Biden, ‘We’re Moving In The Right Direction’
The media is dutifully in line with the administration in talking about this ‘summer of recovery.’ Obama was talking about this summer, right? The theme is ripe for a SNL skit. The media and administration are trying to put lipstick on a pig by saying that the economic recovery isn’t happening as fast as they [...]
The Folks Win, For Now
Wouldn’t you like to know where your bank bailout money went? Who knew, in this age of transparency and accountability, that you would have to go to the Supreme Court to find out? A U.S. appeals court refused to reconsider a ruling that requires the Federal Reserve Board to disclose documents identifying financial firms that [...]

Special Session For ‘Jobs Bill’
The House is back in a special session to vote on a $26 Billion spending bill to temporarily bail out labor unions. Paying for it by raising taxes and raiding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. That would be the food-stamp program. The labor unions on the receiving end are the teachers unions and the AFSCME, [...]
Pensacola, It’s Time To Take Care Of Business
Pensacola and Escambia County are in the same economic boat as the rest of the country. The cost of running the government, the overhead, is not sustainable and needs fixing. Then there is the cost of operating facilities that the government need not be involved in, and you see a not so rosy economic picture [...]
What Joe Biden Said, A Reminder
Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.” In what was the biggest political head-fake of the Obama campaign, or just dumb luck, then VP candidate Joe Biden said that Obama will [...]
