SENATE REPUBLICANS BACK $14 MILLION HIDDEN TAX INCREASE.
May 17, 2008 - 07:51

The Republicans in the State Senate rolled over for Governor Phil Bredesen and passed a $14 million tax hike on iPod downloads. They didn't have the spine to zero out his party bunker, and now they slip a tax increase past most Tennessee voters in the final days of the legislative session. Looks like the spending disease that has infected the RINO (Republican in Name Only) class in Washington has spread to Tennessee. CLICK HERE.

Only FIVE State Senators (all Republicans) voted "no" on this tax increase. Diane Black, Jim Tracy, Mae Beavers, Paul Stanley and Jack Johnson are doing their best to beat back the RINO spending spree. They deserve our thanks!


The rest of the so-called Republicans in the Tennessee State Senate deserve our contempt. You can contact them here. CLICK HERE. You can find the House results HERE.


By the way, in a $28 BILLION dollar state budget, the idea that this extra $14 million was "essential" is a total crock! Perhaps the legislators who gave away millions of dollars last year to local non-profit groups as a scheme to use of taxpayer money as campaign cash should chip in to pay the difference.

 
HUCKABEE IS A BLITHERING IDIOT!
May 17, 2008 - 07:51
Huckster joked about Barack Obama being shot at during a speech to the NRA on Friday. Doesn't he know that only Democrats can get away with assasination humor? CLICK HERE. And it is not even funny. Wouldn't the Huckster duck if somebody was shooting at HIM?
 
THE WORST REPUBLICAN U.S. SENATOR??
May 17, 2008 - 07:51
With so many strong candidates for the title, it is really hard to single out just ONE, but Lindsay Grahamnesty is a pretty good pick for the dishonor! CLICK HERE. Larry Craig deserves dishonorable mention, and Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins and Arlen Sphincter are all pretty pitiful, too. Our Presidential nominee could have edged into the top spot if his buddy Lindsay wasn't in the running.
 
VOTER ANGER AT THE GOP IS INCREASING.
May 17, 2008 - 07:59
And a lot of that anger is rightfully (no pun intended) coming from Republicans themselves! Well, at least the REAL Republicans are angry. CLICK HERE.

MISSOURI STEPS UP ANTI-ILLEGAL LEGISLATION.
May 17, 2008 - 11:03
This is the type of legislation that is causing a flood of illegal immigrants...OUT of the country! Where is the leadership in Tennessee on this issue? CLICK HERE.
 
SAUDIS TELL BUSH TO POUND SAND BY ONLY RELEASING A LITTLE MORE OIL.
May 17, 2008 - 08:18
It is ridiculous that an American President has to grovel and beg for economic mercy from the Saudi princes. CLICK HERE. The Saudis did agree to increase production by 300,000 barrels a day...not what the President wanted, but not an "absolutely not" like the media has portrayed it. The Tennessean, for example, headlines the story as "Bush Rebuffed", but the story itself notes the increase in production...on page 10 of the newspaper. Clearly, the Tennessean is simply a propaganda arm of the "hate Bush" Democratic Party.
 
CONGRESS IS TO BLAME FOR HIGH OIL PRICES IN THIS COUNTRY!
May 17, 2008 - 10:01
We have plenty of oil in the U.S. But the Democrats in Congress won't let us get to it. CLICK HERE. We need to start using food as an economic weapon, just as our competitors are using oil. The Saudis can't grow corn. It is not like they can simply start developing agriculture in the desert. The only reason we don't have enough oil is because we are not drilling for it on our own land. We can drill for our oil. They can't pick corn that won't grow. The sooner we get to our own oil, the sooner we can tell them to keep their oil while we charge them $100 for a loaf of bread!
 
OBAMA IS GEOGRAPHICALLY CHALLENGED.
May 17, 2008 - 08:02
Last week he proclaimed that he had visited "57" U.S. states. This week he told a crowd how happy he was to be in Souix City. Unfortunately, he was in Souix FALLS. CLICK HERE. Maybe he should pick that Miss USA contestant as his VP.
 
NITWIT GROUP OFFENDED BY STARBUCKS LOGO.
May 17, 2008 - 07:57
I prefer the coffee at Dunkin Donuts. Or the tea at World Cup of Tea. But it isn't because of some mermaid logo! So-called "Christian" groups like the one in a froth over the Starbucks "retro" logo give anti-Christian groups plenty of ammunition in the culture wars. CLICK HERE.

OBAMA TARGETS CHRISTIAN VOTERS BY POSING WITH THE CROSS!!
May 17, 2008 - 08:44

For a guy reared by a Muslim father and an atheist mother he sure uses the Cross a lot in his campaign commercials and materials. CLICK HERE. Is that the pulpit of Trinity United Church of Christ?


And despite what Obama says these days, he was indeed a Muslim when he lived in Indonesia and attended a Muslim school. CLICK HERE. Will the Obama campaign be using this particular brochure when they campaign for the Muslim votes in Dearborn-istan, Michigan???

And why is the mainstream media ignoring this story? CLICK HERE.

 
WHY IS OBAMA "FLATTERED" BY THE TERRORIST SUPPORT HE IS RECEIVING?
May 17, 2008 - 08:44
Hamas is a terrorist orgainization. They kill people, innocent men, women and children, to promote their Islamic Jihad. They tried to kill people yesterday by firing a rocket from Gaza into a shopping mall in Israel. They will try to kill people tomorrow. Occasionally they take time out from their murderous efforts to talk about politics. They want Barack Obama to be President of the United States. He doesn't see anything troubling about that. That is worse than the fact the terrorists are supporting his presidential campaign. CLICK HERE.

SHOULD AMERICAN TAXPAYERS PAY THE TAB TO BAILOUT THE BIG THREE AUTOMAKERS?
NO WAY, NO HOW!!!
YES, THE INDUSTRY IS MUCH TOO IMPORTANT FOR US TO LET IT FAIL.
IT DEPENDS ON THE TERMS OF THE DEAL. WHAT INTEREST RATE WILL THEY PAY FOR THE CASH? WHAT DO WE GET AS COLLATERAL?
LET'S BAILOUT TWO OF THE THREE AND LET ONE FAIL. THEY SHOULD COMPETE TO BE IN THE TOP TWO BY CUTTING COSTS AND WAGES!
YES, BECAUSE WE CAN SAVE THEM JUST LIKE WE SAVED THE BANKS, INSURANCE COMPANIES, ETC.
NOT SURE.
