• The things we learn or hope we learn!

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Just the facts, maam... There have been some pretty influential people that have come into our lives; and it seems that whatever we’ve learned from these people seems to stick with us for life – or one would hope so.  Let’s break this down into categories shall we? Let’s go with business, education, ...

• American compassion = laughable weakness

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Who was this written for? Beyond any question of doubt whatsoever, we couldn’t be happier and more pleased with the interview and question and answer period with Vince Flynn with insights given about his new book, The Pursuit of Honor, which unbeknownst to many is Mr. Flynn’s 11th best-selling effort. ...

• Global Warming Hoax

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Global warming? Well we are certain that we’re not the first ones to espouse that the entire notion of “Global Warming” has been a carefully designed hoax of all hoaxes. Yet just for the sake of our peace of mind and reporting truthful news and events we’re going to say it anyway – We told you so!  ...

• America: What is your government up too?

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  We heard it live today in an interview with Sen. Orin Hatch (R-UT) the unadulterated statement that we’ve been waiting for from someone on the Hill. During his interview with Bill Hemmer of FOX News’ America’s Newsroom, Sen. Hatch constantly referred to initiatives that ostensibly got the health care bill ...

• Oh really..? What next!

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Well then…we’re wondering if you’ve had enough lies out of this government yet. In fact, there has been so many that we just want to focus on some of the more recent blatant disgusting [no misspeaking!] lies that is, if you don’t mind. Obama Says Health Care Reform Won’t Cover Illegal Aliens ...

• Are you ready for the fight of your lives?

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Less expensive, more effective! We are sure that those involved will not soon forget the ridiculousness of the 2007 Comprehensive Reform Bill and what our ‘big brother’ government tried to pull over on us. For most of our readers – believe it or not – came to the open mistrust of government during ...

• Town halls, tea parties, and Congress!

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Wake up America! Shocked! Is perhaps the only word we can use with any degree of professionalism around here given the outrageousness of the ‘ruling elite’ we have in Washington D.C. We believe there is a profound disconnect between logic and common sense for those who allegedly represent us in the ...

• Immigration reform through 111 House Democrats

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Not undocumented rather illegal aliens It appears – rather obviously – that there was much more at stake in the interim elections last night other than becoming a new Governor, or re-election of other incumbents. Hoping to jump-start a major legislative drive on immigration reform in the U.S. Congress, more ...

• It is NOT capitalism…it’s corruption!

  
  InvestmentWatch — Authority: 157
  Government access and favoritism is NOT capitalism…it’s corruption! Government is suppose to be impartial and objective, doing what’s best for those they represent…the American people, not corporate America.

• FFQF – Abuses of government

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  Yes we know that today is Founding Father’s Quote Friday and you can bet we’ll have a quote from one or two of our founder’s; however, setting the stage and making real the notion of what our beloved government does not see – the affects of Amnesty – and the consequences upon the American people and our ...

• Emergence of public opinion

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  In stride with our previous article concerning public opinion – and the means of monitoring it – we think its only appropriate to do just a small bit of history on our various and sundry means of data collection and how such has expanded. And this will be with brevity; however, we encourage you to critically ...

• Is AT&T Behind Grassroots Groups That Are Opposed To Net Neutrality? [Astroturfing]

  
  Consumerist — Authority: 800
  In the net neutrality debate, there are a surprising number of grassroots organizations (well, surprising to me at any rate) that have filed statements against the FCCs recent draft of rules. Matthew Lasar at Ars Technica just published an interesting article where he looks at some of these groups and tries to figure ...

• Public opinion…does it matter?

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  You betcha! It is no wonder insofar as when a nation’s sovereignty, welfare, and cohesion begins to erode – moreover, when uninformed and greedy people look to score mammoth amounts of money and still worse – aim to influence and change public policy by whatever means, we feel that there is a real virus ...

• Guy Who Signed XYZ Corp. Astroturf Letter... Worked As Telco P...

  
  Computer & Internet - computer-internet.marc8.com — Authority: 169
  So, remember last week when we wrote about how anti-net neutrality lobbyists from AT&T had crafted astroturf letters for various "special interest groups" to sign -- but someone forgot to remove the boilerplate "XYZ Organization" in the first paragraph? We also noted that there was little evidence that the group ...

• Founding Father’s Quote Friday – Special Interests

  
  The Thinker — Authority: 421
  This week we decided to revisit some of the most significant writing in our nation’s history. Actually it all started with this entire notion of political action committees (PAC’s) and how most of those have – with the assistance of either one political party or the other or even big business that sees the ...
