By Steve McGough / May 12, 2011 /

Without a doubt, one of Mitt Romney’s hurdles for conservatives will be his support for a state government health care mandate in Massachusetts. But something immediately caught my eye while reviewing his presentation today. For those of you who read my stuff, can you guess what it is?

Missouri taking back state’s rights on gun control

This is somewhat interesting step for states looking to take back powers not prescribed in the US Constitution from the federal government.

Symptoms of the Disease: LEO salaries and mini-golf direction from federal government

By Steve McGough / June 28, 2012 /

I really should get back to my Symptom of the Disease series. If Jim and I were to write a book, we’ve discussed this as a topic. Kind of a mesh between Mark Levin’s Liberty & Tyranny and Michelle Malkin’s Culture of Corruption. One leads to the other. Anyway…

Hey McDermott – Congress does not have authority to fill gas tanks

By Steve McGough / July 23, 2008 /

Sticking with the you-need-government-to-take-care-of-you theme, Representative Jim McDermott, a congressman from Washington state, has brought fourth legislation to help the hard working people around the United States that are having a tough time paying for gasoline. That’s right, he wants the federal government to help fill gas tanks. What a tool. Congressman, do you have…
