Did Obama Reverse the Recession

2011-08-16T17:33:00.000-07:00

At a town hall style meeting in Decorah, Iowa President Obama said "We had reversed the recession, avoided a depression, gotten the economy moving again.......But over the last six months we've had a run of bad luck." It is time to examine that statement in light the data that shows a more accurate accounting of how President Obama has, or more to the point, has not handled this economy. How

How Can The Government Actually Stimulate The Economy? by: Brent Ryan

2010-03-01T16:56:00.001-08:00

People make the right decisions far more often than the government ever has, does, or will. I think that the best form of government is one that encourages, facilitate, and empower the individual citizen to make their own individual choices on how to live their lives. I feel that this translates to the government trying its best to get out of the way much more often than 'providing' anything. I

Obama's Health Care Plan is Useless by: Sonny Julius

2010-03-01T16:54:00.000-08:00

The health care plan that President Obama has proposes will do nothing to solve our health care crisis. All the plan will do is help those who now have sickness or diseases to help them pay for their treatment and prescription drugs. Now you might say well that's what it should do, doesn't it? Well you are right it will help do that but that doesn't solve our health care crisis. The only thing

Taking America Back - How to Fix the Economy in 365 days without destroying America by: David M Arnold

2010-01-21T20:58:00.000-08:00

It is becoming more obvious as time passes, that, elected officials are no longer representing the American people, but rather, special interest groups. The longer our elected officials serve the more corrupt they become. I have outlined several ways of significant importance that We can take America back and fix the major problems within the economy. Amending the Constitution â€“ It is time to

Taking A Look At The The Future of Gun Control by: Mike Selvon

2010-01-20T17:54:00.001-08:00

What did the founding forefathers mean when they wrote: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed"? Does the 2nd Amendment refer to the right of the state to convene an armed militia to protect against federal tyranny? Or is it the individual person's right to bear arms to protect themselves

A Conservative's Concern About Health Care Reform A Conservative's Concern About Health Care Reform

2009-11-26T13:45:00.000-08:00

To begin, I am not opposed to health care reform, as long as it utilizes sound economic principles and does not involve any control by the government. Here is my opposition to government control of health care. We can't afford it. As a country we now spend more than the amount of money realized in revenue by our poorly formed tax system. How does that translate to main street America? On main

How Big Does A Health Care Have to be In Order to be Big Enough The new House health care bill is now in the neighborhood of 1990 pages. The most important question for Nancy Pelosi and the house Democrats is how big must this beast be in order to be big enough. The projected cost of this bill is $894 billion dollars over the past ten years. The red tape and bureaucracy of past bill is still

Republicans, Stand Up and be Proud of Your Record on Race.

2009-09-13T01:28:00.000-07:00

Republicans, Stand Up and be Proud of Your Record on Race. I am sick and tired of being labeled a racist by liberals simply because I happen to be a conservative. It is the height of arrogance and downright stupidity, and it happens all the time. It is time that we as conservative, and republicans especially, stand up and support our record on race in this country and point out that it

Note to Obama, Please, Please Have Them Hit Back Here.

2009-08-10T05:00:00.000-07:00

This is the opinion of an angry conservative that The Conservative Majority proudly supports. The President and the and the Democratic leadership have asked the "dumb masses" to hit back twice as hard at those of us that oppose the government take over of the medical system. The only reply from "The Conservative Majority" is "bring it own". I say that mainly because I am tired of the Chicago

What Did We Learn From the "Beer Summit"?

2009-08-02T05:56:00.000-07:00

As the whole world has now heard, President Obama had Henry Louis Gates and Sgt. James Crowley over to the White House Thursday for the now infamous "Beer Summit". What did we learn from this summit. Was it a "teachable moment" on race relations in this country? Yes, if you didn't already know how quickly Obama will pull the race card from his deck. Was it a commentary on the conduct of

She's At it Again. Nancy Pelosi Now Attacking Insurance Companies

2009-08-02T05:24:00.000-07:00

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Thursday went off on one of her now famous rants attacking insurance companies accusing them of trying to derail health care reform and prevent. Rep. Pelosi told reporters the following Thursday. "It's almost immoral what they are doing.Of course they've been immoral all along in how they have treated the people that they insure. They are the villains. They have been

Conversations with My Son

2009-07-29T06:14:00.001-07:00

The more I see and hear from our current leadership in Washington and how it plays out with people I meet as I travel around the Southeast, the more I see that people long for real leadership. I look at my four year old son and I wonder who will be the leader of this great nation that inspires him to dream great dreams and challenges him to do great things. Who will be the leader that has a

Will the Minimum Wage Keep the Economy in Recession?

2009-07-28T03:21:00.000-07:00

As of July 24th the federal minimum wage will increase from $6.55 per hour to $7.25 per hour. This will have a negative impact on the economy and will prolong the climate of job loss that we are already suffering through. There is a "feel good" sentiment concerning raising the minimum wage because everyone approves of people at the lower end of the economic scale making more. Here is the

The Only Thing Stupid is the Presidents Comments

2009-07-28T03:20:00.000-07:00

President Obama threw gas on a fire Thursday when, during an interview, he commented on the arrest of black scholar Henry Louis Gates on disorderly conduct charges. "But I think it's fair to say, No. 1, any of us would be pretty angry," Obama said. "No. 2, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home

Maybe Rush Was Right

2009-07-28T02:17:00.001-07:00

Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh made waves earlier this year by saying that he wished Barack Obama would fail. The point was that he wanted the policies of the President to fail because his policies would do tremendous harm to this country. Seven months into this Presidency, we see that maybe Rush was right. Look at what he has done so far. Obama has engineered the bankruptcy of two

Thank You, Jim DeMint

2009-07-26T05:32:00.000-07:00

The Conservative Majority would like to extend our thanks to South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint in his staunch opposition to the attempted forced vote on health care reform by the President and Democrats in Congress. At a time when we needed a voice to be heard over the madness, Sen. DeMint provided that voice. As a result of the opposition of members of congress like Senator DeMint and the

America Beginning to Give Obama the Cold Shoulder

2009-07-25T08:37:00.000-07:00

For the first time in his Presidency Barack Obama has seen his overall approval rating drop below 50% according to Rasmussen's daily Presidential tracking poll. This after a long week where the President has tried to ram a health care reform bill through congress that would cripple the already weak economy with bloated spending and increased deficits. As the promises that Barack Obama made

I want to answer to a commenter on a recent post about Supreme Court Nominee Sonia Sotomayor. This is an argument that my readers might be interested in. First, let me say that Rightardia followed our comment rules and made his point rationally and this is a good debate, so I will leave his comments here for all to review.

Healthcare Battle, It Is About Power

2009-07-21T20:29:00.000-07:00

On Monday Barack Obama, speaking on healthcare reform at a Washington hospital, said "This isn't about me. This isn't about politics. This is about a health care system that is breaking America's families, breaking America's businesses, and breaking America's economy". If President Obama believes this he is not listening to the American people, a majority of whom do not support the President's

Note to Obama, As California Goes So Does America

2009-07-21T20:22:00.000-07:00

California state legislators have come to an agreement to help ease the state budget shortfall in the form of billions of dollars in budget cuts, the opening up drilling off the Santa Barbara coast to raise up to $1.8 billion dollars, and no tax increases. The Obama administrations needs to stand up and take notice at what got California did to get into this situation. These are some of the

"Centrist" Republicans Will Cave on Sotomayor.

2009-07-19T05:34:00.000-07:00

Take note of these names, Senator Richard Lugar (Indiana), Senator Mel Martinez (Florida), and Senator Olympia Snow (Maine). These three Republican Senators are set to cave in to political pressure, or there own liberal leanings, and vote to confirm Sonia Sotomayor as the 111th Associate Justice to the Supreme Court. I know there is political pressure to confirm Sotomayor because she is a woman
