Obama Signs Porkulus, Then Says We Must Live Within Our Means

Jobs Creation Bill Rewards States for Paying People Not to Work

Just when you thought the Porkulus fiasco couldn’t get any more convoluted... Today it came out that the bill, which President Obama and the Democrats have been praising for its miraculous job-creating powers in fact pays the states an incentive for the number of people on welfare. The more people... Sign in to see full entry.

Press Calls Passage of Stimulus a "Major Triumph" - But of What?

Only in a world run by liberals would this be described as a “major triumph.” On Friday the 13 th, of all fell omens, the House of Misrepresentatives and the Senate both passed Presidebt Obama’s “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.” The President’s ad hoc fan club, also known as the lamestream...

A Distant Drum of the Coming Revolution

I used to call this blog, Bush is an Idiot?, and I used it to compare the folly of the left with how they portrayed the former president. Since the inauguration of President Obama, I’ve been casting about for a new name for it. I’ve tried The Obama’s own words about “carrying forth the great gift of... Sign in to see full entry.

Idiocy Overtakes Washington and the Press as Porkulus Passes House Vote

America was taken on a trip into Wonderland today. There is no other way to explain it.

Obama Transfers Census to His Chief of Staff

Imagine, if you will, that it is still sometime between January 20, 2001 and January 20, 2008. Imagine that we have gone back in time to when George W. Bush was president and Karl Rove was his chief of staff. Now, imagine this headline: BUSH TRANSFERS AUTHORITY FOR CENSUS TO ROVE!!?????????? You’d... Sign in to see full entry.

President Obama? How About Presidebt Obama?

Thanks to my ham-handed typing, I may have stumbled upon an entirely appropriate nickname for our new president.

About this Blog

In the classic Star Trek episode, The Omega Glory, a primitive people called the Yangs is at war with the ruling government. As the episode progresses, the Yang war drums are heard in increasing volume in the distance until the Yangs finally invade the government city and defeat their oppressors. Their victory won, the Yang chieftain utters a resounding phrase, “That which was ours is ours again!” This blog is now a war drum. I add it to the growing chorus of drums beating in the hills around the city of Washington DC. I do not advocate a revolution of violence and war. But I am joining others in beating our war drums for a peaceful and sweeping revolution at the polls starting in November 2010. This revolution will restore conservatives to power, and that which was ours – liberty, prosperity, restrained government, the rule of law, and personal responsibility - shall be ours again.
