build barriers against the encroaching […]

Judge Who Struck Down PeBO Drilling Ban Owns Oil Stock – Liberal Freakout Ensues

As usual, Democrats and their media peeps focus on the personal, rather than the facts The Louisiana judge who struck down the Obama administration’s six-month ban on deepwater oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico has reported extensive investments in the oil and gas industry, according to financial disclosure reports. He’s also a new member […]

PeBO Apparently Bored With The Whole Gulf Oil Spill Thing

He’s made his speech, visited the Gulf a few times, blamed a whole bunch of people, so, it is time for Obama to move on to other things that have importance to Himself. He had nothing scheduled this weekend, except some golf (we haven’t heard what he did Sunday, but, being Father’s Day, I’d give […]

Boy With Banned Soldiers Hat Honored By Real Soldiers

Remember that story about a Rhode Island boy who was informed by his school that he couldn’t wear his hat with toy soldiers glued on to it because they held tiny plastic guns (hard to believe that a toy soldier would carry a gun, eh)? Well, the story takes a trip down Awesomeness Road A […]

More Confirmation Of Coming PeBo Lawsuit Against Arizona

Mike Pence States TEA Party Should Also Focus On Morality

I’m going to have to disagree with Pence, and probably some of you readers, on this one The Tea Party movement and its grassroots political activists are defined by loyalty to the U.S. Constitution, limited government and individual liberty — not social issues such as abortion. That’s what one analyst argued at a gathering of conservatives in […]

Hey, Did You Know Jerry Brown Compared The Whitman Campaign To The Nazi’s?

Probably not. Since Jerry Brown is a Democrat and Meg Whitman a Republican, all his comment earned was, for the most part, brief blurbs in the California media. Imagine the reverse. That’s right, it would be wall to wall coverage Jerry Brown’s campaign for California governor continues to suffer fallout from off-the-cuff comments he made […]

Does Anyone Know What The Hell A “Green Job” Is?

The reason I ask, is because, apparently, the Democrats in government, who are pushing them, have not a clue, as Byron York points out Buried deep inside a federal newsletter on March 16 was something called a “notice of solicitation of comments” from the Bureau of Labor Statistics at the Department of Labor. “BLS is […]

Shocker! Benefit-less Jobs On The Rise

Anyone think the crazy insane legislation and positions of the Obama administration and elected Democrats could have anything to do with this? Jobs may be coming back, but they aren’t the same ones workers were used to. (yeah, they’re mostly short term government work. Sorry, just typing out loud.) Many of the jobs employers are […]
