It is good that we are finally having the kind of discussions that the American people need.  The Paul Ryan Vice President pick has brought the medicare issue to the forefront  of the debate.  This is critical,  becaue according to the program’s trustees, the hospital insurance trust fund will be “exhausted in 2024,” five years [...]

In case you missed it, our government perpetrated a crime against its citizenry recently by scooping up an American off the street and holding him indefinitely without charge for exercising his right to free speech.  This is truly frightening and clearly illustrates just how close to that edge of despotism we are currently teetering.  Glenn [...]

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office released a sprawling economic report, and it underscored how dire our looming economic forecast looks. If we can somehow avoid falling off the fiscal cliff and deflect Taxmageddon, thereby averting a wave of scheduled tax hikes as the “Bush Tax Rates” expire, we can hopefully stay stagnated as we are [...]

Too bad the majority of Americans have no idea Obama has said [...]

The Progressive Corp. insurance group proved itself a despicable company after it tried to avoid paying $75,000 to the family of a client killed in a car crash and then tried to blame the wreck on her.  The story began with a tragic car accident where Progressive insurance customer,  Kaitlynn Fisher, was killed in a June 2010 [...]

There is no bigger financial problem facing the American people than Medicare, and its shadow will fall on both seniors and younger taxpayers, because unlike Social Security, some of the astronomical cost of Medicare comes directly out of annual federal revenues.  Medicare’s long term financial deficit is around $85 trillion dollars.  Everyone agrees that the [...]

President Obama recently had the Jefferson Koran on display during the White House Ramadan dinner. While the President was accurate when he said, “Of all the freedoms we cherish as Americans, of all the rights that we hold sacred, foremost among them is freedom of religion, the right to worship as we choose. It’s enshrined [...]

A friend of mine recently used a quote from Georg Hegel to exemplify passion, “Nothing great in the world has been accomplished without passion.”  The problem does not lie in its contents, rather the context.  You see, evil men can passionately speak as well.  The following quote could be a powerful message of good will and [...]
