STAY OUT OF SYRIA

Written on Tuesday, September 3, 2013 by Nick Adams “America is great because America is good.

Government Hypocrisy – Compliant Media

The Constitution is immaterial.  President Obama has to save face by bombing Syria – they crossed the line he set.  Of course, we don’t know who crossed the line.  Some media outlets report it could have been the rebels who used weapons of mass destruction.  Regardless, there are no sides left to support.  Al Qaeda […]

MUST READ: Who Says the GOP Doesn’t Have an Alternative to Obamacare….NOT SO (Two Plans included)

Why Barack Obama Is the World’s Worst Boyfriend

The Great Obama Depression

WASHINGTON, August 3, 2013 — A White House spokesman called July’s 7.4 percent unemployment rate proof that “the U.S. economy is continuing to recover from the worst downturn since the Great Depression.” He said it with a straight face.

If the 2009 Town Halls were bad for Democrats, just wait

Congressional Liars Repeatedly Protect Obamacare

Published Mon, Jul 29th, 2013   Floyd Brown, Chief Political Analyst I love the Tea Party members of Congress.

Racism under every bush-if you want it there
