Contempt of Congress… surely not

Once again we have our House of Representatives wasting my taxpayer money chasing White House staff over this prosecutor firing fiasco. Like I wrote previously it seems that our legislators have run off the road and into the ditch. Instead of pursuing things that matter they instead purse things that are purely [...]

Finally a blow to anti-terrorism

It is about time that something we can all stand up and cheer about happens… Congress finally stands up for all Americans and decides to include the so-called “John Doe” provision to the Homeland Security legislation before Congress. There has been some heated wrangling going om for some time and it seems the correct [...]

Hillary is out of control once again

Once again we find our princess is running amok pushing her weight around like she was somebody. She has apparantly decided to take over as Commander-In-Chief of our armed forces…
In May, she called on Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Peter Pace to design plans for an orderly withdrawal of [...]

Stick a finger in your eye, blame the other guy

From OverLawyered.com… on a $5 dare from friends, 13-year-old Justin Porter climbed 35 feet up an electric transmission tower. Who was to know such an adventure might prove dangerous? 19,700 volts later, his mother, Anna Thebeau, is suing the electric utility, Ameren, saying it should have fenced off the tower against trespassers, should have posted [...]

$1 million dollars allocated to non-existant company

Positive proof that our legislators don’t read the bills that they are voting on…
An earmark sponsored by Pennsylvania Representative John Murtha (what a surprise), didn’t bother confirming whether the Center for Instrumented Critical Infrastructure actually existed. This earmark was part of a bill sponsored by Indiana’s Peter Visclosky. When Visclosky was questioned about [...]

More injustice… over $1.63

Just about when you think you have heard it all you really have not.  And I thought I had problems.
This article from the Boston.com news tells the story of the Atwoods from Slidell, LA.  They had their home sold at a tax sale to recover a $1.63 in delinquent taxes.  And by the way… they [...]

Justice is hiding once again

Who would have thought that this would happen in our own Alabama backyard? But it is true. This admitted sex deviant is getting off without any jail time. Yet 17 year old Genarlow Wilson gets 10 years in prison for having consensual oral sex with a 17 year old! This [...]

Initial report not so good…

President’s Bush’s report card on Iraq is not as promising as I would have hoped. By most accounts, of the 18 points to be assessed, eight were positive, seven were negative and the remainder lay in the balance. Personally I would have liked to see better results. But the report is what [...]

Bush lets Americans down… again

You always hear talk about lame duck presidents.  But Bush surpasses all my expectations.  First he tried jamming the shamnesty bill down our throats.  Now he has pardoned Libby.  What a travesty.
And it is not that I disagree with the pardon.  Libby’s whole trial was nothing more than a witch hunt to take a chunk [...]
