A few days ago I wrote about entering the teenage age days until November 2. The “teenagers” were in full force today and in case you missed it, check out this “stomping-of…

I had it all planned out. My email for the day was done in my head and I could not wait to get home to write. Life was good. Another post was done and I was ready to relax for the evening (ha!).

Yesterday Meg Whitman, candidate for Governor of California, received a huge sucker punch from her opponent, Jerry Brown. He called her a dirty name that rhymes with “bore” (like him) and starts with a “w.” You would think the women would rally…

Get involved and show up wearing your t-shirts -- "Don't Raise My Taxes." Sit as close to the front as possible and remind them that we are still not happy with their votes. You can review the agenda at…

Yesterday I was interviewed by a television crew from Japan. How the heck did that happen? Some days I wonder what happened to life as I knew it since September 2008. The day we bailed out banks turned many Americans’ lives inside…

Don’t you wish you could be a fly on the wall in the bedroom of those who put America into this terrible mess? Wouldn’t it be nice to see them toss and turn and lose sleep over their jobs in DC.

We work with her and her team at Liberty Central every day as we fight together to Restore the…
