This year alone they have increased their military expenditures 14.9% or 62.482 billion yuan from last year. While America is contemplating a 10% reduction, or possibly more, in its defense spending.While we lower our defenses in hopes of garnering "peace dividends," China is looking to develop more effective weapons systems which can effectively engage the US and its forces, such as the Dong Feng-21...

Mitch McConnell, the Fallacy of Bi-Partisanship, and Liberal Dupes
Mitch McConnell, Senate Minority Leader from Kentucky, took to the Sunday morning news circuit on CNN's, State of the Union. McConnell said he was disappointed in President Obama's "lack of bipartisanship."I am no fan of McConnell. He represents the corporatists and statists which have removed the conservative element from the GOP. However, even when someone I don't care for speaks the truth, they...

Fast-Track on Obama Budget not exactly Reconciliation.
The once black and white battlefield for Obama's monstrosity of spending and government largess has just gotten a lot more complex. House Dems have inserted in the bill the option of reconciliation. If the Senate leadership agrees with the House this could, in theory, shut down the GOP attempts to stymie the budget proposal through filibustering..From the New York Times,NYT-Republicans are in a tizzy...
Rep. Michelle Bachmann and the Disappearing Dollar: A Conservative's Take
Personally, I am not a big devotee to the So-Con movement, however, like the sympathy I felt for President Bush for having to endure incendiary lies that were promulgated by the Far-Left, I also extend it to Social Conservatives. Right now their latest target of opportunity is Representative Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota.The main cause of her being targeted for political termination, by Far-Left loons and apologists, was her opposition to the idea of an "international reserve currency" to replace...

Update on States' Reaffirming Their Rights and Soverignty
If you are a somewhat regular reader here then you know we have been following the topic of the states' rights movement with some interest.

Daniel Hannan: Brit MEP and Bulldog
Gordon Brown, Britain's PM has almost bankrupted the country, spending money they don't have, and hoping through power of personality that Obama can somehow overcome the recession.

Bobby Jindal: At least one GOP'er has some intellectual balls.
Governor Bobby Jindal (R-LA.), at a $2,500-per-plate dinner fund raiser had some words of wisdom for his neutered Republican colleagues.Jindal laid out the battle plan as simply as he could saying, "Republicans must be ready to defy the president when they disagree with his policies." Of course, getting the GOP to follow even the simplest commands can be a greater challenge than building a pyramid.The young Governor even sharpened Limbaugh's point making it a little more palatable, "We are now...
Barney, can I be Frank? You are an idiot.
Well, I'm not Frank, I'm me (Thank God!), but Frank is still and idiot. The Bailout Queen throws another temper tantrum and calls Supreme Court Justice, Antonin Scalia, "a homophobe," while drenching a cameraman with spittle.Here is the Bailout Queen's latest rant, courtesy of 365Gay.com.I guess Barney is now tapping in to his inner GayPatriot (Good blog by the way.). He is seemingly against judicial activism when it involves social issues, how convenient. Can't wait to spark up that debate on...

Margaret Hamburg: Obama's FDA Appointee and Stock Options
Remember during the Iraq war all anyone heard about was then Vice President Dick Cheney's conflict of interest because of his involvement with Haliburton?

Is Mitt Romney the established boss?
Is Mitt Romney the new boss of the GOP? I know Michael Steel is the chairman. I know that Palin still enjoys a high degree of popularity among conservatives. I'm aware that Governor Jindal of Louisiana seems to have a huge upside and promising future. But, Mitt Romney seems to possess something -- call it competence, his success, demeanor or his presidential tone and image -- it is either one of those things, or perhaps all of them, that give him a unique standing in the GOP. Already setting the...

Barack Obama's Teleprompter's Blog: Join the Cult, I have!

Dodd being scapgoated by the White House?
Personally I don't give a damn about AIG spending millions on executive bonuses. Why? Because there is too much public animation being fueled by hyperbole from the White House and a complicit media. Usually, situations like this are indicative of an attempt by some system to shift attention from something that is much more consequential. And too many of us are falling for the smoke and mirrors treatment from the Obamanoids. While perusing some of my favorite reading, I found article upon article,...
