Romney seems stuck at 25 percent support among Republicans. That’s because 75 percent of GOP voters simply don’t trust him. There are at least 740.5 million reasons not to trust Romney on taxes, either.

With 2011 drawing to a close, it is time to account. As an early-and-often chronicler of Chicago-on-the-Potomac, I am amazed at the stubborn and clingy persistence of President Barack Obama’s snowblowers in the media. See no scandal, hear no scandal, speak no scandal.

Dartmouth College professor Brendan Nyhan asserted in May — while Operation Fast and Furious subpoenas were flying on Capitol Hill — that “one of the least remarked upon aspects of the Obama presidency has been the lack of scandals.” Conveniently, he defines scandal as a “widespread elite perception of wrongdoing.”

Democrats must be drooling. Republicans soon will find themselves on the wrong side of middle-class taxpayers, the unemployed and senior citizens. The Left and Occupy Wall Street will holler about this all year long. And Republican candidates — from presidential, to congressional, to state-level nominees — will be in jeopardy. All of this needlessly reinforces every stereotype of Republicans as cold, cruel and concerned only for the wealthy.

It would be far better for Republicans to put Barack Obama and Harry Reid at loggerheads and force Obama to choose between unions and environmentalists regarding the Keystone XL pipeline. Boehner can do this by abandoning the contraption that he has created, reconvening the House and sending the Democratic Senate its own bill with a simple, two-word change. And to that lightly amended measure, Boehner should attach a card that reads: “Your move, Harry.”

There exists a great ideological divide in this nation over which of two primary sets of policy prescriptions ought to be adopted to rescue America from its economic malaise, its bankrupting debt and a host of other major issues.

Conservative opposition to Obama isn’t about race, and I’m confident this administration is well aware of that but is using the race card anyway, out of political desperation, to the destruction of the nation, and to racial relations. It’s disgraceful and unconscionable.

Did Gingrich ruffle some feathers when he was Speaker of the House? Yes, enough for it to cost him that position. But he also showed that he could produce results.

In a world where we can make our choices only among the alternatives actually available, the question is whether Newt Gingrich is better than Barack Obama — and better than Mitt Romney.

Romney is a smooth talker, but what did he actually accomplish as governor of Massachusetts, compared to what Gingrich accomplished as Speaker of the House? When you don’t accomplish much, you don’t ruffle many feathers. But is that what we want?

From the standpoint of science and economics, ethanol is a terrible substitute for gasoline. It is a net consumer of energy. (More is used to produce it than ethanol generates when it is burned.) Ethanol is highly corrosive. It damages engines and can’t be transported in pipelines. Ethanol has a lower octane rating than gasoline, so it lowers vehicle mileage.

The government “subsidized a product that didn’t exist, mandated its purchase though it still didn’t exist, is punishing oil companies for not buying the product that doesn’t exist, and is now doubling down on the subsidies on the hope that someday it might exist,” said the Wall Street Journal in an editorial. “We’d call this the march of folly, but that’s unfair to fools.”

Some people are saying it’s time for the ammo box not the ballot box. It’s too late for the ammo box. Until the ballot box weans the people off the government nipple there won’t be enough support for the ammo box. When the first unconstitutional law was passed , if all patriots had responded with force and determination and complete resolve, it would have been enough. Now most of the country looks down their noses at patriots. Even the tea parties are not immune.

But God did not promise to defend our Constitution. He left that up to us. He doesn’t even defend Himself these days. Obviously, He figures if we can’t even defend our brilliant Constitution we’re not worth His notice. He’s had a lot of experience with our type.

You may have heard of a man called Moses and his trials in the desert as the agent of God’s mercy. Those Moses was called upon to save kept whining at God. They didn’t want manna and quail. They wanted McDonald’s. After God had saved them many times ( and thumped them many times too, just to show them Who was boss), they still rebelled and lost the promised land and Jesus and the Christians had to get it back for them. Do they sound like Americans or what?

Did our founding fathers not remember Moses when they penned that piece of asswipe? The most damning thing was their preference for crooked lawyers (redundancy intended), and judges. The Constitution must not have meant what it read if it had to be interpreted. Especially by the afore mentioned elite.

So if, by some intervention of His mercy, we do get our country back, surely you realize that the people are fickle and it will be lost again. Unless we take charge of our schools and allow no treasonous propaganda, and require that all future generations are schooled in the words of our founding fathers that we must guard and consecrate our Constitution.

If we get our country back, we must allow not the slightest deviation from our legitimate government and the protection of our rights. Only then will the ammo box work. Myself, I look for the prophesy of Churchill to come true. There will come a time to fight with no hope of winning, because it is better to die fighting than to live as slaves.

Humane Society for Shelter Pets
Humane confusion is widespread in America. Despite the words “humane society” in its name, the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is not formally affiliated with any humane societies that operate at a city, county or regional level. HSUS does not run a single pet shelter. And the vast majority of its funds are kept for its own agenda. One percent of its budget consists of grants to pet shelters. Most Americans aren’t aware of these facts.

Similarly, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) is not affiliated with other local SPCAs (but does run one shelter in New York City). Generally, pet shelters are independent organizations.

Editors note: A fool and his money are soon parted. Just remember that the Republican Party and these groups don’t spend the money where you might want.

The most prevalent theme in President Barack Obama’s Dec. 6 Osawatomie, Kan., speech was the need for greater “fairness.” In fact, though the president never defined the term fair(ness), he used it 15 times. Explaining his new hero, Teddy Roosevelt, Obama said: “But Roosevelt also knew that the free market has never been a free license to take whatever you can from whomever you can. He understood the free market only works when there are rules of the road that ensure competition is fair and open and honest.” What’s fair competition is somewhat subjective, but let me suggest a few examples of what’s clearly unfair.
