According to syndicated Conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer, Democrats are in for a real surprise if they think Paul Ryan is a push over. The beauty of the choice is it makes a clear choice between big government liberals and Obama and leaders that have worked hard to limit the size and scope of government in our lives.
We can't wait for the Vice President candidates debates.
My maternal grandparents were immigrants from Greece. When I was younger I remember my Mom telling me that her family was embarrassed when they eventually had to go on welfare or County relief (“the County”) as it was known then and did whatever they had to do—kids—included to get off the county. Today, there is a far different mind-set when it comes to relying on government “entitlement” programs. Bill O'Reilly sums up this change in Americans’ attitude toward welfare, perfectly.
Patriots have never liked paying taxes to govertment. One wonders whether either of these two has heard of the Boston Tea Party. Listen very closely to the words in the narration.
Are we looking at another summer like 1968? Glenn Beck thinks so and explained why recently on GBTV .
Here is a 10 minute history lesson for those readers that did not experience these times in America.
Fear mongering?
Whatever you may think of Beck can we afford to simply ignore his observations, warnings and predictions for this summer? That’s a decision you will have to make for yourself and your family. Do your own homework.
Those of us who lived through 1968 and the sixties know that the City of Milwaukee was not immune to the coordinated, violent protests that were occurring across our nation and around the world during this time.
In fighting the War on Terror on Jihad, President Barack Obama should be grateful to a vital American company like Boeing for its contributions to that fight. Instead—and not surprisingly—the Commander-in-Chief put politics ahead of American jobs in South Carolina by allowing his National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), along with labor unions to lodge a complaint, and then a lawsuit, against Boeing, claiming that the company intended to punish unions by moving its facility to South Carolina.
When Boeing announced it would build a major facility in Charleston, South Carolina, the labor unions claimed that the reason for the new (and that's the key to this disput) facility was retaliation against union labor at Boeing's existing operations in Seattle and Washington State. The union has had a history of calling strikes against Boeing. But in South Carolina, a right-to-work state, unions are weak. However the greasy fingerprints of politics is all over this issue and is a major element in the ongoing battle, as demonstrated by this November 29 CNSNEWS story outlining that the NLRB wants to rule on issues prior to the expiration of an Obama Administration recess appointment to the NLRB. Without Obama’s appointee, most of the Administration's agenda would likely be dead on arrival.
It’s difficult to understand how in today’s dismal economy, our president isn’t bright enough to see how this aerospace titan’s plans for a $750 million factory and its hiring of nearly 100 “lazy American workers” to build the world’s most fuel-efficientcommercial jetliner might be a proverbial “feather in his hat.” But evidently he’s more interested in special interest donations to his 2012 campaign.
Conversely, the president sure loves to take his props when other Boeing product’s like its unmanned military aircraft which for the most part makes Obama look as though he’s engaged in, and winning the “War on Terror,” or is he?

Union Drops Charges Against Boeing
During contract negotiations with Boeing, the International Association of Machinists (IAM) agreed to drop their charges against the company for building a new plant in South Carolina. This is a victory for conservatives. The National Labor Relations Board’s (NLRB) attempt to dictate where businesses invest has failed. Continue reading…
