Finally. Actually, I can not take sole credit for pointing out Boston mayor’s Tom Menino (D) hypocrisy as he targeted Chick-fil-A business owner Dan Cathy’s personal view on gay marriage, compared to his complete silence on radical Islam’s extreme view on homosexuality; death to them…
Have you ever wondered why, despite the claims of knowing what is best for our children and the millions of dollars thrown at the public education system, schools in cities and states exclusively controlled by Democrats aren’t the most wonderful and perfect schools in existence? Where is the liberal utopia that is promised every election cycle? Read more
This is not new, and it’s been happening since the White House announced Fox News would be banned from the press pool since they are not a real news outlet in Oct. 2009.

Contact your elected officials right now. Keep them and their staffers from leaving the office early on a Friday afternoon and ask them to ensure this is not rushed through. Then politely remind them of the 10th Amendment and let them know if the states want universal health care coverage, we’ll do it on our own thank you very much.
President Obama – in my opinion – should have kept his mouth shut concerning the arrest of Professor Henry Gates Jr. up in Boston. By claiming the police acted stupidly (his word) he’s ticked off every police officer in the country. All of that said, I’ve uploaded a copy of the police report if you’re interested.
