The cross was erected and dedicated to the memory of Maj. Douglas Zembiec, Maj. Ray Mendoza, Lance Cpl. Aaron Austin and Lance Cpl. Robert Zurheide. It replaced another cross that was destroyed by a brush fire in 2003.

Van Jones on Occupy Wall Street: ‘You Haven’t Seen Anything Yet’.......Oh, swell......

Van Jones offered a prediction Wednesday for those who have been watching the Occupy Wall Street movement: “You haven’t seen anything yet.”

Ann Barnhardt Shuts Down Hedge Firm With ‘Going Galt’ Letter....and Atlas Shrugged again....

Ann Barnhardt describes herself as a an “an old-school commercial hedge broker specializing in CATTLE and GRAIN.” And she just shut down her business by delivering a passionate and chilling open letter posted on her website.

“I could no longer tell my clients that their monies and positions were safe in the futures and options markets – because they are not,” she writes. And then she unloads:

Pay to play, brought to you by Washington.....

Again I say....they wonder WHY there's a Tea Party????

Almost exactly a year ago, members of Congress voted overwhelmingly to censure their colleague Rep. Charlie Rangel for bringing dishonor on the House. Then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi summoned the New York Democrat to the well and chastised him for his 11 ethics violations, which included improper fundraising.

This week, Rangel again brought the House into disrepute – but this time he had the full support of his colleagues.

Obama Has A Bush Moment In Bali...

I saw the "Bush" moment over and over and over again....bet ya won't see this ANYWHERE.....

"On way into room, Potus and others at announcement pulled the doors to come in and they wouldn't open. A Secret Service agent in the room jumped up and opened them for them. Delay was less than a minute. "How embarrassing!" Potus said after the door was opened and they were walking in."

Ann Coulter...she likes Romney - I DON'T...but she's right about Newt...

In addition to having an affair in the middle of Clinton's impeachment; apologizing to Jesse Jackson on behalf of J.C. Watts -- one of two black Republicans then in Congress –- for having criticized "poverty pimps," and then inviting Jackson to a State of the Union address; cutting a global warming commercial with Nancy Pelosi; supporting George Soros' candidate Dede Scozzafava in a congressional special election; appearing in public with the Rev. Al Sharpton to promote nonspecific education reform; and calling Paul Ryan's plan to save Social Security "right-wing social engineering," we found out this week that Gingrich was a recipient of Freddie Mac political money.

Remembering Newt’s Awfulness : The Other McCain

Just now, I called Dan Collins to talk about the grim prospect that threatens to destroy all hope of carrying forward the Tea Party momentum of the 2010 midterms: Mitt vs. Newt as the final showdown for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination. Dan was saying that this has provided him an occasion to remember all the reasons he can’t stand Newt Gingrich.

'Defense Spending, the Super Committee, and the Price of Greatness' ....

The Obama Administration and these clowns basically built in a "Blackmail" mechanism....."Give us what we want or you'll be sorry....."
And "The Price of Greatness"...I am beginning to think these people wouldn't recognize "Greatness" if it bit them in the ass....

If this so-called “Super Committee” falls short—or if the required deficit reduction legislation is not enacted by January 15, 2012—fthen the Pentagon’s long-term budget will suffer the brunt of the consequences. Specifically, it will face not only lowered “sequestration” ceilings on spending that will effectively cut more than $500 billion from what the Pentagon was projected (based on Obama’s fiscal year 2012 budget proposal) to spend over the next ten years, but also “sequestration” cuts that will further indiscriminately slash as much as $500 billion more. In all, sequestration’s spending ceilings and cuts could effectively trim anywhere from $500 billion to over $1 trillion from projected long-term defense spending.

Obama: Small-Town Midwesterners "Bitter," American Businessmen "A Little Lazy," America "A Little Soft" ...Loves this place, doesn't he?!

But ABC's Devin Dwyer writes that the Perry ad "distorts" Obama's words. How so? "Obama replied [in an interview] that 'we’ve been a little bit lazy' about actively trying to attract private foreign investors to U.S. soil — referring broadly to American government and business sectors, not the American people themselves," Dwyer writes.

GE Filed 57,000-Page Tax Return, Paid No Taxes on $14 Billion in Profits......

There actually isn't one aspect of this that isn't absurd....

General Electric, one of the largest corporations in America, filed a whopping 57,000-page federal tax return earlier this year but didn't pay taxes on $14 billion in profits. The return, which was filed electronically, would have been 19 feet high if printed out and stacked.

Reagan 'the Archangel of American Spiritualized Greed'...What a nasty screed.....

A dark truth of American politics in what is still the era of Reagan and the Bushes is that so many do not vote their own economic interests. Rather than living in reality they yield to what oddly are termed “cultural” considerations: moral and spiritual, or so their leaders urge them to believe. Under the banners of flag, cross, fetus, exclusive marriage between men and women, they march onward to their own deepening impoverishment. Much of the Tea Party fervor merely repeats this gladsome frolic.

The New Welfare Swindle...

Ever since I moved to the inner city one thing has puzzled me more than any other, and that is how my low-income neighbors get by. Assuming they aren't doing anything illegal, how do they afford their homes, their meals, their gadgets, their cars?

VP's closed-door transparency chat ....????

Another Hypocrisy Howler....man, they make a target rich environment for dumb guy moves!!!

“At 1:00 PM, the Vice President will attend a meeting of the Government Accountability and Transparency Board in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. At 2:30 PM, the Vice President will meet with representatives of the National Sheriffs' Association in the Roosevelt Room. These meetings are closed press.”

Hundreds of protesters march on Wall Street....

So they want to stop the bell from ringing on Wall Street? Seems to me, in recent memory...the only other people who did that were flying planes into the World Trade Center. Nice Company to keep....

Scores of police barricaded the narrow streets around the stock exchange and used batons to push the protesters onto the sidewalk as they marched from a nearby park in a bid to prevent financial workers from getting to their desks.

Patriotic Millionaires -demand higher taxes but "un-willing" to pay up!

Excellent!!!!!!!!! Hypocrisy Howler!

The Daily Caller attended their press conference with an iPad, which displayed the Treasury Department’s donation page, to find out if any of the “patriotic millionaires” were willing to put their money where their mouth is.

Obama Pushing Shooters Off Public Lands.....

Heard about this on FOX this AM....I strongly believe in gun safety....but laying down a law that encroaches on the Constitution because a few people "Freak out"? They'd be the same one's "Freaking out" and running for the gun owners protection in the event of a problem! "Freaking Out"? Stop it. Safety and common sense yes....Freaking out.....get over it!

"It's not so much a safety issue. It's a social conflict issue," said Frank Jenks, a natural resource specialist with Interior's Bureau of Land Management, which oversees 245 million acres. He adds that urbanites "freak out" when they hear shooting on public lands. [Read about the subpoena issued as a result of Operation Fast and Furious.]

Cancer center's Santa gets boo........

Don't want to "Offend" Muslim and Jewish folks....well, All the Jewish families I have known never seemed the least bit "Offended".....and Muslims...you're here - in the US....deal with it.
Some of what you do "Offends" me as an American citizen...yet I don't ask you to leave. Ho! Ho! Ho!

Decorations will be "more secular and respectful to all beliefs," Agnew said. "We don't want to offend a volunteer with good intentions, but we need to think of the bigger picture. People who are Muslim or Jewish or have no religious beliefs come here for treatment," she said.

New book shows how Soros set up and financially benefited from '09 stimulus.....

"Soros was also a financial backer of the Center for American Progress, which functioned as Obama’s think tank. John Podesta,who headed CAP, was Obama’s transition director. Several CAP policy ideas became part of Obama’s agenda. Soros said at the time, 'I think we need a large stimulus package, which will provide funds for state and local government to maintain their budgets, because they are not allowed by the constitution to run a deficit. For such a program to be successful, the federal government would need to provide hundreds of billions of dollars. In addition, another infrastructure program is necessary. In total, the cost would be in the 300 to 600 billion dollar range.'”

Robert Kennedy, Jr.’s ‘Green’ Company Scored $1.4 Billion Taxpayer Bailout....yeah....shocking.......yawn.....

President John F. Kennedy’s nephew, Robert Kennedy, Jr., netted a $1.4 billion bailout for his company, BrightSource, through a loan guarantee issued by a former employee-turned Department of Energy official.

It’s just one more in a string of eye-opening revelations by investigative journalist and Breitbart editor Peter Schweizer in his explosive new book, Throw Them All Out.

OWS Protesters Calling For 'Day Of Action' Following Loss Of Camp In Zuccotti Park.....

Yup....JUST like the Tea Party........NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In a video posted on YouTube after protesters were evicted from Zuccotti Park, a demonstrator in the crowd says “On the 17th, we’re going to burn New York City to the ground.”

Frustration Mounts Over Super Committee....Paul Ryan's take....

Autos Insider | U.S. boosts estimate of auto bailout losses to $23.6B....

The Treasury Department dramatically boosted its estimate of losses from its $85 billion auto industry bailout by more than $9 billion in the face of General Motors Co.'s steep stock decline.

In its monthly report to Congress, the Treasury Department now says it expects to lose $23.6 billion, up from its previous estimate of $14.33 billion.

GOP leader bucks party on taxes....

The third-ranking Senate Republican leader argued Wednesday that Republicans on the supercommittee need to offer more revenues if the deficit panel hopes to balance the country’s books.

Who Ordered the ‘Many, Many‘ Satellite Pictures of Structures on China’s Desert? ....

This is weird and merits continued inquiries...

According to Wired’s Danger Room, former CIA analyst Allen Thomson said someone had several satellite images taken of the area well before the rest of the Internet world gained interest in it this week:

“Starting in 2004, somebody has ordered many, many satellite pictures of it,” Thomson tells Danger Room. “Can’t have been cheap.”

Obama Nominee for Social Security Board Favors Rationing Health Care.....What a surprise, ey???

Is it just a coincidence that the people that President Obama nominates to fill high-level governmental posts tend to favor government-directed health care rationing? Last year, Obama nominated Donald Berwick to head Medicare and Medicaid. Now he’s nominated Henry J. Aaron to head the Social Security Advisory Board.

Barack Obama’s Snubmarine.....

It should be clear by this time that Barack Obama is not good for America, not good for Israel and the Middle East, and, on the larger scale, not good for the world. The disaster of his presidency will ramify for years to come whether he is re-elected or not. And the so-called “free world” will be the worse for his administration’s policy blunders and its abdication of America’s historic and “exceptional” role as liberty’s guarantor.

Union Gangsters: Wade Rathke....

In the connect-the-radical-dots evolution of radical leftists and their thuggish tactics, from the anti-Vietnam war protests of the ’60s to the OWS movement currently afflicting the American landscape, few men stand out more vividly than Wade Rathke​.

Despite the fact the Rathke’s family members were prosperous ranchers from Orange Country, California, Rathke describes himself as a “professional organizer for over 35 years” who has “worked for and founded a series of organizations dedicated to winning social justice, workers rights, and a democracy where ‘the people shall rule.’”

A Professor’s Hatred for Our ‘Killer’ Troops....

The disclaimer “we support our troops” has practically become obligatory for proclamations of opposition to U.S. wars. But a Boston law professor felt compelled to declare to students and colleagues that he supports neither the wars nor the troops fighting them.

President Obama Holds a Press Conference at the APEC Summit....

Perry has brain freeze because he has one....Obama has teleprompter freeze...Hawaii is in Asia? Gee, I thought it was one of the 57 States....

Waitress Says She Was Fired For Tea Party Bracelet.....

A Crystal Lake waitress says she lost her job because she wore a Tea Party bracelet to work.

Networks Pounce on 'Awkward' Herman Cain Moment, Question His 'Grasp' and 'Readiness' .....

All three morning shows on Tuesday and the evening newscasts on Monday pounced on an "awkward" Herman Cain interview that questioned the Republican's "readiness to be commander in chief." Combined, the programs offered 11 segments on the subject. The same networks have yet to investigate Barack Obama's arrogant assertion that America has gotten "lazy" in regard to foreign investments.

Obama's 'Famous' '57 States' Gaffe Went Virtually Unmentioned in the NYTimes.....REALLY?!

The latest New York Times weekly “Caucus” podcast, hosted by reporters Sam Roberts and Michael Shear, opened with Gov. Rick Perry’s blank-out over the third federal agency he would shut down at last week’s Republican presidential debate, an event the Times and other media outlets rewarded with blanket coverage. Shear compared Perry’s flub to a supposedly “famous” one by candidate Barack Obama in 2008, in which Obama appeared to think there were 58 states in the U.S. But was it famous in the Times? Hardly.

MSNBC's Alex Wagner Grouses That Americans Are Too Pro-Gun, As Opposed to 'Intelligent' Brits......Think I'd rather be Un-Intelligent (?) American...

Brand new MSNBC host and Second Amendment critic Alex Wagner devoted a segment of her November 15 Now with Alex Wagner program to express her exasperation at the fact that she's far left of the American public on the issue of gun control. Wagner prefaced a panel discussion with footage of an ABC News interview with Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was critically injured in a January shooting.

New Plan for Alaska Oil Production Funds Infrastructure Jobs...

House Republicans this week will renew their push to drill for oil in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), with proceeds from the federal revenues it would create dedicated to funding road construction.

Massachusetts Law Professor Calls Care Packages For U.S. Troops 'Shameful'...He is the Shameful one...

I will have more about this soon. We are going to try and help the Care Packages....

A Massachusetts law professor has created a campus firestorm with an email to colleagues that declares it would be "shameful" to send care packages to U.S. troops "who have gone overseas to kill other human beings."

Glenn Beck Donates $55,000 to Women’s Shelter On the Air ....

Like Beck or not ( Disclaimer: I DO! ) He is a man of his word....Hey "Occupy"...take a lesson!

“You know what did that — capitalism. I have made money. I have worked hard. I have done the things that put me in a situation to where I can make money. And then my wife and I decide what do to with that money.

And if the government doesn’t think that a faith-based charity should get any money, well then it is up to me, an individual who believes in small government, to make up the difference.”
