Politics is Scandalous
For weeks I’ve been visiting the Huffington Post and looking for stories on Benghazi. To nobody’s surprise, I found almost nothing. On the days that big stories broke on even the major news networks, nothing was to be found on the HuffPo. The last few days have been quite different – Benghazi everywhere! When the IRS and AP stories broke, nothing on HuffPo, but the stories are mentioned now. Is the HuffPo that slow to respond to news? The stories are to be found on the biggest political blog in the world, but they were buried for bigger headlines like Angelina’s mastectomy and the ills of cheap labor overseas. All of those recent stories on the scandal subjects are, of course, in defense of the administration. Go figure. Peter Goodman praises the … Read entire article »

Judge Napolitano: “They violated the most core protected rights under the constitution…”
Judge Napolitano does a great job in the below segment explaining the process the DOJ must to go through to obtain a subpoena for the phone records of hundreds of AP reporters. On the surface it doesn’t appear they followed procedures and the Judge rips them for it. Check it out. I’m not sure how deep the rabbit hole runs on this one. I do know that a majority of Americans are still not tuned into any of these scandals and why I will not be surprised if all of them eventually run out of gas. It’s just the way it is in America. Too many people have their heads and the sand and they can’t see that their liberties are being stripped from them. Liberty forever, freedom for all! … Read entire article »

This is the type of government our founders rejected
We need to get back to the basics as a people. With all the scandals, corruption, attacks on our gun rights, attacks on our free speech, attacks on our faith, ignoring the constitution, crushing taxes, usurpations of states rights, suffocating regulations, and government using its institutions to threaten and impose its will on the people we need to find our way back to liberty and reject tyranny. Take a good look, because this is what a soft tyranny looks like and we own it!. This is the type of government our Founding Fathers rejected and we too should reject it. 236 years ago our founders stood against the type of despotic government we have today and eloquently listed their grievances against the Crown in the Declaration of Independence. We hold these … Read entire article »

Teeing it up: A Round at the LINKs (Late edition)
Today was a work day,,,in the yard, This is why my Sunday link round-up is getting out so late. This winter was extremely hard on my grass and it’s having a very difficult time of it. So yesterday and today I spent most of the day raking, aerating, fertilizing and watering my back and front yard. Anyone who knows me knows I’m about my yard; something I got from my father. So I’ve been going at it full throttle for the past two days. It was a very busy week in the news from the Benghazi hearing to the IRS targeting conservative organizations. I was telling a friend that it feels as if things are beginning to come undone for the administration at least from a conservative viewpoint. None of … Read entire article »

Once again the lamestream media buries the Benghazi story
Once again the lamestream media is doing its part to bury the Benghazi story. When it comes to this administration and Hillary Clinton they’re all in and will do whatever is necessarily to protect both. The other day on his radio show, Mark Levin called them the Praetorian media after the Roman Emperor’s personal bodyguards called the Praetorian Guard. Their function is much like the Praetorian Guard of ancient Rome; protect the emperor at all cost. Bernie Goldberg does an excellent job breaking this down in the below clip. Mr. Goldberg nailed it when he said, “Because there are Millions and millions and millions of Americans who are like babies who like to follow shiny objects. These people don’t care about Benghazi…” The uninformed voter strikes again and this is a … Read entire article »

Kirsten Powers on Benghazi Hearing: “The behavior of the Democrats was astonishing…”
What really happened in Benghazi on September 11, 2012? Was there a cover-up? What did Hillary Clinton and the President know? Today three high ranking State Department Officials who had first-hand knowledge of the events that unfolded in Benghazi on September 11th testified before congress on what they knew about the attack. I found them to be extremely credible and I believe them. But it doesn’t matter if I believe them or if all the conservatives in America believe them. If Democrats don’t believe them then no matter what the truth is we will not be able to hold those accountable for failing to act and for misleading the American people. It will take a few prominent Democrats to stand up for what is right to add credibility to this … Read entire article »

Forgetting Benghazi
There is a lot being said right now about Benghazi in Washington. Granted, it’s not being said by the White House and it’s not being said by democrats. Try finding a reference to Benghazi on the HuffPo, CNN, MSNBC, or NYTimes websites without using the search feature and you’ll be out of luck. The NYTimes hasn’t written anything on Benghazi in months, even though Benghazi is the 5th most searched topic on their website. CNN has the story buried, but it’s the 4th most popular search on their website. It’s interesting how terrorist raids on embassies and ruthless serial killer abortion doctors aren’t newsworthy. People are talking though. It’s sad, but 6 months after the murder of 4 Americans, we still haven’t been given the truth by the State Department of … Read entire article »

North Dakota Floating on Oil, How will Obama Stop it?
We know there is a oil boom going on under the northern plains. In fact, it appears that North Dakota is virtually floating on oil. However, the scope of it is only now being realized. The Lid has the facts… It isn’t new news that there is oil and natural gas under the ground in North Dakota. The news is the latest estimate of the U.S. Geological Survey which reports that reservoir of fossil fuel is double the oil and triple the natural gas originally projected. The new find makes the North Dakota oil field the largest ever on the continental US–even larger than the Texas oil fields that made J.R. Ewing famous. The fossil fuel fields (Bakken and Three Forks) are shale formations and can be … Read entire article »

Teeing it up: A Round at the LINKs (NEW tire edition)
Today I thought I would share a little story about government regulations and the impact they have on the little guy (me). Last week noticed that one of the tires on my wife’s car had a slow leak. I examined the tire and couldn’t find any nails or screws that could have possibly punctured it. I pumped the tire back up to the recommended PSI and waited. Three days later the tire was low again. I used some bubble solution around the stem and still could not find anything. So I made an appointment at the local tire store like I had done in the past with two other tires I had fixed. I went into the store expecting to pay for the cost of fixing the leak (around $40). … Read entire article »

Democrats are getting nervous about 42 percent…
For the last few weeks some Democrats have been expressing their deep concerns about the implementation of ObamaCare. During a budget hearing that featured Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius,one of the law’s chief architects Senator Max Baucus stated that he sees a huge train wreck coming in regards to implementation of ObamaCare. And the full impact of this train wreck will be felt by the midterm elections in 2014. Making matters much worse for the Democrats was a recent poll by Kaiser Family Foundation that revealed that 42 percent of Americans are unaware that ObamaCare is still the law of the land. The uninformed voter doesn’t even realize what is coming, but they soon will and this is making the Democrats very nervous. The same uninformed voters who … Read entire article »

Benghazi: Officials are finally coming out of the shadows with explosive new information
The mainstream media has tried extremely hard to bury the story, but the tragic events surrounding the attack on our compound in Benghazi that led to the death of four Americans will not go away. With little to no answers the administration that promised to leave no stone unturned in order get to the bottom of this is now taking a “nothing to see here…move along” attitude. The proverbial “These are not the droids you’re looking for” line from Star Wars appears to be the tactic this administration is running with. However, new information from inside sources appears to contradict the administration’s claims that there was no possible way to rescue our citizens who died in the attack. Maybe there is something to see here. Make no mistake folks, in … Read entire article »

CIA Wanted Tamerlan Tsarnaev on Terrorist Watch List: Media Silent
As the true nature of the Boston Marathon Bombing comes to light, the more incompetence is discovered. We know that the Russians warned us as to the radicalization of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, but no action was taken. Now we see that the CIA continued to want Tsarnaev on the watch list… The lying is profound, and mirrors the constantly changing narrative on the Saudi national who was first grilled in the Boston bombing. Now this: CIA Wanted Boston Bombing Suspect Placed on Terror Watchlist Breitbart The CIA directly asked the FBI to place Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the elder of the two suspected Boston Marathon bombers, on its counterterrorism watchlist handled by the National Counterterrorism Center. That request came after the Russian government asked the CIA to keep an eye on Tsarnaev. It also came … Read entire article »

Teeing it up: A Round at the LINKs (Spring has finally arrived edition)
Well Spring is finally here in North Dakota. After what felt like 9 months of winter the weather finally broke this past week as temperatures trended upwards for the first time and after six months on the ground the snow began to melt. Even though my backyard is a soupy mess it’s a welcome mess because birds are singing and that tells me that golfing is right around the corner. Yesterday it was 70 degrees so the wife and I took some time to enjoy the day. Afterwards I washed her car and cleaned up our garage. It felt so good to be outside in a t-shirt. I’m so ready for summer! Anyway I wanted to share my joy. Now on to the LINKs. Below are links to articles by … Read entire article »

Mayor Bloomberg’s twisted “interpretation” of America
Mayor Michael Bloomberg believes our interpretation of the constitution needs to change to allow for greater security to stave off future attacks like the Boston Marathon bombings. And my guess is sadly many people agree with him. During a press conference Mr. Bloomberg said, “The people who are worried about privacy have a legitimate worry, but we live in a complex world where you’re going to have to have a level of security greater than you did back in the olden days, if you will. And our laws and our interpretation of the Constitution, I think, have to change.” Does this guy know anything about our constitution and why the Founding Fathers crafted in the manner they did? It’s apparent he does not. By trading our liberties for some sort of … Read entire article »

It’s called the “Marketplace Fairness Act” and it’s anything but fair…
Well Congress is at it again. They’re trying to ram through a bill called the “Marketplace Fairness Act” and it’s anything but fair. It’s a bill that would fundamentally change interstate commerce by imposing tax burdens on Internet-based businesses while not applying the same burdens to brick-and-mortar companies. It’s extremely discriminatory by its very nature. Representative Mike Enzi (R, Wyo) tried to introduce this flawed bill back in February, but it met stiff opposition in committee so Enzi was forced to shelve it. Two months later it has been restructured so that it qualifies for a Senate rule that allows Harry Reid to bypass committee debate and bring it straight to the floor. This is how Congress rams through unpopular/controversial bills it doesn’t want examined or debated with a critical … Read entire article »

It was a tough week for America. Three major events occurred in the span of a few days. From the Boston Bombings to the Ricin attack on our elected officials Americans have been glued to the news.

The Boston Bombings: Don’t let evil steal our liberties…
Yesterday marked the beginning of the Revolutionary War when British Regulars marched on the towns of Lexington and Concord to impose England’s will on the colonists in 1775. The British goals were to arrest Patriot Leaders Samuel Adams and John Hancock and capture the stores of munitions in Concord. Many colonists viewed this as a direct and immediate threat to their liberties and freedom. After years of having their concerns ignored by the Crown and the British Parliament the colonists had finally decided enough was enough. They were no longer going to stand idly by and allow the Crown to alter their way of life. It was time to send a message and it was citizens soldiers (Militia) that sent it on that day. It was the shot that was … Read entire article »

The spirit of Paul Revere and William Dawes still lives in those who love liberty
On this day in 1775 Paul Revere and Dr. William Dawes set out on horseback from Boston to warn Patriot leaders Samuel Adams and John Hancock that the British regulars were marching on Lexington and to arrest them and then on to Concord to confiscate the weapons hidden there by the colonists. Below is an account of the event. By 1775, tensions between the American colonies and the British government had approached the breaking point, especially in Massachusetts, where Patriot leaders formed a shadow revolutionary government and trained militias to prepare for armed conflict with the British troops occupying Boston. In the spring of 1775, General Thomas Gage, the British governor of Massachusetts, received instructions from Great Britain to seize all stores of weapons and gunpowder accessible to the American insurgents. … Read entire article »

Bill Maher believes the second amendment is “bullsh*t”
Bill Maher and his brain trust discuss the second amendment and gun rights in the below clip. These people are absolutely clueless about the second amendment and why the right of the people to bear arms is so important. They believe in the notion that an all powerful benevolent government would never impose its will on the people. The one thing I noticed was as the conversation progressed Bob Costas began to reveal just who he was. According him those who support our right to bear arms are all paranoid. He states we’re paranoid because we’re afraid the government might one day go too far and grow out of control. Well Mr. Costas I wonder if the Founding Fathers were just as paranoid when it came to the people having the … Read entire article »

Teeing it up: A Round at the LINKs (Lincoln Assassination edition)
On this day in 1865,Confederate sympathizer and actor John Wilkes Booth fatally shot President Abraham Lincoln at the Ford’s Theater in Washington, D.C. Via History.com Abraham Lincoln’s killer, John Wilkes Booth, was a Maryland native born in 1838 who remained in the North during the Civil War despite his Confederate sympathies. As the conflict entered its final stages, he and several associates hatched a plot to kidnap the president and take him to Richmond, the Confederate capital. However, on March 20, 1865, the day of the planned kidnapping, Lincoln failed to appear at the spot where Booth and his six fellow conspirators lay in wait. Two weeks later, Richmond fell to Union forces. In April, with Confederate armies near collapse across the South, Booth came up with a desperate plan to save … Read entire article »

Senator John Hoeven must stand with the “New Blood” or risk losing my support
I’ve never been a single issue voter; but that long held position was pushed to its limit when I found out my senator (John Hoeven) voted to allow debate in the Senate on gun control. I was so mad I went to his Facebook page and posted the following; “I will not support you again Senator. You know this vote opens the door for a Democratic majority to ram through whatever they want with a simple majority vote. You knew this and you voted for it any way. Today you stood against the constitution and the peoples’ right to bear arms. You should be ashamed of yourself. “ I meant every word at the time. Mark Levin hammered the 16 Republican Senators who voted to move forward with the debate. He stated … Read entire article »

Communism survivor Manuel Martinez understands the importance of the 2nd Amendment
This has to be one of the most powerful testimonies I’ve heard in support of gun rights and the right to bear arms. Manuel Martinez a survivor of the communist revolution in Cuba delivered powerful testimony last week in Salem, Oregon. I’ll let the clip speak for itself. H/T Daylight Disinfectant “You people don’t know what freedom is because you never lost it!” Mr. Martinez gets it because he has witnessed and experienced tyranny first hand. His understanding of the 2nd amendment is the same understanding our found fathers had. Not one time in his speech did I hear him say anything about hunting. He knows how important it is for the people to have the means to defend themselves against tyranny. Is it going to take a tyrannical government that imposes … Read entire article »

MSNBC Talking Head Melissa Harris-Perry: All Your Children are Belong to Us
I think it’s getting even more amazing for the regressives in that they are slipping more and more. And, in that slippage, they’re letting out more and more of their ideas, and they don’t even get that it’s the most totalitarian drivel. I guess if you live in the unreality bubble, it’s a matter of time before you slip and think that tyranny is the normal state of man. In the latest example of regressive truth slippage, we have Melissa Harris-Perry, who happens to think that all of your children are belong to us.

Here are some historical references… When an opponent declares, “I will not come over to your side,” … Read entire article »

This past weekend Senators John McCain and Chuck Schumer attacked the plan by a hand full of Republicans to filibuster any gun control bill that might be brought up in the Senate. Check out the below clip. Katie Pavlich from Townhall.com wrote a great article on this topic a few weeks ago. In the article she stated that a filibuster would be a “brilliant move by Paul and Cruz. Reid has already had the ability to protect Democrats from voting on the assault weapons ban, but a filibuster on criminalization legislation would force Reid to either try and stop the talking, which will bring attention to gun control efforts of vulnerable Democrats or will be forced to allow a filibuster to continue, preventing a vote on the legislation.“ You can read … Read entire article »

So you think the tradition of marriage is safe…you won’t after you listen to this
On my way to work this morning I caught the tail end of a segment that I personally found disturbing on the Mike Church show. Mr. Church was talking about that comments made about the tradition of marriage by an American/Russian journalist name Masha Gessen who is a lesbian and gay activist. I got to work and wrote down the name so I could research it later. Below is audio clip I found that relates to this story. I believe you will find it quite revealing. “Fighting for gay marriage generally involves lying about what we are going to do with marriage when we get there — because we lie that the institution of marriage is not going to change, and that is a lie. The institution of marriage is going … Read entire article »

Is the ammo shortage an illusion…this guy thinks so
Gun enthusiasts all over the country have been dealing with an ammunition shortage. Just this past weekend I searched for 9mm rounds at all my favorite stops and to no surprise the cupboards were bare. This “shortage” has forced me to conserve the ammunition I have on hand. I’ve curtailed my range time and like many am frustrated that I can’t find my favorite caliber anywhere. Now there are many explanations floating around as to why there is a shortage. Many believe that the high demand for ammunition after the Sandy Hook shootings caught the ammo manufacturers off guard and they simply could not produce enough to keep up with the demand. That sounds reasonable enough. Then there is the government purchasing large amounts of ammunition for the DHS, EPA, and … Read entire article »

Here at home our most basic and sacred beliefs are being questioned and at times ridiculed by forces who wish to diminish the importance Christianity plays in our society.

Three Mile Island: A look back at America’s worst nuclear accident
On this day in 1979 America experienced its worst nuclear accident at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant. I lived about two hours north of Harrisburg and remember reading a book on our living room floor as my parents sat in their chairs, eyes glued to the special report that was covering the event. I of course had no idea how serious the event was; however by the look on my parents face they most definitely understood how serious it was. Today I want to take the time to reflect back on 28 March 1979. Below is a five part PBS documentary on the accident. Please take some time to watch the clips. It really makes you think how lucky we were on that day considering how close we were … Read entire article »

Bill O’Reilly & Glenn Beck discuss the indoctrination of our children and “Common Core”
Glenn Beck sat down with Bill O’Reilly last night and discussed the indoctrination of our children this is taking place in our public schools. Glenn Beck touched on a standard called “Common Core” and how it’s designed to dumb down our children. Listen to the below exchange between Mr. Beck and Mr. O’Reilly. Mr. Beck discusses “Common Core” in more detail in the below clip. It’s 28 minutes long but definitely worth the watch. Folks this is a very serious issue. We cannot allow our children to be indoctrinated by the left or right and we cannot allow our children to be cheated from acquiring the critical thinking and problem solving skills needed to be successful in life. If “Common Core” is as bad as Mr. Beck asserts, then it must be … Read entire article »

Cultural Marxists Argue to Assert Who is the Greatest Victim…
Take a look at the following video, as the moonbats argue to vie over the greater slice of the victim pie. Apparently, their victim-hood is just like their economic model, and it’s a zero sum game. There is only so much victimization to go around, so they have to fight and struggle their greater slice of the victim-hood pie. Think uber victim. Try to watch a few minutes… Ok, there is a lot of screaming and talking in circles, but you get the gist of it. There was much offense taken, butthurt inflicted, and drama generated. I particularly enjoyed the part in which they complained that they were being talked over. As leftists, they ought to know that this is one of their chief tool.
