REPORTER: Has the administration done a good job of making decisions about who to invest in, about where to invest?
CARNEY: Look, I think the...

Gov. Jerry Brown’s solution to the state’s catastrophic budget might be called, “California Dreaming.” More likely, it will end up everyone else’s worst nightmare.
The governor’s best solution is to plead poverty and lower himself to beg voters to increase taxes. His outlook is fanciful, much like the Greeks’. Both are about to learn that responsible...

Obama Kenya Surprise - And It's Not Even October
Not again with the birth certificate stuff, no this is different. This pamphlet was produced in 1991 by Obama’s literary agent to promote his upcoming book. The bio claims he was born in Kenya.
More here.
As this was a sanctioned bio produced long before Obama was to run for President, were they telling the truth about where he was born then, or now?

On at least four occasions, MSNBC’s Chris Matthews mocked Sarah Palin for how he felt she’d do if she were ever on the hit television game show Jeopardy!.

According to Governor Jerry Brown, California is in big financial trouble.
“We are still recovering from the worst recession since the 1930s,” Brown said in a YouTube video cited on his Twitter post. “Tax receipts are coming lower than expected and the federal government and the courts have blocked us from making billions of necessary budget reductions. The result is that we are now facing a $16...

Just how unpopular is President Obama in some parts of the country? Enough that a man in a Texas prison received four out of 10 votes in West Virginia’s Democratic presidential primary.
Inmate Keith Judd, 53, is serving 17 years for extortion at the Beaumont Federal Correctional Institution. He was sentenced in 1999 for making threats against the University of New Mexico and is due to be...

By killing so called unsafe activity (play) on the schoolyard, kids in schools are getting fat. To combat this are the schools instituting more excersize? No, too dangerous. Cash strapped schools are instituting bans on foods that compete with the revenue stream of the cafeteria, in the name of combatting the obesety they helped caused in the first place.
Bake sales, the calorie-laden standby...

Romney tells Obama to back off on bin Laden issue →
Romney says Obama can rightfully take credit for bin Laden’s downfall. But he says it was “very disappointing for the president to try to make this a political item” by suggesting he wouldn’t have ordered the raid, saying, “Of course I would have.”
Obama deserves credit where credit is due, and certainly credit is due here.
But a true leader shares credit...

WSJ- Strassel: The President Has a List →
Not since Nixon….
Richard Nixon’s “enemies list” appalled the country for the simple reason that presidents hold a unique trust. Unlike senators or congressmen, presidents alone represent all Americans. Their powers—to jail, to fine, to bankrupt—are also so vast as to require restraint. Any president who targets a private citizen for his politics is de facto engaged in...

Pay A Fair Share? Spend A Fair Share
America works as a nation because any one of us has the opportunity to become successful, comfortable and wealthy. It has been an American tradition to aspire to it.
Yet President Obama and his political soldiers have gone out and attacked wealth. They say the successful among us should pay more to sustain the Government’s insatiable appetite for spending.
Some could be paying more. It is also...

From Dog Wars To Polygamy
Last week the Presidential campaigns were flinging dog at each other. This week’s issue is polygamy.
Polygamy: having more than one wife. In the United States you can have more than one wife, but only one at a time. Some other cultures and religions have allowed multiple wives AT THE SAME TIME.
While Mitt Romney is not a polygamist, there has been polygamy in his family’s past. Some...

What if the whole purpose of the Constitution was to limit the government?

So we have a couple of dudes running for President. One already is the President, and one wants to be.

Currently, the supporters for each candidate are battling in the media sphere over which is worse.
I leave it to you to decide which is worse and because it...

It is also a day when many giant corporations don’t pay. Through various loopholes, subsidies and incentives,...
