Eight GOP Senators Vote To Keep Earmarks

For those who thought November solved our problems, that’s little than wishful thinking.

In addition to this betrayal on earmarks, the House GOP leadership just announced plans to keep the popular provisions of ObamaCare in any Republican alternative.

No one is asking, but my advice to the tea party movement is to start developing plans for the next step once the Republican Party let’s the American people down…it’s no longer a question of if, it’s only a matter of when.

Too Much Money, Too Many Buckets

By Ed Braddy
American Dream Coalition

In Osceola County, commissioners are trying to close a $2.8 million dollar budget deficit and the county manager wants to cut $650,000 from fire rescue.

Yet these same hand-wringers recently spent $9.2 million to purchase 370 acres for land conservation.

Gotta keep that land out of the hands of greedy developers, right?

Just Another WikiLeak On An Already Sinking Ship

This has not been a good month for the Obama Doctrine:

The President came home empty-handed from Asia, North Korea fired artillery at South Korea just days after revealing nuclear facilities no one knew they had, and Obama failed to get the G-20 to take any action limiting trade imbalances.

It was not supposed to be this way. After apologizing for all of our nation’s sins, the world was supposed to swoon at President Obama’s unparalleled charisma.

“This Is Why The American People Have Thrown You Out Of Power.”

Republican Rep. Steve Buyer goes off on acting House Speaker Rep. Laura Richardson (D) over the power games she was playing by refusing to recognize him to speak even though there was no one else there to object to him being recognized.

As she continued to deny him the right to speak, Buyer then said, “This is why the American People have thrown you out of power.”

Cyber Sales Has Lawmakers Seeing Red

We hear a lot lately about how lean Florida government is and anytime there’s talk of cutting expenses, the focus shifts immediately to teachers and education. This is little than a sham designed to force taxpayers to feel the effects of any sacrifices, thereby, teaching us a valuable lesson for having the audacity to expect cutbacks in government.

Funny how we never seem to have the money to pay our teachers…but if you’re interested in a shiny new train, step right this way!
