  • Keep America Safe

    Last Saturday, thousands of people took to the streets of New York City to protest Attorney General Eric Holder's outrageous plan to transfer 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other admitted war criminals to the United States for trial in a civilian court in New York City. The ...

  • Litchfield to rip the yellow ribbons from the old oak tree

    I saw this story this morning and can't believe that the borough of Litchfield, CT has voted to remove the yellow ribbons tied to the oak trees on the town green. Everyone knows that these yellow ribbons serve as reminders for those waiting for the return of a loved one or in support of our military troops who are temporarily unable to come home. ...

  • The Huge Mistake: Why cap and trade would be bad for the environment and the economy

    The EPA is trying to censor these EPA attorneys by threatening them and demanding they remove the YouTube video that is critical of Cap and Trade. This video, produced by EPA enforcement attorneys speaking on their own personal behalf, explains why cap-and-trade, while applicable for acid rain, will not work for climate change. It explains why ...

  • PJB: Bush's Black List

    CTCIC Update This article by Pat Buchanan shows why he should be the next President. As you might recall, this author ran a draft Buchanan campaign last year, and one day I got a call with a gruff voice on the phone saying he was not going to run. It was a sad day.   I have not found a clearer explanation ...

  • Re: Obama's Pastor: "God Damn America"

    After finally denouncing his pastor for the racial divisive and anti-American comments, Obama also seems to have changed his mind about wearing a U.S. flag lapel pin. In just the last few day's he has been spotted, ''wearing his patriotism on his sleeve''. Maybe the next time he is in public and the National Anthem is played he will change ...

  • Obama's Pastor: "God Damn America"

    God damn America? I couldn't believe this when I saw it. Barack Obama's pastor, for more than twenty years, accuses the US government of supplying Americans with drugs and preached the US deserved the 911 attacks, only days after, because of our foreign policies. I was willing to give Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, the benefit ...

  • Barack calls Hillary at 3:00 AM

    For those of you who missed it, here is last weeks Saturday Night Live skit with Barack calling Hillary during a crisis at 3:00 am. A spoof on the ads both candidates ran last week in Texas. http://www.redlasso.com/ClipPlayer.aspx?id=bdbbcc2f-7c8f-428f-996b-c8e7f954bbf2 Richard

  • Huckabee's Concession Speech

    I was not a huge Huckabee fan, but I must say he is an incredible speaker. Talk about a great orator, Huckabee's concession speech to McCain last night was nothing short of magnificent. Speaking from his heart, without a script, this man raises the bar for those who aspire to be this nations next president and personifies the words ...

  • In-State Tuition Rates for Illegal Aliens?

    Representative Felipe Reinoso, D-Bridgeport, has introduced a bill that would give illegal aliens living in Connecticut the same in-state tuition rate as legal residents. A similar bill has also been introduced by Senator Looney, 11th District, New Haven. Both are presented ...
