Don’t Kid Yourself; it’s All about Obama, Pelosi, and Rahm – and A Guy Named Joe Walsh
Obama and his socialist cabal have channeled the policies of Hoover and FDR into a movement that turned an ordinary bust into the Great Depression – sound familiar?” ICE pondered whether Obama understands what he’s doing (he does) and asks: “What else do they have in store for us?” The answers are complicated, yet simple. It is about changing the face of America.

U.S. Textbooks Ignore Islam and Jihad When Covering History of 9/11 Attacks
You won’t believe what’s intentionally left out from our children’s school textbooks: Who perpetrated the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Was it a group of men merely fighting “for a cause,” or a band of radical Muslims bent on violent jihad?

Simple. He takes on a highly controversial and publicity-generating subject that will NOT offend anyone while hoping the public will forget about the slap in the face refusal from FEMA. (more…)

Illinois Democrats Support Cuts To Medicaid While Endorsing Care For Illegals
Once again, political correctness reigns supreme in the state of Illinois. Governor Pat Quinn and the state Democratic Party met last week to discuss how to cut $2.7 million or 20 percent from the state’s Medicaid budget. The health care program serves nearly 3 million residents, a majority of them seniors, pregnant women or those with a disability. (more…)
