The press is all over the story that President Bush would support a Federal increase to the minimum wage if it came with tax incentives for small business.Wow…this is the same bill that the Republicans tried to put through before the election, the Democrats fought it, the bill was ultimately defeated, and the Republicans did not make political hay out of it!Think about it folks Democrats voted against a minimum wage increase because it came with tax cuts for everyone…what makes the President think...
Once again I had an opportunity to spend some quality time in another country (Italy this time) and see first hand just how hated we (the US) really are.Here is what happened……………………………nothing!!So once again I have to agree with the “main stream media” we are just hated around the world!I had quite a few conversations with people from Turin, Milan, and Brazil and found that all of the people I talked with are still in great awe of the US. They want to either come to the US or be more like the...

Well it looks like interest in this is starting to wane but I like it so I’m going to continue with it.Two weeks ago the country I posted was Turkey (get it? I posted it on Thanksgiving…I know bad joke!)Last week’s was pretty easy: France!I’ve decided that this week’s will be a bit harder only because I will not be in this country to post one next week so you will have to wait two weeks for the next installment.I think this is a 9 out of 10 difficulty...
I get drawn into articles with titles like this:Richest 2% hold half the world’s assetsBut once you read the story you realize something that the Left forgets…rich is a matter of perspective!The first sentence of the article states “across the world that the richest two per cent of adults own more than 50 per cent of the world’s assets while the poorest half hold only 1 per cent of wealth.” While most might find this shooking and stop reading at this point they would miss the most important part…that...

A good man has resigned because Democrats and a few Republicans think that he is too combative. They seem to forget that the UN has in its midst a number of zealots bent on controlling the world by any means necessary. We need to have someone representing us that is passionate about our country and freedom, not someone that is willing to do away with all our society has just to please a few people that hate us. President Bush was harsh on those...
