Anyone who knows me knows that I have been a supporter of the Global War on Terrorism, and eliminating terrorists when possible. I applauded Obama’s decision to put boots on the ground to take out Osama bin Laden, one of those rare occasions where I agreed with something Obama did. ...

There is a lot of hub-bub going around about the Democrats push to raise the Federal debt ceiling, the GOP push for a Balanced Budget Amendment, and the need for the House Republicans to compromise on these issues, and the more important issue of out-of-control government spending. There is even ...

Ace of Spades has a good piece on the tracking bin Laden timeline, well worth reading.
Meantime, my thanks the men and women of our Armed Forces and our Intelligence community for doing what was necessary and asked of them to bring down one of the most evil people in history. ...

It's a rare day when I agree with someone from Obama's administration, however it looks to me like one appointee, James Clapper, director of national intelligence, is right on the money. The only thing I find surprising is that he is an Obama appointee. As for Senator Graham's call for ...

Obama has a new political failure, and, no doubt, there will be more to come during the next two years of his presidency. The latest is in insulting our closest ally, the United Kingdom (aka Great Britain, also England). How did he manage to do this? By declaring France, yes, ...

An anonymous author wrote to me the following statement:
"I am sick of people telling me what a great job Obama has done since taking office. Here's a list of his many failures."
1. Seized control of General Motors and forced the ouster of its duly elected CEO.
2. ...

$200 Million per day for a trip to India. Okay, how many people do you know that can afford to spend that kind of money for a vacation? I sure can't think of anyone in that category. Yet that is how much Obama is spending of OUR money for his ...

Every lousy column needs a response, and so it is with the latest from Eugene Robinson and his take on "Tea Party ire."
First, I'll state the obvious: It's not racist to criticize President Obama, it's not racist to have conservative views, and it's not racist to join the Tea Party. ...

What do the numbers 3 and 20 have in common? Okay, that first one is scaled down; the 3 is for $3 TRILLION. The 20 is the number of months Obama has been in office. Put them together and you have the amount that Obama has increased the National Debt. ...

Okay, Obama is obviously NOT a serious leader if he thinks it is okay for us to absorb 9/11 scale terrorist attacks. From the Washington Post:
During an interview with Woodward in July, the president said, "We can absorb a terrorist attack. We'll do everything we can to prevent it, ...

Barack Obama, while addressing the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (another racist group dedicated to divindg Americans along racial lines), deliberately edited out honoring the Creator when quoting the Declaration of Independence.
Roughly one minute into the video:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, endowed with certain ...

How many people remember Obama's campaign promise that he would remove ALL U.S. troops from Iraq within his first 16 months of office? Now, nearly 20 months after Obama was sworn into office, he has declared an end to combat operations in Iraq, and the last combat brigades left that ...

It's amazing what a difference 20 months makes on the political scene. For the eight years of the Bush Administration, we heard an unending scream condemning deficit spending by the Left and how it was eating away our children's future. Yes, Bush, with the help of a Democrat controlled Congress, ...

I've been negligent in my writing duties again. Lot's happening, including deciding to stop playing WoW, which has been the primary cause of my writing absence. Fun game, but I'd rather get back to the business of writing. That being said…
Lots of things going on in the Greatest Nation on ...

Dear Comrade:
My heartiest congratulations on advancing the People's cause by nationalizing Amerika's health insurance industry. What a stroke of genius; destroying the capitalistic health insurance industry, forcing all Americans to buy sub-standard health care coverage, raising taxes and government spending to new levels, and expanding government with over 100 new ...

And now a message from the Obama Administration Peanut Gallery:
"In the long run we can't continue to spend as if deficits don't have consequences, as if waste doesn't matter, as if the hard earned tax dollars of the American people can be treated like monopoly money, that's what we've seen ...

Why is ObamaCare considered by those on the Right to be unconstitutional? A fair question. There are several reasons why it is unConstitutional.
The number one reason most cited is that it requires every American to purchase health insurance, whether they want to buy it or not, and then prescribes what ...

Captain's Log, Stardate, oh, wait, that's pajama boy stuff.
I was at my usual spot at the bar in Quark's Place when Quark came up with my first round of Guinness with a tribble sweat chaser. He looked like he wanted to tell me something pretty badly.
"Okay, Quark, spill it. What's ...

I've been unaware of the comparisons between Mr. Spock of Star Trek and Barack Obama until this week. Obama is like Spock? Go figure! Obama is a science geek? On what basis do they come to that conclusion?
Okay, disclaimer time. I've never liked Spock. He has always been my least ...
