A place to gather and discuss the slouching towards Socialism of our once great Nation. A place to discuss the perfidity of Congress and the President, and the Anti- Constitutionality of their actions. A place to remember the greatness of our heritage, the sacrifices that have been made on it's behalf.

Give a moments thanks for the Rich
Yes, I said Thank you to the rich. For the uninformed, the top 1% of income earners EARN 16.93% of the income but PAY 38.67% of the Federal income tax. The top 10% pay 74.47% of the federal income taxes. This money allows Congress to spend in a manner that would embarrass a drunken sailor.
But beyond that, they create jobs. Sam Moore Walton founded a company named Wal Mart. Wal mart has saved the poor and middle class billions by providing reasonable quality at a rock bottom price. Wal Mart is so efficient that when it builds a store, grocery prices in the surrounding areas FALL by 22% thus saving money for people that do not shop at wal mart. Clothing store prices fall by 14%.
Steve Jobs, had a vision and in working doggedly to pursue it gave us products that make our lives easier. That increase our productivity, he fundamentally transformed how we buy and listen to music.
Beyond the companies these men create, they are the most charitable people in Earths history. $330 BILLION in charitable foundations created from this wealth.
Even their money creates jobs, products, and small businesses. It is invested in other companies, start-ups, new technology, business expansions, ALL of which create jobs for everyday Americans.
Give a moments thanks because without these successful people, the government would not have money to buy votes, hand out charity, and you would not have a company to go to work for to earn your living.

No one to blame... but himself.
President Obama may find it might have been better to lose than to win in the coming months, as he must confront the consequences of his own fiscal policies.
No matter who won, the economy is likely to improve somewhat over the next two years. Not due to any politicians policy, but due to simple economics, and the American spirit. We have been down long enough. But, President Obama must now confront staggering debt, with no end in sight, a looming debt ceiling 6 months earlier than expected, trillion dollar deficits as far as the eye can see, a bankrupt social security and medicare system, and the staggering tax burden of his own Obamacare.
Given his lack of seriousness about dealing with the economy, jobs, and debt in his first term, and his reticence about describing his second term plans, combined with his pronouncement that his first priority in his second term is immigration reform, not jobs, or debt, He may find it would have been easier to be on the golf course laughing at Romney's efforts, than to be responsible for his own, with no predecessor to blame.

Liberal Media Hypocrisy
Under Bush, Cindy Sheehan was feted for two years.
Under Obama, Tyrone Woods dad is not even being reported.
From 2004-2008 we got daily body counts of our military dead.
From 2009-2012 No reports. A quick Lexis-Nexis search shows 7,388 body count stories during Bush second term, 32 During Obama's.
Under Bush, Bush lied people died became a mantra, with no lie.
Under Obama, he DID lie, and our Ambassador and three others were murdered, and the MSM largely ignores it.
Under Bush, when gas prices neared $4.00 it was Bush's fault, daily stories, blaming him.
Under Obama when gas prices hit $5.00 in some places, NO STORIES BLAMING HIM!
Under Bush, the level of Debt was unpatriotic.
Under Obama it was necessary, and Bush's fault.
Under Bush 4.2% unemployment was unacceptable.
Under Obama, 7.9% is SUCCESS!
Obama has gone 4 years without a budget or written spending plan.
The Press hounds Romney for not detailing EVERY detail of his spending plan.
We can do better!
