Governor Brown is at it again. In the works is another new, monstrous tax. A new $600 million dollar per year tax to grow even larger in subsequent years. (Quick calculation: that is $150 per year for each man woman and child in Oregon) It will be sold as a “Cap and Trade” carbon tax. Continue reading “Gov. Brown Conjures Up Massive Carbon Tax Plan”

Hypocrisy stands at the pinnacle of the sins that liberals most disdain. So it’s fair game to compare the free ride they gave to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg with their searching the archives to pillory every word ever written by Supreme Court nominee John Roberts.
Liberal commentators and U.S. senators, who are salivating at the upcoming interrogation of Roberts, never asked Ginsburg about her extremist views spelled out in her lengthy paper trail. The senators didn’t have to do much research; I made it easy for them by publishing her words in my July 1993 Phyllis Schlafly Report.

Hard as it is to believe, airline travel recently became even more unpleasant. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) employees being required to work without pay for the duration of the government shutdown resulted in many TSA workers calling in sick. The outbreak of “shutdown flu” among TSA employees forced some large airports to restrict the number of places mandatory TSA screenings were performed, making going through screening even more time-consuming and providing one more reason to shut down the TSA. Continue reading “Shut Down the TSA!”

We often hear members of law enforcement state the dangers of marijuana to ridiculous levels. But the Attorney General of South Carolina has perhaps said the most ridiculous statement yet.
South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson referred to marijuana as “the most dangerous drug” in America. Wilson’s comments were part of a press conference where several other politicians, law enforcement officials and doctors spoke out against a proposed bill that would legalize medical marijuana in South Carolina. Continue reading “South Carolina Attorney General Calls Marijuana the ‘Most Dangerous Drug’ in America”

Even if you have deactivated all of your social media accounts – or never had any in the first place – your privacy is not guaranteed. Continue reading “Here’s How YOU Can Be Profiled Even If You’ve NEVER Used Social Media”
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has ruled that Jerry Sandusky be re-sentenced on the basis that in 2012 the judge improperly imposed mandatory minimum terms that sent the former Penn State football coach away for 30-60 years.
In the same ruling, the court rejected Sandusky’s appeal for a new trial. Sandusky, now 75, was convicted by a Centre County Jury of 45 counts of sexual molestation and remains imprisoned in Western Pennsylvania. Continue reading “Sandusky needs to be resentenced, court says”
A Colorado man is expected to make a full recovery after suffocating a mountain lion to death when the animal attacked him while he was running.
According to The Coloradoan, the man was jogging on a path in Horsetooth Mountain Park near Fort Collins when the 80-pound animal appeared from behind and began attacking him.
