Pennsylvania’s “conservative” Governor Tom Corbett (R) broke the news a few months ago that he wanted to start enforcing the law that online retailers collect taxes on purchases made by Pennsylvanians and return them to Harrisburg. This, Corbett claimed, would increase our revenue by getting the money that was “owed” and help us with our government funding issues. Corbett also intimated that it might help boost struggling brick-and-mortars in the commonwealth because the tax collection would discourage online purchases. So, starting September 1, 2012, expect all of your online …

If the Barry Goldwater-Ronald Reagan legacy embodies what most observers think of as traditional, small-government conservatism, there have always been those on the right who stress character and morality first. I too am socially conservative, in that I believe human life is sacred, societal health is dependent on the health of the family and our religious traditions and heritage should be observed, protected and even promoted. I actually believe having a small or limited government would naturally promote all of these things.
That said, when Bill Clinton was conservatives’ main target, …

Sen. Rand Paul has said that Newt Gingrich “goes against everything the tea party stands for.” This might be an understatement.
The tea party originally stood for one simple but important message: Stop spending. For tea partiers, the “Troubled Asset Relief Program” or TARP was the litmus test and any Republican who supported it faced the wrath of the movement. Explained Utah tea party leader David Kirkham in May 2010:
I think it’s a matter of fiscal or financial responsibility … What the tea party people are about and the vote for …

When I was growing up, Superman was the ultimate hero on American television. The opening promotion proudly proclaimed that Superman was fighting for “truth, justice, and the American way!” Unfortunately, Superman is fiction, and there is neither truth nor justice in our American court rooms today.
My good friend, Bernard Von Nothaus has been convicted of counterfeiting in what I perceive to be one of the most blatant examples of fraud this world has ever known. An Alice in Wonderland event where up is down, and nothing is real. Bernard is …

It is finally 2012 and there is a huge debate going on in the public square as to the direction our nation will go for the next four years. This is because 2012 is a Presidential election year and people on all sides of the aisle are getting involved in the political process, many of whom will be doing so this year for the very first time.
Make no mistake, the 2012 presidential election is huge but I am afraid it is overshadowing many other races that are going on …

During the ABC News debate on January 7, 2012, the moderator brought up a statement Ron Paul had recently made regarding “chickenhawks,” or politicians who are hawkish about going to war but personally shirked the opportunity and dodged the draft and/or chose not to enlist to serve in the U.S. military.
When asked if he would recant this statement, Dr. Paul stood his ground and said, “I think people who don’t serve when they could and they get three or four or even five deferments have no right to send our …

In 2006, in an interview with NPR, Rick Santorum said:
One of the criticisms I make is to what I refer to as more of a libertarianish right. You know, the left has gone so far left and the right in some respects has gone so far right that they touch each other. They come around in the circle. This whole idea of personal autonomy, well I don’t think most conservatives hold that point of view. Some do. They have this idea that people should be left alone, be able …

Below is the written endorsement in its entirety. It is excellently written and Mr. Scheuer hits numerous nails on the head. For all those who like Ron Paul on economics but are leery about his foreign policy views, this is a must read. One of the foremost experts on middle eastern terrorism explains why Ron Paul’s foreign policy would be the best thing for America.
Dr. Paul or U.S. bankruptcy, more wars, and many more dead soldiers and Marines

Two recent experiences underlined for me what Iowans …

It is being reported that the final results are in for the Iowa Caucus and the winner is Mitt Romney with Rick Santorum coming out of nowhere these past few days finishing in a close second place taking with just eight votes less than the winner. The good congressmen Ron Paul took third which I assure you will have all the talking heads on the radio (who feared he might win) praising the results of the primary and their accuracy in reflecting how the rest of the nation will …

A press release from Dudley Brown, Executive Director of the National Association for Gun Rights:

The fact is, Rick Santorum does have a long history of supporting gun control.
In the 90s, he voted to support the Lautenberg Gun Ban, which stripped law-abiding gun owners of their Second Amendment rights for life, simply because they spanked their children or did nothing more than grab a spouses wrist.
He voted for a bill in 1999 disguised as an attempt to increase penalties on drug traffickers with guns… but it also included a provision to …
