Grade President Obama’s Performance
Remember when President Obama graded himself "a good solid B+"? Now's your chance to chime in: CBS News has set up a poll to hear from viewers about how they think the President has done. Let's tell them!
Veiled Transparency
It is so disappointing to realize that the Obama Administration, with all of its promises of transparency, has failed to deliver to "We the People." Granted, this is a difficult task, but it doesn't look like a priority any more for our Administration. Timothy P. Carney reported last week in the Washington Examiner that "Obama eliminated [...]
In-Home Surveillance “Not Illegal”
Last month I pointed out that the British surveillance state continued its relentless advance, and invited the reader to ponder the implementation of surveillance-state tactics here in the U.S. Well, ponder no more. In February of this year, a Pennsylvania high school student was reportedly disciplined by the school's assistant principal for engaging in "improper [...]
Between Barack and Hard Place
If Michelle is like Marie Antoinette to whom shall we compare Barack? The thought that he’s Louis XVI is unthinkable. George III is too easy. To read the full article http://drrobertowens.com/2010/08/14/between-barack-and-a-hard-place/
Principled Government by a commonsense American
Tea Party supporter and patriot Bob Vogt has created an excellent document describing the roots of the crises America faces and how we must return to first principles of constitutional governance, principled leadership, and fiscal responsibility in order for our nation to survive and thrive again. He explains that this isn't accomplished simply by changing Congress [...]
Tea Party Supporters: President Barack Obama is urging you to vote! Read on!
We received the following e-mail from the Obama Administration urging Americans to pledge to vote this November. Please read it and show our President you ARE committed to answering this important call. Friend -- Eighteen years ago, shortly after graduating from law school, I helped lead a voter registration campaign in Chicago that generated record turnout [...]
Va. Tea Parties Join Massive Opposition “Net Neutrality”
The Virginia Tea Party Patriots Federation has joined over 150 national and state-level think tanks, advocacy groups, state legislators, bloggers, and talk show hosts in strongly opposing the Obama Administration’s proposed “Net Neutrality” regulatory efforts. A letter outlining clear reasons for universal opposition had been circulated by Americans for Tax Reform, and was released and [...]
We Need More Allen Wests
It's Americans like Allen West that give me hope for the future of this nation. Watch his speech from The Right Scoop and be inspired.
The Ruling Class vs. the Public
The emergence of a ruling class in the U.S. may be one of the most significant political developments of our generation. I believe it is, and I think that defeating the class before it completes its takeover of the country is one of this generation’s most important tasks. I blogged about this on 8/4 (“The [...]
Effecting Change
Like many, I’m waiting for November when Congress will hopefully be in Republican control. However, I’m reminded of a question that Walter Williams’s economics professor asked him about some socialist economic policy: “What then?” Say the Republicans actually take over Congress. What happens then? I haven’t heard anything about a Republican agenda. Where’s the Contract [...]
Silly Science
Recently, politicians have gotten a lot of ink and air time by making fun of federally funded science projects. For example, Wake Forest University scientists are studying monkeys under the influence of cocaine in a project titled “Effect of Cocaine Self-Administration on Metabotropic Glutamate Systems.” How silly can you get? Let me try. I found [...]
Too Many Rights on the Left
There are three fundamental and unalienable rights, life, liberty, and property. These are the rights recognized and enshrined by our founders. These are the rights meant to stand as the guardians and facilitators of American society. For the full article : http://drrobertowens.com/2010/08/07/too-many-rights-on-the-left/
