Democrat Economic Policies a Total Failure – Speaker Pelosi
No, she hasn’t had the guts or integrity to admit it. But her words of January 25 say precisely that.

Congress Seeks to Slash Smoking While Raking In Cigarette Tax Revenues
Only in Washington would this make any sense. Government is as addicted to cigarettes as the most hooked multi-pack-per-day chain smoker. Not to the nicotine, mind you. To the taxes. As smoking has become more and more politically incorrect, Government at all levels has imposed tax after tax on...

Obama: 3% of Population Shouldn’t Use So Much Energy
President Obama has been spouting the typical leftist guilt trip about how America, with only three percent of the world’s population, should not use so much of its energy. Let’s abandon common sense for a moment and assume that this parallel is actually legitimate. If it is, then does it follow...

Secretary of Energy Stephen Chu has an eminently practical solution for “global warming.” Something anyone who owns a building can do.

Just What America Wants: The Obamamobile!

Biden Blows Cover on Vice-Presidential Bunker
The United States used to have a secret bunker in which the Vice President would be hidden in case of national emergency. Oh, the bunker is still there.
