Obama is set to announce $1.5 billion in aid to underwater homeowners.  Nevada stands to reap a large portion of the money, so why not announce it in Vegas with Harry Reid at your side.  What’s $1.5 billion if it helps get Harry re-elected?
What happened to fiscal responsibility?
When will they end the TARP and why [...]

It seems a natural feeling whether you are Republican or Democrat or Independent to be annoyed at the lack of ability to get anything done in Washington DC.  One could argue, its particularly disappointing that Obama hasn’t been able to accomplish anything despite a super majority in the House and Senate.  It often makes me wonder [...]

My boss is obsessed with the Tiger Woods fallout.  I heard a funny quote yesterday on CNBC by Jim Rogers.  He’s a pretty famous investor.  One of my colleagues called him the coolest guy on wall street.  That’s saying a lot since he wears a bow tie.  Can anyone really not trust a person in [...]

I’m confused. I thought one of Obama’s biggest campaign promises was to pull troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Now he’s sending 30,000 more troops over there? He’s spending even more money. And he heads to Europe next week to receive his Nobel Peace Prize.

I enjoy reading David Rosenburg’s daily commentary.  I suggest you sign up to receive it.  He is an unabashed bear and highly biased toward Canada.  I enjoy his point of view because he tells you everything CNBC is not.  I watch CNBC every day for 10-12 hours a day.  Usually it’s on mute, but sometimes [...]

From President Obama’s UN speech last week:
“I am well aware of the expectations that accompany my presidency around the world.” 
Doesn’t comment have an assumption of arrogance built into it?  Is there no end to his arrogance?  Show me something you’ve done Mr. Obama.

You have probably heard about Obama arguing that the individual mandate is not a tax.  Well, this is just one more example of why Obama has no real clue about what is in the bill.  Here is what the Baucus bill actually says about the penalty for not complying with the mandate.  See it for [...]

I read an interesting WSJ op-ed today.  You can read it here.  I’ve long thought the young people of our country should oppose the health care reform.  We all know, the primary users of health care are the elderly.   As the baby boomers are entering retirement, they will need more health care.  Since they are [...]

This issue has been alluded to before on this blog, but many of America’s problems have been created by a lack of responsibility.  Liberals are moving us toward a society where more and more of the responsibility is placed on the government.  Communism and Socialism are all about central planning.  Citizens are told where to [...]
