I don't think the average citizen even realize how much the Social Security Medicare trust account actually support.  In Obamacare it even refers to it as the Social Security Medicare Medicaid Trust. The government destroyed the trust when they couldn't stand having that money just sitting there increasing and they cou...more

Let's all go to the track and give them a "Tebow" salute to God.   Excessive celebration?! NO  Youthful exuberance!!! Yeah! With this country suffering from turmoil and violence, I would think that youth believing in the power of God would be a good thing.   Lunatics!  The left is really pushing to make a belief in God...more

I agree that there are many who honestly need occasional assistance but I think the people that take advantage of the system need to be weeded out of the system because they are creating the negative image of government assistance.  There are many families who have known no other way of life because that has been the w...more

I'm happy she is doing so well but I hope doctors have not mislead her about what may lie ahead.  My sister had MDS and nobody "beats it".   You pray it doesn't come back.  But it does.  My sister was 54 when she died.

The proposed pay raise was initiated by an Obama executive order.  And talking about career politicians.  Biden has been in DC since 1973!  Reid and Pelosi are also dinosaurs in congress; since 1987 they have done their share of political mistakes.  As for congressional pensions' its a misconception that congress gets ...more

How does a 2% cut in increase they will receive this year do that much?  They still have the same amount of money they had for 2012 plus 98% of the proposed increase for 2013.   Its ridiculous to think that a 2% cut in their raise is going to do that much damage.  There is a lot of fraud and waste in just about every d...more

MSN, kinda petty don't ya think!  Is that the most important news story you had to write about today.  When are you going to start getting serious about what's happening in this country?  When are you going to quit being so bias and stop covering up for Obama?  We know you hate Fox because they bring up things you don'...more
