deadline continues to grow closer. Amidst references to no Social
Security checks, Medicare defaults and no pay for the military from the
President’s Office and a required budget cut equal to or greater than
the debt increase from the Speaker’s Office, the far right has said

THAT'S MY OPINION

Four more years of Obama
By Bob Robinson
If I understand the mixed messages correctly, in five more days – at
midnight – the world comes to an end. Assuming of course that our
“father,” Barack Obama, President of the United States of America,

million people in America, count me among the 307,999,993 who don’t
understand why this is... Read

To Get a Mandate, GOP Must Win Another Election
By Michael Barone
Those who consider themselves constitutional conservatives should take
care to consider not only the powers that the Constitution confers on
the different branches of government and reserves to the states and the
people, but also the schedule that the Constitution sets up for sharp
changes and reversals of public policy. The entire House...
