Sterling, Media and the Race Card -- a Confederacy of Dunces

The Wages of Federal Bureaucrats' Laziness and Greed is Death
image For anyone laboring under the assumption that the "negligent homicide for bureaucrat bonuses" scandal that plagues the VA hospital in Phoenix, Arizona must be anomalous, think again.

image Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says it's time for the NFL's Washington Redskins to change their name, linking the issue to racist comments by a professional basketball team owner.

Smoking Gun: Trail of Benghazi lies loops back to White House
image The truth about Benghazi is finally trickling out. The curtains are lifting. The "smoking gun" has been found.
