Obama has divided our country as no other president in history has done. The signs were there during the campaign, but too many were caught up in his aura. His polarizing finally became obvious with the 'teachable moment' and the police who acted 'stupidly'. In his July 2009 speech (doesn't give press conferences), he undeniably played the race card, which he…

"We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America"! How naïve was America when Barack Hussein Obama shouted those words on the brink of his election. What an education we have had in the past tumultuous 18 months, with a new transformation occurring on an almost daily basis. It has been quite a ride, reminding me of the Disneyland Tea Cup ride where I watched my little boy lose his cookies. As disturbing as this ride as been, you have to admit --…

The best way to catch a fox is to understand their lay of the land. Obama is one crafty dude, not that intelligent, but very cunning. By now, we know how well he sets the stage: race baiting; strawmen à la the big bad banks, the awful insurance companies, those thieving pharmaceuticals, and let's not forget Goldman Sachs, who single-handedly caused the economic downfall of 2008. Strawmen.

WHAT MOTIVATES OBAMA: LEFTIST TURNOUT…

When I listen to Obama lately, or even Eric Holder, it is so apparent how negative and angry they are. Listening to Holder last night, making his grand appearance at the capture of the latest Islamic terrorist (as if he had anything to do with it), my heart was saddened. How long has it been since we have heard praise, good will, blessings, and above all -- encouragement from our leaders? This administration is pathetic when it comes to leadership, foreign or…

An obvious reason why the Left resorts to accusations is because they cannot debate on facts. They lose every time. So many of the Tea Partiers have lived through a few recessions, and have learned that entitlements are the main cause, in one way or another. The Left does not want to hear this, so they attack the truth tellers with name calling. The media has gone so far left, they are complicit in perpetuating the lies.

The Real Reason Liberals Accuse Tea Partiers of…

Now that the Democratic Party is back in power, it's beginning to feel like the 1960's all over again. Depending on which side of the fence you resided at the time, free love or responsibility, there is one outcome worth noting -- it turned the tide on respect.

WHY LEFT TALKS ABOUT "WHITE" TEA PARTIERS

We will see what the Left most fears: blacks and Hispanics at tea…

Not enough can be said about this coming November, and the closer it gets the more excited I get. Every once in awhile, something good this way comes, and sharing is what it's all about.

One interesting facet of these elections -- notice how some in our fickle congress have changed their profile? All of a sudden McCain is tough on immigration, Lindsey Graham-nesty is re-thinking Cap & Trade, Collins is still trying to decide whether she is conservative to not, but puts up a…

As we listen to Obama's lastest cries again for "civility" in order to pass another of his power grabs, it reminds me of the cries "Bush lied, people died", and other horrific statements. It's another weak attempt to bury over a year of polarization, and is the unveiling of a man in…

Nobody plays the strawman game better than Barack Hussein Obama. We've had a bellyful of his strawman speeches since he began campaigning, and he has ebellished this speechification since his inauguration. This week we was at his finest, using Wall Street and big businesses as his current target, and all the while they're sharing the same bed, along with the news media as their cover.

THE FATAL FLAWS OF THE WALL STREET BAILOUT…

America is waking up, but is the damage done so far irreparable? I'd like to think better late than never, but there's a lot of hard work ahead in order to keep our country on its intended track as laid out by our Founding Fathers. The biggest immediate task is to carefully choose constitutional conservatives for both houses this coming November -- in SIX months.

WHO YOU GONNA TRUST?

We need more distrust of government for the very good reason... …

As Obama blames Wall Street for the demise of our ecomony, truth be told by those who dare, this demise started with Jimmy Carter's Community Reinvestment Act of 1977; Clinton's doubling down in the 90s; the initiation of the "everyone has a right to a house" mentality whether they can pay for it or not; Barney Frank bellowing fannie mae and freddie mac are "…

This Friday Senate Bill 3217, the Restoring American Financial Stability Act of 2010, introduced by Democrat Senator Chris Dodd of Connecticut, is set to hit the Senate floor.

SENATE SET TO RAM THROUGH ANOTHER BAD BILL

This Fri, Obama's Financial Reform (HA!) to hit Senate floor…

It goes without saying, the November 2010 elections are critical. One of the races that has been exciting to watch is the battle between my hero, Marco Rubio, and the sleezy Charlie Crist. Crist had such a lead in the beginning, some 30 points, and he wallowed in it with his cocky I-can't-be-beat attitude. Now that the wheels have fallen off, we can see his true colors.

The second annual Tax Day Tea Party of 2010 was held in rallys across America yesterday without incident, racial slurs, spitting, or violence -- trash, alcohol, and drug free. I was privileged to attend the Monterey Tea Party Patriots Rally across from Dennis the Menace Playground, which was broadcast live by Mark Carbonero on KION 1460 FM radio who estimated was attended by 400-600 patriots, and also a local news station. Contrary to the biased New York Times recent poll, there were…

It was one of those nights, not paying much attention, when I heard -- "and my next guest is Jon Voight!" Being a lifelong fan, I was glued and elated to have caught this special moment. Pajamas Media was also impressed enough to include it in their superb collection of great works.

A LETTER TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FROM JON VOIGHT

A call for the American people…

If you have studied Ancient History, World History and American History, that gnawing feeling in the pit of your stomach about now should be a full blown ulcer. Although the signs were there for people to investigate, or ignore, Obama's dirty little secret has painfully reared its ugly head. Joe the Plumber was right, and the man is "…

As one of the original TEA Party members, it has been thrilling to see so many millions of Americans stand up and let their voices be heard -- a first for most, frightening for some, and duty-bound for all. Our inspiration comes from a solid foundation in our heritage, the knowledge of how this great nation came to be and for which it stands. For me personally, my Grandfather (the creator of our patriotic Uncle Sam) gave me the courage to finally speak out. If he could do it so eloquently,…
