United Against The Porkapalooza … for what its worth.

By Jim Vicevich | February 13, 2009 |

Well House Republicans stood strong against the Porkapalooza that will saddle my children with an unbearable burden they don’t deserve. $800 billion to a trillion dollars (with interest) and that’s just this year and doesn’t count TARP or SON OF TARP. $3 trillion I heard. I’ve lost track. I will find some links to help…

An appeal to Obama supporters

Concealed Carry Works – Obama Ignores Facts

By Steve McGough | February 12, 2009 |

The state of Michigan recently celebrated an anniversary. Six years ago state legislature passed, and the governor signed, a new law that effectively made Michigan a shall-issue state when it comes to right-to-carry.

Culture of Corruption Continuuuuuues

By Jim Vicevich | February 12, 2009 |

We have been trying to keep a running score card on the Democrats culture of corruption here and here … but … we might as well throw the Wall Street Journal’s ledger in as well.
