Republicans and Immigration Reform
The Republican position on immigration reform is yet unclear. Some (very loud) elements of the base staunchly support deportation of Latin American immigrants in the country without permission. Others in the party support an expedited naturalization process for those already inside the country.
The latter of these two views - if adopted by the party - could help ensure the GOP would retake and retain the House and Senate for the foreseeable future, while the former stance could be the one thing that could possibly derail the widely anticipated GOP landslide victory in the upcoming mid-term elections in November.

Boehner Threatens to Defund Obamacare if GOP Wins House
As predicted on this site and by this author, House Minority leader John Boehner has now stated on the record the should Republicans gain back power in the House of Representatives, that they would retroactively kill Obamacare by refusing to fund it.
Real Vote on Obamacare Takes Place this November
What House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democrats in the House and Senate do (or don't do) regarding President Obama's healthcare reform proposal (commonly referred to as "Obamacare") is immaterial as to whether or not the bill (assuming one is passed) is ever actually implemented. The only real vote on Obamacare will take place this coming November, and it will be voted on by the American people themselves...
The REPUBLICANS Are To Blame For America's Current Mess!
Despite the fact that liberal Democrats have controlled the American Government for the past three years (since everything started going down the toilet), I thought I'd humor myself and put myself in their (the left's) shoes, and attempt to rationalize a way to blame the Republicans for the Democrats' dirty deeds...
Senator Vitter on Congressman Charlie Melancon's Stimulus Vote
Charlie Melancon not only voted in favor of President Obama's abysmal failure of a stimulus package, he went so far as to say it was "the right thing to do" so as "not to embarrass President Obama."
Now, instead of admitting that supporting a multi-trillion dollar spending bill was bad for our state and country, Melancon and his liberal friends in Congress are attacking Senator Vitter for having the intestinal fortitude to stand up to Reid and Pelosi and vote against the bill in the interests of Louisiana.
GOP Senate Victory in Massachusetts a Rejection of Democrat Arrogance
Republican Scott Brown's victory in the Massachusetts special election to fill the late Senator Ted Kennedy's open seat was absolutely and without a doubt a rejection of the arrogance and delusional grandeur of people like Nancy Pelosi, Charles "Chuck" Shumer, Rahm Emmanuel, Harry Reid and yes, even President Barack Obama...
Senator David Vitter: Put the American Government on a Real Budget Now
Louisianans and Americans across the country are tightening their family budgets and reducing their spending. President Obama and the liberal friends of Charlie Melancon are not following the example of American families reducing spending, and are instead proposing to grow the government and spend more than at any time in American history.
Sarah Palin's Book "Going Rogue" Sells 300,000 Copies in One Day!
According to HarperCollins, the publisher of Sarah Palin's new book "Going Rogue: An American Life", Palin's book sold more than 300,000 copies during the first day it was available for purchase on store shelves.
Were John McCain and Sarah Palin really the best the GOP had to offer?
Were John McCain and Sarah Palin really the best available candidates to head up the Republican party's 2008 Presidential ticket? Was the GOP even playing to win in 2008? If not, what exactly were they trying to accomplish?
Did ACORN Steal the 2008 Presidential Election
A recent poll suggests a majority of Republican voters believe that Barack Obama did not legitimately win last November's presidential election due to acts of mass voter fraud committed by ACORN. While I believe ACORN is a criminal organization that must be dealt with, Republicans should take a good look in the mirror because even without ACORN's vote fraud efforts, Obama would almost certainly still have won the election, for reasons I will explain below...
Bernard Madoff's Alter-Ego... Francisco d’Anconia?
Does Bernard Madoff have an alter-ego? The question has become relevant in the wake of Madoff's Ponzi Scheme, which defrauded billions from investors. He was recently sentenced to 150 years in prison for his massive scheme which took money from new investors to pay old ones while no actual investments were being made. When Madoff's pyramid collapsed, the investors were ruined.
Francisco Domingo Carlos Andres Sebastian d'Anconia is the character from Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" who among other things, was known for his savvy investments and his great money-making abilities. He pilfered many a wealthy customer by persuading them to invest into the San Sebastian Mines, a copper mining project in Mexico named for one of his Spanish ancestors.
Could it be that Madoff had motives other than greed? Is there more to coincidence between the striking similarities between the Madoff scandal and the mining misadventures of the protagonist of the magnum opus of Bernie Madoff's close friend Alan Greenspan's close friend Ayn Rand?
A Republican's Take on Same-Sex Marriage
The following post was written in response to an article appearing at Mixx.com discussing the Republican Party's position on the issue of same-sex marriage, in light of gay marriage-opponent Carrie Prejean's recent revelations of posing nude in photographs and possibly even being involved in a rumored sex video.
The KGB Media and the Communist Big Education-Racket
The Boston Globe supposedly "inadvertently" posted an interactive application providing live coverage of exit-polling results that not surprisingly, predicted a Martha Coakley (the democrat) victory a full eight hours before the polls closed. Republican Scott Brown won the election handily once all the results were in and the ballots counted.
This article looks into the reasons why the media and education system are so intellectually dishonest and loyal to a Soviet agenda.
Alan Keyes: U.S. Survival Hinges on Americans' Ability to Stop Obama
In the words of former U.S. Presidential Candidate Alan Keyes:
"Obama is a radical communist. And I think it's becoming clear. That's what I told people in Illinois and now everybody realizes it's true. He's going to destroy this country, and we're either going to stop him or the United States of America is going to cease to exist."
Obama's FDA Targeting Limbaugh Advertisers
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under the leadership of President Barack Obama has taken an unprecedented move in targeting political opponents with unfounded and politically motivated attacks reminiscent of Stalinist Russia.
Will the Public Option cover Waahmbulance emergencies?
I cannot remember another Presidential Administration that has been as insecure as this one. Can they not handle ANY criticism? Good grief, it's like watching a child on a playground who goes crying to mommy every time another kid does something he doesn't like.
If the "Public Option" being tossed around by the democrats in the debate over healthcare reform includes emergency calls to the Wahmbulance, the American taxpayers are going to be in for a very long couple of years...
Branches of the American Government
The American Government was founded upon the principles of federalism, decentralization of power and division of government. The U.S. Government is broken down into three primary branches: The Executive Branch, The Legislative Branch and The Judicial Branch. Each branch of the government has its own set of powers, checks, balances and responsibilities...
ACORN: A Downright Criminal Organization
ACORN in principle bears little difference to the organized families of the 1920's, and the fact that the President of the United States has been heavily involved with the modern-day mafia is a fact this author finds to be of particular disturbance.
Is President Obama Destroying Jobs to Advance Socialized Healthcare?
The fact is that just six months since President Barack Obama seized control of the American Government, there are millions more unemployed now than there were during the very worst of the Bush years (either Bush, three terms combined versus six months). As a direct result of the millions of jobs the president has helped destroy, there are now millions of people more who are now without employer-provided health insurance. This is absolutely and unequivocally not a coincidence.

Honduras Crisis: A Fleeting Moment of Sanity
Armando Valladares, former U.S. Ambassador to the Human Rights Commission of the United Nations, resigned from his position as Secretary General of the Human Rights Foundation, due to stanch disagreement with the organization's stance on Honduras.
