The Administration is putting in another big push this week. We should have a lot to talk about so let’s segregate discussion on this topic to this thread, which we’ll keep going until this thing is finally toast.

I had a picture of Julius Caesar getting murdered… Big Government and many others have the same pic. Since I can’t stand to be part of the crowd I’m changing my pic.

Potential Tea Party anthem? Perhaps. I also prefer to look at this song as a thumb in the eye of any politician who wishes to be our overlord instead of serving WE THE PEOPLE.

That was a popular music video in the ’80s and I guarantee you none of us here who are old enough to remember it batted an eyelash when we saw it. The culture had very successfully convinced most everyone under the age of ‘40 that Reagan [...]

From Fox New York:
Some New York City chefs and restaurant owners are taking aim at a bill introduced in the New York Legislature that, if passed, would ban the use of salt in restaurant cooking.
“No owner or operator of a restaurant in this state shall use salt in any form in the preparation of [...]

Last week I posted on Democratic Congressman Eric Massa in Dutch for “sexually harassing” a “junior” male staffer. Well, as with most things related to the House of Representatives in the Age of Obama it seems there’s more — a LOT more to the story. Outlaw had linked to a bit from [...]

Federal pay has now officially outstripped private sector pay. From USA Today:
Federal employees earn higher average salaries than private-sector workers in more than eight out of 10 occupations, a USA TODAY analysis of federal data finds.
Accountants, nurses, chemists, surveyors, cooks, clerks and janitors are among the wide range of jobs that get paid more [...]

In today’s Texas history class students we find that on this date in 1836 the Alamo fell to the Mexican Army. For 13 days between 100-150 Texicans held out against the onslaught of over 1500 Mexican soldiers under the command of General Santa Anna. The battle became a rallying point for the Texas [...]

First term Massachusetts Congressman Eric Massa — a DEMOCRAT — is not seeking reelection this fall. He says the reason is his health… others say it is that he made unwanted advances to a male staffer. Massa is married with kids.

Nothing like arguing about Lincoln, so I’ll extend it to a new post here. In open thread, Floyd – quite correctly – said that if the South hadn’t been so stubbornly boneheaded about slavery, the American Civil War (or the War of Northern Aggression, if you prefer) would not have occurred.
