THROW HIM IN THE BRIAR PATCH

The attacks on the Godfather of Talk Radio (that would be Rush Limbaugh) are stepping up ... and they're coming from all sides! First .. and I think I can speak for many of my talk radio colleagues here .. we couldn't be more thrilled: Not because Limbaugh is under ...

GOVERNMENT VS. PRIVATE SECTOR

I read an alarming statistic recently .. parts of the United Kingdom are becoming so heavily dependent on government spending that the private sector is generating less than one-third of the regional economy. A new analysis found that the government's share of output and expenditure is more than 60% in ...

WELL .. THAT'S ABOUT IT FOR ME AND STARBUCKS

I drink decaf. Can you imagine my show if I was hooked on caffeine? Now Starbucks has decided that they're going to stop brewing decaf in the afternoons. That's it. It's OK though, I think the balance on my Starbucks card is about 46 cents.

STILL DON'T BELIEVE ME?

If you don't believe me when I say that government spending isn't going to stimulate the economy, you must believe the Heritage Foundation. Now this report is a bit long, but let me bring you some of the highlights .. this information is available to your Congressmen and Senators. Too ...

ACORN BACK IN THE NEWS

During the election, we heard a lot of stories about one particularly corrupt organization known as ACORN -- Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

Here's a real shocker. This economic stimulus plan will end up costing more than $1 trillion when you calculate interest costs. Here comes TARP Two! The fun never ends. The Georgia peanut processor knew their products had salmonella. They shipped the products anyway. Wouldn't you think that criminal prosecution would ...

TAX CHEAT CONFIRMED

I couldn't watch the swearing-in ceremony last night. The spectacle was so disgusting I just turned off the television. This was the mastermind behind the last bailout plan and TARP .. the "Troubled Asset Relief Program." Yeah, that's working real well, isn't it? Yup, there was Timothy Geithner, tax cheat ...

SPACE WEAPONS BAN

Obama wants to eliminate weapons from space. Come one here. Is there anyone out there who seriously thinks that weapons can be eliminated from space? This can't be a serious proposal. As space technology continues some country, somewhere, is going to surreptitiously move weaponry into orbit around the earth. Only ...

STATES TO DETERMINE EMISSION STANDARDS

Just this one policy initiative from PrezBo shows how out of touch he is, and how completely beholden he is to the environmental left - a movement dedicated to the destruction of American capitalism. Obama has now decided that every state shall be free to set its own environmental standards ...

WE'VE LOST THE BATTLE AGAINST BLUBBERBUTTS.

Yup .. the fight is over. For years I've been hearing fatsos say that they couldn't do anything about their weight because it was "in their genes." Now some scientists have told us that there is some virus out there that causes obesity. Fine, just fine. Now we're going to ...

THOSE REPUBLICANS ARE ALL FOR BIG BUSINESS ...

This caller started out with the normal nonsense about Republicans always being for big business and Democrats being for big government ... and he'd rather have stronger government than stronger businesses. I asked ...

EARMARK REFORM? WHO WERE WE KIDDING?

This giant excuse for a Democrat spending bill is shaping up to be conglomerate of earmarks. The problem is that they aren't being called "earmarks." Remember when Obama ran on a platform of transparency and earmark reform? Well he is dedicated to living up to that promise. So here's what ...

SOMEONE IN MINNESOTA GETS IT

Well actually, two people in Minnesota ... State Sen. Geoff Michel and state Rep.

The current budget deficit in Minnesota is $6 billion, and that happens to be about what they ...

FOCUSING ON WHAT'S IMPORTANT

A headline in today's Atlanta Journal Constitution reads "Teens mourn Cobb athlete killed in wreck." Not a Cobb "student." A Cobb "athlete." Well, being an athlete is more important than being a student, I guess. I love this paragraph from the AJC story: "Griggers [the school Principal] called Reed a ...

SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS

Looks like the millions of dollars for contraception in the "stimulus" plan will be removed. That's too bad. Tax-paying Americans .. a thinning minority ... are getting screwed here. A little contraception would only be right.  The American people voted for Barack Obama and made him president. So, he grants ...

THE STIMULUS BILL. YEAH, RIGHT.

Lordy, all this talk about the economic stimulus bill is dull. Sorry about that. Discussions about prostate or breast cancer can be dull as well, but sometimes you just need to listen a bit in hopes that you'll learn something that just might save your life. It's taking a long ...

AND IF YOU REALLY WANT STIMULUS

The Democrats want to print and spend about one trillion dollars. They say that they are doing this to "stimulate" the economy. The more discerning among you know that this is crock. This is nothing less than a massive government spending program ... one that will result in much higher ...
