July 1st"Domestic terrorists" gear up for July 4th tea parties Joan Swirsky On April 15, over a million people — who had already smelled the contaminated coffee of the Obama regime's galloping socialism-cum-communism-cum totalitarianism — attended thousands of Tea Parties across the country. Since then, the Tea Party movement has grown exponentially, with hundreds more taking place on a regular basis and attended by Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Libertarians, et al — all increasingly horrified at Obama's breakneck efforts to destroy free-market capitalism, inflict decades of debt on future generations, spit on the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, employ...

snip "I am afraid that things will only get worse as the split in the power structure progresses," he said. Arash expressed concern about the uncertain fate of those who have been arrested and especially the hundreds of political and human rights activists currently in detention. Arash's concerns are echoed by many Iran analysts and human-rights organizations that believe political and rights activists in prison are under pressure - possibly being tortured - to confess to cooperation with foreign governments intent on overthrowing the regime. Judiciary Spokesman Alireza Jamshidi reported that a special committee has been set up to investigate...

The big question is this: How/What are you doing/putting in place in order to survive the coming OBAMDEPRESSION?

The have a reply now. And it has nothing to do with Sarah Palin saying if she runs she can beat Obama. It has nothing to do with her...

Barack Obama called for House passage of the cap and trade tax bill last Friday by calling it a jobs bill. The bill is designed to raise the price of energy in the U.S. so much that it will reduce the use of fossil fuels by 17% by 2020 and by 83% by 2050. Sentencing the U.S. economy to high cost energy is not a particularly good strategy for creating jobs. The Charles River Associates, a Harvard based economics consulting firm, estimates a net loss of jobs from the bill of about 2.5 million each year. This is surely a...

Moghaddam, the police chief, said Iranian intelligence officials were seeking Dr. Arash Hejazi, an Iranian doctor who tried to save Neda Agha Soltan after she was fatally shot on the sidelines of one of the demonstrations. Hejazi, who has since fled to London, told the BBC last week that Soltan — who became an opposition icon after video of her bleeding to death was circulated worldwide — apparently was shot by a member of the volunteer Basij militia. He said protesters spotted an armed member of the militia on a motorcycle, and stopped and disarmed him. But Moghaddam described the...

According to the dictionary, government owning or controlling the means of economic production and distribution of goods and services is socialism. Socialism is the transitional stage of Marxism between capitalism and communism. Fascism is a government that puts the nation above the individual, is headed up by a dictatorial leader with all control in the hands of an autocratic central government. Marxism, socialism, fascism, etc, all feature severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition. Free elections? Yeah, right. Marxism, socialism, fascism, etc are all UNAMERICAN! They are diametrically opposite of the constitutional republican form of government established...

"But I am from Africa and my grandfather was never a Muslim nor was he a Christian." He was shocked when I said that. "It is OK...

I know a girl who gets somewhat uptight when she's in the passenger seat of a car going any more than 70 mph. However, put her on some insane roller coaster, and she's just fine. The driving dangers are real, you see. Whereas the roller-coaster ride just feels wonderfully stomach-turning. And so it is with this charming new online ad for Internet Explorer 8 from Microsoft. In most of its advertising, Microsoft has rarely reached 70 mph. But someone, somewhere deep within Microsoft, finally had the craving for the roller coaster. Here we have a couple at the breakfast table....
