This is indicative of the complete chaos coming out of the Obama administration at this time. And, given liberal philosophy, it won’t stop. The Obama Department of Labor just spent your money to put together an advertising campaign letting illegal workers know they have rights to minimum wage standards. In Spanish. They don’t have one [...]

Right as Obama is gearing up for another round of stimulus funding, Germany’s Angela Merkel blindsided him some of the craziest advice Obama’s probably heard since the last Tea Party rally: “It’s urgently necessary for monetary stability that public budgets return to balance,” German Economy Minister Rainer Bruederle said at a press conference Monday, according [...]

That’s the AP headline this morning. AP Impact: US-Mexico border isn’t so dangerous MEXICO CITY — It’s one of the safest parts of America, and it’s getting safer. It’s the U.S.-Mexico border, and even as politicians say more federal troops are needed to fight rising violence, government data obtained by The Associated Press show it [...]

Obama doesn’t like Arizona’s border security law. According to him, Janet Napolitano, and Eric Holder, it is so bad they won’t even read it.

That it violates several Constitutional rights. He hasn’t read it but he plans to file suits on behalf of the federal government. Now, Felipe [...]

Over the weekend we almost had a car bomb go off in Manhatten. They immediately arrested a Pakistani trying to book a flight to Pakistan. President Obama praised the work of the police in capturing the inept car bomber wannabe. In Arizona a deputy was shot by a Mexican drug dealer. President Obama is worried [...]

Recently about six peeps decided to go hang out in the forests of Santa Barbara County, California. For most of us, that’s not much of a big deal. However, for these peeps, the story is a little different: Investigators said Tuesday they believe marijuana growers with possible ties to Mexican drug cartels caused an 88,650-acre [...]
