In an effort to emulate the principles upon which the United States was founded, we think this mission is best fulfilled through efforts from the bottom up, not the top-down.

AFTER ACTION REPORT: LIBERALS GONE WILD!

Grassroots in Michigan.com




The most egregious action was before I could whip out my trusty Flip camera. However, the pudgy man, Erin Fox, in the extreme close up (sorry) is a usual suspect, “community organizer” and MoveOn.org operative
I have encountered him at other actions and his modus operanti is always the same, trying to get in your face to disturb and/or name calling. Although his physical intimidation is g… Continue

Wolf Moon

A Wolf Moon is the first full moon after Yule. The full moon of January. It is usually the biggest and brightest full moon of the year. This year it was even more unusual in that the Wolf Moon was also the same full moon closest to the Earth, in parigee of its orbit. Moon parigee happens quite often, but not as a full moon, and very rarely as a full Wolf Moon.

Moonrise on Friday was amazing with a blazing sunset on the opposite horizon. Cars were pulled to the side of the road watching the incr… Continue

A Message From MoreOn.org

Once again Barry has taken the exact opposite direction. As everyone knows, the King of the MoreOns takes all credit for the so-called so-far recovery from the burning Bush years. His administration has proclaimed for months that the worst is over. But the worst is still in power on Pennsylvania Avenue. The worst ain't been seen yet.

Side stepping to the next soap box in a vain attempt to disguise the failure of his HealthCare putsch, Barry has hyped up his attack on the economy he lies has alr… Continue
