We Will Control the Horizontal

By TomTGRWolcott / June 14, 2012 /

I have read the United States Constitution on more than one occasion.  I have read it just to read it. I have read it looking for specific information, and no where on that document does it say anything about government making life changing decisions on my behalf.

Symptom of the Disease: Federal funds used for N.J. Hurricane Sandy relief

By Steve McGough / January 13, 2014 /

This is the kind of stuff that always comes up when the federal government steps in to provide funding to a local area with a bail out. New Jersey and Gov. Chris Christie is being investigated concerning how they spent federal dollars for a marketing campaign to promote the state and its shoreline.

Clerical error ensures New Jersey loses $400 million in education funding

By Steve McGough / August 26, 2010 /

This “Race to the Top” thing is totally stupid. From what I remember, Connecticut failed to get an application in on time and lost out, now New Jersey inserts 2008 budget numbers into a binder – instead of the required 2010 numbers – and they miss out [oh well] on $400 million?

More Obamacare waivers slip under the radar

By SoundOffSister / February 22, 2011 /

Recently the Department of Health and Human Services granted additional waivers from the burdens of Obamacare, this time to four states.  Count your blessings if you are a state employee, and live in…

Gov. Christie to school administrator … “Let me help you pack”

By Steve McGough / November 14, 2010 /

As school administrator contracts expire in New Jersey, employees will be subject to a salary cap. Of course, if you’re contract is about to expire and you’re making more than the proposed cap, that means a pay cut. To keep the high-paid administrators on staff at the current (or higher) salaries, school boards are suggesting…

Do we need more politicians like New Jersey Governor Christie?

By Steve McGough / May 14, 2010 /

I think… yes. This is a video from a May 10 press conference where a columnist asks Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.) about his confrontational tone. The way I look at it, politics by definition is partisan. That’s the whole idea of politics.

New Jersey lawmakers still want to steal unused gift cards

By Steve McGough / January 3, 2011 /

Last summer, New Jersey ammended the state’s Uniform Unclaimed Property Act, allowing the state to seize (steal) unused money on gift cards. The law was signed by Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.). In November, a judge temporarily struck down the law. How I missed this before, I just don’t know, as is a prime example of actions…

N.J. Democrat: How about $500 per year to exercise 2nd Amendment rights?

By Steve McGough / September 29, 2010 /

Pathetic. Disturbing. Unreal. It’s already totally unacceptable the state of New Jersey severely restricts residents concerning their 2nd Amendment rights, but now a New Jersey state legislator suggests – for $500 per year – the state would reconsider their opinion. They think they can generate tax revenue through the scheme.

Lie to New Jersey Gov. Christie … you goin’ down, down, down

By Steve McGough / August 27, 2010 /

New Jersey Education Commissioner Bret Schundler has been relieved of his duties. Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.) made it a point to note Schundler provided the correct budget figures at a “Race to the Top” presentation in Washington D.C. Did anyone have a camera focused on Schundler when Christie made that claim?

Christie to Tapper: We’re just getting started

By Jim Vicevich / July 27, 2010 /

You either love this guy (if you believe in fiscal conservatism) or you hate him, right lefties? But I have rarely seen the New Jersey Governor not get a reaction. So this clip is for both of you. Plenty to love and plenty to hate.
