About 8,000 individuals currently working on the America space program will lose their jobs now that the space shuttle program has ended. As many as 1,500 will be fired as soon as Friday. The program has been scheduled to end for quite some time, but the Obama Administration went further in blocking the successor program [...]

The Canton, Ohio, police officer who literally threatened to kill an American citizen for legally carrying a weapon has been suspended pending investigation, Canton Police Chief Dean McKimm has said. In a statement, McKimm says the officer has been relieved of all duties and the case has been forwarded to Internal Affairs for an investigation. [...]

Cop Threatens to Execute Citizen Legally Carrying Weapon

Ohio law requires concealed-carry permit holders to notify police of their status upon being stopped. Reasonable enough, and that’s probably why legal carrier William attempted multiple times to notify a Canton police officer of just that. Only the officer didn’t want to hear about his concealed-carry permit…until he did. Then the officer literally threatened to [...]

Poll: Plurality Say Spending Cuts Create Jobs

And they’d be right. Because when the nation’s fiscal future is more secure, and when the government is less involved in the private sector, you encourage investment and corporate expansion. You also reduce the need for taxes, freeing up money to be spent or invested in the market. Look at Texas. The state has focused [...]

Obama Has No Legitimacy on Debt Limit Debate

21. July 2011

2 Comments

In 2006, then-Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill) took to the floor of the United States Senate to explain his opposition to raising the national debt ceiling yet again: The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t [...]

Update on Twitter’s Partisan Suspension Story

21. July 2011

An update to this post. Twitter still hasn’t explained why it suddenly and inexplicably shutdown accounts belonging to conservative activists and organizations a few days ago. Shutdown are accounts belonging to conservative groups Empower Texans and AgendaWise. Additionally, employees for those groups have found their personal accounts suspended — also without explanation or warning. Twitter [...]

Twitter Shuts Down Conservative Accounts

20. July 2011

1 Comment

Very troublesome. A conservative group called Empower Texans has discovered not only its main Twitter account shut down, but also the accounts of every single employee of the group. All of them gone. Without explanation. Without warning. Only Twitter itself can shutdown accounts. So either the company automatically did so because of too many “spam” [...]

Politico’s Palin Reporter to Work for Democrats

20. July 2011

1 Comment

Just making it official. A Politico reporter who often penned stories about Sarah Palin and other Republicans has quit journalism to work with the Democratic Party in Arizona, sources tell The Daily Caller. That reporter, Andy Barr, has covered national politics for the publication since 2008. Barr leaving to help elect Democrats will likely fan [...]

Michelle Obama Leads More Americans to Eat Burgers, Fries

20. July 2011

1 Comment

This must really eat (get it?) away at the vegan/green movement. It turns out Michelle “I can’t stop eating french fries.” Obama’s recent trip to the Shake Shack has resulted in an uptick of customers to the high-calorie eatery. Probably not her intended effect. Obama Foodarama is reporting that Shake Shack and Eatonville are reporting [...]

UN Considers “Green Helmet” Military to Combat Climate Change Effects

The unelected globalist bureaucrats have to take your money, infringe on your rights, and establish new international military for your own good. To save the world, you see. And if you don’t give them more money and power, and if you refuse to redistribute your money? Well, you’re a flat-earther who hates polar bears and [...]
