If anyone needs an example of how government can ruin anything, just by being involved in it, take a look at the state of Delaware and what it has done to the gambling industry.
The state of Delaware has been relying on revenue from gambling now for many years. [...]
I have to admit that I often take a step back and ask myself, why must we continually fight against our own government and our leaders?
It seems that even when the party we support is in control, that we are constantly at odds.
Every morning we get up with [...]
Speaker Pelosi has announced her intention to raise the national debt limit, well since we are dangerously close to passing it, I guess it would be a good idea to raise it. You know so it at least looks like we are not piling debt upon debt.
On Monday the EPA released its “Endangerment Finding” and named carbon dioxide as a “DANGEROUS POLLUTANT”. This , says the EPA would allow it to regulate carbon output, without the need for any congressional legislation.
Trouble is, this Endangerment Finding is heavily based on another EPA document released back in [...]
We have all heard the story of the frog in the pot. You know the one where the frog is put in the pot of water and then the fire is lit beneath it. As the water is slowly heated the frog thinks to himself , well this isn’t [...]
As we have seen demonstrated in recent weeks, much of the so-called consensus on man-made global warming or if you prefer , climate change, is based on junk science, manipulated numbers and out-and-out lies.
With the release of the “climate gate ” e-mails that showed that many of the leading “SCIENTIST” [...]
Okay, so I have finished reading Sarah Palin’s book , ” Going Rogue ; An American Life”.
Yes, I’m sure many who bought the book on the first day of its release finished it much faster than I was able to. My reading time is mostly at work while waiting [...]
In an up-coming speech on Tuesday. First let me step aside for a moment and ask , does it seem like this president is always on T.V. giving another speech, or is it just me?
Okay so in another opportunity for Pres. Obama to get some face time on T.V., he [...]
There would seem to be some similarities between healthcare reform and the proposed school consolidation here in Delaware.
Like those who support healthcare reform, those who support school consolidation , tell us about how much money it will save the tax payers. But when you look behind the numbers and [...]
“School Consolidation” June 6,2009
Well we are hearing a lot about school consolidation as of late. The most recent proponent is Delaware State Auditor Tom Wagner Jr. . Mr. Wagner has released a report that recommends consolidating the 19 school districts into smaller state run districts at least on the [...]
Well Pres. Obama finally let the rest of the nation in on his plan, on how to proceed with the war in Afghanistan.
As I and others predicted the President attempted to walk the middle ground. He was clearly trying to please all of the political factions within the country [...]
President Obama is scheduled to give a prime time address to the nation tonight explaining his Afghanistan strategy. Well it only took him since August to decide what it would be.
I fear that this president has been too concerned with the political fall-out from any decision that he [...]
I have made no attempt to hide the fact that I am dissatisfied with the past performance of Rep. Mike Castle in congress. I do not feel that he represents my views on what I consider to be key issues, such as the environment, smaller government, and family values.
Even with the “Climate Gate ” e-mails that have exposed the out-and-out lies of the left’s agenda when it comes to global climate change, Pres. Obama still intends to attend the Copenhagen climate summit. Where it is reported by Whitehouse sources that the President will personally commit the United States to [...]

I am just a voter. I have only one vote to cast for those I choose to support.
I am not privy to any of the Machiavellian workings of the GOP . I don’t receive the internal memos . Mr. Steele has never called me up to ask my opinion, [...]
Back on March 19,2009, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to impose a 90% tax on the income of certain executives of financial institutions who had received federal funding during the bailouts.
Considering that the house is controled by the Democrats this is not all that remarkable. What is remarkable [...]
Well, it took out-and-out bribery of fellow Senators, one hundred million dollars of pork for Louisiana alone , but Senate Majority leader Harry Reid was able to cobble together the bare minimum of sixty votes to move the health care debate to the floor [...]
Experience, what is it really ? Well it can be defined as something that you have lived through. It can be defined as , observation of or participation in events resulting in or tending towards knowledge.

Well our newly formed fascist government is at it again. Now congress is considering whether it should mandate paid sick leave for everyone who comes down with the H1N1 flu virus.

The reason [...]
Well , Sarah Palin’s book finally hit the stands yesterday, and yes I got my copy. The last that the store had and that was at around ten in the morning.

In a report released on Monday , the Treasury Department inspector general reported that 15 million tax payers could owe additional taxes when they file their 2009 tax returns.

Isn’t it ironic that speaker Pelosi would wear a red dress on the day that she was able to force socialized health care through the U.S. House of Representatives.
I mean since if this legislation gets passed, it will bleed the American working class into economic [...]
The state of California has decided that highway robbery is a better solution to their economic troubles , than is cutting their out of control spending.
The state of California has increased payroll withholding by ten percent . Spokeswoman ,Brenda Voet , for the State Franchise Tax Board , said “this is [...]
This one is for T.W. . I originally posted this over on www.politicallyfrank.wordpress.com on Oct15,2009. I hope it explaines better my view of how we can make the GOP stronger here in Delaware. My reasons for feeling that the change is needed come from watching as the party has [...]
In Maine for the thirty-first time homosexual marriage has been rejected by the voters. This has happened every single time that the issue has been put to a popular vote in thirty-one states. This is the first time that a law passed in a legislature has been repealed by the people. [...]
In the much watched race for the 23rd Congressional race in new York , the Democrat Bill Owens has beat out the Conservative Party candidate , in a race that had more turns than a NASCAR road course.
First the GOP puts up a liberal candidate, then the Conservative Party puts [...]
Two of the three most watched races on this election day have been called for the Republicans.
