Americans frustrated that Obama can?t force Congress to do his will?
2012-02-07 08:00:00
Wonder how Matt Lauer and his colleagues in the legacy media would have reacted had George W. Bush expressed a similar frustration: I think this is the nature of being President.

2011-05-20 18:00:00
A recent Gallup poll shows that for the first time ever, a majority of Americans favor legal gay marriage. Since 1996 Gallup has been asking the same question: Do you think that marriages between same-sex couples should or should not be recognized by the law as valid, with the same rights as traditional marriages?

PRESS RELEASEAmericans United for Separation of Church and StateOctober 8, 2010Americans United for Separation of Church and State has asked a federal appeals court to find the congressionally mandated National Day of Prayer unconstitutional.In a friend-of-the-court brief filed with the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, Americans United urged the panel of judges to affirm a lower court decision that held the National Day of Prayer statute unconstitutional.In April, U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb of the Western District of Wisconsin ruled that the federal law violates the constitutional separation of church and state.

2010-10-01 03:20:00
For many Americans, today is a sad day. For 240,000 people, it might just be their last day on the job. Why?  They're employed through the TANF emergency fund - a government subsidized jobs program that's put 26,000 people to work in our state.

On June 9, the Chicago City Council voted to boycott companies from Arizona because of that state's decision to institute its "tough new immigration law," as the Sun-Times puts it....

We get taxed immediately but none of these wonderful "benefits" actually kick in for FOUR YEARS! So even if you liked this communist paradise you won't get it for almost half the decade. It makes you wonder... how many dead people will Democrats be responsible for since this bill doesn't kick in for so long, eh? These are the things that Democrats want in a nationalized healthcare bill. These are the things that WILL end up passed if ANY part of Obamacare is passed. This will materially...

2010-01-15 13:21:00
  Lately I've been having a few conservative Republicans follow me on Twitter. For the life of me I can't figure out why because my opinions are so far to the left even Beyonce couldn't sing the "Irreplaceable" lyrics to my views--to the left, to the left, everything I believe is an idea to the left. Initially I thought the conservative Tweeters may have the same mindset of my grandfather--always pay attention to your enemy, which is why he just loves to watch FOX News. He genuinely believes we have to know their wacko views. To each his own.   But what caught my attention was one of my favorite Twitter users who made the following comment: "conservative.republican.democr-at. --...
