Maybe you remember Woolworth’s Five and Dime stores? There were thousands. All started by Frank Winfield Woolworth, who was born in 1852 on the family’s hard scrabble potato farm near Watertown New York. Woolworth worked in a dry goods store in Watertown with no salary for the first three months. His boss told him […]
Maybe you’ve seen the commercials urging you to go to repealitnow.org. Please go to it and fill it out. This 2700 page abortion has to be stopped dead in its tracks. Why?

For the past few years, our family has been making the trek from the West side of Madison, downtown to see an Irish dance troupe perform. On Saturday we attempted to do the same, only to get stuck in a massive traffic jam caused by loopy leftists that have been protesting (and not working…) […]

The slow, but ever increasing slide of the dollar into oblivion, could be stopped and even rescued. Not by me and you, but by the Tea Party Republicans if they wipe clean the Democrat slate next year. If Tea Party Republicans can take the Senate and get rid of the RINOS (Republicans in name […]
The various uprisings and revolts in the Mid East have wreaked havoc with America, and for that matter the rest of the world. As usual, America has done exactly the wrong thing by sending warships off the coast of Libya. We will never learn to mind our own business. We will always decide who […]
The state Legislatures in a couple of states have set new records for irresponsibility. A revolution. Do they realize they are making the Democrat Party the laughing stock of not only America, but the world? “We don’t like the way the elections turned out, even though the winning candidates promised in advance what they […]
I take all types of risks every day, as do you, the reader. Life is full of risks, and there is even a field of endeavor called “Risk Management.” I risk my safety when I go out in my car, that some reckless or drunk driver won’t crash into me. I take a risk […]
