Special Interest Groups Have Destroyed America's Economy & Ability to Compete in the Global Economy

By Kevin Korenthal | 09/05/08

By Kevin D. Korenthal From Big Labor to the Environmental lobby, the American economy has been bled to the point of perpetual anemia for the better part of the last 100 years. These powerful interest groups account for a great deal of the reason that pretty much nothing gets done in Congress anymore and are the main reason that the U.S. economy, having benefited from tax cuts in 2002 and 2003, is now on a collision course with recession. Often... read more »

For almost 2 days I remained frustrated by my inability to get my arms around exactly what had me so agitated. It was right in the middle of a conversation with someone about something totally unrelated to the election that it hit me.A... read more »

By Kevin Korenthal | 09/01/08

Senator Barack Obama has,earned some respect from me for the comments he has made about Governor Palin's pregnant 17 year-old daughter. That is not to say that Obama is also acting proactively against the Democrat-machine and media-sycophants that have a propensity for running hog wild on anything they perceive as a Republican hypocrisy. Anyway, here is what he said."I have heard some of the news on this and so let me be a clear as possible: I... read more »

California Republicans Propose Spending Cuts & Borrowing To Solve Budget Impass

By Kevin Korenthal | 09/01/08

Certainly the thought of borrowing against the lottery and acquiring more funds from local governments is distasteful. But raising taxes in an already soggy economy will spell devastation.

On top of that,... read more »

By Kevin Korenthal | 08/30/08

By Kevin D. KorenthalI've predicted for the last 6 months that an Obama vs. McCain race would keep a Republican in the White House but Clinton on the ticket was always the wild card. Now that Obama has made the dismal choice of "Slow Joe" Biden for VP and McCain has made the stellar choice of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, I am as pumped as I ever was during Bush/Cheney04. 3 months ago I was ready start a write-in campaign for Fred Thompson but... read more »
