Government schools around the country
are urging students to remain silent, to show solidarity (and approval) of so-called
homosexual discrimination. You might want to keep your kids home.
Despite surveys showing that 75 percent of U.S. citizens are
against providing amnesty, President Barack Obama and the
Democratic-controlled House will push a system to make 12 million illegal aliens
residing in the United States legal. Wait a minute...aren't these guys supposed
to be working for
us?
Despite the recession, state governments continue their quest to raise taxes on
anything and everything. At least 10 states are considering some kind of
major increase in sales or income taxes. California and New York lawmakers
already have agreed on multibillion-dollar tax increases
Many states are
disguising
these new taxes as 'fees'. Just one example: Washington’s mayor has proposed
a “streetlight user fee” of $4.25 a month, to be added to electric bills, that would
cover the cost of operating and maintaining the city’s streetlights.
While ordinary Americans continue to cut spending and tighten their budgets, our
elected officials continue spending our money on pork, only now, they're
trying to disguise it. Dozens of House members have buried
their earmark requests on their official Web sites, technically complying with a
new rule -- but just barely. Sneaky stuff.
If you've had enough and want to do something about it, why don't you join
millions of Americans this Wednesday as they stage Tax Day Tea Parties across the
nation.

Sperm should be
subject to product liability laws, according to a judge
who has given a teenager with severe learning disabilities the OK to sue the sperm

have children.
A 42-year-old man who authorities say
fathered 14 children with 13 different women in Genesee

Setting the record straight: This
short video shows the many efforts made by Republicans,
as early as 2002, to warn Congress of the impending financial meltdown.
The latest Rasmussen Reports
national telephone survey found that only 53% of American
adults believe capitalism is better than socialism. I'm scared for our country.
IDIOT OF THE WEEK:
A woman
called 911 to report she didn't get as much shrimp as she
wanted in her fried rice at a Texas restaurant. What do you want to bet she voted
for Obama? Sigh...
On a personal note, I wish I had more good news to report. Many conservatives, myself
included, are feeling ignored and impotent. I take heart in my firm opinion that
one person
can make a difference. I also take heart from this
Dumb Blonde video.
Until next week, try to keep smiling. As Obama has shown, things can change very
quickly.
