The coming economic meltdown

By Jim Vicevich / May 11, 2009 /

Steve posted earlier on the economy and the $800 billion stimulus package that appears to be doing nothing to lower unemployment. His biggest fear is that the Democrats will use this to go back and request more money. A legitimate fear to be sure BUT THAT IS NOT my biggest fear.

Gingrich suggests third party rebellion in 2012

By Steve McGough / April 2, 2009 /

Can the American political system handle third party? It’s pretty clear voters have been split between Republicans and Democrats during the past 10 years.

Chris Christie made the comment yesterday that Newt was damaged goods and specifically mentioned the 1997 ethics charges when he was speaker of the US House of Representatives. I’ve got a big problem with this, but I guess everyone is worried about perception, since nobody seems interested…
