Keith Anderson accepts no handouts. Read the story, it’s amazing.

Oh, and tax simplicity is another campaign promise Obama did the exact opposite of. But if you honestly believed Obama was going to do anything to ease America’s tax burden, you really were a rube.
$200 Million spent to drum up support for Obamacare. Democrats’ idea of fiscal discipline apparently includes spending money to try and get taxpayers to support spending even more money.
Because it doesn’t make financial sense.
Hint for everyone who actually cares about the environment: Something that’s more expensive is that way because it takes more resources to produce.
Here’s a video of a 6 year old girl getting groped by TSA agents. And remember, the Obama administration is guaranteeing they will unionize, so they really don’t care about the job they do.
The public-private partnership model.
It works for other government systems too – if we let it.
The women who made the false accusations that the media and academia jumped to support was just arrested for stabbing her boyfriend.
GM cars where the steering wheel breaks off while you’re driving it. This is so much worse than the made-up Toyota acceleration issue, I’m sure we’re certain to hear about it everywhere in the news, right?
What does the justice department do when Acorn pleads guilty to massive vote fraud in Nevada? Issue a $5000 fine. Nothing else.
It sounds neat, but I will remain skeptical until they go commercial. And actually sell products.
Sounds like a lot, doesn’t it? It’s not – it’s a piddling one half of one percent of this year’s deficit. Democrats won’t agree to a penny more, and think we should be grateful they’re willing to cut even that much. Of all the government spending, they nearly forced a shutdown because they couldn’t even propose anything else they were willing to cut. Probably the only reason they agreed to the compromise is because they know, despite their inane rhetoric, that they would be the ones at fault – since they had both houses and the presidency back last fall, and didn’t pass a budget when they were supposed to. But at least now they can go play without anyone in the media pointing out the hypocrisy of calling something so urgent before leaving on a vacation (oh wait, the media wouldn’t do that to a Democrat, nevermind). Oh, and by the way, if the government had shut down, government workers would literally have been forbidden from working. Cushy, isn’t it?
So where does all of this leave the U.S., fiscally? Things have hardly changed – we’re facing a near term financial crisis. What was supposed to be the end signs of things in four years is now nine months away. And no, we can’t tax ourselves out of the situation, no matter how many rich people Democrats find to complain about. Democrats can’t find a program they won’t defend to the death, even if it’s the death of all of us, but they’ll lecture us about our spending even as they try and double money for things like conservation.
