The Barack Obama Administration has been absolutely atrocious in signing off on terrible legislation and policy prescriptions. ObamaCare. The $878 billion alleged “stimulus.” The $30 billion bump (to $50 billion) of the General Motors bailout. Cash for Clunkers. Cash for
Big Government has learned of a shocking new dimension to the emerging Fisker Karma scandal: not only is the U.S. taxpayer-backed car manufactured overseas, but it is far less fuel-efficient than its main American competitor, the Chevrolet Volt. ABC News
The White House has denied pressuring Ford to pull its ad that criticizes competitors that took and have yet to repay taxpayer dollars from the Troubled Asset Relief Program. However, the Obama administration can’t deny a new gift it showers
These articles are not being written as justifications for promoting a war between the U.S. and China. That would be foolishness beyond the extreme. In fact, the exact opposite is true. It is only through maintaining our competitive economic, military,
We have spoken often of this last four years being the Third Age of Bailout. Where we have seen trillions of dollars of our coin shoveled out of D.C. in innumerable terrible directions. A $1.09 trillion, 29% increase in annual
There has been news aplenty about the Solyndra solar power company. The chock-full-of-Barack-Obama-Administration-cronies-and-donors corporation that received more than half a billion dollars in government-guaranteed loans to build the alleged future of energy. Which President Obama hailed as such after the
You’ve heard the expression “building on success.” Where you identify something that’s working – and work to maximize and further broaden its fruition. In large part by determining what’s working – and seeking to replicate it. The Left has always
The transformation of General Motors (GM) to Government Motors (GM) has cost a lot of Americans a lot of money. Many, many of them under questionable and in fact illegal circumstances. Let us begin with the $50 billion ‘We the
President Obama has made a big deal out of corporate jets. Apparently they are a symbol not of success but of greed. Yet even as the private jet marked has lagged with the ongoing recession, President Obama’s own employees in
Ed. Note: Please make Amelia feel welcome so she comes back! –JN My hometown of Traverse City, Michigan has also been home to the Traverse City Film Festival (TCFF) since Michael Moore established it in 2005. When Moore announced this
In this, the third Age of Bailout, the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP)’s $50 billion General Motors (GM) bailout (upped from $20 billion by President Barack Obama) is yet another unmitigated disaster. But a few of the many failures: GM
The Obama Administration has threatened to veto the House of Representative’s “Cut, Cap and Balance” deficit reduction legislation; because it does not preserve what the President refers to as “investments that encourage economic growth”. A signature example of that Presidential
For many years, liberals have been gushing with enthusiasm over the prospect of a totally-green planet, one where CO2 emissions are a thing of the past (but wouldn’t that kill green plants?), wind turbines spin like glittering pinwheels in a
In the Bizarro-world that is Washington, D.C. – and the federal government in possession thereof – the word “success” does not mean what it does here on Planet Earth. It in fact often means exactly the opposite. Let us take
From Accuracy in Media‘s Michael Watson and Val Jensen II: Richard Stengel’s take on the U.S. Constitution tries to dispel the tea party movement’s claims that certain recent policies under the Obama administration are unconstitutional. The main argument is set
General Motors (GM) continues apace its government-backed conversion from a company existing to manufacture automobiles for money – into a fully-formed, Leftist ideological entity working as another wing of the Barack Obama Administration’s fundamental transformation of America. A de facto
We are in the throes of the Barack Obama Administration’s systematic, systemic assault of the free market. Every facet of our nation where private endeavor has brought us to the heights of individual achievement and general populace betterment is now
President Obama’s speech on the Middle East at the State Department last week, his icy glares at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office last Friday, his address before the AIPAC conference on Sunday, and his subsequent press
We have seen a wide array of Barack Obama Administration wings make up jobs numbers and claims in an attempt to bolster un-bolsterable policies. First there were the gigs – not created, but allegedly “created or saved” – as the
Taxpayers bail out a corporation and the corporation spends money to sponsor a Chinese propaganda film. This is how the game works with the Left. Think about it… Taxpayers fund Planned Parenthood and then that abortion mill turns around and
Yet another not so great week for Government Motors (GM). A pseudo-private company of which We the People still possess 33% – residual ownership that dates back to the combined December 2008/May 2009 $49.9 billion bailout. At first glance, you
General Motors says its first-quarter net income more than tripled on strong car sales in the U.S. and China
One of the things I’ve always liked about charter schools is they aren’t bound by onerous labor agreements that hamper innovation. Traditional public schools get boxed in with union contracts that literally stipulate when a teacher arrives in the morning
