By Paul R. Hollrah, Guest Blogger Republicans are, generally speaking, wonderful people. But what I dislike most about them is their inability to address the most-critical issues of our time in such a way that the “average man” can know and make sense of them… in the same way that Gov. Chris Christie is able [...]

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. Second, outside events have to be taken into account before you [...]

By Paul R. Hollrah, Guest Blogger Just imagine for a moment that you are Barack Obama… I know it’s distasteful, but do it anyway… and assume that your number one goal, politically, is to make it possible for your party to win U.S. elections in perpetuity, with little or no chance of a strong challenge [...]

I’ve developed a keen interest in a certain seven-term incumbent Republican RINO Republican congresswoman during the past four weeks.

During her last-three [...]
