President Obama auto-signed the fiscal cliff bill while he continues his vacation in Hawaii. Lucky us. Obama, who is vacationing in Hawaii, signed the bill using an autopen, a mechanical device that copies his signature. Call me old fashioned, but…
The fiscal cliff deal doesn’t contain its tax hikes to only those making over $400,000 per year. It also raises the payroll tax of every working American, while giving big tax breaks to the super wealthy. You didn’t hear President…
I was wondering how many Senators actually read the fiscal cliff bill they voted for in the wee hours of New Years’ day. Now we know the answer. It had to have been zero, because the bill was over 150…
Rep. Peter King (R-NY) has been all over TV blasting the GOP, not for allowing that rotten fiscal cliff deal to pass, but for failing to hold a vote in the House on the pork laden hurricane Sandy relief package…
Before jetting back out to Hawaii President Obama made it clear that he isn’t finished pillaging the successful in America. He wants more tax increases, even after the fiscal cliff deal. Following the House vote that averted the “fiscal cliff”…

Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) introduced a piece of legislation that could have come straight out of an Ayn Rand novel. It’s the Cliff Alleviation at the Last Minute (CALM) Act. Seriously, I’m not making this up. “This is not a great…
Marc Thiessen argues in his latest Washington Post piece that conservatives should let us go over the fiscal cliff, so the people will finally be forced to pay for the government they voted for. Barring a last-minute breakthrough, taxes will…
