Thought for the Day

...[T]he earth belongs in usufruct to the living…[N]o man can by natural right oblige the lands he occupied, or the persons who succeed him in that occupation, to the paiment [sic] of debts contracted by him. For if he could, he might during his own life, eat up the usufruct of the lands for several generations to come, and then the lands would belong to the dead, and not to the living, which would be reverse of our principle . . .

Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to James Madison, September 6, 1789

Today we might substitute “country” for “lands.” Yet a recent study the Congressional Budget Office — a creature of the Congress itself — reported that for the last half century every time Congress has extracted an additional incremental tax dollar from our pockets it has managed to spend a dollar and a half. Think of it: A Dollar in, a Dollar and a half out; a Billion in, a Billion and a half out; a Trillion in . . . you get the idea. This continues to place our unborn children further in debt — a debt run up willy-nilly as a legacy of our careerist Congress, in the atmosphere created by Liberal Elitism, and one hundred, eighty degrees opposite from Jefferson’s dictum. — Rense Johnson

Money in Politics

America's Energy Enemies

Put any bunko man to shame…

Now is the time for a market-steadying tax cut

A rising tide lifts all boats…

Bait and Switch

Having diagnosed America’s worsening energy situation as a short-term political problem for their party rather than a long-term economic concern impacting the health and security of our nation, Democratic leaders this week are expected to bring forth an energy bill that’s long on political posturing, but short on meaningful solutions.

Blunt Distances Himself from White House

The Number Two Republican in the House made it clear yesterday that he would be more decisive than the White House in threatening a veto of a Continuing Resolution that includes a ban on offshore drilling. In fact, House GOP Whip Roy Blunt (Mo.) went farther, suggesting…

Gang of Gangs

The Republican Gang of Five has morphed into a Gang of eight.
They call themselves the Gang of Sixteen, but it’s only a camouflage, a feint. The Republican Eight are still a Gang of Turncoats. Only the numbers have changed.

Like Nero who Fiddled While Rome Burned

by Rense Johnson, Chairman, Citizens for Term Limits
August 27, 2008

Like Nero who fiddled while Rome burned, our Mindless, Do not Drill Democrat Congress fiddled with the nation’s energy future during its first year and seven months of its majority tenure.

While gasoline prices rose to within 30 cents of doubling, the Do Not Drillers were: (Are you ready for this? We’re not making it up!)

  • Congratulating the UC-Santa Barbara Soccer Team
  • National Passport Month
  • Commending the Houston Dynamo Soccer Team
  • National Train Day
  • Great Cats and Rare Canids Act
  • International Year of Sanitation
  • Monkey Safety Act

And although they felt exceedingly proud of this outstanding record, they were fatigued from all their hard work, and decided they needed a rest.

So, Speaker Nancy Pelosi adjourned them for a month’s vacation without even considering the drilling necessary for our energy independence.

The conclusion is inescapable that the Nation and its future would be infinitely better off if every one were defeated in November.

The whole fiasco couldn’t be presented any clearer than the chart above produced by Roy Blunt’s office. It’s time for a fresh Congress!

What Would Reagan Do?

Gang of Ten . . . er . . .Five

The “Gang of Ten” has attracted much attention and press recently, because it claims go be a “compromise” to allow drilling offshore. The catch is that the “compromise” is still subject to all the bureaucratic regulations presently in place.

An Abundance of Ignorance

...Chairman Rahall ought to know that we already have “use it or lose it.”...

Pelosi Blocks Gas Price Relief

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told CNN that she would block any vote to allow offshore drilling. This remarkable stance comes in the face of the latest poll that says 73 percent of Americans favor offshore drilling, while only 27 percent oppose it.

Environmentalists' Hold on Congress

Let’s face it. The average individual American has little or no clout with Congress and can be safely ignored. But it’s a different story with groups such as Environmental Defense Fund, Sierra Club and The Nature Conservancy.
