It's clearly time for the current administration to recall what happened to the last "dynasties" which believed in Tsarism. They got the axe. Tempting as it is, and seemingly justified by practice and precedent laid down by misguided past administrations, Obama must avoid the temptation of tipping the balance of power toward the Executive Branch, and kill the dangerous practice of appointing so-called "Czars" to key governmental positions.
This year, I decided it was time to stop wandering, stop searching for the truth, and let it find me. I finally gave up and gave in. I finally woke up and realized that the Truth was right next to me all along. I don't know whether I converted, because I think I've been Catholic all along; it was just a matter of clearing away all the fog, the noise and the negativity.
- The President comes into OUR Chamber - The Peoples' Congress - and in rather thinly veiled lawyerspeak, calls those who disagree with him untruthful...In essence, Resident Obama calls those who disagree with him, "liars."
This is the can of whoop-ass (you know, the truth slapping him in the face?) our ex-Governor needs to understand he was fired for good reason. Bonnie's one of my favorite Chicagoans.
Let's face it, the last time Republicans had any street cred, Ronald Reagan was in office. His plank of "less government, less waste" was hammer-clawed right from the Libertarian platform.

More than once in my lifetime, I've been to someone's house, and seen a stack of unopened bills in their inbox. We're not talking fresh-from-the-mailbox bills either. We're talking yellowing-paper, crispy crinkly-old envelopes, sent two or three postal rate increases ago. The bills never got opened; the bills rarely get paid.
News came out last night that Senator Edward Kennedy passed away, after over a yearlong battle with brain cancer. While I disagree with the Senator's philosophy and underhanded tactics, I do recognize, respect and support his God-given right and Government-given freedom to choose to secure the best medical care providers he can find.
Thank you, Glenn Beck, for giving ACORN their 15 minutes (scratch that...less than 15 minutes). The citizens of the US need to put ACORN out of business.
Let's suspend reality for a moment, take ourselves out of the political mêlée and economic stress. Let's gently place ourselves into the future. Imagine the year is 2020, and we're looking back at this economic debacle to figure out what caused it. Let's look at it with perfect "2020 hindsight," as it were.
