Stepping Away From The Ledge
We all know that election night was a very tough night for 49% of this country.

RINO Waterboy Wants to be Relevant
A big endorsement occurred on Nov 1st.

Bob Kerrey Goes After Deb Fischer
Polls in Nebraska have not been kind to Bob Kerrey and he has to change that soon. A full summer of feel good advertising will not get Bob anywhere, so he does the only thing a trailing candidate can do…Go negative.
I wouldn’t necessarily call Bob Kerrey’s attack against Fischer…
There’s No Need To Fear, Deb Fischer Is Here
Nebraska’s republican primary results have shocked the nation. The underdog conservative candidate and relative unknown to the nation, won the right to take on a left-wing New York socialist candidate from the democrat side in November’s general election.

Ode to the Welfare State
Hi guys. It’s been a while since I’ve written on the Blog. I’ve been pretty active on Face Book, but have been away for too long. A good friend sent me this poem that follows below. It was written in 1949, when America was wrestling with how to wean itself…
Time to end Roe vs. Wade
Time to end Roe vs. Wade

As an economist, I know markets are created to meet human desire, regardless of whether the goods or services sold in the market are legal or ethical.

Remember Ole’ Bob?
With the announcement of Ben Nelson’s retirement (I was so hoping to have many more articles exposing him as a liberal), Nelson’s seat is wide open on both sides of the political field, or is it?
The republican side is ginning up for a prime time boxing match between Jon…

Political Correctness and Christmas: Where does it get us?
Election 2012 is upon us, but first, we must get through the most political time of the year….Christmas.
I decided, that before we get full tilt into Newt, Mitt or Herman, we should enjoy a witty observation by none other than Ben Stein, a Conservative Jewish American who does a…
Governor Heineman or Governor Milk Toast?
There has been a lot of speculation as to what Governor Heineman will do when he leaves the Governor’s Office in two years. Romney’s VP? Secretary of Ag? Lobbyist?
My suggestion: Sing high tenor for the Vienna Boy’s Choir… I will let your imagination fill in the blanks!
It’s not…

AUTHOR: Elijah Lovejoy
Years ago, during his first campaign for Attorney General, there was a rumor when Bruning was in college, he got ticketed for stealing a bar sign out of Iguanas. “Who cares?” I thought. He was young.
Several years later I learned, when Bruning was in law school,…

The Deficit Dance
Why can’t Congress agree on fixing the Deficit?
Republicans and Democrats have been spending a tremendous amount of energy discussing the deficit, the debt ceiling, and the need to pass legislation to address the August 2nd deadline. Both sides are accusing the other of being unwilling to compromise. What can…
Sen. Ben Nelson, Your Mask Came Off
The House recently passed “Cut, Cap and Balance”, so it was the Senate’s turn to tackle the bill. As we all know Harry Reid was not going to let it pass, so he demanded a quick vote to prevent the American people a chance to contact their senators in order…

My Prayer for America,
On Tuesday President Obama stated he cannot guarantee retirees will receive their Social Security checks August 3″ absent an agreement with Congress to raise the debt ceiling.
