Hey, folks! Don’t get big heads over this, but the responses the Tea Party groups and Patriot organizations have been getting from you has them growing by leaps and bounds. The results we’ve been having, getting the Conservative message out in our own blocks, streets, cities and towns, has been nothing less than spectacular. People who have never before in their lives been politically active are joining in some numbers. Disaffected, burnt out or just plain disgusted Democrats are coming into our movement in increasing numbers. The all important independents are here in strength… these folks are tending toward strong Conservatism. And finally, the Conservatives themselves, ...

I heard President Obama whining about the Tea Party yesterday on the radio while we were driving across the Nevada desert. He was in a Town hall meeting broadcast on CNBC, he wanted some specifics from the Tea Party, but here is the whining that got my blood pressure up. “The problem that I’ve seen in the debate that’s been taking place and in some of these Tea Party events is, I think they’re misidentifying sort of who the culprits are here,” said Obama. “As I said before, we had to take some emergency steps last year. But the majority of economists will tell you that the emergency steps we take are not the problem long-term.” Just more whining that he ...

Republican Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell, left, answers a question during a candidate forum, Sept. 16, in Wilmington, Del.(Rob Carr/AP) Christine O’Donnell beat Rep. Mike Castle in Delaware’s Republican Senate primary this week, and Democrats in Washington swooned with joy. They figured that Mr. Castle, a moderate in a moderate state, would have been tough for Democratic candidate Chris Coons to beat. But Ms. O’Donnell? A pushover. She’s a sharp-edged "tea party" favorite running in a soft-edged political culture. She’ll have to answer too many questions about past statements and alleged financial improprieties. Look at the polls! She’s so ...

At WorldNetDaily’s Take Back America 2010 conference in Miami this weekend, ThinkProgress spoke to William Murray, the chairman of a group organizing protests against the proposed Park51 community center in lower Manhattan. Murray recently ran an advertisement against building mosques in America. During our interview, Murray noted that Frank Gaffney, a well-funded anti-Muslim activist, actually provided Newt Gingrich with the idea for Republicans to ban sharia law in the United States. Asked why some Republican leaders, like Mitt Romney, have been relatively quiet on his crusade against Park51, Murray suggested that Romney might reveal “similarities between Islam and ...
(Delaware) Chris Coons: The Making of a Bearded Marxist

While most of the attention in the Delaware race to win Vice President Biden's old Senate seat has focused on the Republican candidate, Tea Party favorite Christine O'Donnell, her Democratic rival, Chris Coons, is now coming under scrutiny -- a development that could give O'Donnell's lagging campaign a boost. Coons, 47, has already been targeted by Republicans for an article he wrote for the Amherst College newspaper when he was 21 -- a piece entitled "Chris Coons: The Making of a Bearded Marxist." Coons wrote about his political evolution from a conservative college student who founded the Amherst College Republicans into a Democrat suspicious of America's ...

A massive, smoky fire underneath a bridge that carries trains over the Harlem River halted all Metro-North traffic in and out of the city Monday afternoon, officials said. "At this point, there is no service into or out of Grand Central," said spokesman Sam Zambuto. The blaze broke out around 11:40 a.m. in wooden pilings underneath the rail bridge that carries all Metro-North's trains from Manhattan to the Bronx at 138th St. "We don't have a cause of the fire at this point," Zambuto said. No injuries have been reported. Fire boats furiously sprayed water over the pilings that protect the bridge - which is designed to pivot to allow boats to pass - from ...

The longest and deepest U.S. recession since the Great Depression ended in June 2009, lasting 18 months, the National Bureau of Economic Research said. “The committee decided that any future downturn of the economy would be a new recession and not a continuation of the recession that began in December 2007,” the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based bureau’s business cycle dating group said today in a statement. “The basis for this decision was the length and strength of the recovery to date.” The committee is the accepted arbiter of when recessions start and end. Marked by a collapse in housing and sub-prime mortgage lending that triggered a global meltdown in financial ...

It’s the burgeoning confrontation between the Republican Party machinery status quo and a newly-awakened wave of patriotism and political awareness which was not present two years ago. This is one of the many things the Marxists don’t get about the Conservative movement, because they reference everything as an ideologically-driven environment. What the left has tried to do here in this country has united and ignited the right as nothing else could, melding the various factions of the right into a Conservative Patriot Movement, which encompasses the Tea Party groups, the Tea Party Express, Patriotic Resistance and others. In the beginning, say, two years ago, we only represented ...

Fannie Mae Began Buying $1,000-Down Mortgages Without Approval By Jody Shenn - Sep 15, 2010 2:15 PM PT Email Share Fannie Mae agreed to finance loans to homebuyers putting as little as $1,000 down without getting the approval of the U.S. agency in charge of minimizing the costs of the mortgage company’s bailout. While “any significant actions” taken by the Washington- based company and rival Freddie Mac must be “reviewed and approved” by their overseer, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, Fannie Mae began buying the so-called Affordable Advantage mortgages from state housing finance authorities without taking that step, Edward J.

Americans Renew Call for Third Party (58% favor third party)

PRINCETON, NJ -- Americans' desires for a third political party are as high as they have been in seven years. Fifty-eight percent of Americans believe a third major political party is needed because the Republican and Democratic Parties do a poor job of representing the American people. That is a significant increase from 2008 and ties the high Gallup has recorded for this measure since 2003. The finding, based on an Aug. 27-30 USA Today/Gallup poll, comes at a time when Americans are widely dissatisfied with the way things are going in the United States and give relatively weak approval ratings to the president and Congress. Though the rise in support for a third party could be ...

US officials finally declared BP's broken oil well in the Gulf of Mexico "dead" on Sunday, five months after the deadly explosion that set off one of the costliest and largest environmental disasters ever. Retired admiral Thad Allen, the US pointman for the response to the disaster, said the operation to intersect and cement the deepwater well had been successfully completed. "With this development, which has been confirmed by the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, we can finally announce that the Macondo 252 well is effectively dead," Allen said.

When I was going to school at the University of Illinois-Chicago, I used to work at Coluta's Pizza on Diversey Ave. I did this to support myself while in school. One day, somebody called in to place an order to be delivered to a bad neighborhood. Another, older, more seasoned driver, took the delivery and brought it back to the restaurant and told the owner that there were a bunch of black guys hiding in the alley. It had all the signs of a set up. The next driver in the queue was me, so of course he sent me with the same order, but didn't bother to mention the guys hiding in the alley. When I arrived there I called the phone on the order bill, the guy answered the phone and he ...

Barack Obama’s America doesn’t exist and never has. Seen through the eyes of Conservatives, it’s a bleak and desolate landscape. We should win in November. We should win really big in November. What we have to be very careful of is over-confidence. Over-confidence has a way of creeping in, especially when all the political forecasts, even the left’s own, are indicating a huge sea-change. In the short-term we have to be prepared for the left’s usual election day hi-jinks. Let us not forget the tens of thousands of false registrations generated by ACORN. By the way, ACORN is still lurking out there under various names, and there is evidence of a resurgent ACORN in ...

(CNN) -- A watchdog group says it plans to ask authorities in Delaware to investigate Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell's finances. At issue are more than $20,000 of spending in 2009 and 2010 that Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington claims was illegal. "It turns out Miss O'Donnell has treated her campaign funds like they are her very own personal piggy bank. She's used that money to pay for things like her rent, for gas, meals and even a bowling outing. And that's just flat-out illegal," said Melanie Sloan, the group's executive director. In an interview on CNN's "AC360," Sloan said her organization would be sending ...
