Man does this just make me mad. The recent SCOTUS decision confirmed that the Second Amendment was an individual right, but the Washington D.C. government still refuses to get with the program. This morning Dick Heller went to city hall or where ever to apply for his permit and it was automatically rejected. Heller’s pistol…

Another great piece by Pete Hegseth……read full piece here In fact, just one question entered my head when I finished reading: Why now? Why would Sen.

Guess I’m not the only one……….Read full article here, it’s a good read broken down point by point. Privately, however, there is a different message coming from some Democratic quarters on the Hill and on K…

I suppose its progress … at least in the empire state it will be a slow bleed. The poll found 75 percent favor a circuit breaker, even it it means raising income taxes on those who earn more than $1 million annually. At the same time, 69 percent supported Gov. David Paterson’s plan to cap…

Outraged … outraged, I tell you. I am so sure Fox 61 will be here any minute to get my take on this Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist’s depiction of John McCain. And the media will be all over this and it will be the subject of talk show fodder and Obama of course will reject…
