Way back before 2012, I argued that if Mitt Romney was the nominee, he'd lose. He simply had no chance because the base wouldn't support him. Then, as the election drew closer, I'll admit it. I got caught up in things. I started to think that he might actually pull it off. In the end, obviously, my initial instincts were proven right.

Obama: You're not allowed an opinion on immigration unless you're Native American.

Maybe we all did overreact to President Obama's executive amnesty, not because it's OK or insignificant, but because we really don't have a solid grasp on just how often he uses the reach of the executive branch to impose his will on the nation. The Daily Signal reports that the White House is getting ready to drop 3,400 new regulations on the nation, and many of them are significant in scope and effect. We're talking about everything from coal rules to restrictions on carbon emissions to curb "climate change."

TAXPAYER ALERT: Big Wind Urging Congress for Yet Another Bailout

“Industrial wind can NEVER provide modern reliable, dispatchable, baseload power; has cost far more jobs than it creates; and is destroying the very environment they claim they wish to save.”
