Now, and then.

Criminal, I think. Your opinion?

Pro-Life Groups Illegally Investigated

Posted on February 11, 2010 | Leave a comment

By the government AND the police. For absolutely no reason at all.

DHS admitted it. Destroyed all its assessment copies. But shared with Wisconsin’s intel and local police force. The police force kept its copy but won’t release it to affected parties.

Read the whole thing. Still think the country is in the best of hands?

UPDATE: Anti-Tea Party Web Site Part of Scheme to Funnel Funds

Posted on February 10, 2010 | Leave a comment

A seemingly grassroots organization that’s mounted an online campaign to counter the tea party movement is actually the front end of an elaborate scheme that funnels funds — including sizable labor union contributions — through the offices of a prominent Democratic party lawyer.

Read more … and be informed.

Shady and dishonest for sure, but not illegal???? Criminy. It should be. It needs to be.

UPDATE: Via Instapundit. FOX has the list of donors. AFSCME is one of them. They gave $9.9M within one year, government money, union dues, to fend off Tea Party protesters.

TARP Created a Looming Disaster

Posted on February 3, 2010 | Leave a comment

Per Big Government reporter Morgan Richmond.

Yesterday the Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP) released their Quarterly Report to Congress for the period ending 12/31/2009.

The Big Government article is a MUST READ. If, that is, you really want to know where the blame lies.

How Important Is Your Vote?

Posted on January 31, 2010 | Leave a comment

To you?

What if a state Attorney General says you don’t have the right to a secret ballot?

Then what do you do?? Complain to your Congressman? Your Senator?

Who will correct this? (No, this is NOT a rhetorical question.)

UPDATEx5: Executive Order 12425 Amended

Posted on January 30, 2010 | 3 comments

What the heck is this?

Interpol granted full immunity to operate in the U.S. of A.??????

Anyone else see this? It had damn well better be a mistake.

UPDATEx1: And to think I am paranoid. I am not alone. All my thoughts are duplicated by The Anchoress.

UPDATEx2: Jake Tapper (ABC) appears to have a better assessment of this Amendment to this Executive Order. See if you agree. I think he is probably correct.

UPDATEx3: Let’s get back to the issue of full immunity. There is still some worthy concern there as I feel the same about that. Especially from Andy McCarthy. Yes, why should there be immunity for Interpol – please answer that, White House.

UPDATEx4: Apparently, this is part of a plan. (?) Remember past history. This could be a warning.

UPDATEx5: How about that. Someone in Congress agrees this Executive Order should be undone. About time.

Death Knell

Posted on January 29, 2010 | Leave a comment

The question is: for who?

Us? The Democrats? The Progressives? Our entire country??????

This. Crap. Has. To. Stop. (psst. That post was updated to reflect Sen. Kyl’s comments. Do I hear, “Danger! Danger!”?)

Oh. And this too! Enlarging a piggy bank and ASSUMING it automatically gives you something is nothing to be proud of.

Stop pussyfooting around, Congress. We are watching you even if you think we are not.
Why do you insist upon making us even more mad than we are RIGHT NOW?
You think we won’t remember this come November????

Fat chance of that.

Bad Mental Image

Pole vault? Nancy Pelosi?

Folks, this seems to me to be an attempt to keep us on our toes.
Hoping (they are, I think) to keep us off-balance.

Not. Going. To. Happen.

Competition to Burger King

Only 10 Whoppers? Pretty expensive year-long deal, I’d say.

Heh. The SOTU address likely has even more.
