The Mayflower Compact
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—–
“We the People”
"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

- Snarky POTUS… 2013-06-29Despite what the diehards on MSNBC and CNN would have you believe, the President’s poll numbers are dropping. No longer hovering around the 49 percent approval rating, they have now begun a marching decline, with the last RCP average at … Continue reading →patriot64

“The Ten Cannots”
1. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. 2. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. 3. You cannot help little men by tearing down big men. 4. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. 5. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. 6. You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money. 7. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. 8. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn. 9. You cannot build character and courage by destroying men's initiative and independence. 10. And you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.

Change the channel…
The issue of free speech has been a topic of debate at unprecedented levels throughout the era of Obama. Consequently, the very self-proclaimed spokespeople for freedom of expression and tolerance have demonstrated clearly thus far, and by way of an … Continue reading
“Obamacare” is symptomatic of a larger ailment…
So now your tax dollars are being spent, (to the tune of a million or so dollars), to seek out “Obamacare” success stories? And if that isn’t bad enough, we have to listen to sycophants like Juan Williams bashing anyone … Continue reading
Democrats now own the “nuclear option”…
In the end, it was Democrats who elected to use the so-called “nuclear option”. There is a certain irony to this as they were so openly critical when Republicans were in the majority and there was talk of such an … Continue reading
The shrinking Obama approval rating…
As Democrats struggle to find a way to reconcile “Obamacare” heading into the 2014 election cycle, it’s been entertaining as all get out to watch their standard-bearer roll them under the proverbial bus. It’s also amusing watching and listening to … Continue reading
Presidential Press…
As we are witnessing great social and economic turmoil in our country, many of us look to the news as a source of unbiased information regarding the events of the day. This is not unusual in a free society, and we … Continue reading
“Moral authority”???
When Chris Matthews starts talking about “moral authority” I think to myself, this idiot wouldn’t know “moral authority” if it ran over him. Nevertheless, he was referring to Republicans and how (he) felt they lacked any moral authority on the … Continue reading
The “language” of ideology…
As expected “The Affordable Care and Patient Protection Act” is imploding before our very eyes. The stories of folks being dropped from their existing plans or receiving radical premium increases can no longer be ignored or explained away by “School … Continue reading
“Wins and losses”…
One day after the President and Harry Reid won their battle against House Republicans and successfully kicked the budget can down the road once again, we’re still left with the lowest labor participation rate in 40 years, the most lopsided … Continue reading
“Glitch” or prelude to catastrophe…
One thing can be said for President Obama, and that is he continually provides fodder for the feast… I chuckled recently when I heard the POTUS compare what media sycophants are calling “glitches”, to roll out issues with “Apple Corporation’s … Continue reading
More “Froaming” from Froma…
Froma Harrop continues her non-sensical assault on certain members of the Republican Party. Truthfully, she’s almost hard to follow at times through all the hypocrisy. Now “before I go on”, let me say Harrop apparently still doesn’t grasp the reality of our “Republic”, nor … Continue reading
Gut check time…
With only seventeen percent of government actually shut down, it’s hard to find the calamity Harry Reid and the Libs are speaking of. This is not to diminish the trials of those needing appropriate satisfaction, in terms of legitimate government … Continue reading
To capitulate or not to capitulate…
A local radio personality was talking about how Republicans need to “learn to lose” and step away from this government shut down. Initially I agreed, more so because of what I understand both parties have become over the last century … Continue reading
“Froaming” at the mouth…
I guess it only takes (some) folks exercising their Constitutional rights to get sycophants like Froma Harrop “froaming” at the mouth. And I always find it interesting when Liberals label all free speech but their own as “extremist”. Admittedly I rather like … Continue reading
Of slings and arrows and shut downs…
The government shutdown is certainly politics in its rawest form, with both sides vying for a toehold on the issue of a continuing resolution that would only fund the government until November 15 (Senate) or December 15 (House). That aside, the … Continue reading
The Death of Principle…
Liberals in Congress are referring to the people’s elected representatives as “Legislative arsonists”, “anarchists”, “black mailers” and “terrorists”. The Left Wing ideology of hypocrisy has always been easy to see if you’re looking. Ultimately, one need only consider President Obama’s … Continue reading
Not too big to fail…
It’s unlikely Obamacare will be de-funded. This reality is born of voter apathy and ignorance as well as an utterly confusing counter message from Republicans. “A house divided” comes to mind when I listen to recent statements coming from the … Continue reading
Obamacare “Bait and Switch”…
The POTUS continues his “Obamacare” Campaign, running around touting the 2010 Congressional vote on the PPACA, the SCOTUS decision, and his second term, as proof his signature achievement is somehow the people’s will. It’s truly amazing how Liberals can manipulate reality, … Continue reading
“Under God”…
The fight over “God in the pledge” in the Bay State isn’t surprising. Massachusetts has long been a bastion of Progressive thought. But it reminded me of the bigger fight over freedom of religion in this country. You see, the so-called … Continue reading
America then and now…
As events in Syria continue to shape the news, I thought it interesting how the conversation has shifted somewhat to whether or not the U.S. has a “moral responsibility” to act. Additionally, the question of how America sees things in relation … Continue reading
The President’s Conundrum…
Bill O’Reilly’s commentary on Tuesday was nearly spot on, nearly… He spoke of the nobility of the United States. He spoke of how our great nation has righted many wrongs, and of the literally hundreds of millions of people we … Continue reading
“Labor Day” 2013, a contradiction in terms…
The POTUS commented in his weekly radio address that so long as he is president he will continue to fight for the hard for working men and women of the “middle class”. I thought this ironic coming from a Chief … Continue reading
Timing is everything…
I remain conflicted about the road forward in Syria, and frustrated to say the least with the lack of leadership our President has shown on matters of an international nature. Indecision born of ideological theory and inexperience has left Mr. Obama, (and … Continue reading
The New Egyptian Strong Man…
(“Whereas Americans believe in “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” Islamic cultures cling to principles of “fairness, justice, equality, unity, and charity,” he argued. Americans look to their republic’s Founding Fathers for guidance; Muslims cherish the memory of the ancient … Continue reading
Mission accomplished???
I’m sure even the President’s most committed critics could not have imagined some of what has transpired over the past five years. Notably, I think Mr. Obama’s legacy in terms of the economy is striking, as his policies are now … Continue reading
J-O-B-S…
I was chatting with a Liberal friend recently who chuckled and reminded me how the stock market was “roaring” under Obama, at which point I promptly schooled him on what that really meant. Unfortunately, I couldn’t just stop at unsustainably low fed … Continue reading
That’s fifty more than Solyndra Mr. President…
When the President of the United States jokes about the creation of sorely needed jobs in this country, it speaks to an almost palpable, albeit foolish reluctance to engage in any meaningful debate on the matter. In the case of the “Keystone XL … Continue reading
Hillary The Movie…
I think it was “Healthcare 93” when I first started paying attention to the notion Hillary Rodham Clinton had bigger plans than just being married to Bill. It concerned me then as the politically ambitious First Lady was already demonstrating an … Continue reading
Parents passing the buck???
There will always be ideological disagreement. It’s one of many benefits of liberty, the right of free speech and debate. I remain convinced those rights carry responsibility as well. Nevertheless, I continue to search for the reason why our nation is in … Continue reading
“Hitting the nail on the head”…
Bill O’Reilly is leading the way in the cable news network wars to be sure, and has been for some time. He is obviously an intelligent man with an all-American background through which he filters much of his commentary. While there … Continue reading
Leno he’s not…
I’m always a bit troubled when the POTUS attempts a little “stand-up” at pre-determined events for propaganda purposes. Now while I understand Republicans in the House will not be on many Christmas lists this year, it does seem pretty clear … Continue reading
Bring back “Pizza Fridays”…
I was interested to read about the failure of the “Obama school menu” (Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act or HHFK), in the Washington Times this morning. Moreover, I wondered how the “Socialistas” are dealing with the fact the Feds have once … Continue reading
“Rush” Bashing…
“Rush” bashing… Rush Limbaugh has certainly parlayed his Conservative viewpoint into a successful broadcasting career. One could measure that success by how Liberal’s foam at the mouth at the mere mention of his name. Personally, I’ve always framed the popular … Continue reading
