Media hype on firearms – Fox News refers to “exploding ammunition” that’s not
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say Taryn Asher from Fox News Detroit doesn’t have a clue as to what she’s speaking about. Plus, the person who fed her the hot tip about 1,000 rounds of armor piercing, exploding ammunition being stolen out of a car doesn’t have a clue either.
Read MoreGood morning, and Happy Thanksgiving
Our first president, George Washington proclaimed the fourth Thursday of each November, Thanksgiving Day. I had not read his proclamation in years, and just read it again this morning and wanted to share it with you. Read the message within. We hope you have a wonderful day with family and friends.
Read MoreTo Boehner: It’s too late to just delay Obamacare for a year
Critics fought the federal health care legislation really hard. At some point, the clock can not be turned back. I’m not saying we can’t eventually get rid of this stupid law, it’s just that we can’t delay it – delay anything – and expect the issue to be resolved in 34 days. Not. Gonna. Happen.
Read MoreSeattle Socialist council member – “Take over factories … shut down profit-making machine”
On Nov. 6, I told you how Prop 1 in SeaTac, Washington passed, requiring businesses to pay a minimum wage of $15 and provide paid sick leave.

Although the city of Bristol, Conn. will need to use $85,000 of “its own money” towards the purchase of a new generator for the police department and courts complex, FEMA – the federal government – will provide them with a $255,000 grant to cover the rest of the purchase and installation.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration wants your blood. They have been tasked to use federal funding to check on the use of alcohol and drug use by drivers on the road, and are working in 30 different cities to set up checkpoints with the help of local law enforcement.
Read More“We’re all Obama people” – Will they illegally share private information with campaigns?
Next on James O’Keefe Exposes the Left. Christopher Tarango currently works for Enroll America, a “nonpartisan” 501(c)(3) organization who has an advertised single mission “to maximize the number of uninsured Americans who enroll in health coverage made available by the Affordable Care Act.” That group has access to personal information (name, address, phone and email) of thousands of…
Read MoreCorrection: Congress and their Obamacare health care choices
On Oct. 30, I made the assumption Congress – since they are on an employer-based plan – would not have to sign up on an Obamacare website because of the employer mandate delay. I was incorrect, they do have to sign up online for a plan now, but we now know why they are not…
Read MoreObama blames Republicans for Obamacare problems
Oh no you don’t Mr. President. Republicans had absolutely nothing to do with the ‘problems’ you’re having with the rollout of this monstrosity. He certainly has the habit of placing blame elsewhere does he not?
Read MoreNew York City will embrace the “heavy hand of government”
A statement like that is not optional. You can’t not accept it. You have to capitulate and embrace it when the new mayor of New York City claims he is not a free marketeer, rather he believes in the heavy hand of government. I’m not making this up.
