The GOP’s Spending Spree. Aren’t Republicans supposed to be the party of small government? – Those were the good ole days, when the GOP cared about controlling government spending on wasteful and corrupt social programs, and didn’t consider the Constitution to be some irrelevant relic of the past.

Bring back gridlock – Having so much agreement between the DemonRats and the GOP is extremely dangerous for taxpayers, to say nothing of the Constitution that both parties routinely flagrantly disregard with no consequences.

Federal Income Tax Burden Falls Ever Harder on Taxpayers in Areas with High Cost of Living

Lady Killer Ted Kennedy is actually a walking waddling parody; but this is still amusing.

Garbage Time – I’m glad to see that I’m not the only one disgusted with Fox News’ trashy focus on the celebrity court cases. I haven’t been watching much of Fox News for the past several months because their target audience must be those who just can’t get enough dissection of every minute irrelevant detail of these cases. The only one who seems to still care about covering real news is Brit Hume. It’s a shame that Fox News has become just like the other sensationalist media because I think there is a market for people like me, who couldn’t care less about these celebrity scandals.

A New Age for AARP – Calling AARP nonpartisan shows how reliable NewsWeak is. AARP has consistently supported any program to increase the size and cost of big government programs. That hasn’t changed in this case. The DemonRats are just mad that the GOP is going to get credit for this new boondoggle.

IRS Audits Nation’s Top Teachers’ Union – Maybe the Clinton Gang’s protection of left wing charities from having to obey the laws against overt political activities is finally wearing off.

As with the original Medicare program, by the time we discover the true cost of these new benefits, it will be too late to turn back and everyone over 65 will literally be addicted to this taxpayer funded subsidy.

Tax repeal revs up PRC car dealerships – Funny how that works. Reduce taxes and encourage purchases. As I’ve already said on several occasions, the sales tax revenues from vehicle sales should more than offset the revenue loss caused by Arnold’s repeal of the previous governor’s tripling of the car tax.

Schwarzenegger raising fast funds — and critics’ ire – So much for Arnold’s promise of an end to the standard practice of hustling for campaign contributions.

A bequest or a breach of trust? – Unfortunately, this kind of thing happens far too often with banks and attorneys literally stealing from the recently departed and decimating their wishes to leave things to their family members.
