President Barack Obama just outlined steps he and other G-20 world leaders at the Pittsburgh Summit 2009 have decided to take to change the world in many economic areas, including energy. Most notable to me was his mention of “phasing out fossil fuel subsidies.” If you think that eliminating subsidies is getting rid of some [...]

Amidst fears of the H1N1 virus (a.k.a., “Swine Flu”), many people are mistakenly shying away from anything related to pigs. In the latest video by Sweet Tea Films, trailer park resident “Tavin Dillard” (Joel Berry) takes a different approach, extolling the virtues of the most-aromatic member of “The Other White Meat” family.

Video Explains Motivation for Tea Parties
March 1st, 2009 · No Comments
Thanks to Doug Ross’ Link Kerplosion, I had the chance to view this video, entitled “Why Are People Throwing Tea Parties?” that uses word pictures and music to tell the story of what’s wrong in America, thanks mostly to President Barack Obama and members of the Democrat-controlled Congress. Out-of control spending on pork-laden stimulus packages [...]

‘Economic Stimulus’ Passes on Friday the 13th
February 14th, 2009 · 5 Comments
I’ve never been a big fan of horror films, but a lot of similarities exist between history’s most-successful horror-flick franchise, “Friday the 13th,” and the so-called “Economic Stimulus Package” approved by both houses of Congress on Friday the 13th and expected to be signed by President Barack Obama next week. POOR REVIEWS In much the [...]

Wise Words Deserve Place in Public Square

“Those who cannot remember the past, are condemned to repeat it.” Thanks to the unprecedented swiftness with which President Barack Obama and Congressional Democrats have moved in an attempt to pass the so-called “Economic Stimulus Package,” the words of Spanish-born American philosopher George Santayana (above) seem to have found a permanent home on the “tip” [...]

Media Double-Standard Flourishes in Obama Era
February 12th, 2009 · 1 Comment
They dare not question President Barack Obama when he says one thing and does another. They do not challenge him on tough issues. Life in the Obama Era is full of double-standard journalism, thanks to pucker-lipped mainstream media types like MSNBC’s Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann. This double standard surfaced for the first time on [...]
