During the past month, I’ve published four posts about the Kerry-Boxer climate change bill and the detrimental impact it will have on the country if passed. Today, I offer two videos from the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee hearings on the Kerry-Boxer climate change bill. If you’re like me, they will make you wonder [...]

Okay, so it’s not precisely related to health care reform, arguably the hottest political topic of the day, but it is funny, courtesy my friend, Curtis D. Tucker, the world-famous “sneaker-wearing entrepreneurial cartoonist internet guy” from my hometown of Enid, Okla.

With ‘Cash for Clunkers’ Costing Taxpayers $24K Per Vehicle, How Much Will ObamaCare Cost Us?
October 29th, 2009 · No Comments
Visit the federal government web site for the recently-concluded “Cash for Clunkers” program and you’ll find the program described as “enormously successful” (see graphic above). Contrary to that claim, however, Edmunds.com research revealed yesterday that the program, which enabled a car buyer to pay as much as $4,500 less for a new vehicle, actually cost [...]

Could Health Care Debate Yield Repeat of 1994?
October 29th, 2009 · No Comments
Remember what happened the last time Democrats tried to take over control of the nation’s health care system? Some three-dozen members of Congress lost their jobs as a result of the 1994 election.

Taxpayers Footing Bill for Free Phone Service
October 28th, 2009 · 3 Comments
While driving home from the airport tonight, I was listening to The Dana Show on 97.1 FM Talk in St. Louis and heard conservative talk show host Dana Loesch expressing her disgust about a free, government-support phone service for people on the public dole. Then, as soon as I got home, I found an e-mail [...]

While making a guest appearance this morning on The Diane Jones Show, a talk radio program that airs on KLPW-AM 1220 in the St. Louis area, I was asked to discuss the heated special election race in New York’s 23rd Congressional District.

Hump Day Humor: Palm Pilots by David Donar
October 28th, 2009 · No Comments
Almost daily, it seems a new explanation surfaces as a possible explanation for the behavior of two Northwest Airlines pilots whose aircraft overshot the runway at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport by 100 miles before turning around and landing safely. Were they sleeping, arguing or preoccupied with surfing the internet on their laptops? NWA already [...]
