Lame Republicans

SB510 Passes thanks to the RINO Republicans (Republican In Name Only)

More federal employees will be needed, more of future generations money will be spent, and more freedoms have been taken.

We are in deep trouble because of our deep national debt!

This new law will cost billions of dollars. When interest rates start to rise, the cost of just financing our debt will cost more than the entire defense budget.

We are at a crossroads that the politicians do not understand and with todays votes on SB510 and earmarks their is no reason to believe our federal government is headed in the right direction now or for the next two years. Emergency bills that cut spending need to be passed and until that happens confidence in our economy will never return and the decline will continue.

Welcome To The Future


The Falcon Hypersonic Test Vehicle is designed to skim the top of the atmosphere just below space, and is a key element of the Pentagon's Conventional Prompt Global Strike (CPGS) capability — a program to build non-nuclear strategic weapons that can strike conventionally anywhere in the world in less than an hour.

The States Created The Federal Government

On Nov. 16, Texas Representative Leo Berman (R-Tyler) filed a bill in the Texas House of Representatives that would nullify federal health care legislation in the the Lone Star State. HB-297 asserts:

The federal Act is not authorized by the United States Constitution and violates the Constitution’s true meaning and intent as expressed by the founders of this country and the ratifiers of the Constitution.

The federal Act:
(1) is invalid in this state;
(2) is not recognized by this state;
(3) is specifically rejected by this state; and
(4) is null and void and of no effect in this state.

The bill takes things a step further, making it a crime for any official, agent, or employee of the United States or an employee of any corporation to enforce any part of the health care act in Texas, and imposes fines up to $5,000 and/or five years in prison for anyone convicted of doing so.

While some might call this legislation radical, it rests squarely within the scope of state power as understood by the framers of the Constitution. James Madison wrote in the Virginia Resolution of 1798 that states not only have a right, but a duty to step in when the federal government oversteps its authority.

Lame Duck Congress

He looks harmless.
This could be the most dangerous lame duck of all time!
The Lame Duck Congress returns to Washington D.C. 11.15.10







The 111th Congress returns to Washington for its final session later this month with what will likely be a weakened president, shell-shocked Democrats and an emboldened Republican Party seeking to define a new political dynamic.

Hammer Time

Bye Bye Nancy
Who's smiling now?
This is Nancy Pelosi's victory march On March 20, 2010 among the citizens of the United States as they were protesting government run healthcare, the day before it was signed into law.
I was one of those citizens

Stay tuned, it's going to be a bumpy ride.
