Democrats Ignore Basic Economic Facts
October 7th, 2010 · 1 Comment
By Foster Friess, Guest Blogger Democrats are fond of talking about the Clinton era budget surplus President George W. Bush “squandered” and the terrible financial mess President Barack Obama “inherited.” Both arguments ignore a few basic facts. First, presidents don’t control spending, Congress does.

Black Conservative Touts Ronald Reagan Values (Update)
April 6th, 2010 · 1 Comment
Lloyd Marcus makes it a point to tell audiences that he is not an African-American; instead, he says, “I’m an American.” And that’s exactly what he did when he took the stage to open the Tea Party Express III rally Monday afternoon in St. Charles, Mo. After entertaining the crowd of more than 500 conservatives [...]

December 29th, 2009 · 8 Comments
After learning recently that President Barack Obama had, on Dec. 17, quietly amended Executive Order 12425, I decided to find out what impact, if any, it might have on Americans. At first blind to the potential ramifications of the amendment, I was startled at what I found once the pieces of this disturbing political puzzle [...]
