Prepare for the Worst
  Economics piece by Offsite (11/7/09)

The immense government bailout to boost the economy will result in a repeat of the Great Depression, says Ron Paul, Republican congressman of Texas and one-time candidate for president.

Ford Taurus Production Halted for One Week
  Unions piece by Offsite (11/7/09)

DETROIT—A labor dispute at an auto parts supplier in India has forced Ford Motor Co to shut production of its new Taurus full-size sedan one week due to a transmission component shortage, a spokesman said on Friday.

Stopping the next amnesty is not enough
  Immigration piece by Offsite (11/7/09)

If you think a congressional amnesty for 15 million illegal aliens is a bad idea, think about a stealth amnesty for 50 million. That’s what we’ve got now even without any new legislation from the 111th Congress.

Junk-science huckster
  Global Warming piece by Offsite (11/7/09)

House Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming Chairman Ed Markey, D-Mass., was outraged that a renegade freelance lobbyist had sent a dozen phony letters to members of Congress, urging them to vote against cap-and-trade legislation.

Responding to modern Marxism
  The Republic piece by Offsite (11/7/09)

The first unmistakable tremors were recorded on April 15. The earth shook again throughout the month of August, when politicians returned home to face their constituents. Those brave souls who dared to hold a town hall meeting were met with enthusiastic questions about cap-and-trade, about the stimulus, about health care and about what appears to be a mad rush to socialism.

A Reminder of What Jindal’s Made of
   Republicrats piece by Warner Todd Huston (2/28/09)

We all saw the rocky performance that Bobby Jindal gave in his response to the president’s not-the-state-of-the-union speech earlier this week. There was a lot of wincing going on during and after his performance. But, let me stress the word “performance,“ here. It was NOT the basic theme of the speech that was so bad. It was but how he delivered it.

Chinese Spies Infiltrating US Businesses
   National Security piece by Jim Kouri (2/28/09)

The almost legendary MI5 British counterintelligence service is said to be deeply concerned over an increase in spying by Chinese operatives in the United Kingdom. Although intelligence experts aren’t certain how widespread the problem is, they believe the espionage is rampant and a serious consequence of the global economy.

Tall Ships, Netanyahu, And America
   Middle East piece by Offsite (2/28/09)

In the night before and during the early morning hours of July 4, 1976, Israel launched Operation Thunderball aka Operation Thunderbolt aka…

‘Is It Taxation - Or Theft?‘
   Congress piece by Thomas D. Segel (2/28/09)

Harlingen, Texas, February 27, 2009:  There is a saying that when one person steals your money, he is a thief.  When Congress does the same thing, it is taxation.  I would argue what Congress does is still the work of 535 thieves.

‘Who do you trust? Who can you trust next election?‘
   Elections piece by John Longenecker (2/28/09)

Now the question has some meaning, since the Republicans seem to have woken up and discovered what has happened to them.

Editorial: Economic Destruction
   Economics piece by Editor (2/27/09)

Today we received our final tax refund from Big Brother.  A few dollars have been used to buy some goodies, but most is being directed toward eliminating debt.

People demanded change and it’s coming
   Economics piece by Offsite (2/27/09)

The American people want change. The November election established the demand for change. It is just a question of what change we are going to get and if that change is good for our future.

Economic Crisis Complicates California’s Goals on Climate
   Global Warming piece by Offsite (2/27/09)

COLTON, Calif. - Only a few years ago, CalPortland planned on keeping its plant here operating as long as Mount Slover’s limestone held out. For more than a century, Colton’s kilns and crushing machines have been churning out cement for the streets and buildings of Los Angeles.

Toward Nationalizing U.S. Banks - Toward One World Order
   NewWorldOrder piece by Rev Bresciani (2/27/09)

According to bible prophecy the single reason that the worlds last and most vicious world leader succeeds where all others before him have failed is that he doesn’t attempt to conquer the world with warfare. How does he do it?

The Most Dangerous Gang In America May Already Be In Your Neighborhood
   Crime piece by Dave Gibson (2/27/09)

MS-13 (or Mara Salvatrucha) was formed by Salvadoran, mostly illegal immigrants in the 1980’s, during El Salvador’s civil war. While the gang was originally made up exclusively of Salvadorans, they now accept all Central Americans as well as Mexicans. MS stands for Mara (slang for mob), Salva (El Salvador), Trucha (slang for on-guard).

US Government Fails Test Of National Security
   National Security piece by J. D. Longstreet (2/27/09)

Texans along US/Mexico border not safe or secure! - The dope gang wars on the US/Mexican border must really be ticking some people in Washington off, big time.  Just when they thought the decks were clear, and they have the numbers to pass the Amnesty Bill, this time for sure, all hell breaks loose on the border.

Editorial: I Would Like To Revive The Right Topixs Search Engine
   Internet piece by Editor (2/26/09)

Recent indications are that selective political censorship of Internet searches is starting to move forward.

Public perception versus economic reality
   Economics piece by John David Powell (2/26/09)

A friendly conversation the other night about politics and the economy underscored the great gulf between perception and reality.  The old saying is true that perception is reality, but, in reality, only if one doesn’t delve deeply into the subject in question.

The 2010 Decennial Census and Grounds for Suspicion
   Government piece by FreeCongressFoundation: Marion Edwyn Harrison (2/26/09)

There are many cries for greater transparency in the functioning of the Federal Government.  One subject which has received relatively sparse media and political attention but which raises grounds for suspicion (if perhaps short of “reeking” with suspicion) is conduct of the 2010 Decennial Census.

Senate OKs DeMint’s Fairness Doctrine Ban
   Big Brother piece by Offsite (2/26/09)

The Senate on Thursday overwhelmingly approved an amendment banning reinstatement of the so-called “Fairness Doctrine” that would threaten conservative talk radio.

Weatherman denounces Gore, global warming
   Global Warming piece by Offsite (2/26/09)

A San Diego weather forecaster will be a featured speaker at the 2009 International Climate Change Conference in New York City.

Hate Speech At San Francisco State University
   EdukShun piece by Offsite (2/26/09)

The fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel in the recent Gaza incursion may have brought a tentative peace to that region, but on campuses in California—the veritable ground zero of anti-Israel sentiment in the academy—the debate over the 60-year conflict has gained a new, and more insidious, momentum as student demonstrations, protests, and denunciations of racist Zionism, a “brutal occupation,“ and “genocide” of Arabs were heard on campuses worldwide.

The Cal Ripken president
   Government piece by Offsite (2/26/09)

...In fourth grade, the earliest grade for which international comparisons are available, American students outperform most other countries in reading, math and science. Fourth-graders score in the 92nd percentile in science, the 58th percentile in math and the 70th percentile in reading, where they beat 26 of 35 countries, including Germany, France and Italy.

Ayers Under Fire
   Progressivism piece by Offsite (2/26/09)

The Support Bill Ayers petition has now garnered signatures from thousands of academics and other citizens in support for former Weather Underground member Bill Ayers, but Ayer’s reputation in academia may not be so rosy after his time in this year’s election spotlight.

The Green Energy Fantasy
   Energy piece by Offsite (2/26/09)

Will a green energy industry be an engine of economic growth? Many want us to think so, including our new president. Apparently a booming green economy with millions of new jobs is just around the corner. All we need is the right mix of government “incentives.“

Hey America, Knock Off The Pity Party
   Economics piece by Thomas D. Segel (2/26/09)

Harlingen, Texas, February 23, 2009:  There is a lot of hand wringing and moaning going on across the American landscape.  The political prevaricators proclaim we are facing such dire times and such agony that it is almost the end of days.  Pardon me, but what a bunch of crap!

Invasion USA: Congressman Calls for Hearing on Border Violence
   National Security piece by Jim Kouri (2/26/09)

Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Lamar Smith (R-Texas) today called on House Democrats to hold a hearing on the surge in drug-related violence on the U.S.-Mexico border.  The violence is attributed to Mexican drug cartels, fighting turf battles and competing to control the U.S. drug trade markets.

So. Fla. Sun-Sentinel: Slams Hysterics Over Gun Banning While Advocating Gun Banning
   Progressivism piece by Warner Todd Huston (2/26/09)

Seriously, do the kindly folks at the South Florida Sun-Sentinel’s editorial board even know what the definition of the word logic is? In theirs headlined, “Hysteria fuels sales of guns and ammo(1),“ the Sun-Sentinel takes Floridians to task for being so stupid as to be afraid of Obama’s gun banning plans, claiming that Obama “didn’t do it.“ But, even after telling readers no one wants to ban guns, the piece ends with the Sun-Sentinel editorial board advocating for the banning of guns! So the message is, no one wants a gun ban but we should ban guns? This is the sort of logical disconnect that fuels the very “hysteria” that the paper is claiming to want to dispel.

Rosanna Pulido:  Illinois Congressional Candidate of Substance
   Elections piece by Sher Zieve (2/26/09)

In a state not known for its traditional American values, a strong 5th District conservative candidate has come forth and is taking no prisoners.  Her name is Rosanna Pulido.  I first met Rosanna, native Chicagoan and the founder and current director of the Illinois Minuteman Project, in 2006.  This prompted my interview with her and subsequent article “More Illegals in Illinois than California.”  Since then, Rosanna has been extremely busy.  She is also one of the original Minutemen who served at the Historic Arizona/Mexico Border Watch in 2005 as well as the Illinois Spokesperson for “You Don’t Speak For Me” - American Hispanics speaking out against illegal immigration. 

Ending Politically Tainted Intelligence Gathering and Analysis
   National Security piece by Jim Kouri (2/26/09)

Closely tied to the question of how best to set intelligence requirements are the larger questions of how to improve analysis by the intelligence community and how to increase its impact.

Light At The End Of The Tunnel Turned Off!
   Progressivism piece by J. D. Longstreet (2/26/09)

It is a painful time for Americans of my age.  We have the memories of an America, glorious and honorable in her past… a past, which has been forgotten and erased, in many cases, from the history books of America’s students. Above all things our America was honorable. A young American today would be hard pressed to define “honor.“  To define “dishonorable” is much easier.  One has only to turn one’s attention to the actions of the American Congress, ruled by the American Left, for a real-time view of dishonor.

‘Is Obama’s ‘homeless’ woman really displaced?‘
   Welfare State piece by Offsite (2/25/09)

When President Obama went to Fort Myers, Fla., to emphasize the nation’s need for his economic stimulus plan, he promised to help a pleading homeless woman get back on her feet in a highly publicized exchange - but recent reports now reveal the woman may, in fact, be an owner of multiple properties.

‘What if there is no Man-Made Global Warming? What then?‘
   Global Warming piece by Tom DeWeese (2/25/09)

Here are some questions every American should ask their elected officials - especially those supporting “climate change” legislation: If it is proven that climate change is not man-made, but natural, will you be relieved and excited to know that man is off the hook? Will you now help to remove all of the draconian regulations passed during the global warming hysteria, since it was all wrong headed and harmful to the economy and our way of life?

Cap And Trade Will Shut Down What’s Left Of The Economy
   ObamaNation piece by Malcolm T. Hedges (2/25/09)

As energy costs are artificially inflated, business and jobs will disappear in droves.  Everyone but the Progressive Socialist Elites will be thrown into poverty.

‘Are the States About to Slap the Runaway Fed Down to Constitutional Size?‘
   Big Brother piece by JB Williams (2/25/09)

On February 5, 2009, I released a column titled New Hampshire Leads Next American Revolution! At the time, only a handful of states had introduced legislative efforts to reclaim state sovereignty under the Ninth and Tenth Amendments of the US Constitution.
