Priorities…

Pew Research releases every so often a poll of what Americans consider priorities for the country. Here's what I would find amusing if it weren't so sad: In the president's first term, his policies weakened the economy, weakened the job situation (for every job created, more than 20 people went on … [Read more...]

So God made a Liberal…

If you find yourself on the Conservative end of the political spectrum, this is pretty amusing.  If not, you'll roll your eyes and probably won't finish watching it, because it won't be funny to you.  Either way, Conservatives: enjoy it.  Liberals: learn to laugh at yourselves once in a while. … [Read more...]

Proud Democrat indeed…

I am willing to give the benefit of the doubt and assume that this is someone posing as a "Proud Democrat".  Of course it would be easier to give that benefit if I didn't know people (not necessarily Democrats) who were this... let's just say, special. Either way, this person cancels out someone's … [Read more...]

On the road to Utopia

I snapped these photos whilst out and about not long ago.  It really sheds light on the mindset of the person who would re-elect President Obama to a second term given the abysmal conditions with which we find our nation.  Mind you, the bumper stickers have been on this vehicle for at least three … [Read more...]

This is what you voted for

It goes without saying that I still am flabbergasted that President Obama won re-election despite his shoddy handling of the economy.  But here's a look at just how shoddy he he's been.  This is what you voted for. 1 “Long-term unemployed” means for over 26 weeks; data for January 2009 and … [Read more...]

NY Democrats oppose preventing welfare being spent on alcohol, porn, and other vices

As if I needed yet another reason to dislike Democrats: (NY Post) -- Democratic state lawmakers, led by Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, have blocked welfare-reform legislation that would end “sinful spending” by preventing people receiving government benefits from withdrawing taxpayer-funded cash … [Read more...]

Taxing the poor

For all the hub-bub we hear about taxing the rich, we routinely overlook the degree to which the poor are taxed.  The "taxes" on the poor, however, aren't generally thought of as taxes on the poor.  What I'm talking about is state run lotteries and cigarette taxes.  Of course, these revenues aren't … [Read more...]

President Obama: Let them eat cake

Just yesterday #WhyIsMyPaycheckLowerThisWeek was trending on Twitter for a while.  It's no secret why that is, the President just signed a bill effectively raising taxes on the "richest" 77% of Americans (basically anyone with a job).  The fact that every working family is feeling the pinch of the … [Read more...]

President Obama: Warrior for the middle class…maybe

For all the talk about Democrats generally, and the President specifically being champions for the middle class, they refused to even vote on a bill which would have exempted 99% of American taxpayers from the looming "fiscal cliff".  No, instead, before they would finally support a tax increase … [Read more...]

Week in Review

Big Mistake: Fast food workers demand $15/hr, full-time, and benefits

Having been inundated with campaign ads decrying the wealthy, who seemingly got their riches at the expense of the poor, low-wage workers are putting their collective foot down.  First it was Walmart employees who threatened to walk out on the retail giant's busiest day of the year, Black Friday. … [Read more...]

UPDATE: Teacher’s union: the rich urinate on the poor

Despite record unemployment, debt, deficits, and spending President Barack Obama won re-election.  How was this possible?  The answer is simple really.  He was able to convince enough people that the message offered in this video is … [Read more...]

Why demonize the rich? I think I know why

The liberal message of tax the rich has been in high gear for the past three to four years, and ramped up significantly over the course of the presidential campaign season.  The mantra that the wealthy don't pay enough, let alone their "fair share" is inescapable.  Though I'm not one to buy into … [Read more...]

Fun with Twitter: Debating Liberals

As far back as I can remember, I've always found some joy in annoying smug people.  They can be easily found hanging around websites like the Daily Kos, MSNBC, Democratic Underground, Think Progress... seeing a pattern here?  I happened across a tweet made by MSNBC, you know the kind: propaganda … [Read more...]
