Lefty press claims Obama can’t get angry because of racist right

By Jim Vicevich / June 10, 2010 /

This is too much … oh and yes … it’s also another media indictment of the “Tea Party”, and frankly this is starting to get a little old. Every time this President gets in trouble, which is often, the main stream media rides to the rescue with the charge of “raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacist”. It begins with yesterday’s…

Symptom of the Disease: Axelrod still getting paid by Obama’s marketing firm

By Steve McGough / August 18, 2009 /

Nice gig if you can get it. David Axelrod, adviser to President Obama and White House spam director, sold his Chicago-based Democrat-exclusive consulting and marketing firm in December. The sale included a deal where he would still get paid $2 million the firm owes him – or he owes himself – while serving as senior…

Krauthammer: Obama, Bush, and the torture show trials

By Jim Vicevich / April 22, 2009 /

When the young President changed his mind in less than 48 hours in regard to prosecuting lawyers and Bush Administration officials who authorized enhanced interrogation techniques, it caused confusion even among the White House Press Corps (no jokes please). So why, after sending out your chief of staff on Sunday and your press secretary on Monday, to make…

Garden Variety Depression?

By Jim Vicevich / March 4, 2009 /

It is a classic exchange cut down for your viewing pleasure. Matt Lauer on the March 3 Today Show has guests Jim Cramer and Erin Burnett on to explain the market crash.

The Caterpillar Flap Continues

By Jim Vicevich / February 13, 2009 /

It began with a statement by Obama yesterday, when he told reporters that the CEO of Caterpillar would hire back laid off workers as soon as the stimulus passed … and followed with a statement by the CEO of Caterpillar that … well no … he still would likely have to layoff more people. It’s…

Stimulus plan includes adding 1.2 million to Medicaid roles

By Steve McGough / January 30, 2009 /

Instead of dealing with nationalizing health care out in the open, the Obama stimulus plan takes the incremental – but significant step – to add more than one million Americans to the Medicaid roles if they are unemployed, or will soon be unemployed. This plan also includes millionaires who were laid off and not only…

Obama immigration Executive Order speech wrap-up

By Steve McGough / November 21, 2014 /

I watched only a few moments last night, and listened for a few more. It concerns me the president referenced Reagan and Bush 41 regulations and interpretations of laws* passed in Congress in comparison to his Executive Order that will completely ignore current law. But that’s not all conservatives are rightfully bitching about.

Obama to bypass Congress again – new student loan rules

By Steve McGough / June 9, 2014 /

In 2010, Congress pass and President Obama signed the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. Along with cutting off the private student loan market by removing subsidies, making loans pretty much the exclusive realm of the federal government, the legislation capped the repayments of new loans to 10 percent of the persons discretionary income. The previous cap…

Expected: Obama will campaign to bail out Detriot

By Steve McGough / July 20, 2013 /

Why not? Certainly if the federal government can come in and write unique and precedent-setting bankruptcy rules for General Motors, they can do the same thing for Detroit. For those of you who think Detroit’s problems belong to the city and Michigan, you’re wrong. You’re going to end up paying for it.

The growing threat of Obama’s sequester “cuts” (Video) and Update

By Steve McGough / February 20, 2013 /

Crying wolf one too many times? A long, long time ago the United States Congress had to deal with what was referred to as a “Fiscal Cliff.” If we went over the cliff, it would be disastrous for the United States and the world. To solve the problem, Congress changed the rules. What makes you think the…
