I will not brew decaf. Decaf is the mind-killer. Decaf brings the little sleep that leads to total oblivion. I will embrace my caffeine. I will brew beverages and let them flow through, and when they are gone, I will remain…alert.

Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured, but not everyone must prove they are a citizen.

“According to the worst President in American history, “you’re on your own” economics, which apparently extended from the founding of the country until the day Barack Obama took office, didn’t work. Sure, it produced the most technologically advanced nation on the planet, the world’s largest economy, and made us into a super power, but that’s “madness” compared to Obamanomics, which cost us our AAA credit rating, has produced the longest streak of above 8% unemployment since the Great Depression, and is on track to produce 13 trillion dollars of debt over the next 10 years.

Listening to Barack Obama lecture ANYONE else on economics is like getting a lecture from Jimmy Carter on the proper way to execute a hostage rescue.”

Charges of imperialism would be more believable if the US regarded the world as a prize to be won rather than a nuisance to be tolerated.

“Liberals, it has been said, are generous with other peoples’ money,
except when it comes to questions of national survival when they
prefer to be generous with other people’s freedom and security.”

“Call me weird, but if Texans have to brandish an ID to buy cigarettes or beer, coach a youth football team, see an R-rated movie, cash a check, buy Sudafed or spray paint, pick up their children from school early, rent a video, open up a P.O. Box, pick up tickets at will call for a Bon Jovi concert, or rent a kayak to float down the Guadalupe then I don’t think it is too much to ask that a person who waddles up to a voting booth to elect our next president prove that he or she is here legally. Voting is a sacred honor for legal citizens, and I pray to all that is holy that Texans fight Holder and his boss’s overreach into state voting laws like a pit bull.”

“While the vandals are on the street corners, the Tea Party conservatives they’re working state houses, the governorships, the mayorships, the Senate, the House. See, they understand, they’ve read the Constitution. If you want to make a difference, don’t go break windows, okay? Break some phony arguments that things like austerity are going to put you in the hole. What put you in the hole is borrowing 38 cents of every dollar you spent. That’s what put you in the hole, pure and simple. Everything else is political spin.”

— on-air editor of CNBC Business News Rick Santelli explaining a key difference between the Tea Party and the Occupy Movement

Obama wasn’t experienced enough to be President. He’s in over his head.

The blue social model is killing Europe and the three states closest to bankruptcy are California, New York, and Illinois.

Anyone who would spend time rationalizing Obama’s failure is as crazy as the guy who was obsessed with Sarah Palin’s uterus.
