    Yesterday I made a decision that will affect my personal buying habits and choices. I have realized that American unions do so much political harm these days and I have decided to do whatever I can to avoid purchasing any union made product or service. Since they have done so much to push socialism in this country, I figure it's high time that entrepreneurial rugged individuals like myself stop supporting them. Many of us avoid Chinese made items while ignoring our own domestic Marxists. It's time for a change they weren't expecting.
  • Left Wingers Invading Internet Forums?

    I have noticed an increase in liberals, left-wingers, progressives, socialists, whatever else they might be called, posting on various internet forums. These are usually not politically focused forums. They never seem to post anything regarding the actual theme of these forums, instead they just post Democrat talking points. When they get banned, a new one registers within a couple of days. Has anybody heard of any left-wing organizations that might be behind this sort of activity?

    WASHINGTON — House Minority Leader John Boehner, in a shockingly blunt admission Tuesday night to a small group of Republicans, called the immigration bill praised by congressional leaders and the White House a 'piece of s---," FOX News confirmed Wednesday.
  • What happened to KSFO Morning Host Lee Rodgers?

    Does anyone know what happened to Lee Rodgers this morning on KSFO? He was in the middle of asking Jed Babbin a question then his mic went silent. He did not come back on the air the rest of the show. Melanie Morgan and Officer Vic (Tom Benner) continued on like the seasoned professionals they are, but I am concerned. I hope he's OK.

    On a trip up highway 29 through the Napa valley yesterday, I noticed quite a few large campaign signs for Mike Thompson next to the highway on the vineyards of several wineries. While I believe they have every right in the world to support any candidate they wish, I do believe that people need to know who is being supported with their wine buying dollars. If you buy wine from Sutter Home, Robert Mondavi, Corison Winery, Rutherford Grove, or Cosentino Winery, just to single out a few, you are helping to re-elect Baghdad Bootlick Mike Thompson.

    STARKE, Fla. (AP) - A man who was convicted of a double murder, only to have his death sentence overturned, was executed Wednesday for another slaying - the 1976 stabbing death of fellow prison inmate. Bennie Demps, 49, was put to death for the stabbing of Alfred Sturgis, who was attacked in his cell. The dying Sturgis told a prison guard that Demps and another inmate had held him down while a third inmate stabbed him. ``This is not an execution, this is murder,'' Demps said before his lethal injection. ``I am an innocent man.'' Demps, 49, said he was ...
  • How the 2nd Amendment Kept Bill Clinton President

    Many people have odd ideas about the purpose for the 2nd amendment to the constitution of the United States. Some think it protects hunting rights. Some even think it only establishes the National Guard. To find the true reason that our founding fathers put this civil right second only to freedom of speech, religion, and assembly, let's try a few "what ifs" based on an almost real world worst case scenario. Let's take Dr. Peabody's "Way-Back Machine" to 1992. Bill Clinton is still a new and popular president. Both the House of Representatives and the Senate are Democrat controlled. ...
