• Gosnell Found Guilty of First Degree Murder in ‘House of Horrors’ Abortion, Murder Trial

  May 13, 2013 at 5:50pm

  Besides committing essentially “execution style” abortions, reports were that they found large amount of cash. Rather than harass tax exempt organizations, the IRS should investigate why so much of the “doctor’s” “business” was in cash.

• Police Face Tough Questions on Handling of Case Involving 3 Ohio Women Rescued After 10 Years (Plus — See Chilling Photos Taken Inside the House)

  Too bad PLAN B wasn’t available then to every young women regardless of age, then they wouldn’t have “needed to be punished with a baby” too.

  Women’s groups support for PLAN B shows they care less about protecting vulnerable children than promoting carefree sex. Their position clearly supports adult abusers.

  It promotes and hides sexual abuse by adults in positions of authority. No one outside the center of the abuse needs to know, not even the parents, so the torture continues. Is this really what these groups desire for their daughters??

• Former Volleyball Star Gabrielle Reece Ignites Controversy With Marriage Advice: Being ‘Submissive’ Is a Sign of Strength

  April 15, 2013 at 1:12pm

  She’s right on. Women “civilize” men. Voluntary mutual submission (service) is what makes all good marriages; Both are servants to the other. When either partner is selfish and self-centered, the other partner soon stops caring and divorce will follow.

  When women become just like men, they get an uncivilized boy as a partner. Eventually, even the strong male, will give in to the women. Soon, afterward when she gets what she wants, the women loses interest and respect for the man because he won’t stand up for himself, and BE a man.

• The Scathing Speech That Takes the Media to Task for Blackout of Gruesome Abortion Trial: If the ‘Doctor’ Used An AR-15, You Bet They’d Care

  It’s enlightening to make a comparison between an “execution style” shooting and these “execution style abortions”. In the first case, a bullet is used to perform the execution. In the second case, scissors are used. The affect is the same; Only the tool is different.

• Here’s What’s Included in Maryland’s Controversial ‘Rain Tax’ (It’s Exactly What It Sounds Like)

  April 12, 2013 at 12:38pm

  Runoff. Many developments have retention ponds to collect water. Why not do that there and ask for a refund from Maryland for preventing water from getting into the bay? For every pool, there should be a refund to the homeowner, rather than a tax. Maybe others could put in cisterns and collect the water for their own personal use. But then Maryland will tax your collected water.

  Eventually, they will tax solar energy and wind energy. Their “energy tax base” is already being reduced by “green” cars, so this WILL happen.

• Is the ‘Common Core’ Initiative Dumbing Down America’s Students?

  March 15, 2013 at 3:06pm

  Our strength comes from our diversity, or so the administration says. So why develop and impose a universal, homogeneous education curriculum for the entire country, called Common Core? And if it’s so good, why do they need to use OUR tax dollars as “bribes” to “convince” our states to comply? The feds should never tie the return of tax dollars obtained from the states’ citizens to impose a federal agenda on the states.

  The problem with a central plan, any central plan in any area, is when it fails it hurts the entire country. The housing crisis is one example. A better option is get out of the way and encourage diverse programs in the states. If a state program fails, it largely affects only that state.

  The goal of Common Core is to make Americans like many other countries, citizens in lock step with the government and each other and thus easier to control. Government “authorized education” at the earliest age is needed to achieve this goal. Oh yea, that’s another goal, pre-K. Teach kids from birth that the “sky is green” and all children will believe it is green.

  Good slogans for this program would be “Common Core, Indoctrination through Education., or “Common Core, Common Control”

• Should the 2nd Amendment Be Taken Literally?

  March 5, 2013 at 12:57pm

  In reply to JohnJoseph.

  The left is stupid. Amendment V clearly shows that the “land or naval forces”, (i.e. MILITARY) and “the militia” are unique.

  “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia…”

• High School Student Disarms Gunman…Gets Suspended?

  March 5, 2013 at 10:41am

  From reports, the gun involved was the same type John Hinkley used, a cheap .22 Saturday Night Special. These kids that stopped the potential shooter are heroes.

  Florida law prohibits firearms and other weapons at schools, on school buses and at school bus stops. Florida also has a 10/20/LIFE law. If charged and found guilty, for brandishing a gun in the commission of a crime, it’s a ten year mandatory minimum. A first aggravated assault charge would get a 3 year mandatory minimum.

  The prosecutor has discretion, but since the charge is “aggravated assault”, he should ask for the 3 year mandatory minimum. Remember Sandy Hook and let’s get tough on crime.

• Report: Marines Using Secretive Sham Marriage Schemes to Steal Thousands Per Month in Taxpayer-Funded Benefits

  March 5, 2013 at 9:51am

  Personally heard of these going on in the 1970′s. It has probably been going on forever.

  It’s simple to stop it. Just treat all members EQUALLY. Eliminate pay for all “with dependent” rates. It’s not fair to the single military member to be paid less for performing the same duty as a married member.

• Report: Top 20% to Pay Nearly 72% of 2013 Federal Tax Burden

  March 4, 2013 at 11:02am

  Well not exactly. The federal government actually taxes working individuals at a higher rate using a “hidden” tax, the employer portion of the employee’s payroll tax. The total payroll tax of 15.3% (up to a maximum income) is split equally between the employer and employee.

  Using the total payroll tax rate and FICA maximum income levels, workers comprising the “Middle 20 PERCENT” pay 7.65% more, 21.45%.

  Tax rates are too high and hidden purposely by the government. A “tax” rate should never be negative.
