The Wisconsin recall efforts

A really bad day for labor unions in Wisconsin.  Yeah … that makes me so sad.  The labor unions and the Democrats needed to win three of the six recall elections in order to regain control of the Wisconsin Senate.  They won two.  Now two Democrat state senators --- you ...

The Congressional Budget II

The House is poised to approve a spending bill for next year that cuts the budget of Congress by over 6 percent, as lawmakers try to show the voters back home that they understand the need for belt tightening in the halls of Congress. "Wasting taxpayer dollars sends the wrong ...

Some refreshing government news

Perhaps Democrats in Minnesota could learn a lesson from states like Ohio and Wisconsin.  Let’s start in Wisconsin.  Democrats and union members battled for months against Gov. Scott Walker’s bill to curtail the collective bargaining powers of some government employees.  How is that working out for Wisconsin? The Kaukauna School ...

Protesters rally at near the Georgia Capitol in response to state policies targeting illegal immigration.

Interesting headline

In the wake of yet ANOTHER federal judge’s smack down of a state’s (this time Georgia) attempt to enforce immigration laws the federal government refuses to enforce, some of Georgia’s finest illegals decided to have a little protest in downtown Atlanta.  Not just a protest – they decided it would ...

Pensions in da Nuze

We have two different government pension stories to highlight here.  So let’s start in San Francisco, where the average city government retiree earns an annual pension of $46,272.  If you worked 30 years in city government, that figure looks more like $76,981.  Those retiring from the Police Department are looking ...

Funny Or Over the Line?

This campaign ad from California is all over the internets this afternoon. Do you think the imagery is a bit over the line or is all fair in love and politics? The creator is unapologetic. It's a little racy and probably NOT SAFE FOR WORK. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZ3B8WvVjL4

Should the Government Ban Smoking in Cars With Children?

A Democrat Assemblyman in New York wants to pass a bill that would ban adults from smoking in cars when children are present (under the age of 14).  Violators would be fined up to $100.  Amen.  This should be considered an assault.  That’ll stir the pudding!

A Tax On Stupidity

Now here’s something I can definitely support … I love the lottery.  No, not because I play it but because it is a tax on stupidity.  So in these tough economic times, states are looking for ways to increase their revenue.  Online lotteries are becoming a popular way to increase ...

Anthony Weiner-Gate

Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) spent another day under the media microscope on Wednesday over who sent a photograph on his Twitter account to a much younger woman, as the Democratic Congressman again sidestepped some basic questions about his story. In the process, the news media on Capitol Hill began to ...

Paul Ryan Town Hall

Paul Ryan's town hall in Kenosha, WI yesterday didn't go so well. What could he have done differently? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fT2AdXGJgE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIpM2lzlcZs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iyo5XY0nins http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUmXzlMxQcI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3cdMpy7PFc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gew8anYkGMY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_ejRu_zwzU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtmQgdCRzPQ
