Republicans can count on President Obama. By that, I mean that they can predict his actions, the way he thinks and reacts. They can predict who he will go to the mat for, like Planned Parenthood, environmentalists, and our foreign adversaries. And they can predict who he will confront, like the Catholic Church, oil producers, and our foreign allies … More…

The craven abortion culture of Barack Obama 2
Just when you think the Obama administration couldn’t get any worse when it comes to abortion issues, they surprise you. Their latest abortion news is a doozy. Barack Obama has plunged to new depths of depravity with his latest expansion of abortion at taxpayer expense. You’re not going to believe this … More…
The price of inhumanity 5
By Tom Quiner
From 1980 to 1988, there were 1 million deaths due to the Iran/Iraq war.
From 1980 to 1988, there were 14 million deaths in the U.S. due to abortion.
Before the U.S./Iraq war began, there were an estimated 270 mass graves in Iraq.
It is estimated that those graves hold the bodies of 400,000 people.
In the U.S., our mass graves are found in the dumpsters behind Planned Parenthood. Millions of bodies have been disposed there.
In 2006, 846 U.S. soldiers died in Iraq. Thirty-four thousand Iraqi civilians died. One million, two-hundred fifty thousand babies were aborted in the U.S.
By 2010, the number of U.S. soldiers who died in Iraq had dropped to sixty. The number of Iraqi citizen fatalities dropped to twenty-four hundred. The number of abortion fatalities in the U.S. “dropped” to a mere one million, two-hundred thousand.
In the entire 236 year history of the United States of America, we have lost 1.3 million people to war.
We lose that many to abortion in a single year.
Interestingly, the incidence of civilian casualties in Iraq dropped dramatically with our intervention and the ouster of Saddam Hussein, one of the 20th century’s more prolific mass murderers.
In the U.S., Planned Parenthood is the most prolific agent of death. They are supported with taxpayer money with our president’s blessing.
Even more, the president requires taxpayers to fund the killings.
Even more, the president now requires Catholics and other faith-based organizations to provide abortifacients, sterilization, and contraception for free to their employees in their health care plans.
Inhumanity takes a tremendous toll on civilization. Often, the killing is done in the name of hate.
In the U.S., it is a little different. It is far worse. It is done in the name of apathy and greed, for Planned Parenthood makes billions on the little backs of their victims.
What is the price of all of this carnage? Civilization decays, one life at a time.
What is the solution? That is simple: God. We must remember we were made in His image.
Anything else? Yes, we must elect pro-life politicians.
And in the name of humanity, Barack Obama must go.

Venture capitalism vs. venture socialism 1
By Tom Quiner
Mitt Romney is under attack for the successes and failures of Bain Capital while he was there.
Whatever you think of Mr. Romney, and I have concerns about him as a candidate, I would like to point out that Bain Capital used private money to make more money.
Let us contrast that with President Obama who is using public money, yours’ and mine, to fund his venture socialism initiatives in green energy.
We’re all familiar with the Solyndra debacle that blew through hundreds of millions of yours’ and mine dollars. Rank and file taxpayers were disgusted by the whole affair because the federal government has no business picking winners and losers in the private sector with our tax dollars.
Whether its Democrats or Republicans doing it, crony capitalism is nothing but venture socialism.
The marketplace should pick the winners and losers. Japan’s economy was touted as the wave in the future back in the 80s with their embrace of “industrial policy.” In other words, the government would pick the winners and losers in business, not the marketplace. I remember Ted Kennedy leading the battle cry for the U.S. to be more like Japan.
The rest is history. The Japanese economy tanked. They haven’t recovered to this day. This is the economic model President Obama actively embraces. Is it any wonder our economy isn’t recovering as it did with Ronald Reagan at the helm?
Now a CBS reporter, Sharyl Attkisson, has reported that Solyndra is just the tip of the iceberg. She details eleven more “Solyndras,” green energy companies that received yours’ and mine tax dollars and have gone broke … or are on their way.
Taxpayers are on the hook for billions more. Charlie Rose reports that CBS has uncovered a pattern of the Obama Energy Department pouring tax dollars into green energy. Ms. Attkisson provides the details.
This year’s presidential campaign will determine if America continues to embrace the socialism promoted by Team Obama. The green energy debacle should give voters pause on whether they want their country to embrace venture socialism.

The debt ceiling blame game 2
By Tom Quiner
Is there anything wrong with raising the debt ceiling?
A Senator said yes. He charges the president for being “unpatriotic” and “irresponsible” for asking to have the debt ceiling raised.
Who is this Senator? You guessed it: the former junior senator from Illinois, Barack Obama.
It is wrong when a Republican wants to raise it, but okay when a Democrat wants to do it.
Senator Obama chastised former President Bush for driving up the national debt to $10.6 Trillion by the time he left office. Senator Obama was justified in being upset. I would put more blame on the Congress that actually authorizes the spending. Let us also remember that Democrats controlled Congress from 2006 until 2010. So the debt crisis is certainly bi-partisan.
However, once Senator Obama became President Obama, the debt ceiling has rapidly increased to the point that Mr. Obama wants it raised to $16.4 Trillion.
The problem now is squarely a problem of the Democratic Party. Government indebtedness significantly increased once Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid took the reins of the House and Senate respectively. The Senate hasn’t even passed a budget in three years.
When Republicans retook the House in 2010, they have advanced a modicum of fiscal restraint, only to be blocked by the President and the Democratically-controlled Senate.
Senator Obama was correct: government indebtedness was out-of-control during the Bush years. I wish President Obama agreed.
