Probably the ONLY people on Earth who should NOT be screwed with. Are our politicians taking an increase????
Pentagon officials will continue pressing in 2013 for significantly higher Tricare fees for military retirees, including older retirees covered by Tricare for Life, as well as higher drug co-pays for all Tricare beneficiaries.
The Defense Department’s proposed 2013 budget calls for annual enrollment fees for retirees in Tricare Prime to rise next year by 30 percent to 78 percent, from the current $460 or $520 for families to between $600 and $820, depending on military retirement income.

Dad Jesse Sansone Arrested, Strip-Searched After Daughter Draws a Picture of a Gun in School ......
The State - the Government step by step.....your rights are vanishing - everywhere....
Sansone was finally released after four hours. He said he’s furious and that his name has been slandered.
“So many people dealt with this situation in the wrong way,” he told the Sun. “I know the principal really well, how could he judge my character in this way? I drop off and pick the kids up every day, I always say hello, I sign every report card, I go to every parent teacher meeting, I am an active parent at that school.”

FFRF Pushes for 10 Commandments Removal in North Carolina......
Keep your eye on this....Atheists are challenging our very foundation everywhere. It's happening in so many small towns nobody is noticing the wave....they know municipalities are broke and cannot shoulder the court costs of fighting this...bit by bit...nudge by nudge.
Earlier this month, The Blaze told you about a drama unfolding between the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF), an atheist and freethinking group based in Wisconsin, and a local government in North Carolina. The non-believing group is demanding that officials remove a Ten Commandments plaque that is hanging in the Newland Town Hall.

U.S. opening up airspace to use of drones ........
Each day...bit by bit...nudge by nudge we give up our freedom and aren't even aware. Just THINK of the SCREAMING if this were done by GWB.
After more than 40 years of development and extensive use by the military, the United States has set the date when the nation’s airspace will be open for drones. Should you be scared?
Short answer: No, but like any new technology, unmanned aerial vehicles have their dark side.
Legislation passed by Congress last week gives the Federal Aviation Administration until Sept. 30, 2015, to open the nation’s skies to drones.

Green company gets $390M subsidies, lays off 125.....
Why not squander money on a product that has no market...it isn't their money to worry about...only to TAKE.
A123 Systems, an electric car battery company once touted as a stimulus "success story" by former Gov. Jennifer Granhom, D-Mich., has laid off 125 employees since receiving $390 million in government subsidies -- but is still handing out big pay raises to company executives.

Tea Party Groups treated unfairly....under assault...

Hummmmmm....Does Gibson Guitar ring a bell....?...wonder where else this is happening....bit by bit....nudge by nudge....
The Daily Caller has obtained documents, emails and communications showing how President Barack Obama’s Federal Communications Commission demolished wireless broadband company LightSquared’s competition through a pattern of regulatory decisions apparently aimed at establishing an “open-access” Internet in the United States.

Homeowner - legally licenced - being robbed, arrested for warning shot
Again and again......you wonder WHY there is a Tea Party? The Country is upside down. I saw the Gent on the News.
He was educated and respectful. Everything you'd want in a RESPONSIBLE LEGALLY LICENSED Gun owner....
When he described his run in with the burglar, Fleming told the New Hampshire Union-Leader: “I just wanted him to take me serious. He did.”
The felony charge could carry as much as a 7-year prison sentence. “Even knowing what I face, I would do it again,” Fleming said.
“I’m hoping it won’t come to [prison],” he added, but I’ve got broad shoulders, so I’ll deal with it.” Fleming said, adding he has 14 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

Bonuses given after raises at Solyndra .....
So once again, we give bonuses to "great" people we just "can't" afford to lose to the "competition"....and these same "great" people run the damn Company into the ground....on the taxpayer DIME!
Several of the nearly two dozen employees at bankrupt solar panel maker Solyndra LLC who were approved for bonuses Wednesday had months earlier received pay raises as high as 70 percent, a fact the company never disclosed in its request for bonus cash.
The company’s bankruptcy attorneys sought permission for the bonuses in a court hearing, arguing that the extra cash is needed to keep key employees from fleeing only to be replaced by more expensive outside consultants.

President‘s Proposed Corporate Tax Cut Called a ’Disaster’…‘Total Bust’ .....
As soon as you see a tax proposal where the words "Unfair" are used....you KNOW the Progressives are in the details!
“President Obama’s 2013 budget is the gift that keeps on giving—to government. One buried surprise is his proposal to triple the tax rate on corporate dividends, which believe it or not is higher than in his previous budgets.”

Barney Frank: The Tea Party Is More Effective Than The Occupy Movement ....
Of course it was!
We work for a living, we are for personal responsibility...we took out permits, paid for trash collection, paid for police details...left locations looking better than when we came in. We are POSITIVE about our great country.....THAT is why we WORK!

HALF of Americans don't pay income tax despite crippling government debt .....
I'm glad America has a safety net for those in need....I never want to see a family destroyed by economics....HOWEVER...there comes a time when the sense of "Entitlement" prevails over common sense....it's THEN that Atlas Shrugged.
Only half of U.S. citizens pay federal income tax, according to the latest available figures.
In 2009, just 50.5 per cent of Americans paid any income tax to the federal government - the lowest proportion in at least half a century.
And the number of people outside the tax system could have climbed even higher since as the economic downturn has continued to bite and unemployment has remained high.

The High Priests of Eco-Destruction.....
Remember items like this when November comes.
Get off your BUTT and VOTE....otherwise this goes on for another 4 years and we won't recognize our country by the time the next election arrives!
Rick Santorum is right. Pushing back against Democrats' attempts to frame him as a religious menace, the GOP presidential candidate forcefully turned the tables on the White House: "When it comes to the management of the Earth, they are the anti-science ones."

Is President Obama the Best Gun Salesman in America?........
Not only that - he's supplying the Mexican Cartels!
Gun manufacturers would likely not be the first to come to mind when considering industries who have benefited the most during President Obama’s first term, but a study from Ammo.net finds that firearm sales and concealed handgun permit applications are at all-time highs since the 2008 election.

Christie To Warren Buffett: "Just Write A Check And Shut Up"
Lordie...it's so nice to hear someone SAY IT!!!!!
"He should just write a check and shut up. Really. And just contribute. I'm tired of hearing about it. If he wants to give the government more money, he's got the ability to write a check. Go ahead and write it," Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) said to CNN's Piers Morgan.

Sarah Palin was right......Obamacare is looming BIG...
I have no health insurance. We did - our Company offered it paid 100% for almost 25 years....then Romneycare came into play....that coupled with the Recession....and something had to give if our small business was to survive.
Everyone here was on their own for healthcare.
Because of the Recession, we don't always (?) get paid....more like almost never as owners. We cannot afford the $1400.00 a month for health insurance.
If we could buy insurance like Progressive Insurance....A la Carte....we'd probably be fine....but no.
With Romneycare we're paying for everyone...and that knocks us out of line.
We pay all our doctor bills out of pocket. A novel concept these days apparently.
Always paid in full...and yet, at years end...we owe no one, we take responsibility for our actions and bills...and we're still fined for not having insurance.
Be careful what you wish for.....Sarah Palin IS right...
President Gerald Ford once said, “A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.” For now, the government is giving — or requiring businesses to give — more health services to Americans through subsidies, mandates, and other means. But Obamacare, which grants the HHS secretary 1,968 new or expanded powers, also gives the government the power to take.

Chiarelli, Thomas Meet About Comments
Tim Thomas - All-Star Goalie for the Boston Bruins has opinions.
He has no problem standing behind his opinion. That in and of itself is refreshing.
His problem however.....at least as far as the media is concerned is that he doesn't really like the present Administration.
He doesn't say it outright.
It's obvious in his posted quotes and in his actions.
For that....in Massachusetts....the Land of Obama - he is considered wrong.
