Fox News Fact Check: Is Romney’s tax rate really lower than yours?
Short answer: no. Not only is it not lower but, as is pointed out, his income is actually taxed twice. Can we stop worrying about Romney’s tax returns and worry about how Obama is wasting ours?

Washington Examiner 55 percent of small business owners would not start company today, blame Obama
Don’t expect that to improve if he wins a second term.

Alan Dershowitz@WSJ The Message Obama Should Have Sent: Forget about a ‘red line.’ Try a warning to Iran in black-and-white.

Michelle Malkin Who Is White House visitor Hisham Altalib?
He hosts the Muslim Brotherhood but can’t be bothered to meet with Netanyahu. At least his priorities are consistent and clear. Israel, meet bus.

Fox NY Razor attack in Manhattan McDonald’s
Newsflash to the LGBT community: liberals don’t hold your best interests as a high priority. They pander to you with special-interest legislation which only serves to turn you into a victim class. Conservatives would rather see you armed and capable of defending yourselves.

Politico Romney 2011 taxes: Mitt gives more to charity than President Obama, Joe Biden
No surprise there.

USA Today Morning-after pills available at 13 NYC public schools
No, there’s no effort underway to undermine the family or parents’ authority over their kids. How about reversing your policy so that parents have to opt in?

Lewis W. Diuguid@Kansas City Star The very wealthy are driven by a silent addiction for more
A couple hundred words of Leftist, class warfare drivel, this piece at least got me thinking. If wealth is a mental illness, shouldn’t we consider Obama’s presidency a resounding success? After all, he’s cured an awful lot of Americans of that particular ailment.

Jake Tapper@ABC President Obama Falsely Claims Fast and Furious Program “Begun Under the Previous Administration”
This goes beyond just making a false claim…straight to a deliberate lie. The gun stings run by the Bush administration were done with the full knowledge and cooperation of the Mexican government and the guns were never allowed to “walk”—they were tracked closely from beginning to end. Obama and his appointees have proven themselves incompetent already. Now they expect us to accept a bald lie about their own reckless actions, which have resulted in numerous murders on both sides of the border. It’s time for new management.

  2. Why do they need 176K sniper rounds?

Gun control doesn’t work in the U.K.

September 19th, 2012 No comments

Two police officers were gunned down in Manchester. One was armed with a Taser, which I’ve heard is very effective when facing an assailant armed with bullets.

How’s that gun ban working out for you?

Washington Times Feds ignore rules and use stimulus cash to buy Chinese solar panels
While the Dems bash Romney for sending jobs overseas, they use stimulus funds—which are supposed to generate jobs here—to create jobs in China. Pot meet kettle.

Gun control doesn’t work in NJ

September 17th, 2012 No comments

An employee walked into a supermarket in NJ and opened fire with a rifle, killing two innocents.

“I don’t want to die, please,” a woman hiding in a back room softly told a 911 dispatcher.

When you need the police now they’re minutes away. Unfortunately it’s very hard to legally arm yourself for your own protection in NJ. That rifle the perp used? It’s already illegal to tote it around—or, um, commit murder with it—in NJ. That doesn’t seem to have helped the victims much.

Washington Free Beacon Reports: Marines Not Permitted Live Ammo
Why have a Marine guard if they aren’t armed? The reaction of State Department embassy personnel—as well as the White House—is outrageous. Embassy grounds are sovereign U.S. soil and should be defended as such. The current administration is only encouraging further attacks by deliberately projecting American weakness and indecision.
