Since Boston, the left has take aim at a whole new target: gunpowder.  Both smokeless and black powder are being targeted in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombing. We knew it wasn’t over. President Obama told us, and for once we believed him. We knew the push to restrict our Second Amendment rights was ...

ThinkProgress.org is at it again, wringing their hands at the idea of restricting our access to thinks that usually accomplish nothing except giving progressives an opportunity to pat themselves on the back. Sometimes, I just shake my head at the ignorance.  I mean, it must require a certain willful stupidity to put your head in ...

President Obama was convinced that he could get expanded background checks for gun purchases.  Polls showed 85 to 90 percent of Americans supported expanded background checks. Over at United Liberty, I offered up this: President Obama loves to point to a poll that said 90 percent of all Americans wanted tougher background checks.  After the ...

President Barack Obama stood outside the White ...

After a bomb rocked Boston, some marathon runners are contemplating not running.  It’s inevitable unfortunately.  Well, I’m not a marathon runner…but I will be now. Marathons are exhausting, grueling events. They’re not for the faint of heart, and that’s when you’re not concerned about a bomb going off and injuring or killing you or those ...

MSNBC recently launched a promo where they believe that they are somehow entitled to some kind of ownership of my children.  Really? MSNBC apparently believes your children aren’t really your children. In a recent promo, they claim that investing billions more than many other industrialized nations hasn’t produced any real results because we aren’t viewing ...

My first contribution over at TheBlaze. Asking about media bias is usually a good way to sniff out where someone falls on the political spectrum. If they run progressive, they probably don’t think it exists. If they’re a conservative or libertarian, they most likely believe it’s a very real thing. Well, as a journalist, I’m here to tell ...
