Unions aren’t the only villains,
By Bob Rhoades
It was all over the news this week, teachers and public employees
protesting in Ohio and Wisconsin. Every once in a while this
thing raises its ugly head. This time it’s right after a new
governor has taken office. As the State of Ohio goes, new
governors have to mess with stuff for about six months and then after
they’ve got new furniture and hired a bunch of people who don’t know
what they’re doing to be the boss of people who, for the most part, do
know what they’re doing, they settle in. Mr. Kasich as decided to
pick on public employees as the source of all evil having to do with
government’s shortcomings in the money world. It’s usually a good idea

By Al Bliss
The Sidney Liberty Group has two very active people that are making
things happen -- the corresponding secretary, H.R. Pence and president,
Dr. Joe Lisanti. They initiated a rush effort to have people from all

Human Events... Four problems that can only exist if Big
Government creates them
by John Hayward
On Monday morning, President Obama dropped the bloated corpse of a
bizarre, $3.73 trillion budget on the steps of Capitol Hill. It

spending and Big Government devotion of Obama’s first two years almost
without hesitation, despite the historic pounding his party took in the
