In a year-end review of the US economy this article contains 75 economic statistics that point to the fact that conditions in the US are deteriorating rather than improving. To add insult to injury, the country faces four more years of the same leadership that helped to put us in the financial hole that we find ourselves in! And the final absurdity is that facing an economic crisis the POTUS and members of Congress left town for vacation!

Of course, one obvious and significant part of our violent culture was left untouched by these dopes.
Movies. Hollywood.
Hollywood has contributed mightily to the decay of American culture. We used to have White Christmas, now we have Reservoir Dogs. We used to have Mary Poppins. Now we have Kill Bill. Hollywood has coarsened our culture. It has desensitized kids to senseless murder and senseless violence.

Chuck Hagel apologized for making a fairly nasty gay slur more than a decade ago. The execrable Andrew Sullivan is proud of Hagel, especially because Hagel’s mea culpa wasn’t accompanied by a companion mea culpa to the Jews and the State of Israel, as to both of which Hagel has directed a boatload of smears, insults, and threats.

Kwanzaa Is A Fraud of A "Holiday" Created With A Fascist Goal

If you are like me you woke up one day and the "holiday season" Christmas and New Year´s became a trio, with the addition of something called Kwanzaa. Oh sure there were rumblings of a new holiday, but who would have thought that something invented by a Black separatist group in 1966 will now be considered by some in this overly politically correct world as a holiday on par with something like Christmas or New Years.
The man who created the holiday, Maulana Karenga was a convicted violent felon. In 1971 Karenga was convicted of torturing two women who were members

National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre spoke to reporters today about the horror of Sandy Hook, and the hypocrisy of the media and politicians, an indictment of Hollywood and the video game industry and offered the NRA´s suggestion for ending school violence-properly trained armed good guys at each school across America.
Disappointingly even Fox News didn´t cover his entire speech, perhaps because they have been accused of not covering the heightened gun control debate (according to the leftist pundits), or perhaps their ownership of 20th Century Fox.

Every year I post a piece on the troubled truth about Kwanzaa. This year will be no exception. Note that some of the newspaper articles I quote are several years old and may no longer be online. Each year, with the onset of Christmas, we are treated to another gauzy, fluff piece about how great Kwanzaa is by yet another PC spewing columnist. This year, among many others, we find aggrandizement such as that in The Telegraph from Macon, Georgia with, "Annual Kwanzaa celebrations highlight arts, community and history," and the Dallas Morning News with its titled, "Look forward to

As we near the so-called “Fiscal Cliff”, I feel it necessary to point out, again, that higher tax rates will lead to lower revenue for the federal government. Previously, I only had the words of various economists on my side, and re-iterated those words in defense of keeping the tax rates low. However, recently I worked to come up with a comparison showing how higher tax rates lead to lower revenues, and vice versa.

Trying to figure out how to deal with the massacre of children at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newton, Connecticut is no easy task. For reporters, "dealing" isn´t supposed to be the goal, reporting is. But for CNN´s Ashleigh Banfield, reporting is of less interest than placing blame even to the point of blaming God for the crime.

It’s not about jobs. It’s not about safety. It’s not about improving dockworkers’ living standards. The looming, long-planned East and Gulf Coast port strikes are about protecting Big Labor’s archaic work practices and corrupt waterfront rackets.

A combination of people thinking the world will end, the last day before Christmas vacation, and the one-week anniversary of the tragic shooting at Newtown, CT has resulted in a tremendous amount of shooting threats at schools across the United States.
A simple search on twitter, Google, or Facebook reveals a shocking number of threats. Here is just a small sample.

The YouTube video of Gangnam Style by Psy is fast approaching 1,000,000,000 views.
Coupling that fact with the end of the Mayan calendar today, December 21, along with the interpretation of one of the Nostradamus prophecies makes one wonder whether today will be the end of time!

In light of the recent massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, we learn today that, “The Newtown school gunman’s mother was so angry at education chiefs for failing her son, she thought ‘screw them’ and refused to stop dealing with them anymore, a relative has claimed. Nancy Lanza pleaded for better services for her disturbed son Adam, but was apparently rebuffed so many times, she took it upon herself to home school him.”
One can imagine there isn’t a Special Education Director who isn’t wondering if they could do more to identify students with mental health disorders. In fact, there are some who

Earlier in the week, I wrote a column for the American Spectator about the corruption of HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius. Well, her skulduggery didn’t begin when she joined the Obama regime. It stretches back to her tenure as the Governor of Kansas. And, if you think the above title is overly sensational, watch this video and decide for yourself.

It is even odder that Secretary Clinton, who once said “I take responsibility. . . . I take this very personally,” also gets off without criticism. It’s not that absolving her or her top deputies is necessarily wrong, but where it leads is bound to affect morale in the department. Look at these events from the perspective of career officials at the office director or deputy assistant secretary level, and what just happened? People like you were just ruined, while people up the chain got off scot free. Being on the Seventh Floor appears to grant immunity.
