Homeland Security Scales Back Domestic Terror Probes
The Pub: This sounds weak. They are cutting back and even eliminating portions of investigating domestic terrorism due to a report that came out 4 months into Obama’s administration in which conservatives criticized it? This is one of those things I can’t wrap my head around? Since when has Obama and his administration ever done anything or not done anything due to conservative criticism?

Just as a refresher, Bush tried getting Congress to reign in Freddie and Fannie as well as other Republicans. Reid and others said “no, no. They are fine the way they are…in fact lets open them up even more”. How frustrating...
Romney? Nope! | Unified Patriots
The Pub: Great article…keep reading it. Romney is not and has not ever been on my list of candidates that I want to see ticket. via Romney? Nope!. Mitt Romney is polling higher than all the other Republican candidates for the presidency. What does that mean at this point? Nothing and I’m about to break Reagan’s rule of not speaking ill of another Republican. Sorry, Mr. President, got to do it. It’s not my fault if Romney claims to be a Republican.

Sarah Palin’s tour a rolling menace – Breaking Traffic Laws
The Pub: OMG..This is becoming so comical. There is a whole article here on how Sarah Palin’s entourage is breaking traffic laws. Really?? This is all they got.
