Here is a question: Does rampant racism exist in America. Why do I ask this? because there are those out there in the media who say there is. If you are conservative, you are a racist.

That is because there are those of small minds who cannot grasp that we are all Americans, Plain and simple. So what if my family has been in North America for centuries! SO WHAT! What is going to tear th... Read Full Story

Thank God we live in the USA.  Whether we like it or not, we need to remember that it is better than any place else in the world.  Why would people risk their lives to cross the desert southwest in the summer to work in agriculture?  Why have Cubans for years risked their lives to cross the Gulf of Mexico in glorified rafts to get to the US?  And to do it illegally, well, they are criminals once they cross our borders.  As such, we need to treat them like it, plain and simple.  If you do the ...

Today, was an interesting day. An idoit reporter from the Huffington Post took credit for an article run by the New York Times (slimes). Regardless of the shameless plagiarism from one liberal piece of crap to another, the article is what was important. You see, the EPA found out that a commercial herbicide was found in the drinking water in four mid-western states.  And get this, the EPA said in effect – So What!  Isn’t that peachy.  The EPA doesn’t give a crap about the po...

hey Urbansurvivalsecrets.com fans! Due to the sucky economy, I am considering putting together an ebook on making some quick cash – and no, it is not MLM or questionable activities? Fact is, the US Congress (and others in Washington DC) does not care about you and your finances. The Dems actually want a nanny state because you are too stupid to take care of yourselves (this is from an actual conversation I had with a Dem operative). Anyhow, we all can use a few extra bucks. So, I de... Read Full Story

Dear Readers, It is heading to 11:30 in Albuquerque where I traveled to today.  Yes, I am tired.  But now the news!

Then I found out after a series of emails and waits on HOLD!  I have been accused of SPAMMING! Which really pisses me off! After many calls, emails and heated discussions with that company, the results h... Read Full Story

Now for something completely different! I do not know about you, but I for one am sick of the news outlets (most newspapers, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, CNN) They continue to perpetuate an unbalanced approach to reporting on the President and his pack of lies.  I for one cannot believe that Obama is that stupid or ignorant about the folks who are out protesting the excessive taxes coming down the pipe due to Cap and Trade and Universal Health Care. The Dems are not endearing themselves to America and... Read Full Story
