What an election season. Democrats are hardly worth the time to write about anymore, but Republicans are proving to be even worse. They have now been exposed as career politicians with absolutely no loyalty to party, only to interests, and money. Need evidence? Look no further than "war hero" John McCain. Most people that I know were so sickened by the idea of him becoming the party nominee in 2008, that they refused to vote for him, but I, as a loyal Republican, held my nose and did the deed. H...

All the gun control advocates are on all the Sunday shows and some of them might be well meaning, but they are totally misguided. Ask a liberal gun control advocate something like, "what new law would have stopped Eric Harris from sawing off his shotgun on both ends, transforming it into the deadliest close range weapon imaginable?" Since sawing off a shotgun is already a felony in most states and no one is even including the deadly close range shotgun on the list of weapons to be banned, they w...

Keep in mind that the Obamacare mandate was upheld not under the Commerce Clause – but as a “tax.”

Was just watching all of Obama's propaganda on his Youtube channel and I must say it's very good. It's actually top notch. Obama is one of the worst Presidents of my lifetime, but he manages to milk the most out of his few successes while amplifying his personal likability and family with amazing efficiency. So it won't be easy to beat him. Obama has done more campaigning and lavish vacationing then governing, but it really doesn't matter when you have a propaganda machine...

Lately on the internet, I read a lot of people posting political thoughts as if they think they have all the answers to some of the most complex issues. I have opinions too, but I never claim that I'm 100% correct. I know what I read and I try to come to a reasonable conclusion. Many people have about as much expertise in political sciences as my garbageman, only difference? My garbageman might have opinions, but he doesn't consider himself an expert in matters of nuclear proliferation or Russia...

  Looks like Obammy's numbers are totally underwater and reaching fatal levels. One and done buddy.

This picture infuriates me. Look at the way Chicago thug Obama is pointing his finger into the chest of Netanyahu.

  This photo is almost surreal. Who thought it would be a good idea to bring a Presidential seal and teleprompters into a 5th grade classroom? it looks like the President is trying to deliver an address to elementary school children. This guy becomes more laughable and absurd every day.

I'm watching the Steelers vs the Chargers game and I see that I can watch President elect douche at the conclusion on 60 Minutes. It looks like Michell Obama has come out of hiding now that the election is over, I guess if she repeats something like, “America is a mean country in 2008,” it wont really matter very much because her husband has already been elected. I think I will tune in to watch President elect douche to see what he has to say after the game.

I was talking about political issues with a friend on fb and it caused me to decide never to do it again. The friend had posted on the topic of Trump, and a Jewish issue of some kind, I think it was one of those unfounded Trump/Antisemitism attacks, so I gently, or not so gently reminded him that Obama's support in Israel was the lowest of any American President in history. The poll I cited was not tilted or partisan in any way, cause it listed Bill Clinton as the Israeli favorite. So it rea...

I can't take credit for this as I found it out there on the internet. I was amused, so I thought I'd share. A Schumer. In the animal world when a donkey is mated with a mule the result is a jackass. The modern term now for a jackass is a schumer. Unlike a mule, noted to be a dependable hard working animal, in contrast, the schumer is exceedingly belligerent, un-dependable, and spends much of it's time braying at the world. Braying is somewhat of a disgusting sound emitted by a ...

Everything has changed. The internet has changed. Instead of information on the rise, we have a brand of censorship and authoritarianism that is far removed from filtering just mere obscenity. In the name of combating our own alleged racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and any other perceived 'isms' or psychological disorders that offend the sensibilities of so-called progressives, we now have an Orwellian situation where you had better watch not only what you say, but what you think...

A very interesting phenomenon takes place when one goes on Facebook to find liberal friends and family members pouring their livers out with the most vile accusations against people who voted for Trump. They claim a Trump voter was motivated by racism, sexism, and various other offenses they conjure up, or copy and pate from Rachael Maddow and Van Jones, cause they can hardly generate their own thoughts, apparently. They are perfectly comfortable hurling completely unfounded and vile accusati...

Provided nothing dramatic happens at the final foriegn policy debate and no knockout blow is landed... this is the way I see it shaking out. Obama has been campaigning in Ohio for the last 5 years in between rounds of golf, vacationing, demonizing Bush, and patting himself on the back for exacerbating Americas problems, so I think he has a pretty good foothold on the State, so I give it to him, but he is losing Wisconsin and New Hampshire quickly, and that provides Ryan/ Romney another pa...

The Republican field is somewhat weak, and right now it may seem somewhat dysfunctional, but I've come to the conclusion that I, and everyone else have been too picky on which candidate is best. All the Republicans, with the exception of Paul, have most of the same beliefs and at this point I don't care which one gets the nod. If the election were between Obama and a kid from college who got 98% on his last civics exam I would take the kid. I would have more optimism and hope that the...
