A recent article from GM-Volt.com showed the new Integration Vehicle Assembly plant for the Chevy Volt. I think this is very exciting news! In spite of the problems that GM is going through, they have made a commitment to get this car on the road. If you are not familiar with the Chevy Volt, it is an electric car with a built in gas generator. The battery is designed to go 40 miles on a usable charge (the average American drives 30 miles a day.) After 40 miles when the battery has used approximately 70% of it's capacity, the ...<< MORE >>

On Sunday, June 28th, White House adviser David Axelrod said that the administration wouldn't rule out taxing some employees benefits. Now compare this to Obama's campaign promise where he said, "I pledge that under my plan, no one making less than $250,000 a year will see any type of tax increase," Obama told a crowd in Dover, N.H., last year. "Not income tax, not capital gains taxes, not any kind of tax." It looks like another convenient Obama lie. Since Obama has been in office he has already raised taxes on tobacco products. That tax will affect lower and ...<< MORE >>

The title of this article, Living under PC health care is about what would happen when politicians and bureaucrats are making our health care decisions. Of course PC stands for politically correct, or maybe even politically controlled health care, the two are pretty much the same. What happens when politics and all the BS that it entails gets a hold of the medical industry. Every American needs to think about this and what it means to your health and your families health. The example I can show of this is a recent article about the World Health ...<< MORE >>

On Monday, June 15th, President Obama gave a speech in Chicago to the American Medical Association. His speech was design to sell his health care program to the AMA in the hope of getting their support. In the speech, he made a vague, non-binding remark that he would, “explore a range of ideas...", he goes on like that saying things the doctors want to hear but he never really promises them anything. This pattern of Obama's is becoming pretty clear. When he wants to sell something to the American people, he uses buzz words that he knows are music ...<< MORE >>

President Obama told us that we needed to spend trillions of dollars to prevent the economy from getting worse than it was, but after spending billions of dollars, many expert believe it would have been better not to spend the money. President Obama said we needed billions of dollars to save Chrysler and GM from going bankrupt and now both companies have done just that. The Chinese have bought the Hummer brand, Fiat owns part of Chrysler, and Obama has given GM to the UAW. President Obama said that the government needed billions of dollars to buy ...<< MORE >>

There are a lot of issues for our country to address, and what we get most from our elected leaders is pure spin and very little action. Barack Obama promised change and bipartisanship. but I don't remember a President that has been more partisan than Obama. He talks about bipartisanship and moderation in front of the TV cameras and he gets most Americans to wag their head in agreement. But when he is back in the White House, he is stubbornly marching us down the failed road of Marxism. Congress isn't any better. The Democrats seem to be ...<< MORE >>

In March of 2007 I wrote an article about how easy it was to manipulate the voting public. Back then there was a ballot initiative to put a tax on oil produced in California. Miraculously the price of gas at the pump dropped dramatically before the election, million dollar ads were pumped out against the proposition, and the oil tax was defeated. Not long after the proposition was defeated, the price of gas jumped back up again. Now it is 2009 and California is facing a long running budget crisis. The legislature refuses to cut back on the ...<< MORE >>

Well it has been a wild ride so far with President Obama and the his fellow triumvirates Pelosi and Reid pushing through the massive economic recovery and government takeover plan with only a few days available for public debate. And now the Democrats are gearing up for there next push towards a socialist society run by the Democrats. The latest tactic is to use a parliamentary rule called reconcilliation. (Wikipedia) Reconcilliation was setup to allow contentious budget bills to be voted on without the threat of a filibuster. This essentially will allow the Democrats to pass ...<< MORE >>
