A Michigan elementary school Principal took group of 5th grade students on a field trip to hear a speech by an African American rocket scientist. The only problem: he only took the black students. This incident for this blogger has much larger revelations other than the obvious. This Principal is the prototypical example of the dangers of a left wing education. A huge problem among blacks specifically is their ability to practice discrimination and segregation while simultaneously preaching "equality" and "inclusion". Dicken Elementary School Mike Madison took a group on black students, part of a group known as the African American Lunch Bunch to hear a black rocket scientist speak. The fact that there is such a group at a such a racially diverse school is troubling. Needless to say, the outrage would be manic if a white organization existed and engaged in the same exclusion of black students. In the black left wing mind, discrimination and racism are acceptable ...

A little over a year ago, I was having a discussion with some liberal friends about various issues. At that time, the US dollar was being battered in the global market and was at an all-time low against the Euro. What a difference a year makes. Thanks to European debt crisis and its epicenter Greece, the Euro is headed very fast in the other direction.

The Greek sovereign debt rating was recently downgraded by Moody's and will quite possibly face a second downgrade. The EU in cooperation with the International Monetary Fund unveiled a temporary lifeline with a $1 trillion rescue package which may just be a short term fix. Greece is still saddled with a crippling business climate, slow economic growth and huge entitlement spending. The sad reality is that Greece is just the sque...

The revolution is being televised! The new Mexican Illegal immigrant revolution that is. Turn on any of the major networks and you'll see for yourself. Tens of thousands of mostly illegal immigrants rioting, breaking windows and throwing bottles at police. The reason for the outrage? Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed a controversial immigration bill which makes it a state crime to lack immigration papers and requires police to determine whether people are in the country legally. The bill has sparked a firestorm of controversy including violent street protest and calls for boycotts. Arizona has been under siege for quite sometime. A large infiltration of illegal immigrants and drugs has made the state the kidnapping capital of the US. The federal governments foot dragging has forced the State to take matters into its own hands. Curiously enough, president Obama has asked for an investigation into the constitutionality of the bill. What makes his inquiry ridiculous is that not on...
